Blackall combined agents yarded 1328 head at the Blackall’s fat and store sale on Friday.  Fat cattle followed suit with other major centres across the eastern seaboard and strengthened considerably by up to 20c/kg.  Feeder cattle were in fair supply and competition pushed prices to a top of 280c for steers and 235c for heifers. Store cattle attracted strong competition from re-stockers and one major northern NSW processor on the light weaners to go onto feed. Cattle were drawn from the Cloncurry, Hughenden, Muttaburra, Winton, Longreach, Isisford, Yaraka and local districts.
