SA Livestock Exchange Calf sale - June 22
A VERY small yarding of locally-bred calves sold to extreme demand from a large gallery of agents, feeders, restockers and backgrounders.
Butchers were in attendance and they bid freely on the few lightweight calves that had the requisite condition.
Store buyers from Orroroo and Mount Pleasant were very keen to secure well-bred calves and values lifted as much as $30 a head.
Kookaburra Pastoral Co, Tarlee, sold three light to medium weight, Murray Grey steer calves to average $521.67/hd.
Quotations: Bobbies $15-$130, Light $180-$500, Medium $500-$580, Heavy $580-$800.
