North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

Receipts 9,408Last week 1,407Year ago 13,803

Compared to last week: A large run of feeder steers and heifers offered this week, too few a week ago to offer a good comparison. As the weather cleared, cattle producers were able to get their stock shipped to town. Very good demand remains for light cattle to background, good cattle for those heavier cattle bound for finishing yards.

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.
