Commentary

There were 83 head penned representing a decrease of 226 head week-on-week with supply affected by the mountain calf sales. Most of the usual buyers were present but not able to operate fully in a firm market. Quality was limited to a small selection of cows and a handful of store heifers. Heifers sold to restockers 9c/kg dearer. Cows improved slightly. Heavy bulls sold firm.

Heifers to restockers sold from 390c to 420c/kg. Most light and medium weight cows made between 340c and 376c/kg. Heavy weight cows sold mostly between 370c and 409c/kg. A pair of heavy Euro bulls made 448c and 454c/kg.
