Commentary

Numbers eased and the quality was plainer with more light weights penned. The drop in numbers came mainly from a reduction in cow numbers with just under 800 offered. Heavy feeder steers were well supplied and there were a few more trade cattle. Grown steers and heavy grown heifers lifted in numbers with fewer lights to feed on penned. Cow quality was mixed. Cattle under 350kg were mostly cheaper while the finished heavy weights, trade cattle and forward conditioned feeders were dearer. Cows were around 15c cheaper.
