Stock Comment

Numbers increased this week with a good quality yarding of export on offer as well as a mixed quality offering of weaner & yearlings. With most processors operating the export job translated dearer right the way through. Cows sold 10-12c/kg dearer. Bulls sold firm to dearer. Feeder steers experienced little change. Lighter Cattle sold firm in the top end to slightly easier quality related. Cattle with condition proved to be stronger. Light weight lesser quality weaners proved hard to sell once again.
