BLACKALL PRIME AND STORE SALE REPORT
11th SEPTEMBER 2014
A mixed quality yarding of 2672 head of cattle made up this week’s sale and while
most categories of young cattle lost ground, better quality weaner steers remained
firm at 210c. Increased competition between the processors kept the market firm on
killable cattle while other markets across the state corrected by 5-10c.
