BUYER attendance was good with a full panel of exporters operating.
The usual feed and trade buyers were also in attendance, and interstate restockers were also very active in the young cattle section. Overall quality was generally good with a lift in the standard of the good heavy cows.
Light weight yearling steers returning to the paddock averaged a few cents dearer. Medium and heavy weight yearling steers to feed improved in price by 3c to 7c/kg. Yearling heifers to feed followed a similar trend. Most classes of cows lifted in price by 5c to 8c and up to 14c/kg in places, with some of the improvement in price due to the better quality penned.
Steer calves returning to the paddock made to 480.2c to average 463c/kg. Light weight yearling steers were well supplied and sold to restockers at an average of 432c with sales to 464.2c/kg. Yearling steers to feed under 330kg made to 436c to average 410c/kg. Medium weight yearling steers to feed averaged 394c and made to 420c/kg. Heavy weight yearling steers to feed made to 398c to average 392c, and a few to the local trade market made to 398c/kg.
