Store Cattle Report 200524
On Monday Penrith & District Farmers’ Mart LLP held their fortnightly Sale of 351 Store
Cattle & Feeding Bulls of all classes.
A strong number of cattle were forward for the month of May and trade held strong even with the recent down turn in prime stock value.
The sale topped at £1895 with a 23-month-old Limousin cross bullock from Messrs M T P & S D Wills, Fawcett Park, selling to Mr D Barker. This same home sold a Limousin cross heifer to £1825 purchased by Mr A Skelton. This consignment of cattle averaged £1815.
Yearling and grazing type cattle sold exceptionally well throughout the sale, and held previous sale values.
Dairy Bred cattle topped at £1585 for a pair of 23-month-old Angus bullocks from Messrs J Wilson & Son, Southfield, with same home selling three Angus heifers to £1395.
Our next sale will be held on Monday 3rd June, entries close noon Tuesday 28th May.
