Slaughter CattleReceipts 130Last week 3,840Year ago 180

Compared to last week: Steer calves unevenly steady, heifer calves steady to 4.00 higher. Yearling feeder steers mostly steady, heifers steady to 3.00 lower. Moderate to good demand for calves, much lighter offering this week due to the Thanksgiving holiday as most auction markets don’t hold feeder cattle sales this week. Good demand for yearling steers and heifers, especially after the friendly Cattle On Feed report came out. Much larger auction receipts expected for next week as all the auction markets will resume their normal sale schedules. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher, bulls 2.00 lower.

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.
