Market comments — USDA reporter

Compared to last week: Feeder steers over 750lbs 5.00-10.00 higher, under 750lbs 5.00-7.00 lower. Feeder heifers over 700lbs 10.00-15.00 higher, under 700lbs 3.00-8.00 lower. Steer calves very uneven. Heifer calves over 500lbs 7.00-8.00 higher, under 500lbs uneven. The heavier-weight feeder market posted nice gains this week on good buyer demand and increased competition. Stocker type cattle traded slightly lower as limited grazing opportunities continued to weigh on demand. The calf market, on the other hand, struggled to establish a clear trend, with prices uneven throughout the week. Condition and quality continue to play a significant role in buyer demand. Slaughter cows 2.00-7.00 lower. Lean cows steady. Slaughter bulls 4.00 lower. CME live and feeder cattle futures posted solid gains this week, with both markets trending higher and gaining positive momentum.

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.
