Gracemere Market Report 18/08/2021
GRACEMERE CATTLE SALE WEDNESDAY 18TH AUGUST 2021
CQLX Gracemere agents had an increased yarding of 3,756 head this week. Cattle came from across all the usual Central Queensland Districts between Gin Gin & Mackay and west to Monto and Dingo. Quality, whilst mixed and made up of small vendor runs, was good overall. Condition on some lines showed the effects of a fading season. The normal processor and feeder buyers were present and continued depth in the restocker panel.
