The lamb section could have been sold twice over, given the amount of interest on the rails.
The small size of the lamb yarding was contrasted by mainly big lambs and big prices, with the pick being 100 very heavy male lambs which sold for $170. All other male and ram lamb lines fetched $120-$150, and ewes, $110-$133.
A bigger spread of buyers were there to greet the ewes and the better of the 2-tooths made $111- $116, with the remainder at $94-$108. Top mixed age achieved $125- $134, though the bulk of the offering sold for $110-$123. Medium-good types traded at $91-$107, with just a small tail end making $68-$78.
Just one 915kg Hereford-Friesian steer made up the cattle sale, selling well at $2685, $2.93/kg.
