TUESDAY 17th JULY 2018
A small sale today with numbers down on the previous weeks trade was steady and even improved for heifers. Weanling bull trade held well with trade been driven by shippers and even more shippers present and active this week, farmers were scarce in general, quality was good today in the bull ring. Heifers were a better trade this week with some good quality sorts on offer Suckler cows with calves ranged from €1,020 up to €1,730. Sheep trade was much the same again this week reflecting the current market for lamb and factory quotes decreasing as supply increases. Cull ewes made up to €121. Hogget’s made to €119 for 60kg. Spring lambs made up to €124 for a pen of 7 weighing 54kg. Calf numbers smaller but expected with being so late in the season but trade remained firm.

Numbers up slightly today in the dry cow and heifer rings and bullock numbers holding. Trade similar in heifer ring on the previous weeks with maybe even plainer heifers slightly improved in trade. Average grade forward bullocks similar especially these with age against them. The younger store bullock held the trade very well. Feeder cows and beef cows met a steady demand with trade similar to previous week with feeder cows selling steady but more forward types with a little more life than other weeks. Aged bulls sold to a top price of €1,740 for a Hereford bull weighing 1,045kgs.
