The general trend across the sheep and cattle pens at FEILDING last Monday was down, with space tightening up and schedules easing.
Sheep volume came down with just over 50 main pens to sell. Prices eased for lambs and ewes with the top lambs at $157, and ewes, $159.
Boner cows made up the bulk of the cattle section and prices eased 5-15c/kg as Friesian, 460-527kg, traded at $1.41-$1.46/kg.
Ex-service bulls made up the balance and the best of two very heavy exotic bulls was Charolais, 1000kg, at $1.98/kg, while Jersey, 503-567kg, made $2.25-$2.35/kg.
