AuctionsPlus has announced a new monthly online sale dedicated to commercial Wagyu cattle. This initiative follows a recent Wagyu sale on StockLive that successfully cleared nearly 400 head of cattle.
Why it matters
Previous Wagyu sales on general platforms have often resulted in prices falling below typical paddock sale averages. This new dedicated format aims to provide a more specialised marketplace for cattle producers.
The recent StockLive auction featured eight lots and attracted close to 20 registered bidders. Individual lines during the event recorded a maximum of 30 bids.
