Not enough comparable offerings from two weeks ago for an adequate market comparison. Demand was moderate to good for the short supply of feeders coming off of summer range.

One grade step is worth $13.21/cwt here — about $95 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
Nothing removed and nothing rounded — the same lots as the USDA report, with per-head values added. Grouped by class and set lightest first; USDA files them in sale-ring order.

This sale against other markets
Nebraska weighted averages
One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Nebraska auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
Not enough comparable offerings from two weeks ago for an adequate market comparison. Demand was moderate to good for the short supply of feeders coming off of summer range.
