There were good numbers of stock on offer at last Friday’s sale which included a big turnout of excellent quality Bullocks. There was a lively trade for quality lots of Bullocks with prices ranging from €2.30 per kilo up to €3.03 per kilo the tops for a Char X bullock weighing 555 kgs and fetching €1680 (€1125 over its weight) plainer lots were more difficult to clear.
