USDA Dickenson, ND Wtd Avg-Stockman's 11/12 20:00 AMS_2099 MARS Stockmen's Livestock Exchange - Dickinson, ND Stockmen's Livestock Exchange-Dickinson,ND Livestock Weighted Average Report for 11/12/2026 - Final Auction This Week Last Reported Last Year ------------------------------------------------------------ Total Receipts: ------------------------------------------------------------ FEEDER CATTLE 4793 4818 5028 Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves 10.00 to 30.00 higher, instances to 40.00 higher on 500 lbs heifers. No recent comparison for the yearling offering. Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers. As the cattle futures complex stopped it's hemorrhaging at the first of the week and posted strong gains, cattle feeders and yearling operators got the dose of confidence they needed to step back up to the plate and take a swing on buying some calves. A nice offering of yearlings, for this late in the season, garnered plenty of attention. The market was very active on all classes. A very nice, large offering of really eye appealing calves, including some full loads, and plenty of smaller packages and ring fulls to let buyers make full loads of. The competition was rather fierce as it was common to see the bids rise 50.00 from where they began. Much demand exists for a replacement quality heifer. Much improved weather and feed yard conditions in feeding country helped to add support to the market as well. Cash fed cattle continue to disappoint, reported sales of 210.00 on 1700 lbs steers in Iowa. --------------------------------------------------------------- FEEDER CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- HEIFERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 13 1006-1048 1029 273-281 277.39 6 1112-1112 1112 250-250 250 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 18 308-313 310 490-545 518.21 70 359-389 376 455-512.5 473.49 95 407-448 425 403-465 444.76 240 454-497 478 396-440 416.5 131 501-537 524 371-399.5 390.61 72 503-531 526 404-435 429.65 Replacement 114 563-584 568 386-392 387.78 Replacement 173 555-598 577 355-377 370.69 100 606-647 625 348-367 356.7 100 606-647 625 348-367 356.7 8 847-847 847 305-305 305 21 877-877 877 315-315 315 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 8 346-346 346 460-460 460 17 418-418 418 410-410 410 5 467-467 467 382.5-382.5 382.5 7 538-538 538 310-310 310 8 802-802 802 290-290 290 STEERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 128 1000-1046 1020 303.5-309.5 305.52 STEERS - Medium 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 21 528-528 528 435-435 435 STEERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 5 306-306 306 645-645 645 43 365-395 387 560-600 577.47 165 402-448 417 504-567.5 537.69 320 450-490 472 474-526 498.45 447 503-547 526 443-490 463.81 483 552-599 576 392-451 433.18 626 600-649 626 375-421 404.8 185 661-691 680 336-391 376.58 65 712-712 712 371-371 371 56 753-753 753 353.5-353.5 353.5 52 815-844 821 336-344 342.26 53 856-896 882 325-331 327.09 108 971-989 980 313.5-313.5 313.5 STEERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 11 340-340 340 535-535 535 10 395-395 395 482.5-482.5 482.5 32 470-481 477 375-430 415.92 5 587-587 587 384-384 384 6 648-648 648 361-361 361 13 753-758 757 339-339 339
