Hunters – July update
Hello Possum Hunters
Here is an update on the state of the industry.
The current fur price is stable. There is unlikely to be any upward movement in price. In fact market conditions could see a price drop mid-season.
We anticipate continuing to buy at current volumes for the remainder of the season.
Demand for fur skins has declined globally by 50%. There is currently little demand for possum on the international market.
We are buying green skins for fur recovery. The price is dependent on size and fur cover.
