RETIREMENT CLEARANCE SALE
After 42 years building Atlex Stockyards, we are finally moving on to a slightly slower pace and looking forward to getting more ticks on our bucket lists! However, I am personally disappointed that this particular journey is coming to an end, having thoroughly enjoyed travelling around the country, working with great families, catching up with all and sundry at field days.

NSW Government Increases Drought Assistance Fund
On July the 1st, the New South Wales Government announced that they had increased the Drought Assistance Fund to $100,000. This is a big increase from $50,000 and with no repayments for two years, we’re sure it will be a big help to many farmers that have been doing it tough due to drought.

Lamb, mutton and beef cattle prices are on the up as the industry confronts the perfect culmination of drought-depleted flock and herd numbers and recent widespread rain which has sent restockers into a buying flurry.
An MLA report by senior market analyst Adam Cheetham last week, forecasts the national flock to fall 3.5 percent to 63.7 million head by next June. The lowest since 1904.
