[QUOTE="farmerm, post: 6773645, member: 7195"] sell them though the live market and the buyers seem to be able to find them an abattoir home, farm assured or not.. :scratchhead: You would struggle to spot a price premium or penalty based on pens bases on their FA status whilst watching them sell at my local markets... Last week the average penalty at Shrewsbury for none FA was just 1.3p/kg! Shrewsbury 11th Feb [ATTACH type="full"]858582[/ATTACH] Its not a 1 off either, I can find plenty of examples of weeks where none FA averaged more than FA, has occurred twice at Shrewsbury in the past 4 weeks alone... Over these last 4 weeks FA lambs at Shrewsbury achieved on average just 1p/kg more than none FA... Penalty for none FA at Bridgnorth this weeks was 7p/kg which I guess is closer to 15p/kg DW however that was an exceptionally high difference... Bridgnorth 11th Feb [ATTACH type="full"]858583[/ATTACH] Look at the last 4 weeks for Bridnorth and the averaged benefit of FA over none FA was only 2p/kg Interestingly over this last 4 weeks Bridgnorth has averaged 10p/kg more than Shrewsbury :scratchhead: Why are we paying for Farm Assurance, the market clearly doesn't value it!! ?
