Mallee a bit off but what are lamb prices there. The daughter sold the last of her lambs last week 85# 4.40$ per 100 weight. live weight ,cull ewe 130# 2.60$per 100 weight.
Cant believe what the consumer must be paying,be nice if that is the new normal. On a 5 to 1 ratio to cows and 175% lamb crop thats $2800 per cow.

Lamb $8 per kilo dressed mtton older sheep $6.50 dressed per kg

What other marketing forums do you follow Mallee? Or anyone else.
Do I read correctly that you found info from UK forums?
Marketing posts on NAT are getting few and far between.

That would make our lamb price like $9.70/kilo live or over $20/kilo dressed , at about 48/50 % yield .guess better enjoy ,cant see the price staying that high..
Water bowls froze here ,guess you dont have that to worry about.

From my market commentator this morning over 900,000 metric tonne added to Russia 20/21 wheat will weigh heavily on market with it without taxes.

Didn’t realize this missed it on market wires
