Stortford Lodge prime cattle and sheep 23.11

Ewe throughput swelled to just under 5100 last Monday at Stortford Lodge as weaning continued. The increased number did dampen the market for most and the balance of heavy to very heavy ewes softened to $146-$157.50. Light-medium to medium eased to $103-$120, and the tail end made $80.50-$102.50. Most lambs held or firmed, and 18 very heavy mixed-sex strengthened to $205 though the remainder eased to $170-$185. The balance of heavy types held at $142-$156. 22 cattle were presented and seven Charolais-cross heifers, 574kg, held at $2.85/kg and Hereford-Friesian, 459kg, softened to $2.81/kg.
