This report is a weekly cattle auction, held at St. Joseph Stockyards, located in St Joseph, MO. This report includes feeder cattle. All reported livestock are graded and reported according to official USDA live animal standards and guidelines. The report is disseminated according to USDA format guidelines and instructions, under the voluntary price collection and reporting authority of USDA AMS.
This report should be released every week as long as receipts are available to report. Light summer receipts may cause this report to skip some weeks during the summer.
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.
