Just talking to a chap in NZ and their lamb price has taken a tumble due to the issues in China. This ma mean more will be heading this way in the coming months as it will be more competitive on price. Hope it didn’t but may give those that have been paying silly money for stores the jitters.

Well it aint here yet and also there aint many lambs out there like usual so keep cashing them. Welsh tup lambs horns and balls all over 110 this week some tickling 120 mark.

Longtown also looked silly money today and didn't look like many in.

read/hear all these high prices, for lambs and ewes, it wasn't very long ago that sheep trade was going to be totally f##ked when we leave the EU, but my query is, who can afford to eat lamb/mutton, there is not that much high value meat on a carcass, take off back legs, best chops, not much left. If household debt, is as high, as statistics say, a joint of lamb, is a very expensive meal ! But good luck to you sheep boys, a very useful addition to your pockets !
The prime beef trade, is down, but cull cows are holding, housewife wanting cheaper mince, rather than joints, doesn't quite seem to add up.

That’s because a large proportion is still heading to Europe and there is a world wide shortage of lamb and mutton at the moment. Who knows what trade will be like next year but I think sheep meat will fair better than beef
