00:00Hi, and welcome back to another episode of The Land's Last Loft, where we look at the

00:08Fort Valley stunt sale trends and results.

00:10I'm journalist Anca Depi.

00:12And I'm Livestock Editor, Rebecca Nudge.

00:15It has been a really hectic couple of weeks.

00:18We've had everything from a new average set for the season, right through to the DAWPA

00:22Nationals at Dubbo.

00:23Now, Becca, I heard it was quite a busy day last week at Melamara.

00:28You were actually on the ground cover, is it?

00:29I'll teach you how to go.

00:31Yeah, lucky enough to be there.

00:32Very impressive sale.

00:34Average $27,227.

00:38That is so impressive this season.

00:39Top prize of $140,000.

00:40Well done.

00:41$140,000.

00:42Thank you very much.

00:44$50,000.

00:45That's not as extreme as previous years, but so consistent throughout.

00:50And know where the buyer's from?

00:52Everywhere.

00:53Western Australia.

00:54A lot from Western Australia, a lot from Queensland, as well as locally.

00:58A lot of sales in that $40,000 to $70,000 mark, which is what would have boosted the

01:03average.

01:04But, yeah, a static result at the start, though, we're just through.

01:07That's awesome.

01:08They're certainly a stud that's making a big impact on the beef industry, that's for sure.

01:12A bit of 110, a bit of 10, a bit of 15.

01:15Bill Willer also reported a very good result, clearing all 97 bulls to a top of 120,000

01:22to average 22,876.

01:25Shredbridge Wagyu was also very impressive.

01:28All 169 yearling and two-year-olds sold to a $55,000 top and strong 20,461 average.

01:36It's only the stud's second sale, and the result was on par with last year.

01:40Another notable bull sale was Ben Nevis at Walker.

01:46A yearling topped the sale, selling for 100,000, with the 83 lots averaging 15,600.

01:53And Hazeldine recorded a full clearance of 142 bulls to top at 25,000 and averaged 13,106.

02:02Ram sales have also started well.

02:05Haddon Rigg topped at 14,000 and averaged 2,570, with 263 of 281 polled and Horn Marinos

02:15selling at auction.

02:16Trigger Vale topped at 12,000 and averaged 2,803 across 197 of 230 polled Marinos and

02:24also averaged 1,618 for 86 of 97 white suffix.

02:30Felix had a full clearance across 204 polled Dorsets and white suffix to average 2,800.

02:37Cranbrook polled Dorsets also had a good result, topping at 15,250 to average 2,473.

02:46That's all we have time for this week.

02:48You can catch the full results and reports via the Lens website.

02:51Yeah, another big couple of weeks coming up, of course.

02:54You can see us out and about at a heap of different sales, everything from Rosehill

02:58Park, Polled Woonook, Tadda Keel and Kerin Poll.

03:02And we'll see you next time.
