## Source Registry

- USDA AMS Livestock, Poultry, and Grain Market News / LMR Datamart (public-market-report): Auction price, receipt, weight-class, volume, and market-report signals for cattle sale barns and regional price pages. Citation boundary: A reported auction-price signal for the report date and venue, not a guaranteed current transaction price or promise of future bid.
- USDA NASS QuickStats (agricultural-context): Feed, crop, inventory, and agricultural context used to frame cattle-market operating conditions. Citation boundary: A public agricultural context source, not a parcel-level feed-cost quote or individual operation certification.
- USDA MARS market reports (public-market-report): Verified breed, class, volume, and buyer-demand signals where USDA MARS publishes cattle market report detail. Citation boundary: A reported market-news signal for a report window, not a guaranteed real-time bid or packer commitment.
- USDA APHIS animal health and disease alerts (animal-health-signal): Disease alert and animal-health context that may affect movement, buyer demand, and operational risk routing. Citation boundary: A disease and regulatory signal, not a veterinary diagnosis, herd-health determination, or movement permit.
- U.S. Drought Monitor (risk-signal): Regional drought and forage-stress context for timing, liquidation, feed, and supply pressure questions. Citation boundary: A regional drought-stress signal, not parcel-level forage, water, or supply certification.
- NOAA National Weather Service (weather-signal): Weather alert and forecast context used to frame hauling, sale timing, and regional operating risk. Citation boundary: A weather signal, not a guarantee that conditions are safe for a specific route, load, sale, or property.
- CME Group and Yahoo Finance livestock and feed futures context (market-context): Feeder cattle, live cattle, corn, and related futures signals used as market background. Citation boundary: A market-context indicator, not financial, trading, hedging, or investment advice.
- U.S. Energy Information Administration diesel prices (cost-signal): Diesel and fuel-cost context used in hauling and market-access reasoning. Citation boundary: A regional fuel-cost signal, not a carrier quote, delivered fuel invoice, or route-specific cost guarantee.
- EPA ECHO (regulatory-context): CAFO permit, facility, and environmental-compliance context that may affect operation footprint and diligence questions. Citation boundary: A public regulatory screening signal, not a final environmental, legal, or agency determination.
- OpenStreetMap and parcel context (location-context): Location, road, boundary, parcel, and nearby-place context used to anchor maps, barn profiles, and county routing. Citation boundary: A location anchor, not title work, ownership certification, survey, or official parcel determination.
- Anymal-derived cattle-market aggregates (derived-dataset): County, state, barn, freshness, and route-level rollups computed from public-feeds inputs and static launch exports. Citation boundary: A derived market-intelligence rollup; cite with the underlying source lineage and do not treat it as an official agency record.
- State brand-inspection and livestock agencies (regulatory-reference): State-specific brand inspection, ownership-transfer, sale, and cattle-movement references cited by learn pages. Citation boundary: A pointer to authoritative agency rules, not a real-time Anymal feed or legal determination; verify current requirements with the agency.
- State agriculture and livestock reference pages (regulatory-reference): State agriculture and livestock pages used as reference material for cattle movement, inspection, and market context. Citation boundary: A reference to agency-published material, not a guarantee that a user-specific sale, movement, or document is compliant.
