Texas USDA Weekly Cattle Report — Week of Nov. 2–7, 2026
Texas barns with USDA coverage — the five USDA AMS markets SCI tracks every week (Dalhart, Giddings, Lonestar Stockyards / Wildorado, Producers / San Angelo, Tulia), for the week of Nov. 2–7, 2026. Markets with no USDA publication this week stay listed with their last report date. Each row shows 400–500 lb (4-weight) and 500–600 lb (5-weight) steer and heifer ranges, total receipts, and the auction's own USDA trend — pulled straight from USDA Market News. Report dates vary by each barn's sale day.

| Dalhart Dalhart, TX · USDA AMS · Panhandle | Reporting This Week | Nov 5, 2026 | 2,375 | Compared to last week: Not a whole lot of positive this week; a down turning board zapped last weeks excitement. Demand favored calves under 600 that are long weaned, reputation, and ready for wheat. All other classes steers and heifers lost 20.00-50.00. Feeders taking the biggest hit on little demand. | $390–$503 | $360–$433 | $350–$441 | $300–$352 | View |
