The market maintained the positive levels of the previous auction despite the 2% appreciation of the ZAR against the USD. Kid mohair comprised 29% of the offering while 41% of the volume on offer consisted of young goat mohair.

The quantity on offer for the first three auctions of the summer selling season is unchanged from the previous year which is an indication of continued stable mohair supply despite challenging growing conditions.
