Market comments — USDA reporter

No comparison to last week due to no sale but slaughter steers and heifers were sharply higher with much higher packer inquiry today and a good offering of high quality steers and heifers this week. Holstein slaughter steers were also trending much higher. Cows were unevenly steady with bulls trending higher. All classes of feeder calves were significantly higher today with good groups of fancy and value added feeders offered and active buyer participation today,

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.
