461 SLAUGTHER CATTLE SOLD
YOUNG BULLS TO 208.5p
OTMS TO 176.5p
STEERS TO 215.5p HEIFERS TO 248.5p
OVERALL AVERAGE LEVELLED AT 170.68p
Young Bulls - 222 averaged 162.92p
A massive entry of young bulls on offer today as the Spring 2013 born crop really gets
underway.
The top end quality was excellent although some smart bred bulls were being sold well
before time as producers are very conscious of the 16 month ruling at many Abattoirs and
not getting them too big!!
Trade today was exceptionally sticky with many buyers full from sales earlier in the week
and slow sales of meat.
Trade today was back on the week by anything up to 15p per kilo.
The Friesians were less affected and many over 16 month bulls still fairing much better than
they would deadweight as they would be paid as cow price!!
Top bulls today were consigned by Rachel and Doug Gascoine and Jeff Comer, Swindon who
both sold Limousins to 208.5p - £1276.02 and £1132.16 respectively. The Gascoines also
sold others at 205.5p - £1159.02 and 202.5p - £1103.63. Robert Holmes sold Limousins to
207.5p - £1288.58. David Duffin sold Limousins to 207.5p - £1093.53. John and Richard
Warner sold Limousins to 205.5p - £1103.54 and 205.5p - £1096.67.
Top grossing bull today was sold by Stuart Harness who sold Limousins to £1544.22.
Today E grades 200p plus with U+’s 190-199p, -U grades 186-189p and R grades 180-185p,
R grades sold from 172-180p and O+’s 158-168p.
Best Friesians 140-150p and plainer types 130-138p with real plain sorts 118-126p and
horrors either side 100p.

Steers - 56 averaged 175.26p
A very small entry of steers and quality exceptionally thin on the ground.
Trade today on the back of plummeting deadweight prices was really sticky with only the
nice bred sorts attracting any real demand.
Stan Evans sold Limousins to 215.5p - £1364.12 with Blues to 214.5p - £1404.98. David
Nickson sold Blues to 214.5p - £1512.23, Ian Kirk sold Blondes to 214.5p - £1370.66.
Today U+ grades sold from 207.5p with –U grades 198-206p and R grades 190-197p, O+’s
sold from 182-188p and –O’s 160-170p.
Very fat and exceptionally plain (stores) sold from 140-150p.
Without doubt things are very difficult indeed!!
