Horsham Regional Livestock Exchange will introduce alternating start times for its weekly sheep and lamb sales from next month. From Wednesday 2 August, every second market will move to an afternoon format beginning at 12.30pm. Sales on alternative weeks will remain at the 9.30am start time. Horsham Rural City Council’s Commercial Enterprises Co-ordinator Paul Christopher said the decision to change the start time followed consultation with livestock agents. “The later start time was tried last year and a better outcome for vendors was achieved,” he said. “By moving to afternoon sales every second week, it means that we are not running all of our sales at the same time as Hamilton’s which start at 9am. “On the other hand, the 9.30am sales every other week won’t clash with the fortnightly market days at Warracknabeal which are held in the afternoon,” Mr Christopher said.
