Price trend
950–999 lb Medium and Large 1 steers — head-weighted average $/cwt by sale date, last 12 months.
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.

Too few feeder steers and heifers offered two weeks ago to compare with this week's much larger offering. Good to very good demand for this nice, summertime offering of long strings of yearlings. Many full loads and multiple load lots, as there were several longs strings including one consignment of nearly 1,000 steers. Flesh conditions were varied, from light and attractive, to cattle that were carrying a tick too much. The market was active, the lighter fleshed cattle were easy to sell while those carrying too much flesh was harder to find bids for. CME Live and Feeder Cattle futures made gains today, after last week's decline, but with cash fed cattle in the 240s cattle feeders are concerned about the coming months.
