As filed

Compared to two weeks ago: Steer calves under 500 lbs. 1.00-2.00 lower, over 500 lbs. steady to 5.00 higher. Calves and feeders over 600 lbs. steady to 3.00 higher. No comparison with last month on Holstein steers due to very limited receipts last month. Heifer calves under 600 lbs. mostly 2.00-3.00 higher except 300-350 lbs. 3.00 lower. Calves and feeders over 600 lbs. 1.00-3.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady, bulls 1.00 higher. Trade active demand 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.
