There were 131 extra cattle penned for a total of 1,177 head offered to the mainly usual field of buyers. Quality was quite mixed, with most in lean condition, but for all weights in each category. Prices improved further, with export cattle a general 10c to 20c/kg dearer and trade cattle even higher. It was the plain to average quality that got the best rises most of the time. This week's yarding comprised 230 grown steers, 204 young cattle, 701 cows and 42 bulls. The C2 and C3 yearlings to processors made from 260c to 300c, with a pen of six C4 heifers making 325c/kg. Restockers paid from 250c to 284c, while the poor to plain E1 yearlings sold from 117c to 210c/kg. Medium weight C2 grown steers received from 276c to 325c, with the C3 grade making from 314c to 335c/kg.
