Tennessee cattle markets
Tennessee's cattle sector is centered on cow-calf production, with beef herds spread across Middle Tennessee, the Cumberland Plateau, and East Tennessee. Calves commonly move through local livestock auctions and private sales to stocker operations or feedlots outside the state. Spring calving is common, and sale barns typically see larger runs of weaned calves in the fall, with another marketing period for spring-born or wintered cattle in the spring.
Tennessee cattle market commentary
Compared to last week, feeder steers were unevenly steady with instances of 8.00 higher to 10.00 lower; feeder heifers and feeder bulls were mostly steady to 5.00-10.00 lower. Slaughter cows were mostly steady to 2.00 lower, and slaughter bulls mostly steady.
Market commentary above is quoted from the USDA Market News report.
About this data
These are auction sale prices reported by USDA Market News from livestock auctions across Tennessee, summarized weekly. Feeder cattle are quoted per hundredweight (cwt); breeding and replacement cattle are often quoted per head or per pair. Prices move with the futures market, feed costs, and demand, so confirm current values at your local auction.

Tennessee cattle price frequently asked questions
How much are feeder steers in Tennessee right now?
Feeder steer prices in Tennessee ran from about $253 to $600 per cwt this week, with lighter calves bringing more per hundredweight than heavy yearlings; feeder heifers ran about $213 to $560 per cwt. Prices are from the USDA weekly cattle auction summary for the week ending Aug 1, 2026. Exact prices depend on weight, frame, and quality, shown in the tables above.
Why do lighter cattle cost more per hundredweight?
Buyers usually pay a higher price per pound for lighter calves than for heavy yearlings, a pattern often called the price slide, because lighter cattle have more weight left to gain. That is why a 5-weight steer can post a higher per-cwt price than an 8-weight steer at the same auction.
How often are these cattle prices updated?
USDA Market News publishes Tennessee auction summaries weekly, and this page refreshes after each new report. Auction prices can change from week to week, so check the report date shown above.
