AgStock sold Angus Cows & Calves to a sale top of $2570ph on behalf of Montana Pastoral Co, Coolac.
Yearling steers topped at $1,410 and heifers $980/head while there were only 440 weaners penned a week out from an advertised weaner sale at SELX Yass.
Most lots were lightweights and there were only a few pens of medium weights. PTIC cows were very well supplied with large drafts of one line offered.
Around 100 cow and calf units were penned. There was a good buying group but most were interested in the PTIC and cow and calf runs. Prices remain strong across today’s sale.
