Demand was mostly good for calves and feeders with moderate to good demand for bred cattle. Cold, dry weather wind continued most of the week. With just a tick of snow in some areas last Friday. We all know that the winter is the best time for a drought! Lets hope that mother nature will give us some ample moisture come spring. Nebraska negotiated cash feedlot live sales sold steady to 1.00 higher from 137.00 to 138.00 and dressed sales steady at 218.00.

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.
