Supplies were conservative today for the long weekend with a mixed sale from very good quality local and pastoral cattle down to light weights stores. Prices held up well with what was available to buyers and with a full buyers gallery, gains were recorded in heavy cows. While most other categories remained firm

Local weaner steers were selling from 362c to 542c while weaner heifers started from 250c and sold up to 480c/kg. Local yearling steers returned 470c to 502c while yearling heifers were selling from 256c to 480c/kg. Pastoral steer calves ranged from 268c to 430c and pastoral heifers from 124c up to 404c over a wider range of condition.

Grown steers returned from 340c to 480c while grown heifers returned 360c to 458c/kg.
Store cows made 150c to 288c while medium weights returned 282c to 332c and heavy cows lifted 10c and sold to a top of 360c/kg.

Young bulls ranged from 300c to 406c while heavy bulls sold from 320 to 350c/kg.
