I agree. Hope I’m wrong. Does anyone see true benefits in profit to lower carcass weight limits.i dont think they will be joy. beef will have to go up for many of these stores just to wipe there arses and i cant see it.
weight always pays untill you are 100 grams over then youve fed it 30 days for nothing.I agree. Hope I’m wrong. Does anyone see true benefits in profit to lower carcass weight limits.
In all my years of farming as soon as the beef or lamb trade moved up the prophets of doom come out . They in the most part were wrong there has been the occasional time when the job went wrong but there have always been more winners than losers, as always you have to be in it to win it.i dont think they will be joy. beef will have to go up for many of these stores just to wipe there arses and i cant see it.
Don't know why I 'loved' that, I'm looking to buy some cows soon (might be the McEwan's export).Store cattle trade today at Sedge had to be seen to be believed, just about the dearest store trade ever seen at the centre for many years if not ever!
Heifers/ Angus and Fri cattle trading at exceptional money!
On the ewe breeding sale on Thurs at Sedge, trade was just mental and from what I was told today prices across the board just about broke all records and far exceeded vendors expectations!

Going forward looking at the rest of this year there is less beef in the system in GB and Ireland and consumption is up.sorry i am no prophet , just a realist, look across the irish sea ,there will be tons coming over. usa trade deal . hope i am wrong . but i dont think i am.
That wasn’t the question. The question was store prices didn’t come down in line when carcass weights dropped. Obviously that is fine as the store men need to make money. My argument is that lower carcass weights haven’t lead to higher prices current situation aside.weight always pays untill you are 100 grams over then youve fed it 30 days for nothing.
The main feeding men buying 50+ store cattle week in, week out, seem happy enough, they are there buying them when they are cheap or off the clock.sorry i am no prophet , just a realist, look across the irish sea ,there will be tons coming over. usa trade deal . hope i am wrong . but i dont think i am.

Beef was also stockpiled ready for a brexit date that came and went , this beef has now been used and/or didnt exist. They couldnt stockpile beef now even if they tried, there isnt any spare .The main feeding men buying 50+ store cattle week in, week out, seem happy enough, they are there buying them when they are cheap or off the clock.
Irish/polish/american imports are just a broken record scare story nowadays. Covid 19 showed up the lies within the beef industry and proved supply and demand was tighter than we had all been led to believe. There isnt a glut of irish beef and people do not want to eat polish or american beef.
Have any more?back a touch. especially at start. Prices rose a touch towards the last third.
Have any more?
The Money staying here too will do things world of good instead of it all disappearing abroad when folk blow it on holiday.With less people going abroad this year, meat consumption will be well up

So why’s mainstream beef not £4kg? It’s a perfect storm for beef prices to be higher than ever, yet it’s static and nothing to shout about. You do make a good point NE. There would normally be around 2 million British holidaying abroad at anytime during August, they are home and needing to be fed.With less people going abroad this year, meat consumption will be well up
have you not seen this ?: the cartels (larry and the supermarkets ) have colluded to keep our prices on the floor ,we are currently the cheapest in western europeSo why’s mainstream beef not £4kg?
