The Wednesday sale at Stortford Lodge had a very spring like feel to it – both in the weather and prices posted. Cattle volume rose to 600 and featured R2 traditional heifers which averaged 320kg and firmed to $2.89/kg. R2 bulls were split between Hereford-Friesian, 325-332kg, at $2.97-$3.00/kg and Friesian, 349-432kg, which varied from $2.72-$2.82/kg to $2.96-$2.98/kg.
Recent high lamb prices attracted more to market, with a 30:70 split of male and ewe lambs. Prices lifted and heavy ewe lambs achieved $151-$157, and light to medium $92-$130. Few lines sold below $100. Read more in your LivestockEye.
