Only 1 reported auction this week as other auctions were closed for the holiday week. Moderate to good demand for feeders after the large winter storm that brought up to a foot and a half of snow and rain and freezing rain. Much larger auction receipts expected next week as auction markets return to their normal weekly sale schedules.

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 South Dakota barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
