# Dr. Derrell Peel Shares Regional Feeder Cattle Prices - Oklahoma Farm Report

> Oklahoma State Extension economist Derrell Peel reviewed regional feeder cattle prices for the first three weeks of April, using 500-pound M/L No. 1 steers. Nebraska averaged a high of $410.01/cwt and Mississippi a low of $362.66/cwt, a spread of about 11.5 percent. He tied the regional differences to local supply and to cattle moving toward concentrated feedlots in the Plains.
