McAlester livestock sales report

The McAlester Union Livestock Market, McAlester, Okla., reported receipts of 2,700 head Sept. 23, compared to 2,400 head last week and 3,000 head last year, according to the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture-USDA Market News, Oklahoma City, Okla.

Compared to last week, No. 1 stocker and feeder cattle were steady to $2 lower, most loss on heifers. Large numbers of Brahman influenced calves were in the market, and sold $3 to $5 lower. Uncertainty on many fronts drove the sale. There was a good attendance of buyers and active trade on best offerings, slow on balance. Cattle were in thin to medium flesh. Receipts included 46% steers, 41% heifers with 19% cattle over 600 pounds. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady with last week's sale. A total of 445 cows and bulls sold with 65% to packers.
