    May 20, 2026, 4:04 PM EDT. Live cattle futures fell Wednesday, with contracts down $1.52 to $4.10 at midday following a lockout at Cargill's Fort Morgan beef plant, which limits slaughter capacity. Despite the plant's 4,700-head capacity being offline, cattle are expected to be redirected to other plants amid tight slaughter-ready supplies. The Wednesday Fed Cattle Exchange online auction reported no sales on 652 head offered, with bids at $259-$260. Wholesale boxed beef prices were mixed; Choice boxes rose $1.54 to $394.21 while Select increased $1.28 to $394.86. USDA reported federal cattle slaughter at 110,000 head Tuesday, up 3,000 from last week but down 23,103 from the prior year. Feeder cattle futures also declined, with May contracts up slightly.
