MUCHEA CATTLE REPORT 9th September, 2013 Landmark reports 1,298 cattle sold at Muchea, Monday 9th September including 110 sold in the calf yards. The overall quality improved this week with a better representation of local yearlings and cows coming forward. Heavy slaughter bulls remained equal whilst lines suitable for live export firm with continued additional competition. The few grain assisted lots barely held recent rates. Best quality British bred store steers improved to sell to 227c.kg. With the exception of odd pens heifers were equal. Local heavy cows were well sought after to peak at 140c/kg, however it was best medium and light pastoral cows with good cover that made best gains of 8-10c/kg in places. A fair yarding of good quality young pastoral heifers again received strong enquiry to remain fully firm.
