This is a weekly auction held on Thursday at the New Cambria Livestock Market in New Cambria, Missouri. This auction is a combined sale, with slaughter cattle, cows and bulls, and feeder cattle. The weighted average report includes only feeder cattle; however, the auction report includes all of the livestock sold at the sale. All livestock that are included on these reports are graded and reported according to official USDA live animal standards and guidelines. These reports are organized according to USDA’s format guidelines and instructions, under the Voluntary Price Reporting authority of USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service. This report is released the Friday following the sale. 


Verification Activities: Market information and data is collected throughout the course of the live auction, as the reporter will grade the cattle and record the pertinent information in the reporting tool. Information that the reporter must record for each lot includes the official USDA grade, weight, head count, and selling price. To ensure the accuracy of these reports, each Market Reporter is required to take a written test and apply their skills during an official live animal grading correlation with their supervisor every two years. 

Report Contributors (e.g. Contacts, Producers, etc.): As the reporters attend auctions, they may use this time to visit/communicate with multiple segments of the industry. Buyers, order buyers, backgrounders, small-to-medium feeder operations, hobbyist farmers, large ranchers, auctioneers, and stockyard managers/owners as well as other producers present. This is a great time for the reporter to gain an insight and verify their thoughts about present market conditions.

The New Cambria Livestock Market, LLC is located in North Central Missouri, conveniently located off Highway 36. After the sale is complete, the report is broadcast via the local radio station KRES, as well as the Missouri Department of Agriculture’s recording system where individuals can call in and hear the market recording any time throughout the week. Also, the report is sent to the Glasgow Missourian, a local newspaper.
