VOORUITSIGTE

Ten spyte van die verswakking in die Australiese wolmark, het die Suid-Afrikaanse wolmark die week verbeter. 'n Bydraende faktor tot die verbetering, is die effense verswakking van die Rand teenoor die vernaamste geldeenhede. Die verwagting is dat die mark sywaarts behoort te beweeg in die kort termyn, mits die Rand teen die huidige vlakke bly verhandel. Wol ontvang in die makelaars se store hierdie week, is 4.4% hoër, 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. Ons nooi produsente uit om te skakel met OVK, om u by te staan in die sertifiseringsproses. Die volgende veiling is geskeduleer vir die 1ste September 2021.

FORECAST

Despite the weakening of the Australian wool market, the South African wool market still managed to improve on this auction. A contributing factor for the improvement was the slight weakening of the Rand against the most influential currencies. The expectation for the short term is that the market should move sideways, provided that the Rand keep trading at its current levels. The receival of wool in the brokers’ stores this week is 4.4% higher, 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. We invite farmers to contact OVK for assistance in the certification process. The next auction is scheduled for the 1st of September 2021.
