Prices for all wool types increased at todays North Island wool sale. Of note was the continued increase for the finer combing Hogget’s on the back of strong demand for these types. The Europeans have continued to buy, and the Indians have been lifting their prices as our market has improved. The Chinese buyers appear to be dipping their “toes in the water” after a long period of subdued business which is pleasing to see. Competition was again well spread with 98% of the offering sold.
