MUCHEA CATTLE REPORT 09/06/2025
Total Yarding 363
Head numbers were very conservative today with a reasonably even representation of Local and pastoral cattle as well as the odd vealer calf sold in the trade sale as there was no separate calf Auction. There was the occasional pen of well covered young local weaners and yearlings selling well however most lines were in store and feeder condition and sold to similar rates as recent sales. Good breeding saw Pastoral steers and heifers record gains of 25/30c while the very limited cow market eased 10/15c with most being in store condition and several regular buyers standing off the rail.
Store weaner steers were selling from 180c to 280c and with more cover and weight realized 358c/kg. Store weaner heifers sold from 182c to 266c and better framed bodies up to 318c/kg. Yearling steers started from 250c up to 358c with more cover while yearling heifers sold from 222c to 340c/kg.
Pastoral steer calves with light frames started from 134c and in more forward condition up to 330c/kg. Light conditioned pastoral heifer calves started from 108c and when presenting a good depth of fat cover pushed up to 304c/kg.
The very few grown steers in the yarding returned 240c to 300c while grown heifers were few as well selling from 260c to 308c/kg. Store cows sold from 50c to 166c and medium to heavy cows returned 180c to 258c/kg.
