There was a much larger yarding of 2,282 lambs (996 more) at Powranna on Tuesday and as with recent weeks there was not a lot of weight but a good selection of trade and light trade lambs. The market was generally $10 to $15 cheaper with restockers paying $55 to $130 for light lambs and $134 to $162 for light trade. Processors bought light trade for $116 to $152, trade $140 to $184 and heavy $188 to $222.

There was a larger yarding of 2,200 mutton (1,000 more) with many pens of heavy and extra heavy sheep included. The market lost some of last week’s gains to be $10 to $20 cheaper. Extra heavy sheep made $80 to $116, heavy $88 to $106, medium $74 to $90 and light $30 to $65/head.
