He’s probably putting his prices up as we speak

He’s just telling wife not to order to many rings because he has customers everything with a pair of bo**cks

 

[aangus]

Breeders don't look overly flash at Bentham

 

[Al R]

Better put a price up, £6 dead.

Steady on, you’ll get reported for going OT.

Is that RPF?

 

[kfpben]

Just had a look at some of your Charolais tups
They look very good. We use Charolais on mule ewes and they are overtaking the value of Texels off our mule ewes.
We don’t find the tups or the lambs soft like many other folks seem to say

Don’t complement him too much or his prices will go up

 

[copse]

Hoggs well down at melton today would think about £2.60 ish . Big lambs not too bad but low 40 kgs no better than store price.

 

[Ceri]

Do they drink it in the Congo?

As long as he likes lamb I couldn't give a fudge.......!!!

 

[Anymulewilldo]

There was a farm in the farmers guardian that was 30k + acres that had 2000 ewes and 200 cattle. That must be hard place.

We thought that!!

 

[Al R]

We thought that!!

Or not farming for profit? Know of a “body” that has reduced stocking rates to I think 7 cows on 200 acre not that far from me

They look too be farming bleddy good gear on the big acreage though. And they have increased stocking in places on the heather ( which is hilarious as this was foretold years ago when they took loads of sheep off the grouse Moors!) doubtful that the 7 cattle on 200 acre will be tip top stock… especially if it’s one of the bodies I’m thinking of!

Welsh blacks, their putting full fencing 18 metres out from the hedges on every field (small fields anyway) so that wildlife can take over

You can’t write this shite.

The wilderness takes over without encouraging it , the biggest challenge is stopping it !!

But then the hedge just grows out and you have to do it again!

Tree shear few feet off the ground, let the light in
