Feeder CattleReceipts 24,655Last week 11,571Year ago 18,832

Slaughter CattleReceipts 850Last week 811Year ago 1,355

Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 900 lbs mostly steady, over 900 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher. Feeder heifers were best compared on those weighing over 700 lbs, 5.00 to 10.00 higher. Very good demand again this week as the cash fed cattle market soared to new all-time historically high prices. Long strings of yearlings offered as more auction markets hosted their summertime BBQ special feeder cattle sales. Order buyers are traveling outside their usual areas to attend these big special sales as feeder cattle sales are more sporadic this time of the year. The market was extremely active as the competition was great as cattle producers are very optimistic about the future months in the cattle market as the cash fed cattle continues to greatly outperform the Live Cattle futures. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 higher, bulls 1.00 to 2.00 higher.

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.
