I was hoping it was going upwardsMight be right! Present systems not going to work for much longer.
The final nail in the coffin of suckler producers will be when store prices crash. It's inevitable as far as I can see.

I have, they bought a bull for 18,000 in may,Norbreck Genetics never heard of them
....all you had to do was outbid them!I have, they bought a bull for 18,000 in may,
If he hadnt showed up we might have got it!
Well there’s two reasons to give him a fat ear already and I’ve only heard of him ten minutes agoI have, they bought a bull for 18,000 in may,

I didnt read that far, i suppose its the eat less meat but better quality angle hes looking at. Havent we seen it all before with angus, shorthorn and herefords. It would be a brave dairy farmer to bull them with longhornsLonghorns or he’s having your life
They will need 3 months on feed after a summer at grass if they are like most blue x dairyOnly if there hanging them for 8 mths!
Read back , i said i see 20mth blues late summer straight off grass almost fit to kill. They definitely wouldnt need 90 days at the trough and certainly not another 16mths to your 3 yr oldsThey will need 3 months on feed after a summer at grass if they are like most blue x dairy
You must have better blues. Not many are fit to eat without feed. The genetics are against them for eating qualityRead back , i said i see 20mth blues late summer straight off grass almost fit to kill.

I think they will remain steady hopefully go upwards with prime valuesim a store buyer i hope store price dosnt collapse your our seed!
God knows what's going to happen.prime seems to be stalling just nowI think they will remain steady hopefully go upwards with prime values
Yes but it’s a funny time of year for cattle isn’t itGod knows what's going to happen.prime seems to be stalling just now
Yes a drop will draw them out, hopefully that’s the caseThe talk of falling finished deadweight lamb price is surprising as for most of this week the live price has risen by over 12p.
I guess it is on the basis that after Qurbani that demand might drop off. It might but in many areas supply is also tightening as most of the early Creep fed lambs have nearly gone. The grass lambs are not very heavy and it look as if there will be a gap in supply until the better weaned lambs start to come through.
Dunbia dropping beef prices is also strange as live prices for cows and clean remain strong and with a weakening sterling against most currencies it is hard to see where cheaper beef can come from.
I believe many livestock buyers are told by the accountants that this week, historically prices always start to fall so lets just drop the price. The farmers will panic and send more in, just in case the price falls more!!
I might just be an old cynic though.
That's a real good point .Yes but it’s a funny time of year for cattle isn’t it
Only thing those grass rat bull calves are any use for when they’ve grownhope they dont want to much!
If it says they are unsustainable in the paper now is the time to dive in!
