While it was a quiet day at Stortford Lodge last Wednesday, quality was prevalent through both sections of the sale.
Traditional and exotic yearlings featured and drew a good local crowd. Angus steers, 462kg, made $2.82/kg, and Hereford-Friesian, 326-379kg, $2.69-$2.70/kg. One line of 2-year Angus-Hereford steers, 589kg, fetched $2.80/kg.
The sheep sale took half an hour with 500 yarded. Most were lambs and a line of 215 medium-good cryptorchid sold for $113. Two small lines of good ewe lambs made $107-$109.
