Market summary
The quick read

In the recent comparable rows, results most often reference the Heifers class, the 251-350 reported weight band, and Temuka. Treat the benchmark as context: weight, class, quality, region and sale date can materially change an individual result.
What this means
Devon are currently reading at $4.06/kg liveweight in the latest weekly benchmark. That is 0.5% above last week and not yet comparable with 52 completed weeks earlier.
How to use it
Use this as a market starting point, then account for breed, weight, yard, quality, transport, fees and the specific sale conditions.
What affects price
Weight, breed, cattle class, quality, condition, region, buyer demand and sale timing can all move an individual result away from the benchmark.
Coverage and caveat
The line is a cleaned weekly saleyard price series from 27 Feb 2023 to 15 Jun 2026. Public reporting varies and the benchmark may not include every lot sold.
