Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 5.00 lower, heifers under 600 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher, over 600 lbs unevenly steady. Good demand remains for all weights of steers and heifers yet cattle feeders slowed in their pursuit of the feeder cattle market as April Live Cattle went off the board and the front month of June is much lower than the current cash market. Turnout time is quickly approaching, keeping demand for grass suitable cattle red hot.

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.
