Feeder CattleReceipts 43,734Last week 1,927Year ago 36,103

Slaughter CattleReceipts 1,713Last week 90Year ago 2,114

Compared to two weeks ago: Steer calves 3.00 to 5.00 higher, heifer calves 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Yearling steers steady to 3.00 higher, heifers 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Very good demand for calves and yearlings as all auction locations returned to their normal sale schedules after the Thanksgiving break. As the cash fed cattle market moved higher, 157.00-159.00, the feeder cattle market got a boost as well. Feeder cattle producers in East River, SD are now in full swing of marketing their spring born calves and the auctions are hosting very large auctions. Cattle feeders were willing to chase the feeder market a little more as the fat market is moving to levels that the futures market didn't predict would come until spring. Auctions will be large as those who like to sell before the end of the year only have a couple more weeks to do so before the Christmas holiday, which sees most locations shut down for a full two weeks. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 lower, except Lean cows 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.
