Sidney Livestock Market Center Working hard to build a competitive marketplace for your livestock. Hansen and Svaare continued to operate the yards, and in 1960 Dan Price joined their team.

Our History

At about the time the United States was pulling itself out of the dark early months of World War II, a young Montana beet farmer and cattle feeder recently over from Denmark teamed up with a packer-stockman – also a Danish transplant – and started a livestock market. Chris Hansen and Ingvard Svarre, were simply bringing to the area what was needed for the livestock industry to flourish, this great addition to Sidney happened in 1943 and at that time being called, Yellowstone Livestock Co. In 1966 the current facility was built, at the time being one of the nation’s most modern livestock sales yards. Shares were sold to local residents to help pay for the building of the new facility. Hansen and Svaare continually updated equipment and worked to keep the office abreast of the ever changing business procedures. Svarre himself, through his active participation in industry affairs was instrumental in the development of the industry service know as the Livestock Board of Trade, which today is a huge benefit to both the sellers and the buyers. In 1969 Loran and Dennis Casey of Wolf Point and Dan Price of Sidney purchased the business end of Yellowstone Livestock from Hansen, Svaare and Price, renaming it Sidney Livestock Market. The Share Holders continued to own the land and buildings. Loran’s son joined the business in 1978 and son-in-law in 1983. Loran Casey and his family continued to run the facility until 2008 when the stockholders decided to buy out the Casey family and bring back the original name of Yellowstone Livestock Company. It remained Yellowstone Livestock until September 1st 2012 when it was bought out and renamed Sidney Livestock Market Center. Tim Larson has taken over as manager, Roger Nygaard is our fieldman from Wolf Point, and Christy Albin is our office manager. Sidney Livestock has a capacity of 3500 animals. We have cattle, horse and sheep sales, with the cattle sales being every Wednesday. Sadie's Cafe is a huge benefit, having a full service restaurant housed in the same building as the sales facility has created a meeting point for many area farmers, ranchers, business people, and residents of Sidney. Being open Monday through Friday, Sadie's serves that great home cooked food. For over 65 years Sidney Livestock Market Center has been a great asset to the Sidney area, serving ranchers from all over Eastern Montana and Western North Dakota. We appreciate your business and want to do everything we can to accommodate your Livestock needs. From a full service livestock facility to video auction representatives, we are here to take care of you.

Wednesday, November 4th we sold 3,018 HD.

We saw a huge shift in the market within the past week. Feeder Futures are down all of $20/cwt since last Wednesday. Live Cattle trade down all of $10/cwt in a week. The calf market at the end of the day was $5-10 lower on steer calves & $5-15 lower on heifer calves. We did still see a lot of demand on Double Vacc. calves and lighter weights.

This was our Black Angus Influence & Feeder Calf Sale. We saw calf prices be every bit steady to higher than just a week ago. We saw a lot of interest in calves that were Double Vacc. & in that 450 weight range. We saw a strong demand for Black Heifer Calves that had no brands and that had the replacement heifer look.
