Compared to last week: steer and heifer calves trends were mixed, mostly 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Yearling steers and heifers not well tested. Demand moderate to good, with best demand, as expected being for calves with their full round of preconditioning shots. Shipping conditions have improved as roads have firmed/frozen up over the last week.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.

Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the North Dakota barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
