Tuesday March 26th, 2024
Big sale today with over 1,200 cattle on offer, which included 300 calves. Good calves were a fine trade, with poorer calves very hard to sell. FR calves made from €1 to €115 & HEX calves made from €10 to €390. Continental calves made to €555. A reasonable entry of dairy cows made from €1,390 to €1,910. Suckler stock made to €2,330 for pairs and in calf lots made to €1,580. Trade not quite as lively in the bull ring as shippers were quieter and farmers weren’t as active, but still quality lots were a very fine trade. The heifer trade held similar to last week. An organic sale met a fine demand with heifers hitting €4.07/kg and bullocks making to €4.08/kg, as it was mostly weanlings on offer.
