Not enough comparable offerings for a market comparison. Demand was good for the short supply of calves and feeder cattle. Moderate to good demand was noted for the replacement cattle auction last Saturday. The best demand was for young calving cows. There continues to be quite a few older cows open and bred making there way to town. As of this writing feedlot sales remain inactive but the packer did throw around a few bids at steady money on Thursday. Most feedlots are priced higher than last weeks 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 Nebraska barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
