VOORUITSIGTE

Die daling in die SA wolmark hierdie week, kan grootliks toegeskryf word aan  die versterking van die Rand teenoor die vernaamste geldeenhede, asook die verswakking in die Australiese wolmark. Dit wil egter voorkom asof die Australiese wolmark wel besig is om te stabiliseer, wat 'n positiewe invloed op die Suid-Afrikaanse wolmark behoort te hê. As gevolg van die lae volumes wol ontvang die afgelope tyd, is daar besluit om katalogis 4 met een week aan te skuif. Katalogisse 4 en 5 sal dan gelyktydig verkoop word op die 15de September. Wol ontvang in die makelaars se store hierdie week, is 8.0% laer, vergeleke die ooreenstemmende tyd van die vorige seisoen. Een van die redes vir die laer ontvangstes, kan die gevolg wees van die erge koue wat die afgelope weke ondervind is in groot produksiegebiede en skeertye dus aangepas moes word.

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 15 September 2021.

FORECAST

This week's decreased in the SA wool market, can mainly be attributed to the strengthening of the Rand against the most influential currencies, as well as the weakening of the Australian wool market. It seems though, that the Australian wool market is busy to stabilise, which should have a positive influence on the South African wool market. Because of the low wool recievals recently, a decision was made to move on catalogue 4 by one week. Catalogues 4 and 5 will therefore simultaneously be on sale on the 15th of September. The receival of wool in the brokers’ stores this week is 8.0% lower, compared to the same time of the previous season. One of the main reasons for the low receivals, could be duo to the recent extremely cold conditions that was experienced in large production areas, which forced farmers to reschedule shearing times.

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 15 September 2021.
