After a wet few weeks in the Clarence Valley, an excellent yarding of cattle came forward. Most major processors were operating, and buyer attendance was fair. With the return of a major processor, prices in the export section lifted with most categories 10 to 15 cents dearer. Feeder cattle were in short supply, however quality cattle sold well and firm on previous sales.
