Selling Cattle. When cattle near market finish, Sellers Feedlot contacts the owners to determine sale procedures: cash (dressed or live), grid or forward contract. This standard service is provided to Sellers Feedlot clients. After a marketing method is determined, Sellers Feedlot will negotiate and sell market ready cattle to buyers from area packing plants that visit weekly. Cattle can be sold live or dressed (on the rail) for the following terms:
- Cash: cash prices are negotiated based on market trends.
- Grid: cattle value is established by carcass merit.
- Forward Contract: Some packers will contract cattle for a predetermined price at a later date.
