The focus of the sheep sale at Temuka last Tuesday was the prime section as few stores were entered. The top lambs earned $140-$153 while medium lines were in the $120-$139 bracket. Lighter pens were $100-$119. In the ewe pens most of the top end made $150-$165 while the remainder were generally $110-$146. Good numbers of Jersey bulls earned $2.21/kg to $2.35/kg while heifers of all breeds sold in the tight range of $2.26-$2.36/kg. Read more in your LivestockEye.
