DTN COMMENTS:  
Packers are showing some light interest in the Southern Plains, but still 
no cattle have traded. With asking prices firm at $186, packers are going 
to have to get more aggressive if they're going to get any cattle bought 
this week in the South.

NOTE: Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-402-461-3561. All sales will be listed anonymously and organized by 
state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9-day delivery. A weekly 
summary from this data will be posted on the Weekly Cattle Sales Reported 
to DTN page and will be left up for the entire week for reference 
purposes.
