Market comments — USDA reporter

Compared to the last feeder cattle auction two weeks ago, the best test on steers calves were the 550-600 lb steers selling 2.00-5.00 higher with the 500-550 and 600-750 lb steers trading with a firm to higher undertone. Feeder heifers weighing 600-700 lbs sold steady to firm with other weights too lightly tested. There were three pot loads of 600-650 lb heifers with good weighing conditions and a nice offering of 5 weight steers all selling with good demand.

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.
