Receipts 1,788Last week 26,392Year ago 33,482

Only 1 reported auction this week as most locations did not host a feeder cattle auction over the Thanksgiving holiday week. Very good demand for the limited feeder cattle offered. Much larger receipts next week as more cow/calf producers East River ship their spring born calves to town, as is usual for producers from the eastern half of the state.

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.
