VOORUITSIGTE

Die daling in die SA wolmark die week, kan toegeskryf word aan die versterking van die Rand teenoor die vernaamste geldeenhede, asook die sywaartse beweging van die Australies mark. Wol ontvang in die makelaars se store hierdie week, is 7.3% laer vergeleke die ooreenstemmende tyd van die vorige seisoen.

Volhoubaar gesertifiseerde (RWS), goeie kwaliteit Merinowol, het weereens goeie aandag geniet op die veiling en gesorg vir gesonde kompetisie tussen kopers. Sertifisering raak meer belangrik en produsente kan gerus kennis neem van die neiging. Skakel gerus met OVK om u by te staan in die sertifiseringsproses. Produsente moet kennis neem dat die laaste wolinweegdatum van die seisoen op 12 Mei sal wees. Dit is vir katalogus CA34. Die volgende wolveiling is geskeduleer vir 14 April 2021.

FORECAST

The decrease in the SA wool market this week can be attributed to the strengthening of the Rand against the most important currencies, as well as the sideways movement of the Australian market. The receival of wool in the brokers’ stores this week is 7.3% lower, compared to the same time of the previous season.

Sustainable certified (RWS) good quality Merino wool, again enjoyed good attention on the auction and saw healthy competition amongst buyers. Certification is becoming more important and producers must take note of this trend.

That is for catalogue CA34. The next wool auction is scheduled for 14 April 2021.
