COMMENTS / AANMERKING:

2020 started with a very positive note for The House of Fibre and his mohair farmers. Good summer rains have fallen in most of the production area, although the drought is not broken yet. The House of Fibre offered 70% of the total offering of the first sale of the season, but the best news is the fact that the market opened in a very positive way, with the complete offering sold at R 233 .23/kg average. That is a 4% increase on the previous winter sale in December 2019, but still 16% shy of the R279.92/kg in February 2019. The tendency of the previous winter season is continuing with the emphasis on microns and fineness. The EGT clips should benefit out of this. For instance, the best price of the day at House of Fibre was for a 23-micron, 89% clean yield bin at R530.00/kg, but a D-length, 21-micron bin sold for R505.20! Strong adults were the only category without a price increase. Mohair farmers that farm with wool sheep must apply at their field officer as quickly as possible to be inspected as RWS sustainable, there is only 6 months left!

2020 begin op ‘n baie goeie noot vir The House of Fibre en sy sybokhaarboere. Goeie somer reënval het oor die grootste deel van die produksie gebied geval, alhoewel die droogte nog nie gebreek is nie. The House of Fibre het 70% van die totale aanbod op die eerste veiling aangebied, maar die beste nuus is dat die hele aanbod verkoop het teen R 233 .23/kg gemiddeld, wat ‘n verbetering is van 4% op die vorige winter veiling in Desember 2019. Dit is egter nog 16% kort van die goeie gemiddeld van R279.92/kg van Februarie 2019! Die klem op mikrons en fynheid van die winterseisoen word voortgesit, met veral EGT getoetsde skeersels wat daaruit sal baat. Die hoogste prys van die dag by House of Fibre was vir ‘n bin van 23 mikron en 89% skoonopbrengs @ R530.00/kg! Daar het egter ook ‘n D-lengte bin van 21 mikron verkoop teen R505.20/kg! Sterk grootbokke was die enigste ouderdomsgroep wat nie gebaat het op die prysstyging nie. Bokhaar boere wat ook met wolskape boer moet so gou as moontlik by hulle veld beampte aansoek doen om besoek te word om as RWS volhoubaar ge-ondersoek te word, daar is slegs 6 maande oor!
