Gracemere sees strong yardings and competitive markets

Gracemere Combined Agents saw an increased yarding of 5012 head at this week’s Prime and Store Sale, comprising 1745 Steers, 2499 Heifers, 510 Cows, 27 Cows and Calves, 149 Mickies, and 82 Bulls.

A larger yarding came to hand on Wednesday, 10 December for the final sale of the year.

The slaughter market eased due to upcoming Meatworks closures.

The store market remained highly competitive, supported by ongoing seasonal conditions.

That concludes the Gracemere sales for 2025.

Have a safe and Merry Christmas!
