A small ewe yarding regained ground lost to finish at levels similar to a fortnight ago. Price tags of $120 plus was more regular, helped also by an improvement in quality. The lesser end also made good value as the demand held up right through. Bottom dollar range was $78-$84, with medium to medium-good achieving $100-$116.50.
In stark contrast to last year and traditional patterns, the lamb market is very much a seller’s paradise. Processors are actively sourcing lambs, which is heightening competition for the few available at prime sales. Mixed sex sold down to $109 though were in the minority, with most lines making $127-$150.
