Cattle prices are holding steady

This Belgian Blue dry cow was the only beef cow breed for sale in Bandon Mart on Monday. Born in August 2014 weighing 550kg, she sold for €970. Picture: James Treacy.

It is steady as she goes on the prices for cattle at the factories for this week with the quotes holding at last week's level.

Following the flush of growth on pastures over the past month, cattle have been thriving well in recent weeks and the first of the cattle finished off grass are now moving out in increasing supply each week.
