North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

Mon Dec 11, 2023
USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Bismarck, ND (LS-BM)
Receipts 8,762Last week 7,969Year ago 10,422

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 2.00 to 7.00 higher, instances of 8.00 to 10.00 higher. Improved demand for feeder cattle this week as cattle feeders were willing to chase the market a little. The cash fed cattle market slipped into the high 160s and now has converged with the spot futures month of December. Auction markets will not host feeder cattle auctions until the start of the new year.

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.
