Compared to last week, steers traded mostly steady, with 6 and 7 weight steers trading sharply higher. Heifers traded 2.00 to 4.00 higher. This week's offering included 11 potloads of nice quality cattle, giving buyers something to build around. A majority of the offering consisted of 6 and 7 weight steers. Slaughter cattle were not well tested. Cattle traded on a heavy supply, with a good demand. The next feeder calf sale will be held January 16th, starting at 11 a.m.

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.
