The annual Weanling Show & Sale proved a huge success but the quality on offer was super especially in the bull ring. Heifers were not all out as high in quality but again quality meet an excellent trade. There is possible value to be got in lighter ‘R’ grade bulls and heifers. Finding homes for the top quality lots not an issue but customers scarce for the average lighter lots in bulls and heifers. Big increase in runner numbers and these an improved trade especially the heifers. Runner heifers made to €780 with bulls making to €900. Suckler cows and calves made to €1,470. Big sheep sale yet again and lambs easier by €5 per head. Lambs were generally making €1.90 to €2 per kg with a tops of €2.19/kg. Cull ewes made €47 to €108.

Numbers back from the Weanling Show & Sale last week but again quality lots meet a fine trade and lesser lots are still the hardest sold and some of these may represent value for purchasers.

Suckler pairs made to €1,840 and in-calf stock made to €1,505. Lamb trade steady on last weeks trade with a tops of €2.18/kg and averaging out at €2/kg.

Thursday 30th August 2018
Bigger numbers again today with over 900 lots on offer. Again trade for quality stock holding very well and plainer stock a tough trade and stock that do not tick the boxes in the bullock and heifer ring, especially those that will not be finished under 30 months, are a difficult trade. Forward cattle holding a very good trade. A greater mix of Friesian and Continental cows in the cull cow ring. Very large entry of aged bulls and these were a good trade and made to €2.21/kg and averaged €1.63/kg. Tops in this ring Limousin Bull 1,130kgs at €1,940.
