North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Bismarck, ND (LS-BM)
Receipts 10,083Last week 7,339Year ago 11,164

Compared to last week: Steer calves under 450 lbs 10.00 to 20.00 lower, over 450 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 lower, except 450-500 lbs 5.00 higher. Heifer calves 3.00 to 5.00 higher, instances of 7.00 to 10.00 higher on 450-550 lbs. Good demand for steer and heifer calves, yet the market was not near as active on the light weight steers as it was a week ago. There is still great interest in buying lightweight calves, but the market cooled, especially on the lightweight steers. 190.00 cash fed cattle helped to support the feeder cattle market, but the back months at 178.00 to 180.00 is causing some concern.

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.
