As filed

Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. 3.00-5.00 higher, a few feeders over 600 lbs. steady, calves steady to 3.00 lower. Heifer calves under 500 lbs. 5.00-6.00 higher, over 500 lbs. 1.00 lower on unweaned calves. No comparison on feeders due to very limited offerings. Slaughter cows 3.00 lower, bulls steady. Trade moderate to active, demand moderate to good.

How this sale compares

New Mexico weighted averages

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every New Mexico auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.

New Mexico feeder prices, every weight →Every state and region →
