*** Close *** Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers unevenly steady in a light comparison. Heavier weight feeder steers appear some cheaper on paper but quality not as attractive and it was difficult to fill loads. Demand good for feeder cattle despite the downward pressure in cattle futures today. Steer calves 10.00-20.00 higher. Heifer calves 5.00-15.00 higher. Demand very good for calves. Heavy rains hit last week but now the spicket has been shut off and high pressure has set in over much of the state. Temps in the mid 90's to 100 and heat indexes expected to be well into the 100's for well over a week. Grass pasture has improved following these rains.

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.
