Sedge today : 17.3.18
Well in sub artic temps and with heavy snow falling that didn't stop every ringside being packed with buyers.
Store cattle : Over 900 strong stores entered sold to a slightly easier trade according to some buyers but what was clear was that trade for Fri steers was off the clock and as strong if not stronger than previous weeks and again £ per kilo were dearer than Cont x steers.
Stirks : Again a massive entry of some 500 head with some super runs of cattle topped out at £1100 head for a 10 month old single suckled steer, another price of note were some strong R grade 10 month old Char steers selling very well at around £1025 head, in the main thou trade for small stirks would be back £50 head on the last few weeks and stronger cattle would have been back between £70/ £100 head on the last few weeks.
Store lambs : another strong entry topping out at £130 head for some superb char x ram lambs, another price of note was the first entry of suck lambs for this season around the 15 kilo mark making a very credible £41.50 head.
No idea what trade was but a massive entry of cull ewes penned.
