Friday December 6th Cattle Prices Report

 

There was a very good entry of top quality cattle on offer at last Friday’s Christmas Bonanza Sales for Heifers and Bullocks. There was a good attendance of customers, a firm trade in particular for quality lots resulting in a good clearance of lots. Prices for both Bullocks and Heifers were well improved from the previous week, while there was no major change in the trade for Dry Cows. The final sale for Bullocks, Heifers and Dry Cows is Friday next December 13th at 11 a.m. Annual Christmas draw takes place on Wednesday December 18th after the sheep sale. All customers who bought or sold in 2013 will be automatically included in the draw. Full details of the draw are up our website.
