Market Report Ennis Mart 29/05/2018
Ennis mart hosted another large sale this week with over 750 lots coming under the hammer. Trade held firm on the previous week for the heifers of better quality but lighter plainer heifers a shade easier. Bull weanlings met an excellent demand from both farmers and shippers and were a very good trade. Calves were a very good trade and numbers larger than expected again this week. Continental bred calves made up to €550 for a 4-week-old Charolais bull calf Hereford calves made up to €390 and Angus calves sold to €370. Friesian calves sold to €225 with good demand for stronger calves in all breeds. Sheep trade dropped on last week with lamb prices also falling due to factory quotes down well on last week, spring lambs making €154 for a pen of 5 weighing 52kg. Hogget’s sold to €148 for 66kg. Ewes and Lambs made €200 for a ewe with twin lambs but numbers of these were very limited. Cull ewes sold to €138. Small entry of dairy stock on offer with both freshly calved cows and heifers and also in calf stock going under the hammer. These made from €920-€1,400. Sucklers were a strong trade with a large number of cows and calves on offer. Top price of the day was €2,500 for a 2014 born Limousin second calver with a 2-month-old Limousin bull calf at foot.

ENNIS MART
THURSDAY 31st MAY 2018
Another good entry in Ennis mart today with the good weather farmers were very active around all rings. The bullock and heifer trade has remained a steady trade with prices matching those of last week and even increasing for better quality types. Good quality bullocks met an exceptional trade for both light and heavy bullocks but more forward stores were in particular a very strong trade. Heifers again a good trade with better quality heifers and more forward types in excellent demand. Cows were met with a very strong demand with both feeder type cows and beef cows also selling extremely well although numbers were slightly smaller. Aged bulls sold to a top price of €1,910 for a LM bull weighting 850kg.
