As filed

Compared to the last sale, 4/16-17/2025: Feeder steers in a light comparison near steady. Feeder heifers also in a light comparison of Current FOB trades were sharply higher. Demand moderate to good but seller interest remains very good. Heavy rains falling across the wheatbelt, erasing much of the drought. Slaughter cattle prices continue to post record highs and this keeps feedyards current. Supply included 60 percent from South Central; <1 percent North East; 3 percent North Central; 31 percent South East; and 5 percent from the West. Deliveries are current through December 2025. Current delivery is 14 days from the last day of the sale and is up to and including May 15, 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.
