Gracemere Market Report 30/11/2022
GRACEMERE CATTLE SALE WEDNESDAY 30th NOVEMBER 2022
With the current wet conditions, CQLX Combined Agents yarded 987 head today, comprising of 580 Steers, 270 Heifers, 110 Cows, 12 Cows & Calves and 15 Bulls. Cattle were largely drawn from local vendors as well as North to Mackay and Collinsville. Due to the rain, the buyer’s panel was made up of mainly restockers with a few backgrounders operating, which still provided good competition. Slaughter cattle softened from last week while the lighter and feeder cattle held steady.
