Nebraska Weekly Livestock Auction Summary

Compared to last week on comparable offerings of yearling steers over 800 lbs sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher and yearling heifers over 800 lbs sold steady to 8.00 higher. No recent test on weaned fall calves but a sharply higher undertone was noted. All auctions were snappy this week, buyers bid like there wasn't going to be anymore cattle to procure. With the out-front months on the feeder cattle board in the low 180's and corn slipping into the mid-6.00 range buyers are thinking big bucks coming their way. Game show "Press Your Luck" comes to mind as cattlemen are playing and hoping no "whammies" wipe out their profits. Spotty, much needed rain showers across different areas of the state. Along with the new normal of hail and strong winds. Several hay producers are on second cutting of alfalfa with the grass hay guys getting started on native prairie grass. Tonnage remains a little off from last year.

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.
