Masterton lamb sale 4.12

Short-term lambs sold to steady demand at Masterton last Wednesday, though long-term lambs proved to be harder work. 4000 were penned and overall prices did come back, though more so in the later pens. Buyers were mainly local, though some outside orders were also filled. Fewer blackface lines were offered, with the bulk of the yarding Romney cryptorchid, and a larger percentage of smaller types in.
