"June saw lowest number of cows being killed in GB for 6 years! To total 32,780 (Down 3.14% on 2022 comparison)"

Be interesting to break that down to beef and dairy cows, plus what is overall stock numbers like?

I've got my last 3 for a while booked in. £4/kg+ this spring has given us chance to have a tidy up, and I've paid very little in volume seasonality. See what the autumn brings.

chap that collects our culls, is doing 2 double decker loads a week, normally only 1, and you might not get a 'slot' when you want.

pickstock dropped to £3.70 kg, well down from last week, the two things, together, suggest cows are being culled harder than normal.

but you never really know the whole story, and 2 + 2 might = 5 !!!

Currency has move from 1.13 to 1.17 so has made Irish beef an easier buy.

The gain in fill could be offset by the change in currency or not
