One trend I have seen is for order buyers to be calling with light weight calves. I have been saying the opposite-to buy heavy feeders 850# +. I...

I am somewhat familiar with them and it would surprise me if they had any traders working there being that they are a IB of RJO for mostly...
It really isn't a matter of drought. The mountains that supply Denver's water had a great year for snow. It is the fact that the greater front...
