North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

Mon Nov 9, 2020

USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Bismarck, ND (LS-BM)

Receipts 11,308Last week 10,213Year ago 16,077

Compared to last week: Steer calves 5.00 to 6.00 higher, except 450-500 lbs steady, heifer calves 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Very good demand for calves this week after the large advances seen early week in the CME Live and Feeder Cattle futures. Cattle feeders were feeling better about the coming months of the fed cattle market as the futures finally found some strength and moved higher. Large auction receipts as cow/calf producers had a good week to get their cattle gathered and shipped to town without any winter storms to interfere.

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