As filed

Compared to the last sale on 10/03/2024: Feeder steers 3.00-7.00 higher. Feeder heifers lightly tested for current FOB and few mostly steady to firm. Demand moderate to good. Weather continues to be dry across much of the south central and west regions. Rain fall is badly needed and future forecast shows very limited chances. Wheat planting and corn harvest are under way in many areas of the country. Supply included 71% from South Central, 10% North Central, 15% from the South East, <1% from the North East and 4% from the West, Current delivery is 14 days from the last day of the video and is up to and including October 31, 2024. Deliveries are Current thru July 2025.

Source: USDA AMS · Oklahoma City, OK. Prices are as filed, F.O.B. at origin, with the buyer taking freight — they are not comparable to a spot ring price and never enter a barn average. Weights are USDA’s estimates — these cattle had not been weighed when they sold. Delivery months differ between lots; a price for one month is not a price for another. Head is summed from the lots as reported.
