Commentary

Numbers dropped away this week as agents yarded 548 head of liveweight and open auction cattle. These sold to another large field of active trade and feeder buyers along with feeder and restocker support. Quality continues to be good as the first offering of vealers came forward with the market improving in price to sell to dearer rates across the board.
Vealer steers attracted the trade from 495c to 510c and also the heifers from 476c to 504c/kg. Yearling numbers were very small as the trade sought steers from 432c to 505c and heifers to 466c/kg. Feeder orders operated here to 495c on steers and from 370c to 479c/kg on the heifers.
Grown steers and bullocks were of great weight and condition to lift 12c as they sold from 458c to 495c to the trade and from 478c to also 495c/kg to feeder orders. Grown heifers lifted up to 20c as they attracted the trade from 373c to 479c and feeders from 420c to 475c/kg.
Heavy cows rose 10c to sell from 396c to 447c with lighter lots returning from 325c to 398c to the trade with restocker and feeder support from 362c to also 398c/kg. Bulls sold from 366c to 460c to the trade with some feeder interest to 487c with a lift of 10c/kg.
