A reminder that there will be no livestock sales next week. We are all looking forward to spending quality time with our families over the long weekend and back next week for a couple of maintenance projects in the saleyard to keep it in tip top shape.
We wish everyone a safe Easter weekend, with wonderful memories made during the time spent with your family and friends.
We hope to see you back in the Muchea Livestock Centre all refreshed for cattle sales on 8 April 2024 and sheep sales on 9 April 2024.

MUCHEA CATTLE REPORT 25/03/2024
Total Yarding 850
Numbers lifted marginally by 153 head on last week. Heifers of all ages, mostly yearlings made up half of the sale and the rest of the sale had a reasonably even split between all other categories. The buying field consisted mainly of regular processor and feedlot buyers however very few long term paddock buyers presented themselves allowing light calves with small frames to ease a further 10/15c while most categories showing feedlot or finished slaughter weights gained with demand.
Weaner steers weighing under 280kg ranged from 150c to 262c and weighing over 280kg realized 306c while weaner heifers showing condition sold from 140c to 210c/kg. Yearling steers weighing under 330kg started at 180c up to 292c gaining 10c while over 330kg also lifted 10c topping the market at 322c/kg. Most Yearling heifers ranged from 142c to 224c remaining firm with one exceptional pen of 7 heifers making 288c/kg.
Well finished grown steers sold from 180c to 226c while grown heifers lifted 10/12c selling from 138c to 222c/kg. Very plain light weight cows started at 50c and with better frames and breeding sold up to 156c/kg. Medium cows gained 8/10c to return 128c to 204c and prime heavy cows sold from 132c to 190c/kg.
Shipping bulls stayed consistent to recent values selling from 150c to 220c while slaughter bulls gained 10c with many making over 200c ranging from 180c to 220c/kg. And just a reminder that there will be no cattle sale at Muchea next week because of the Easter weekend.
