As for the wintering segment, light calves rose by $50 and were auctioned to $7,050, which meant an increase of 0.71% in price. The intermediate category was maintained at $6,700, while the heaviest ones resigned $300 and were sold at $5,500 per
kilo alive.
“Great shot this Monday, a great shot. With very good values for wintering, there was a lot of wintering. On the other hand, there was little cash flow, so the values reflected the scarcity of supply,” summarized Pedro Pérez, who was in charge of lowering the hammer during the auction
.
In this regard, some 1,850 cattle, between 400 fat and 1,450 wintering animals, were on the trail of Rural de Jesús María, and these were the prices that were established in the first livestock auction in the month of May.
