Market Highlights - Tuesday, 18 November 2025

Published on 19 November 2025

A reduced yarding on last week’s number did not detract from the strong prices with a little over 3,500 head of cattle consigned through Roma Saleyards.

After good rain across the region, the market continued to kick with all the regular processors, feedlotters and backgrounders present and actively bidding across the board.

The bullock market continued its climb with several quality runs on offer.

The heifer job was firm to dearer.

Cattle were drawn from the local supply district including Roma, Injune and Morven as well as multiple lines of cattle from the west including Quilpie, Hungerford, Winton and Cunnamulla.

The selection and quality of cattle on offer once again solidified Roma Saleyards as the marketplace of choice.

The Seawright family offloaded a run of Santa Gertrudis steers and a pen of Angus cross steers for an average of 538c/kg to weigh 418kg for a return of $2,250/hd.

Based out of Tingun, three pens of the steers fetched a straight 540c/kg weighing in at 420kg for a return of $2,268/hd.
