About Feeder Cattle (GF)

About Feeder Cattle

Feeder Cattle are young calves (typically weighing 650 to 850 lbs) that have been weaned and are being sent to feedlots to be fattened for slaughter.

Primary Usage

They represent the intermediate stage of the beef supply chain, serving as the 'input' for feedlot operators who will inevitably sell them as Live Cattle.

Market Dynamics & Key Drivers

  • Feed Costs: Feeder cattle prices are inversely correlated with corn prices. When feed is cheap, feedlots pay more for calves; when feed is expensive, calf prices drop.
  • Pasture Conditions: Excellent grazing conditions allow ranchers to keep calves on pasture longer, tightening near-term supply.
  • Live Cattle Prices: Expectations for future finished beef prices dictate what feedlots are willing to pay today.
