Ennis Mart Tuesday 24th March 2020

A sale took place on Tuesday last the 24th March at Ennis with over 1,100 head of stock on offer and which was operated under extremely tight protocols in relation to social distancing and it went very well despite the restrictions.  Overall trade was pretty positive and stronger than the week previous, as men were anxious to source stock.  Calves meet a strong trade today but mostly Whiteheads and Continentals available today.  Pairs in the suckler ring made to €1,780.  Hoggets a tougher trade and generally made €115 to €125 with a few exceptional lots making to €147.  Cull ewes made €55 to €125.
