Store cattle prices have taken a further price hit at Yea today as feed pressure becomes another negative for the embattled market.


Prices were quoted as $50 to $100 lower than a month ago at Yea, and people who had been to more recent store sales such as Ballarat, Pakenham and Euroa said it had performed worse than those markets.


“You couldn’t put in the paper what I would like to say about this sale,’’ Mansfield agent Jamie Beckingsale, Nutrien, said.
