CULL COWS (22)

A nice show and a bit of quality met a fine trade with Cows to 398ppkg, 395ppkg & £2945 for Amy Kinge.  Around half the entry were over £2k - what are the Breeders worth ???

BREEDING CATTLE

There is a lot of interest in these, for obvious reasons- high scrap values, shortage of cattle, tax efficiencies, high end prices etc etc.

Strong Blues with a bit of shape won the day with RJ Barnes at £750, CB & SC Gapp at £715 and CW Potter to £690. Charolais from Alex Dann sold to £725 and R.
