Total Head Yarded: 329 Export: 176 Veal: 153
Comments: This week we saw a slightly bigger yarding of cattle with some handy lines on offer. The quality of export cattle was back, however, the market held firm. Restockers were very active once again with good quality calves with weight realising over $1,700 per head and lighter weight steer calves reaching over 730c/kg for calves around the 160kg mark.

Store Cattle Sale
Date: Thursday 18th February 2021
Total Head Yarded: 1248 x 109
Comments: An excellent quality yarding was on offer at Grafton’s monthly Store Cattle Sale. Heavy feeder steers were well supplied, with both buyers and spectators commenting on the quality and condition. Most feeder steers over 400kg sold from 400c/kg up to 460c/kg, many sales over $2,000.00 per head. Weaner steers and heifers didn’t quite archived last month’s highs, however, the market was still very strong. Cows & calves started off a little weaker, but soon lifted in prices as the sale went on topping at $3,220 for big framed cows & sappy calves, PTIC back in calf. PTIC Cows reached 370c/kg or $1,952.00.
