USDA South Dakota Weekly Auction Summary

USDA South Dakota Weekly Auction Summary 06/30 07:10 AMS_2027 MARS South Dakota Weekly Cattle Auction Summary -, Livestock Weighted Average Report for 06/23/2025 - Final Summary This Week Last Reported Last Year ------------------------------------------------------------ Total Receipts: ------------------------------------------------------------ SLAUGHTER CATTLE 887 1164 668 FEEDER CATTLE 6846 13422 0 Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 5.00 higher, heifers unevenly steady. A lighter offering of feeder cattle as we have entered the summer season where sale schedules turn to more of a biweekly schedule. Demand continues very good for yearlings, as cattle feeders that need to fill their pens know full well that if they don't get their needs met on that particular day, they might miss out. A lower fat cattle market, around 230.00-233.00, as packers have reduced their daily slaughter totals and were able to take some market leverage back. Boxed beef keeps rising higher, towards 400.00, due to these reductions. Big rains, and storms, across the state and greater region. Row crops are growing quickly as the rain has been plentiful the last two weeks. --------------------------------------------------------------- SLAUGHTER CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- DAIRY STEERS - Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 27 1418-1811 1573 202-209 205.43 Average DAIRY/BEEF HEIFERS - Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 63 1239-1382 1362 234-236 234.37 Average DAIRY/BEEF STEERS - Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 18 1228-1593 1447 231-233 232.01 Average HEIFERS - Choice 2-4 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 37 1160-1178 1175 244-247 246.52 Average Return to Feed 71 1322-1455 1340 239-248 243.28 Average Certified Prgms 99 1230-1473 1355 236-239 237.33 Average HEIFERS - Select and Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 10 1049-1049 1049 252-252 252 Average Return to Feed STEERS - Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 63 1407-1484 1438 234-238.75 236.58 Average 8 1468-1468 1468 248-248 248 Average Certified Prgms STEERS - Choice 3-4 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 10 1523-1523 1523 237-237 237 Average 9 1604-1604 1604 237.5-237.5 237.5 Average Heavy Weight STEERS - Select 2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 20 1148-1233 1169 245-260 256.05 Average Return to Feed STEERS - Select and Choice 2-3 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price Dressing 116 1244-1433 1316 237-249 242.44 Average Return to Feed --------------------------------------------------------------- FEEDER CATTLE --------------------------------------------------------------- DAIRY/BEEF HEIFERS - Medium and Large 2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 12 551-551 551 235-235 235 DAIRY/BEEF STEERS - Medium and Large 2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 6 484-484 484 290-290 290 18 633-633 633 292.5-292.5 292.5 HEIFERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 3 1045-1045 1045 235-235 235 18 667-667 667 327-327 327 15 828-828 828 284-284 284 HEIFERS - Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 4 1034-1034 1034 225-225 225 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 6 444-444 444 357.5-357.5 357.5 113 575-582 576 350-352 351.71 115 625-648 629 327-361.75 355.92 445 666-699 690 315-343.75 337.85 367 703-746 713 319-337.5 330.85 402 764-799 782 290-315 300.75 232 801-841 823 283-309 298.66 35 866-866 866 269-269 269 Fleshy 347 853-893 872 271-298 284.25 17 879-879 879 327.5-327.5 327.5 Replacement 650 902-948 916 266.85-289.5 271.02 63 939-939 939 265.5-265.5 265.5 Fleshy 158 951-965 959 270-281.75 279.75 HEIFERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 11 434-447 438 405-405 405 11 477-477 477 400-400 400 4 541-541 541 352.5-352.5 352.5 4 565-565 565 352.5-352.5 352.5 12 635-635 635 329-329 329 4 724-724 724 306-306 306 20 799-799 799 264-264 264 11 828-844 838 260-273 268.33 STEERS - Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 822 1001-1045 1025 280-294.25 289.87 158 1050-1056 1052 285.5-285.5 285.5 6 1062-1062 1062 270-270 270 Fleshy 238 1100-1132 1115 267.85-270.85 269.39 10 664-664 664 344-344 344 14 766-766 766 308-308 308 STEERS - Medium and Large 1 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 12 503-504 503 440-445 443.33 30 573-580 579 377.5-395 388.25 30 632-634 633 376-384 382.13 45 682-682 682 344-344 344 23 701-729 719 351-358 352.19 142 763-769 764 323-341 339.85 188 806-848 825 310-334 325.18 84 850-892 857 302.5-321.75 317.16 329 907-948 925 285-304.5 302.12 865 952-993 969 282-303.5 295.99 STEERS - Medium and Large 1-2 (Per Cwt/Actual) Head Wt Range Avg Wt Price Range Avg Price 40 794-794 794 311.5-311.5 311.5 6 880-880 880 295-295 295

AgHost Livestock Close

AgHost Livestock Close

It was a lackluster day for the livestock complex as most of the contracts closed lower from a lack of fundamental support, and the cattle contracts closed significantly lower thanks to the USDA's announcement that the border will reopen to Mexican cattle imports.
