Commentary
With the Easter break approaching, numbers decreased for a total yarding of 696 mixed quality cattle. There were some outstanding runs of grain fed yearlings to process, along with some good lines of feeder steers. Young cattle lacked the quality of previous sales, and there were 120 cows to process. Not all the usual buyers were in attendance, selling to a mostly cheaper market.
B muscled prime yearlings to suit the trade attracted strong competition, selling from 530c to 568c, and the C muscled types ranged from 452c to 504c/kg. Feeder steers were firm to a few cents better, selling from 446c to 524c, and heifers to feed were back 10c,making from 388c to 458c/kg. Young steers returning to the paddock were considerably cheaper and the heifer portion were price unchanged.
There were not enough heavy grown cattle to quote. Cows dropped another 15c, with the lighter and leaner types selling from 220c to 332c, and the heavy prime cows topped at 366c, to avenge 362c/kg. Heavy bulls to process sold from 355c to 400c/kg.
