The sale at Coalgate last Thursday was busier than usual for this time of year. Most yearling steers were Hereford-Friesian, 296-442kg, and traded for $2.73-$2.84/kg, while Jersey bulls, 281-293kg, made $1.88-$1.96/kg. Prime prices softened with the top steers $2.66-$2.75/kg and $2.40-$2.50/kg made by dairy-based lines.

Store sheep volume was unusually high with the top lambs $124-$130 and the bulk medium lines at $92-$114. Most prime lambs were medium-good types that eased to $150-$169, with heavy types $170-$195.
