Tool 3.8 MLA market information

Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) provides an independent source of livestock market data, collected directly by MLA’s National Livestock Reporting Service (NLRS) Livestock Market Officers who attend major prime and store livestock markets each week, producing detailed reports for each market.

Visit MLA Prices & Markets and select the species and report type from the options on the page. Information is available on:

  • Sheep and lamb markets: NLRS provides accurate and timely market information for sheep producers. Livestock Market Officers attend 30 sheep and lamb markets throughout Australia each week – collecting, collating and analysing market data.
  • Prime sheep sales: NLRS provides detailed weekly reporting of prices and yardings for individual stock categories sold at major sheep sales. Reports include ‘on the ground’ commentary explaining local market trends.
  • Store sheep markets: NLRS reports on a wide range of regular store markets and seasonal weaner sales.
  • Over the hooks (OTH) sales: OTH sheep reports are published monthly providing information on key components of the sheepmeat trade and a description of market conditions.
  • Summary reports: provide an overview of market trends and key indicator prices. They are freely available and are published in rural papers.
  • Detailed reports: are available as downloadable information. These reports contain an analysis of market trends and comprehensive prices.
