More feedlot news has emerged this week, with one of Australia’s largest lotfeeders announcing plans to sell two of its feedlots.

Mort & Co has officially listed Yarranbrook and Pinegrove feedlots, along with the license for its proposed Gogango feedlot in Central Queensland. Beef Central publisher Jon Condon gives an insight into how that listing emerged.
