North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

Compared to last week: Too few feeder cattle offered this week, only 1 reported auction, to make accurate price comparisons but a lower undertone was evident. Moderate demand is all as the volatility seen in the cattle futures complex has made it extremely difficult for cattle producers to make marketing decisions. Most cattle producers are refusing to sell cattle at this price level and are taking a wait and see approach to the market.

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.
