Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to the last sale in October, however, feeder classes were in very good demand. Buyers showed a heightened interest in long-weaned (45+ days), preconditioned cattle, especially as fall temperature swings can create health issues in freshly weaned calves. Sale attendance was moderate for this last feeder sale of 2021, but buyer participation was active both in person and online. The next feeder sale is tentatively scheduled for March 18, 2022, but is subject to change. Please check online for the most current and upcoming sale dates.
