Market comments — USDA reporter

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady except for a few spots 4.00-5.00 lower than last weeks higher market, specifically on the 600-650 lb steers and 500-550 lb heifers. A load of yearling heifers coming off grass sold with a firm to higher undertone but no recent sales to compare to. The quality was good with some top producers calves in town, most of the cattle were in moderate flesh. Supply was moderate and demand was good, very good for 400-500 lb steers. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 1.00 higher.

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.
