Nebraska Weekly Livestock Auction Summary

Mon Apr 22, 2019

USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Kearney, NE (LS-WH)

Receipts 15,569Last week 20,921Year ago 0

Compared to last week, steers under 600 lbs sold mostly steady to 2.00 lower, over 600 lbs sold steady to 5.00 lower. Heifers sold 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Even though the market was lower this week demand was good at all reporting auctions. Quite a few of this weeks cattle would have been sold a couple weeks ago but the winter weather delayed the marketing. With auctions sales going to a biweekly sales routine farmer/feeders and order buyers chased the lots of cattle suited for summer turn out hoping to fill pastures with any weight of cattle that is in the flesh condition for summer turnout. Some of the light weight 700 lbs cattle are fitting that bill and will be heading to greener pastures instead of eating chopped grass from a bunk. Area feedlots traded harvest steers and heifers at lower money as the CME cattle boards fell out of bed and traded sharply lower Wednesday and Thursday. Live sales sold 3.00 to 5.00 lower from 125.00-127.00 and dressed sales sold mostly 3.00 lower at 205.00.

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