The moderate overall increase was the result of stronger demand in southern and western areas of the shire, while increases in eastern areas of the shire were more minor. • Despite drought conditions, the weight of available rural sales evidence particularly in South West and Central Queensland indicate positive market conditions on the back of low interest rates and high rural commodity prices.
