Reading this report
What does "Medium and Large 1" mean?
USDA feeder grades describe frame size and muscle thickness, not quality of the individual animal. "Medium and Large" is the frame score; the number is muscle (1 = heaviest muscled). "Medium and Large 1–2" pens mix both muscle scores — common across the Southeast.
What is $/cwt?
Dollars per hundredweight — per 100 lb of animal. A 500-lb calf at $450/cwt brings 5 × $450 = $2,250. Lighter cattle usually bring more per cwt but less per head.
Why are some prices per head?
Bred cows, cow-calf pairs, and some replacement classes sell by the head, not by weight. We show those exactly as USDA reports them — a $/head figure is never converted into $/cwt on this site.
Where do these numbers come from?
From the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service's Livestock Market News — federal reporters at the sale. We publish each report in full and link the official USDA document at the top of the page.
Compared to the last tested auction from three weeks ago, steer calves under 500 lbs traded steady with the sharp advance seen at the previous sale, 500-600 lbs 3.00-5.00 higher, and yearling steers over 600 lbs 5.00-10.00 higher. Heifers calves sold steady to 5.00 higher, and yearling heifers sold with a higher undertone with few good comparisons from three weeks ago. A really good run of cattle for a June sale in this area when there is this much green grass available, and the offering included seven pot loads of yearlings. Demand good and the supply moderate to heavy.
