An entry of wonderful quality and another exciting trade, maybe the edge was off slightly from last weeks flyer and there are some big store sales around at the moment, however, the level of the Beef trade is working its magic and keeping stores at a very high level.

A smaller entry maintained the recent very fast trade with Cows to 219ppkg for Parker Cattle and £1852 per head for Tom Kemp Farms Bazadaise Bull

Important notice to Farmers - please get Farm Assured if you can, it makes a real difference.

 

A bit of interest for Cows and Calves with RM Shaw & AJ Goate realising £2280 for a Lim x Cow and Lim x Heifer Calf. WE Chantry & Son £1880 for a Shorthorn Cow & Twin Heifer Calves and Parker Cattle £1680 for a Hereford Heifer & Calf.

Another good trade, just the edge off the Bulls but Heifer Calves very expensive. CW Potter sold Blue heifers to £350 and Bulls to £348. Alex Dann was up to £300 for a Blue Heifer while Davd Parsons A.Angus reached £250. Herefords from CB & SC Gapp sold to £192

Good to see Ewes & Lambs forward with a great amount of interest being the highlight. Lambs remaining consistent but Cull Ewes increasing in value.
