New Mexico cattle markets
New Mexico's cattle industry is centered largely on cow-calf ranching, with cattle raised on extensive rangeland in the eastern plains, southwest, and other grazing areas. Calves commonly move from ranches into stocker programs, regional auction markets, or feedlots in the Southwest and Southern Plains. Spring and fall are active periods for breeding-stock sales, while fall weaning is a common time for calf marketing. Eastern New Mexico trade areas, including Clovis and surrounding communities, are established parts of the state's cattle market network.
New Mexico cattle market commentary
Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold mostly 10.00-20.00 higher. Feeder steers and heifers traded unevenly steady. Trade active, demand moderate to good. Heavy rain in parts of the state over the weekend. Slaughter cows and bulls were 2.00-5.00 lower.
Market commentary above is quoted from the USDA Market News report.
About this data
These are auction sale prices reported by USDA Market News from livestock auctions across New Mexico, summarized weekly. Feeder cattle are quoted per hundredweight (cwt); breeding and replacement cattle are often quoted per head or per pair. Prices move with the futures market, feed costs, and demand, so confirm current values at your local auction.

New Mexico cattle price frequently asked questions
How much are feeder steers in New Mexico right now?
Feeder steer prices in New Mexico ran from about $175 to $640 per cwt this week, with lighter calves bringing more per hundredweight than heavy yearlings; feeder heifers ran about $155 to $510 per cwt. Prices are from the USDA weekly cattle auction summary for the week ending Oct 31, 2026. Exact prices depend on weight, frame, and quality, shown in the tables above.
Why do lighter cattle cost more per hundredweight?
Buyers usually pay a higher price per pound for lighter calves than for heavy yearlings, a pattern often called the price slide, because lighter cattle have more weight left to gain. That is why a 5-weight steer can post a higher per-cwt price than an 8-weight steer at the same auction.
How often are these cattle prices updated?
USDA Market News publishes New Mexico auction summaries weekly, and this page refreshes after each new report. Auction prices can change from week to week, so check the report date shown above.
