Agents are yarding over 11,500 cattle at three major sales on October 14, 2026. The Western Victoria Livestock Exchange in Mortlake hosted 5,338 cattle, and the Eastern Victoria Livestock Exchange in Leongatha drew 4,174 head.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Ripley Atkinson stated that the large volumes are consistent with Spring being the traditional seasonal peak in supply for southern Australia. This increase follows a Meat & Livestock Australia April Beef Producer Intentions Survey which reported steer numbers in southern Australia grew by 5.5% year-on-year.
