War of words, but no beef price change
However, there has been no overall change in beef prices at factories for the week. Slaughtering at the AIBP factories at Nenagh and Cahir, Dawn Meats at Waterford, Meadow Meats at Rathdowney, and Kepak at Athleague will not resume until tomorrow.
Supplies of cattle under 30 months have tightened in some areas this week but there has been no change in overall quoted prices at the factories, which are at 232c/kg for R grade and 224c/kg for O grade.
