Todays sale is coming from the Texas Cattle Raisers Association Convention in Ft. Worth, TX. This week's offering featured numerous attractive loads of yearling cattle coming off winter forage and beef dairy cross cattle with multiple rounds of vaccinations and optimal flesh conditions. The bulk of the feeder cattle were located in the Southeastern and South Central Regions, with the balance coming out of the North Central, West, and Northeast/Upper Midwest regions. Current deliveries are cattle that will deliver up to 14 days from the sale day, and up to and including April 25, 2025.

Source: USDA AMS · Montgomery, AL. 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.
