MUCHEA CATTLE REPORT 22/06/2026
Total Yarding 586
Numbers remain conservative heading towards the end of the financial year. The sale was a mix of good quality local weaners and several pens of local cows while pastoral cattle sold over a wider range of condition. The market was very strong with most categories gaining in values as no local weaner steers sold under 500c and a pen of very well presented Droughtmaster cows reached 392c/kg. The usual line up of processors and feedlot buyers were present along with several seasonal restockers.
Local weaner steers gained 25/30c selling from 500c to 582c while weaner heifers also lifted 20/25c starting from 372c and sold up to 496c/kg. Local yearling steers returned slight gains making 420c to 498c while yearling heifers were selling from 340c to 492c/kg. Pastoral steer calves sold over a wide range of quality and lifted 25/30c with stores starting from 286c and sold up to 420c when showing more finish. Pastoral heifers followed suit over a wide range of condition selling from 216c to 430c/kg.
The few grown steers yarded returned 284c to 432c and even fewer grown heifers making 398c to 410c/kg. Store cows made 250c to 280c to remain firm while medium weights gained 20c returning 308c to 374c and heavy cows also lifted selling to a top of 392c/kg.
Restockers and exporters were paying 250c to 488c for young bulls while heavy bulls returned 280c to 360c/kg to remain firm
