S5 Ep41: End of year Market Wrap with Chris Howie and Matt Dalgleish

In this week's episode of the Weekly Grill, host Kerry Lonergan catches up with Matt Dalgliesh and Chris Howie to dissect what’s been a ‘goldilocks year’ for the red meat industry.

 

Reviewing some of the year's major headlines, the trio discuss:

• The lamb market’s spring flush
• Lamb fetching upwards of $330 a kilo
• Australia's highest volumes of processed beef for 47 years
• Did Trump’s yo-yo approach to tariffs have any impact?
• Indonesia’s declining herd numbers. What does this mean for the rest of the world?
• Cattle Councils review of the cattle levy
• Expanding capacities in feedlots
• The number of feedlots coming onto the market
• Skilled labour supplies in regional Australia - is it still an issue?
• Property values
• The mood in the sale yard
• … plus more

And Matt and Chris proffer their thoughts on where the smart money might be in 2026!
