Yarding 5372 Change 2731

MOST of the yarding was made up of local medium weight yearling steers and heifers 280 to 400kg.

Light weight restocker steers and heifers were of a mixed quality this week and could not maintain the averages of the previous sale.

There was a large panel of restocker buyers that pushed feeders along on the medium weight steers leading to an increase of 10c to 20c/kg.
