Commentary

A much smaller yarding came forward following the long weekend break as agents offered 2.700 lambs and 400 sheep. The usual trade and processor buyers were active along with specialty butchers, feeders and restockers. Quality was generally fair to good across the small yarding. While store Merino lambs, trade and heavy mutton sold to a dearer trend most other categories sold firm for type and condition.

Crossbred light stores sold from $160 to $200 with better types selling from $180 to $230/head. Trade weights sold from $240 to $265, heavy trade weights ranged from $250 to $280 with the few extreme heavyweights selling from $290 to $408/head.
Forward store Merino lambs were again keenly contested as they sold from $190 to $240/head. Trade weights sold from $220 to $250, heavy trade weights ranged from $270 to $290 with extreme heavyweights weights selling from $300 to $325/head.
Light mutton sold from $140 to $190, trade weights ranged from $210 to $250 with heavy weights selling from $260 to $318/head.
