CENTRAL TABLELANDS LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE - CTLX PRIME CATTLE SALE DATE: TUESDAY 18TH JUNE 2024 SALEYARD: CTLX CARCOAR TOTAL YARDING:3000 In a similar sized yarding, the market stalled as buyers offered considerably reduced-price levels compared to previous sales. While there were bursts of bidding across yearling steer categories, the prerequisite was that the steers had to be very well-bred. Not all buyers were operating at the sale with some major processors and feedlots present but not operating. The absence of a major player in the feeder steer market at the sale led to a downward trend in prices. Feeder steers underwent a price correction of 10c to 15c/kg, particularly affecting the medium weights and they ranged from 310c to 382kg. Feeder heifers encountered difficulties in attracting feedlot buyers, slipping by 15c to 20c/kg and selling between 220c and 310c/kg. Trade cattle remained limited and domestic processors were not prepared to chase the sale and were valued between 268c and 351c/kg. Re-stockers displayed some interest across lightweight categories, but at lower levels. The lighter weights selling from 300c to 350c/kg. In the export market, competition was very patchy, leading to a decrease in prices particularly for heavy heifers with good finish and shape. Heavy steers and bullocks were sold between 290c and 350c/kg, while heavy heifers ranged from 240c to 238c/kg. Heavy cows were in short supply, with most big cows lacking fat cover. Prices experienced a 10c to 15c/kg decline, selling between 210c and 241c/kg.Leaner types sold at 120c to 205c/kg.
