Robust demand from the gallery absorbed a big increase in store lamb volume at Temuka last Monday. Strong results were posted including larger lambs that earned $89-$102, while medium were $71-$91. Top prime lambs managed $150-$170 with the bulk of the yarding $120-$149. The best ewes managed $191, with medium to heavy types at $130-$182 and lighter pens were mostly $105-$128. Most steers were dairy-beef breeds that stretched from $2.38/kg to $2.50/kg. Heifer pens had more variance but most over 450kg managed $2.27-$2.38/kg with second-cuts at $2.10/kg to $2.26/kg.
