Nebraska Weekly Livestock Auction Summary

USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Kearney, NE (LS-WH)

Compared to last week steer calves under 700 lbs sold mostly 3.00 higher except flyweights sold 9.00 lower. Over 700 lbs sold 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 lbs sold 4.00 to 7.00 lower, 600 to 800 lbs sold steady to 4.00 higher and over 800 lbs sold very uneven. Demand was moderate to good for bawling calves and yearlings with good demand for bred heifers and cows. Buyers continue to be selective and purchase calves with fall vaccinations and uniform. Even though some of these fall vaccinated calves hit the hospital pen they have been healthier overall than calves with springtime shots coming through the auction. Cooler temps in the next few weeks should help freshly wean calves to bunk up and fill their bellies. Nebraska feedlots traded dressed sales 5.00 lower at 282.00 and live sales sold 3.00 to 3.50 lower at 178.00 on negotiated sales. Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving.

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.
