NEWCASTLE EMLYN STORE MART, JULY 10, DAI LEWIS CYF AUCTIONEERS

A SEASONAL entry forward in all sections. Barrens met another fast trade throughout, with a good selection of beef types presented. Peaking at 175p/kg and levelling at 112.54p/kg. Weaned calves and store cattle saw a lot of younger cattle presented. Resulted in a slightly easier trade, taking into account the prolonged dry spell and general shortage of grass all over the country.
