Relentless rain added more fuel to the cattle market at Stortford Lodge last Wednesday, though did not impact the lamb section. 4600 lambs were offered and featured consignments of whiteface male lambs and blackface mixed-sex. Medium males came back to $90-$101 and good mixed-sex, $104-$113. In contrast the cattle sale was strong. Two-year heifers traded at $2.81-$2.93/kg regardless of breed and Friesian bulls, 508-520kg, firmed to $2.97-$3.04/kg. Yearling exotic-cross steers, 296-311kg, sold well at $3.50-$3.55/kg and a consignment of autumn-born beef-dairy heifers, 169-213kg, traded at $500-$650. Read more in your LivestockEye.
