Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 6.00 to 12.00 higher. Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers as the cash fed cattle market reached new all-time high, record prices. Cattle feeders are very eager to get cattle placed on feed as their outgoing cattle were very profitable. Grass yearlings are starting to be offered and the market is incredibly active as buyers are willing to compete very heavily and chase the market a long ways to secure these highly desirable cattle. Yearlings that have been fed in a yard are also highly sought after, dependent upon flesh condition.

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.
