The largest weekly commercial cattle offering in almost ten months failed to dampen online prices, with the 21,481 head offered through AuctionsPlus largely selling to robust demand, especially through the young heifer lines. The main feature of the 26% week-on-week jump in offerings was through the PTIC lines, which made up almost 25% of the market.
