Slaughter index shows mixed throughput as spring flush fails to fire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The latest Sheep and Lamb Slaughter Index shows a mixed supply picture through September, with some regions processing more stock while others have tightened considerably. Importantly, there is little evidence yet of a broad national spring surge in slaughter, despite sheep and lamb prices falling across most processor categories over the past four weeks. For sheep, slaughter increased in four of the six states, but the movements varied considerably between the major producing regions. Western A
Global markets: US heavy steer prices fall almost four per cent in one month (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Global cattle prices moved in different directions throughout September, with Australia and Brazil firming while the US and Argentina eased. The latest EP3 global cattle price update shows Australian heavy steer values rising from 430Ac/kg lwt in August to 448Ac/kg lwt in September. That was a 4.2 per cent increase over the month.

The August to September period has continued a pattern that has been developing over recent months, with NSW providing more livestock while several of the other major sheep producing states remain constrained. For sheep, NSW yardings increased from 36 per cent in the July to August period to 42pc dur
How China is winning a bigger share of a shrinking sheepmeat exports pie (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Australian sheepmeat exports remained well below the extraordinary volumes of recent years during August, with total shipments down 27 per cent compared with both August last year and the five-year average. Unlike the beef trade, where export volumes remain historically elevated, sheepmeat is now operating in a substantially tighter supply environment and the export numbers are reflecting that change. The August result continues the softer pattern seen through the middle of 2026. July exports ha
