Yarding 1946 Change +536

Numbers lifted at this morning’s Forbes sale with agents yarding 1946 head. Quality was mixed though there was some good lines of well bred feeder cattle penned along with the secondary types.

There was an improved offering of cows and the usual buyers were present and competing in an easier market.

Middleweight yearling steers to feed eased 5c to sell from 520 to 613c/kg. Heavyweights slipped 10c to 15c to range from 490c to 606c/kg. Finished lines to processors sold from 460 to 486c/kg.

The heifer portion to feed received from 480 to 532c/kg for middle and heavyweights. The better finished lines to processors ranged from 430c to 490c/kg.

Heavy steers and bullocks sold from 440c to 480/kg. Grown heifers ranged in price from 385 to 467c/kg. A handy offering of heavy finished cows received from 385c to 420c/kg with plainer types from 350 to 388c/kg. The best heavy bull reached 438c/kg.
