Gracemere Market Report 25/08/2021
GRACEMERE CATTLE SALE WEDNESDAY 25TH AUGUST 2021
CQLX Gracemere agents had a decreased yarding of 2,978 head this week. Cattle were drawn as far north as Collinsville, Belyando and the usual local areas. Quality, although good overall, was very mixed in some sections. The competition was strong from the normal processors and feeders which saw cow prices improve and bulls ease on last sale rates. Values for most other classes struggled to maintain the prices of the previous sale.
