MARKET REPORT – WEDNESDAY 21st AUGUST 2013
Fortnightly Catalogue Sale of Store Lambs
Forward: 6046 Head, Overall av £54.42 (£60.52 in 2012)
CCM Auctions held their fortnightly sale of store lambs at Skipton Mart on Wednesday where trade was seen to be slightly dearer against the previous sale. With more buyers in attendance from the Southern counties and Wales the longer keep lambs and mule wethers found a much better trade whilst short keep lambs were in line with recent improvements to the prime trade.
