Market comments — USDA reporter

Compared to last week: Feeder steers mostly steady to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers mostly steady to 2.00 lower. Demand moderate for feeder cattle. Boxed beef prices moved lower this week after many weeks of holding steady. Thus live cattle prices pushed lower on moderate movement. Steer calves steady to 4.00 lower, most decline on heavier weights. Heifer calves sold 3.00-8.00 lower. Rains again moved across the state this week, helping to improve the drought situation in many areas. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher. Demand good for cows despite the continue heavy movement of cows to market.

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.
