Receipts 7,366Last week 5,664Year ago 10,273

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers. As the arctic temps left the region, cattle feeders were able to more easily receive incoming feeder cattle this week, which helped to support the market.

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.
