An object of the present invention is to provide a cerium oxide abrasive material containing cerium oxide abrasive particles prepared by a synthetic method using an aqueous solution of a salt of a rare earth element and a precipitant, the cerium oxide abrasive particles having a spherical shape and high polishing performance (polishing rate and polishing precision of the polished surface), a method for producing the cerium oxide abrasive material, and a polishing method. The cerium oxide abrasive material according to the present invention comprises spherical cerium oxide abrasive particles prepared by a synthetic method using an aqueous solution of a salt of a rare earth element and a precipitant, wherein the cerium oxide abrasive particles have a spherical shape having an average aspect ratio within the range of 1.00 to 1.15.
