The return on consistent rainfall throughout the East Coast meant minimal numbers of store lambs were on offer at Matawhero.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

Store lamb lines only reached half a dozen, with light types particularly absent when compared to recent weeks. Medium-to-heavier lines were bought at $65.50-$79, with other lighter pens $50-$52. Breeding ewes actually outnumbered lambs because of a few decent sized lines. Medium-to-good five-year ewes were $74-$84, while one line of good two-tooth’s made $110.

There was a good number of prime ewes on offer which all made decent returns at $72-$80. Prime lambs were varied, with the top line making $111.50, while the rest were $85-$96.
