Cull cow prices

[Jimbojrf]

I know someone who sends all his heavy cows to pickstocks and he swears by them. But I know everyone's different. But people tell me that p/s seem to be one of the better and bigger outfits around!

 

[Jimbojrf]

I've heard p/s are up 3p next week! Anyone heard what anyone else is paying?

Going to stop sending cows to market just getting slatted - absolutely rubbish prices for good AA cull cows. Got a lovely and gentle AA to go and want to get better price that our local mart. As Im in SE Wales Foyles is an option. Dunbia is much further away.

What about merthyr?

Whats P grade? Shes in very good condition. I would assume 600kg?

Is she named sire Angus? I'm sure there is a scheme for named sire cows like there is for clean cattle. Would be worth a few ppk more that way.

1.70 for 190kg P+1 at foyles last week,
I think P-1 would be 12 pence less.
