Bullock prices continue to rise
Most notable feature of the trade from the farmer paysheet returns was a drop of 2c/kg in the top price paid for R4L bullocks, which reduced the highest paying factory to an average of less than 108p/lb with the margin reduced to just over 1p/lb above the overall average.
Prices to producers in Munster continued to trail the rest of the country with several southern factories buying R4L bullocks for an average of fractions over 105p/lb which was almost 2p/lb under the national average.
