USDA Livestock, Poultry & Grain Market News · Federal-State Market News Service, Sioux Falls, SD (LS-SF)

Slaughter CattleReceipts 956Last week 1,753Year ago 1,687

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers steady to 3.00 higher in a narrow test. Feeder cattle offerings much reduced this week as severely cold weather set back in again with temps falling to the teens below zero along with blowing snow late week making country roads difficult to travel, along with some locations that traditionally do not host a sale this week due to the Black Hills Stock Show running. Demand was good, for all weights, as there was new life breathed into the cattle futures contracts as the annual cattle inventory report showed lower supplies of feeder cattle and cows. Larger auction receipts expected next week as the weather moderates. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 higher, bulls too few to test.

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.
