The low numbers helped the market however, with about 220 offered, mainly in small lines.
Feature lines included R2 Charolais-South Devon steers, 530kg, which sold for $2.70-$2.76/kg, with most of the age group trading at $2.70-$2.80/kg. These stayed local as buyers restocked after finishing other cattle.
In the R2 heifer pens, a quality line of Angus-Friesian, 410kg, earned $2.66/kg. Demand was very high for R1 exotic-cross steers, 297kg, which fetched $1010, $3.40/kg.
In-calf boner cows were of good quality and at 530-540kg, returned $2.40/kg, empty lines $2.05-$2.10/kg.
