Market Report 1 December 2020
Cattle– 802
Numbers reduced by by over half, to offer cows in the minority plus a good selection of feeder and restocker cattle. Two exporters were absent from the buying panel, while the regular operators competed in a mostly cheaper market. Limited numbers of weaners sold to cheaper trends, with a lack of quality a contributing factor. Light weight yearling steers to feed experienced cheaper price trends of 15c/kg. The light weight drafts going back to restockers resulted in cheaper trends of 7c/kg. The bulk of medium weight feeders saw falls of 12c/kg. Both light and medium weight heifers experienced price reductions of 20c to 25c/kg. The medium offering of trade heifers sold to a cheaper trend, with the heavy trade firm on last sale. Heavy weight grown steers saw a cheaper trend, while the heifer portion to the trade sold to a dearer market. All cow weight rangers reduced in price, with medium weights showing the most losses easing by 32c/kg. The 2 score heavy weight cows were back in price by 22c/kg. Heavy weight D3 cows softened in price by 13c/kg. The bull market was also cheaper for all processor grades.
