There are 2360 cattle going under the hammer at Kempsey Stock and Land's weaner sale today.
It's the second weaner sale for the year to 'catch the cattle that had not been able to get out due to the wet weather'.
Laurie Argue from Kempsey Stock and Land said it had been a 'terrible' wet season in the region where beef producers had not been able to get a break.
