As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves 11.00-17.00 higher compared to last week's limited offerings but weather conditions much improved and quality more attractive, No comparison on feeders due to very limited offerings last week but a higher undertone noted on limited offerings this week. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 higher, bulls 4.00 higher. Trade active, demand very 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.
