MARKET REPORT - WEDNESDAY 11th JUNE 2014

Forward: 432 head of cattle Comprising: 149 Young Feeding Bulls, 257 Bullocks & Heifers, 3 Feeding Cows & 23 Breeding Cattle. A large entry of cattle were forward for sale at Skipton on Wednesday and attracted a full attendance of buyers. Bull trade was brisker than anticipted with several customers making the journey from midlands counties to compete for the entry on offer. In the store section there was a full range of cattle on offer from smart continental bred forward stores which sold away nicely, whilst the grazing cattle and suckler calves found many bidders eager to keep sheds and fields topped up at realistic prices. Several runs of Angus and Hereford cattle were keenly sought, whilst Black & White Bullocks were forward in good numbers and attracted a few fresh faces to the ringside.
