Native crosses depending on the breed and sex 1.70-1.80 and continental crosses 1.75-1.85 per kilo for strong stores. Both dairy bred

400 kilo cont x dairy steers will be at least £1100/1200 currently!

280 kilo dairy bred 12 month old stirks are now making £840/70 head! ( steers )

And every week they are getting dearer and dearer!

The bottom will fall out of the job at some point but no signs of that happening for several months at least as the cattle are just not about!
