West Plains livestock sales reportThe Ozarks Regional Stockyard, West Plains, Mo., reported receipts of 3,200 head May 27, compared to 4,086 head last week and 2,100 head last year, according to the Missouri Department of Agriculture-USDA Market News Service, Jefferson City, Mo. Compared to last week, steers and heifers were steady to $2 higher, with steer yearlings over 850 pounds were $2 to $3 higher. The exception were 550- to 650-pound steers that sold weak to mostly $2 lower than last week's sharp upturn.
