Commentary

Recent rain got the bids flying at the last Blackall weaner sale for 2024. Despite a mixed quality yarding of 3,500, including a line from the Northern Territory, good quality restocker steers and heifers saw a vast improvement on previous weeks with solid competition from local and south east buyer orders.

A large number of light weight restocker steers in store condition were penned with the best steers under 280kg selling to 452.2c to average 418c, with ‘D’ muscle lines averaging 360c/kg. Buyers were still preferring steers 280 to 330kg with the top price of 444.2c to average 429c/kg. Medium steers returning to the paddock averaged 401c and good quality heavy feeder steers also improved, selling to 390.2c to average 379c/kg.

Northern restocker support helped push light weight restocker heifers under 280kg out to 346.2c to average 319c while those heifers 280 to 330kg made to 330.2c to average 307c/kg. Feeders paid up to 320.2c for medium weight heifers averaging 283c, and a small sample of heavy feeder heifers made to 280.2 averaging 270c/kg.
