MUCHEA SHEEP AND LAMB REPORT 21/11/2023
Total Yarding: 10,336 - Sheep 6,726 - Lambs 3,610
There was a high increase in numbers this week more than doubling last week’s sale with generous drafts of ewes and several large lines of lighter store lambs on offer. Improved supplies of trade lambs were presented and although pricing was similar to last week a higher percentage of the heavier lamb categories were reaching the top end of those values lifting the average cwt to 565c/kg. heavy mutton eased slightly while all other categories remained firm. The usual buying group were in attendance along with some fresh faces in the restocking sector.
Store lambs started from $12 up to $68 while light lambs were selling from $45 to $88/head. Trade lambs returned $80 to $122 while heavy lambs sold to a top of $132/head.
Merino wether hoggets were mostly in average condition making $15 to $35 and the same story for Merino ewe hoggets selling from $11 to $41 with a skin while the best Crossbred hoggets topped out at $45/head.
Boner ewes ranged from $2 to $16 while medium to heavy ewes returned $15 to $35 with the exception of two small pens of heavy full wool ewes reaching $55 and most rams sold for $10/head.

MUCHEA CATTLE REPORT 20/11/2023
Total Yarding 1,121
Numbers were down to 1121 this week. Local cattle again were well represented with yearlings offered in big sale lots and improved supplies of cows also drafted in big lines. A good run of pastoral bulls were on offer and only the odd pen of pastoral steers and heifers.
The usual buying group was in attendance with a return of 2 semi regular buyers who have been inactive at Muchea for a while and an extra feedlotter from the south all helping to keep a falling market of recent weeks buoyant.
Young heifers saw a modest rise of 5c while feeder and prime cows enjoyed gains of 8/10c/kg. all other categories were on par with recent weeks.
Vealer steers returning to the paddock ranged from 190c to 228c and to processers and feedlots up to 240c/kg. Vealer heifers to restockers made 108c to 142c and heavier types to feedlots and abattoirs sold from 130c to a top of 210c/kg. Yearling steers to feeders were selling from 140c to 230c while heavier steers to processors returned 180c to 202c/kg. Yearling heifers to feedlots started at 140c up to 210c and to the abattoirs made 126c to 200c/kg.
Grown steers were selling from 146c to 206c while grown heifers made 130c to 166c/kg. Feeder weight cows were ranged from 60c to 148c while prime cows sold to a top of 164c/kg.
Shipping bulls realised 188c and mature bulls returned 130c to 170c/kg.

We are grateful for the announcement today by the Hon Jackie Jarvis MLC, Minister for Agriculture and Food, for the eID Infrastructure Grant.
At Muchea Livestock Centre, we have taken preparatory steps to support the sheep and goat industry in the rollout of mandatory eIDs. We have awarded the contract for five three-way draft scanners to be installed in two phases to Allflex Australia. The grant announced today will support us in minimising the cost of the equipment and installation to our organisation and to industry.
We will also have to modify our infrastructure to fit in this new technology in our sheep yards. WAMIA is working closely with the users of the MLC sheep yard to ensure that the installation of the equipment is completed with user input and with minimal disruption to trade and store sales in MLC. We thank you for your patience while we work to improve the biosecurity traceability outcomes for WA.
We are very excited with our pilot project – the planned installation of our first scanning equipment in the first quarter of 2024. This pilot will demonstrate how the scanning equipment will work with eID tags on sheep at MLC.
Watch this space for more details on the pilot project!
