Feeder CattleReceipts 22,942Last week 54,368Year ago 42,625

Slaughter CattleReceipts 1,763Last week 1,714Year ago 1,661

Compared to last week: Steer calves 5.00 to 10.00 lower, except 500-550 lbs 3.00 to 4.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 lbs steady to 3.00 lower, over 600 lbs 7.00 to 8.00 lower. Yearling feeder steers steady to 3.00 lower, heifers steady to 2.00 lower. Good demand this week again for steer and heifer calves but with the winter storm that struck the central part of the state, causing consignment and auction cancellations, some buyers also chose to pull back in their pursuit of calves to feed. The demand for yearlings stays good but with the winter months of the Live Cattle contract failing to advance from their current levels, cattle feeders don't have a reason to want to give more for the feedyard backgrounded yearlings that are coming to town. The flesh on these cattle is much heavier than the ones that came off grass earlier in the fall and cost of gain is a major concern as feed cost are much higher than last Autumn. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 lower, full decline on the Lean cows, bulls sold with lower undertones.

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.
