North Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary

Mon Mar 14, 2022

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

Receipts 4,893Last week 0Year ago 0

Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 4.00 higher, feeder heifers under 750 lbs 7.00 to 12.00 higher, over 750 lbs 5.00 higher. Very good demand for light weight, light fleshed steers and heifers suitable for grazing this summer. The market was most active for these types as spring is near and there are few of this class of cattle available. As the fall months of the Feeder Cattle contract are at 180.00 plus, there is great optimism for the coming yearling market in the fall and producers want to have cattle to sell. Auction receipts remain limited as many producers had to sell earlier than normal due to the short feed conditions across 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 North Dakota barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
