Compared to last week: A limited comparison for this last week as many auctions did not host a feeder cattle sale due to the Thanksgiving holiday. Steer calves 1.00 to 3.00 higher, heifer calves 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Yearling feeder steers mostly steady, yearling heifers not well compared. Moderate to good demand for calves on Friday as there were large auctions with many strings of high quality calves in a light to moderate flesh condition. Fewer yearlings offered this week as the supply of yearlings is about cleaned up. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 lower, bulls not well tested but a lower undertone evident.

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