Store Cattle 010221

On Monday Penrith & District Farmers’ Mart LLP held their fortnightly sale of 150 Store Cattle.

Trade was even better than expected, all classes were dearer once again, with more buyers around the ringside. Many more cattle are required to fulfil buyers’ demand.

The sale topped at £1505 for a twenty-three-month-old Hereford X British Blue bullock from Messrs A & S Robley, Nelson Hill Farm, selling to Mr D Barker. This run of British Blue X & Aberdeen Angus X cattle averaged £1388.

Far Close Farms sold a fantastic run of British Blue X Limousin bullocks to average £1322.50.

Heifers sold to a top of £1415 for a twenty-one-month-old Limousin X British Blue from Messrs MTP & SD Wills, Fawcett Park, selling to Mr D Whaite.

Messrs J Stalker, Ratten Castle sold a run of dairy-bred British Blue heifers to average a staggering £1137.50, topping at £1235.

Messrs Raine, Fog Close sold a run of 14 sixteen-month-old Charolais & Limousin crosses to average £1119.29, topping at £1355, purchased by Mr D Whaite.
