Concerns of a softer sale proved unfounded at Wairoa on Thursday as 1350 cattle sold to strong demand.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

The whole sale was completed in just over an hour as bids flowed freely for all types. Two-year Angus steers sold to $1795, with the top line of Angus & Angus-Hereford making $1685. All other lines earned $1510-$1660.

Two-year heifer volume was well up and was primarily straight Angus and Hereford, and a few lines of a mix of both. The top Angus line made $1310, and Hereford $1270-$1305, while a large portion of the Angus were medium-good types at $1110-$1150. Angus-Hereford sold for $1150- $1270.

Angus more than dominated the yearling steer pens, and good lines sold for $1207-$1340 and the balance $1110-$1175, while Angus-Hereford pens largely sold for $1245- $1315.
