USDA Dickenson, ND Wtd Avg-Stockman's 10/01 17:50 AMS_2099 MARS Stockmen's Livestock Exchange - Dickinson, ND Stockmen's Livestock Exchange-Dickinson,ND Livestock Weighted Average Report for 10/01/2026 - Final Auction This Week Last Reported Last Year ------------------------------------------------------------ Total Receipts: ------------------------------------------------------------ FEEDER CATTLE 3066 2406 0 Compared to last week: Only good comparison of yearling feeder steers were those 850-900 lbs 7.00 lower. Yearling feeder heifers 800-900 lbs unevenly steady, over 900 lbs 5.00 to 7.00 lower. Steer calves 450-550 lbs 10.00 to 20.00 lower, other weights not well compared. Too few heifer calves to offer a good comparison. Good demand for this nice offering of yearlings, one consignment of 1,100 head, with many full load lots and multiple load lots. The market was active on the yearlings, but there was pressure on the market as the cash fat cattle trade remains sluggish and the futures contracts aren't adding support. Good demand for calves but the market was not as active as last week. Very muddy yard conditions in cattle feeding country, and now farmer feeders turning their attention to harvest, took a little enthusiasm out of the market to buy a bawling calf. Next reported sale will be Oct. 8, 2026. --------------------------------------------------------------- FEEDER CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- HEIFERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 54 1014-1026 1023 274.5-283 280.25 23 1070-1086 1077 270.5-273.5 272.19 3 1122-1122 1122 264.5-264.5 264.5 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 3 311-311 311 597.5-597.5 597.5 36 366-376 368 487.5-505 494.43 22 405-433 416 491-507.5 498.02 61 459-495 470 440-470 458.05 12 527-527 527 419-419 419 7 644-644 644 358-358 358 40 679-679 679 355-355 355 255 714-746 738 341.5-353.5 352.45 38 772-793 790 322-339 324.62 411 805-848 836 311.25-327.5 314.45 259 859-899 868 295-311 306.25 21 908-918 915 294-297 295.58 43 967-990 975 279.5-287.5 285.64 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 8 834-834 834 310-310 310 5 891-891 891 291-291 291 STEERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 10 1066-1066 1066 281-281 281 STEERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 9 303-328 322 590-620 596.26 7 384-384 384 498-498 498 131 420-436 424 493-519 507.79 248 450-498 487 470-501.5 488.97 226 510-547 526 430-465 453.42 6 593-593 593 403-403 403 10 658-658 658 376-376 376 24 725-725 725 365-365 365 72 750-768 755 349-362 360.41 63 804-828 824 345-356 354.3 33 860-894 871 329-353 344.79 103 913-913 913 337-337 337 20 951-951 951 317-317 317 STEERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 9 449-449 449 410-410 410 7 844-844 844 337.5-337.5 337.5 6 893-893 893 329-329 329 5 975-975 975 303-303 303
