Commentary

Lamb numbers eased and the quality was a bit plainer. There was an even mix of lambs from light store to some very good trade weights to a few more extra heavy lambs. The usual buyers were operating but some were slowing down for planed maintenance. Light stores and heavy lambs were cheaper but trade weights were in demand and sold to a stronger trend.

Store lambs to 18kg sold from $152 to $260/head and trade weights 22 to 24kg ranged from $264 to $317/head. Lambs 24 to 26kg ranged from $280 to $319/head and most sold in the range of 1180c to 1200c with a few pens out to 1300c/kg when the right article was presented. Heavy lambs were around $5 softer and sold from $296 to $334/head or 1080c/kg and extra heavy lambs sold to $390/head. The best of the heavy hoggets reached $338/head.

Mutton numbers lifted and the quality was varied. Prices were again stronger with medium weights gaining the most. Medium weight ewes sold from $159 to $258 and heavy Merino wethers reached $340 while crossbreds made to $354/head. Most sold from 850c to 930c with some of the dearer pens of medium weights headed towards 1000c/kg.
