Commentary

Numbers lifted slightly for a yarding of 4350 cattle. Quality was good and competition was strong. There were large supplies of cows on offer as well as heavy prime cattle, along with good numbers of mixed weight feeder cattle. All the regular buyers were operating as well as additional processor orders and prices were significantly stronger across most categories.

Prime yearling steers were firm to stronger, selling form 300c to 398c, and prime yearling heifers, 12c dearer and more in places, 330c to 410c/kg. Feeder steers lifted 10c to 15c, selling from 320c to 448c, and feeder heifers gained 20c, 290c to 359c/kg.

Prime grown steers sold 25c dearer, 345c to 403c, while prime grown heifers held firm, 288c to 390c/kg. Cows were up to 30c stronger, 2 and 3 scores sold from 232c to 340c, and heavy prime cows, 328c to 359c/kg. Heavy bulls sold to 350c/kg.
