Just starting to get into the fall calf run this week. The next several weeks their will be a lot of mostly bawling calves heading to new homes. Buyers continue to seek calves with precondition shots as they usually have less health problems at weaning. Light to moderate rain showers across the Cornhusker state mid-week. Rain reports from .50 to near 5.00 inches in some areas stopping harvest in its track. However, many are not complaining as it put moisture in the soil and helps clean the dust out of the air. Cash feedlot sales in Nebraska range from mostly 122.00 to 124.00 live and 196.00 dressed.

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.
