Bulls would be a bit more difficult this week. Last week’s trade on the bulls was perhaps better than people realised. Prices were as follows: Light steers: Also rans to 121.0p; Overall ave 121.0p.

Steers sold up to 188.5p per kilo, heifers up to 190.0p per kilo and bulls up to 184.5p per kilo. More needed.

All sorts met ready competition despite the fact that deadweight prices are being trimmed.

The trade is under pressure at the present time with everybody complaining of a lack of shop sales. Having said this, the prices on Monday would compare more than favourably with deadweight quotations with steers peaking at 179.0p per kilo, heifers 195.5p per kilo and bulls 167.0p per kilo. There were several over aged cattle in the entry and several slip heifers, which would reduce averages. Sat, 23 May 2009 10:00:00 +0100 35e248c10eb46c5277c4b9847fff2a18
