Commentary

Anew centre record was set with lambs selling to $399 was the highlight in a yarding where numbers were back by 7500 for a total of 21600 lambs. It was a mixed yarding with a pretty good selection of well finished trade and heavy weight lambs mixed throughout along with good numbers of lambs lacking finish in from the far west. There were once again good numbers of exotic lambs along with fair numbers of Merinos mixed throughout the yarding. Not all the regular buyers were present with a major local export processor closed for maintenance.

Lightweight lambs to the processors were firm to $4 cheaper with the 12kg to 18kg 2 scores selling from $100 to $150/head. Trade lambs were $9 cheaper with the 20kg to 24kg lambs selling from $175 to $266 to average between 985c and 1020c/kg cwt. Heavy weight lambs were up to $10 cheaper with the lambs weighing 24kg to 30kg selling from $243 to $318/head to average between 950c and 1035c/kg cwt. Lambs over 30kg sold from $295 to $399/head. Merino lambs were up to $15 cheaper with trade weights selling from $138 to $240 while heavy weight Merino lambs sold to $300/head. Restocker lambs were firm with young crossbreds selling from $50 to $187/head. Hoggets sold to $250/head.

There were 6600 mixed mutton yarded where most grades were up to $22/head cheaper. Merino ewes sold from $65 to $226 while crossbred ewes sold from $138 to $225/head. Merino wethers sold from $140 to $200 while White Dorper wethers sold to $250/head. Carcass prices averaged from 635c and 680c/kg cwt. The restockers paid from $100 to $135 for Merino ewes and from $58 to $136/head for Merino wethers.
