Read before the tables

USDA has not filed a complete North Dakota week recently — steers last on Jun 8, 74 days ago; heifers on Jun 8, 74 days ago. The prices below are what was reported then, not what cattle are worth this week.

They are shown because they are the last real trade USDA published here, and a reader is better served by a dated figure than by an empty page. For a current market, the region ladder and the neighbouring states below are trading now.
