Buyers were mostly interested in well-presented lines at Temuka on Thursday and anything lacking quality struggled to attract bids. R2 steers sold in two cuts and many of the better conditioned pens of Hereford-Friesian, 403-456kg, achieved $2.18-$2.24/kg. Second tier Hereford-Friesian, along with the occasional pen of Angus or Hereford, generally fetched $2.01/kg to $2.16/kg. A few pens of Hereford-Friesian heifers, along with Angus and Angus-Hereford, 398-405kg, managed $1.83-$1.84/kg, but the rest of the mostly Hereford-Friesian line-up, 373-425kg, traded at $1.62-$1.71/kg.
