Total Yarding – 1050
Numbers more than halved this sale and quality was again very mixed. There was some handy lines of supplementary fed
yearlings offered along with the plainer types. Yearlings made up the majority of the offering. The usual buyers were present and
competing in a dearer market.

298c/kg. Those to feed were 8c to 10c better to receive from 247c to 295c/kg. Restockers were again active, paying 160c to
295c/kg for the lighter types. Yearling heifers to processors lifted 8c selling from 242c to 296c, while those to feed were 10c
better to make from 219c to 250c/kg.
Heavy steers and bullocks were limited and sold from 270c to 280c/kg. Grown heifers sold from 218c to 249c/kg. Cows
