Ennis Mart, Weanling Bulls, & Heifers, Dairy & Suckling Stock, Runners, Calves & Sheep.
All Day
Ennis Mart Tuesday 3rd September 2019
Big sale today with 750 head on offer the week after the Show & Sale. The trade for the bulls was solid with strong shipper activity and farmer activity in this ring. The heifer trade was easier with the exception of good quality store heifers in the 320kgs to 380kg bracket. A large entry of runners meet a good trade but not quite as dear as last week but some very fancy prices for the top lots yet again and heifer runners peaked at €740 and bull runners peaked at €990. Suckler pairings reached €1,670. A small entry of suck calves meet good demand.
The sheep trade was improved especially ewe lambs. Most lambs selling at €90 to €100 with a top call of €113 for 56kgs. Cull ewes made €75 to €110. Breeding ewes and lambs made to €170.
