Compared to last week: Steer calves steady to 4.00 lower, except 400-450 lbs 8.00 lower, heifer calves unevenly steady except 450-500 lbs

10.00 to 15.00 lower. Yearling feeder steers steady to 1.00 lower, heifers unevenly steady. Good demand for steer and heifer calves this

week as there were many long strings of high quality, ranch raised calves in the auctions. The calf market was under pressure however as

feed costs and overall economic uncertainty are weighing on cattle feeders' minds. Cash fed cattle continue to outperform the spot month of

the Live Cattle futures, as they have for a good part of the year, but without the board breaking through to make new highs it's hard for cattle

feeders to be as bullish as they were this summer. The demand for yearlings is still very good, as fewer of those cattle still remain to be sold

as the grass cattle have been pulled and shipped to town already, leaving only the feedyard backgrounded ones still to sell. The Feeder Cattle

futures are well of their contract highs still, again giving a signal to cattle feeders to be more cautious with their outlook. Corn harvest is well

underway, and quickly progressing, as the dry weather allows farmers to get their crop out quickly and has them thinking about getting some

calves in their yards to start on feed. Slaughter cows 2.00 to 3.00 lower, except Lean cows 7.00 to 8.00 lower, bulls 6.00 lower. S

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.
