Too few feeder cattle offered to make a good market comparison. Feeder cattle offerings were light this week, due to the seasonality of feeder cattle marketing and poor weather early in the week. Demand remains good for light cattle to run on this summers' grass, but the market is weaker now that the futures complex has rolled back substantially. Cash fed cattle market was lower as well, as the futures complex weighed too heavy on the market for it to maintain it's historically high prices.

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.
