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 last week: Feeder steers over 800lbs unevenly steady, under 800lbs 5.00-15.00 higher. After last week's stout run in the heavyweight steer market, grazing steer prices caught up this week. Feeder heifers over 750lbs unevenly steady, under 750lbs 5.00-10.00 higher. Steer calves over 500lbs 5.00-10.00 higher, under 500lbs steady. Last week, five-weight steers were only modestly higher while flyweight steers were dollars higher; this week was the exact opposite. Heifer calves were 5.00 to 10.00 higher. While no trend will be set on unweaned cattle, it was noteworthy that unweaned steer calves were lower, while unweaned heifer calves were higher. The steer calf market started the day inconsistent, with some weight classes trading lower and others higher, but improved as the sale progressed. The heifer calf market, on the other hand, started strong and remained that way throughout the sale. Tuesday's calf sale included several drafts of brahma cross steers and heifers, thin fleshed, that sold close to number 1 money.
