As filed

Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. 6.00-10.00 higher, a few 500-550 lbs. 20.00 higher though quality more attractive, Feeders over 600 lbs. steady. Heifers under 600 lbs. 4.00-8.00 higher, feeders over 600 lbs. 1.00 higher, a few 700-750 lbs. 7.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls 2.00 higher, instances 5.00 higher on high yielding offerings. Trade very active, demand very good with recent rain in the area making prospects for pasture more possible and limited offerings of slaughter cows and bulls the past few weeks.

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.
