Just the same as a butcher with the prize tickets in the window. It pays to show your customers that they are eating the best.Which they could mount right above the spinning kebab grill.
What for, narrowest sheep on the fell!!It has a rosette…
Get the tweezers out and you might get to 4 digits on themI’ve a pen full of cast tups feeding here. It’s not a good sign of trade at the moment!
The Turks down here would definitely love a rosette 🏵Just the same as a butcher with the prize tickets in the window. It pays to show your customers that they are eating the best.
I reckon the track suit operatives will appreciate a “proper” kebab

I havnt been to a club for 8 years but the Turks would probably try and wear a rosette while saying “no splash, no gash” in the toilets
Yes i know,but the fact remains they always make more money for similar carcase sheep. There is no reason for this other than people want to look at defined black and white,rather than grey/brown/sandy colour,and why the tweezers come out for these Swale tups. Even CTA at Hexham yesterday was telling people that white face Mules milk better to get them shifted.Which will most likely go to a Texel tup and bear a lamb with a white face and the first thing the slaughterhouse will do is chop it off, the facial markings make no difference to the lambs carcase, it's just fashion.
Less inputs less output but it might be more valuable ,,,or is that just daftApologies if its already been discussed on this thread but is there any chance of beef and lamb prices rising on the back of increased cereal and fertiliser prices.
Does it work finishing cattle on £200/t barley? Grazing animals on grass getting 2 units per day Nitrogen. Chucking on 100 units of N for a 6 week cut of silage?
The fertiliser price is currently driving the wheat price for the first time I can remember. Its normally fert going up on back of wheat prices.
Can the same happen with the meat industry? The pig and poultry guys must be getting hit hard.
There are definitely other more sustainable ways to do it. We however seem to be on a hamster wheel with our grazing system and silage production highly reliant on N.Less inputs less output but it might be more valuable ,,,or is that just daft
The meat processing industry has never cared about our input costs before. I can’t see why they will start now. The only thing that drives prices up is less product being available that there is a market for.Apologies if its already been discussed on this thread but is there any chance of beef and lamb prices rising on the back of increased cereal and fertiliser prices.
