Compared to last Thurs, not enough stocker or feeder cattle last week for accurate trends. Feeder cattle futures bought the fact following the screwworm confirmation on Wednesday, with gains of $10.40 to the $10.75 limit. The CME Feeder Cattle Index was down another $4.93 on June 1 to $359.21. Slaughter beef type turn-out returning to feed cows 2.00-5.00 higher. Dairy slaughter cows 1.00-4.00 lower. Slaughter bulls weak. Late on Wednesday evening, the USDA confirmed a case of the New World Screwworm in South Texas after testing a suspected case in a 3-week old calf in Zavala county. It's important to remember there should be no food safety concerns associated with the screwworm.

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.
