GRACEMERE CATTLE SALE Wednesday 28th July 2021
CQLX Gracemere agents had an increased yarding of 3,659 head this week, comprising of 1802 steers, 1208 heifers, 399 cows and 233 bulls. Cattle came from the usual draw area between Collinsville and Miriam Vale and west to Bauhinia Downs. Quality was good overall, as was condition, with only a few plain conditioned coastal cattle on offer. Competition was strong from the usual feeders and processors plus an increase in restocker activity.
