Yarding: 427
Report Date: Thursday, 23 November 2023
THURSDAY 23rd NOVEMBER 2023
Two mobs consigned from the northwest accounted for the bulk of the 427 head yarding at Emerald today, with only a cupful of cattle presented from the local area.
Given the smaller yarding there was good support from an array of buyers & the market responded across all categories albeit there were not enough cattle in many classes to provide accurate detail.
Bullocks mixed in weight and age sold to a top of 265c to processors to a/v 258c for those over 500kg, half a dozen better cows made to 238c a lift of 25c, the average for bulls over 600kg lifted 14c.
Around 200 northern Brahman steers 50% Hgp treated sold from just over 260c to top at 294c, to a/v 45c better than very similar cattle sold the week prior. 3 pens of mickies from the same vendor made 240c & a small sample of store conditioned softer local steers well suited to grass or grain made to 326c a whopping 76c above the previous week’s best result.
There were no heavy or feeder heifers penned and only 4 head of Brahman weaner heifers which were mixed in presentation & quality to peak at 180c.
Yibbida yibbida that’s the market report for the 23/11/2023, that’s all folks.
P.S. We sincerely hope everyone is getting or going to get under their fair share of rain. Warren, Ed & Cherylee.
