A total of 304 cattle was offered at Taranaki last Wednesday. Quality was a little better which was evident with a firmer market than the previous sale.
The top end of the two-year steers lifted, with nice 533kg Hereford-Friesian and 485kg Speckle Park-cross able to reach $2.89-$2.94/kg.
Most yearling heifers, 253-309kg, traded at $2.04/kg to $2.17/kg, while 250kg Speckle Park-cross managed $2.40/kg. Read more in your LivestockEye.
