Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. steady to 3.00 lower on 300-350 lbs. 2.00 higher on 400-450 lbs., Feeders over 600 lbs. instances 5.00 higher though quality more attractive, calves over 600 lbs. 3.00-4.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 ls. unevenly steady, a few 450-500 lbs. 2.00 higher, no accurate comparison on feeders or calves over 600 lbs. but a lower undertone noted. Slaughter cows steady, bulls 3.00 higher though quality more attractive. Trade 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.
