The first auction of 2023 was met with much anticipation and delivered a very bullish market report.

Started off the new year on a strong market with aggressive bidding on all classes. Region 3/4/5/6 Feeder Steers were steady to $6 higher on lighter weights and $3 to $10 higher on heavier weights. Heifers were also steady to $5 higher on all weights. Region 1 & 2 Feeder Steers were in short supply but were met with aggressive bidding. Strong showing for Beef Dairy Crosses moving out $15 to $25 higher than our last auction. Calves from all regions were $15 to $30 higher on lighter weights as much of the country’s grazing areas have received welcomed moisture.
