Yea Saleyards

Yea Saleyards is the premier livestock sales complex in North Central Victoria, recognised for its quality offering of store cattle, weaners, feature female sales and specialty bull sales.

Ideally positioned with direct access to Melbourne, Gippsland, northern and western Victoria, and interstate transport routes, Yea attracts strong competition from processors and buyers across the region.

Four leading stock agencies operate from Yea Saleyards, each supported by extensive branch networks that ensure broad market reach and excellent buyer participation. Regular feature weaner sales held in January, May and November consistently attract large buying galleries and frequently set Victorian price benchmarks.

Purpose-built to efficiently handle large numbers of livestock, Yea Saleyards combines modern infrastructure with safe cattle handling practices, providing an outstanding experience for vendors, buyers and transport operators alike.

Sale days are complemented by a popular on-site canteen and a well-established rural health outreach program, offering free health checks and support services to the farming community.

Yea Saleyards enjoys strong media exposure through its dedicated website and active Facebook page, keeping producers informed of upcoming sales, market results and industry news throughout the year.

Owned by Murrindindi Shire Council and managed by an industry-based Committee of Management, Yea Saleyards is committed to maintaining competitive selling fees while continually reinvesting operating surpluses into facility improvements, ensuring the saleyards remain among Victoria’s leading livestock selling centres for the benefit of vendors, buyers and the wider livestock industry.
