Market comments — USDA reporter

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 10.00-15.00 lower. Feeder heifers 2.00-6.00 lower. Steer and heifer calves 15.00-20.00 lower. Demand moderate. Slaughter cows 7.00-12.00 lower. Slaughter bulls 11.00 lower. Drought conditions now encompass all of Oklahoma, with 100% of the state experiencing at least D1 moderate drought. Severe drought now covers 70% of the state. The persistent heat continues to worsen these conditions, with little relief expected over the next 10 days.

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.
