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 10.00-15.00 lower. Feeder heifers 15.00-20.00 lower except 850-900lbs 5.00 higher. There was a draft of 301 head of heifers 851lbs that brought 312.00 and that was the high light of the day. Stocker type heifers weighing 600-700lbs sold steady. Quality and condition did play a role in today's downturn in the market as cattle were either summertime feeders or good cattle were fat, fleshy, or full. Steer and heifer calves over 500lbs unevenly steady, under 500lbs to light a test to set a trend but a lower undertone noted. Most front-end cattle, Tuesday, were un-weaned and no trend to set on those classes of cattle. Tuesday's supply included 59% un-weaned cattle. Its August and buyers are being selective on buying calves in this heat.
