Australia rawhide decline in demand tanners have lower prices

In Australia, since July, the slaughter of beef cattle in the eastern states gradually increase at the end of October reached 141,294 head - the highest production so far this year. Coincidentally, the data also happens to be the highest value in 12 months, after the last year is the week of October 28 slaughter (142,000 bulls).

Although the data is relatively high by recent standards, earlier this year and throughout 2011 slaughter rate has been low, broadly speaking, to rebuild herds and to retain heavy-duty female varieties, as well as facing a very good season want to increase the weight of steers held in conditions.

Statistics according to year-to-date basis, the State of Victoria in 2012-2013 so far has processed more than 30 million head, almost 5 percent increase over the same period last year. Seasonal prospects in most areas of eastern Australia will also push more and more cattle to the slaughterhouse - especially now rebuilding herds, many paddocks to accommodate the number of cattle more than two years ago.

Queensland last week's slaughter capacity of 74,607 head, remains unchanged from a week ago, but fell by 1 percent compared with this time last year. The proportion of cows (Queensland state of Australia the only metric record) less than 30%, and this year most of the time. New South Wales last week slaughter increased by two percentage points, up to 34,444 head; Tasmania, an increase of 3 percentage points, up to 3,985 head; South Australia fell by 1 percent, up to 8,047 head.

The weak demand for raw hides, leather makers are not interested in higher prices. Pricing has not changed in the past few weeks, the rawhide. In Queensland, the same as in the past, no lice area (TFA) 35/37 kg weight cowhide / public cowhide prices steady at $ 1.93 per kilogram. In New South Wales, 23/27 kilograms of public and leather / cowhide trading price of $ 2.20 per kilogram, in the state of Victoria, compared with $ 2.48 per kilogram.
