Dalhart Livestock Auction
Dalhart, TX
Market information provided by USDA
21 MAY '26
Compared to last week: The market seemed to turn softer this week, particularly steer calves weighing up to 650. Heifers seemed to fare better, but there were too few comparable sales to determine a trend. Quality seemed to be plainer as drought conditions persist in the area. Slaughter cattle reporting was shorter this week, but the market fared positive on high yielding cows and bulls. A large supply of dries and late calvers were brought in off of droughty and burned out country. High yielding beef cows brought upwards of $1.90/lb for the first time this week, and high yielding, good flesh bulls remain over $2.00. Trade was mixed with the higher demand favoring the slaughter cattle market.
