Agents Boyd O’Brien Bartholomew reported a yarding of 662 head of cattle. The market improved again across all descriptions. A quality line of cows came to hand and sold to very strong competition from all major processors. Heavy ox and heifers were in short supply, selling to dearer trends. Bulls were in strong demand. Feeders were in short supply and sold to a stronger market than last week. Backgrounders and vealers were dearer with plenty of competition from restockers.
