A record 4,000 Northern Territory Brahman steers and spayed heifers sold as a single lot on AuctionsPlus, worth about $6.6 million at 474.3c/kg liveweight. It is the largest single lot in the platform's history.
The price was above the going rate for similar boat steers ex Darwin, which was around 455-460c/kg.
The sale shows strong demand for northern Australian cattle for export, but it is a single transaction with limited effect on global feed or commodity prices.
