I think you are right. To say what has happened in the world stock has held on very well just imagine where we would have been without all this drama

Well it may of done some good really as people seem to be buying more locally produced food which is great....obviously at the start tho it knackered the job
And tought some housewives how to cook, and how proper cuts of meat should taste like.
The wife's friend announced the other week she cooked pork chops for the first time!
She has to speak upstairs now as I keep blurting out "effin hell" when I hear the latest culinary masterpiece!!

The Mrs was on a Zoom call with her friends a few weeks back, they were complaining that their holidays abroad had been cancelled, they had too cook every night and they couldn't go too the pub/club whatever and how terrible it is. (my Mrs is teetotal and she cooks 6 nights in 7). I was sat eating my tea late and apparently the comments I was making were being picked up by the laptop microphone... after that I had too either eat in the kitchen or go checking the cows when she was on a group call...

The usual cry when stores go up , get a life ffs
He's right though, finishers can't give all the profit to the store sellers any more than they can give it to the Abattoirs.

Tell them to get some cows it’s a piece of pee breeding them walk in the park . Your moaning at the wrong end look at the other end .

If I didn't breed my own fat cattle I certainly wouldn't be buying stores to finish.
our farm not suitable for breeding cattle , the same as yours may not be suitable for finishing.
