Commentary
There was a slight increase in numbers, for a total yarding of 1065 mixed quality cattle. Most of the offering suited the restocker or feedlot buyers, including some good runs of feeder steers and some good lines of well-bred weaners. There was a limited supply of prime and heavy grown cattle and there were 480 cows. All the regular buyers were operating, along with extra restocker interest, selling to a mostly stronger market.
Yearlings to process sold from 462c to 517c/kg. Feeder steers were up to 15c dearer, selling from 470c to 578c, and the limited supply of heifers to feed were firm to a few cents better, making from 441c to 517c/kg. Strong competition for young cattle from the restockers resulted in significant price gains, with the steers ranging from 431c to 639c, and the heifers ranged from 340c to 546c/kg.
Heavy grown cattle were price unchanged, with both the steers and heifers reaching 462c/kg. Lighter 2 and 3 score cows to process were cheaper, selling from 280c to 386c, and heavy prime cows were back 5c, topping at 425c, to average 408c/kg. There was strong demand from the restockers for cows, selling to dearer trends, ranging from 347c to 408c/kg. Heavy bulls to process were 20c better, quality related, selling from 311c to 453c/kg.
