Elders agent Joe Allen said the October 6 yarding included a good run of more than 1000 steers and the sale met with fierce competition from buyers.
Steers sold up to $2600 in the 450 kg range and good quality stock were bringing 600 to 700¢/kg.
Mr Allen said there was considerable demand from feedlots.
He said demand was driving the prices up and with the good seasonal conditions, the offering was in better condition than last month.
Pleasing result: This pen of Angus cattle sold for $2330/head at the Euroa store cattle sale.
