Market comments — USDA reporter

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but slaughter steers and heifers were steady today with light packer interest but a good offering of steers and heifers today. Holstein slaughter steers were trending higher along with Dairy/Beef steers with active bidding and high quality Holsteins and Dairy/Beef steers. Cows were steady to lower and bulls mostly steady with high dressing bulls selling higher. Feeder calves were steady with lighter weight feeders higher and lots of buyer interest this week.

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.
