A Tuesday sale for Coalgate was a very quiet affair, with just 19 cattle penned and 1560 sheep.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

A decent entry of new season lambs were offered, with numbers bolstered by 600 halfbred-blackface. Most males sold for $111-$118, with the top line of 56 making $130. Ewe lamb prices were not dissimilar as most returned $115-$116 and 80 head reached $126.

Prime lamb values were steady and the bulk made $152-$176, and up to $188. Hoggets returned $150-$167.

Demand for ewes lifted and of the nearly 460 penned around 200 traded at $200 and better, while very few could be picked up for less than $130. One-shear ewes traded at $136-$154.

In the cattle pens five steers, 540-760kg, made $2.70-$2.80/kg, and four 660kg bulls, $2.58/kg. Beef heifers reached $2.80/kg while beef-dairy returned $2.60-$2.65/kg.
