Compared to last week steer calves sold 10.00 lower. Yearling weight steers in the 800 lbs range sold 3.00 higher with all weights 8.00 lower. Heifers under 500 lbs sold 10.00 higher, 500 to 700 lbs sold 5.00 to 10.00 lower, 700 to 900 lbs sold 8.00 to 10.00 higher. Demand was mostly light at the beginning of the week with moderate, instance good by week's close. Demand for bred cows and heifers was good to very good especially on dispersal lots. Another tough week at area markets as the CME cattle boards continue to sell off long positions and wrecking the lively hood of people in the ag sector as they sell their annual incomes. Maybe the CME cattle boards were too high?? Maybe this is where they price should be at? Who knows for sure, but time will tell. Nebraska feedlot trade lower as it follows the CME live cattle. Dressed sales 5.00 lower at 275.00 and live sales sold steady to 1.00 lower at 174.00 to 175.00.

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.
