Feeder and farmer activity drives cattle prices in Balla
Despite heavy rain in much of the west on Friday night, grass buyers were out and were active for all types of stores cattle and weanlings, while feeders sourced forward cattle at premium prices.
A slightly larger entry at Balla Mart was met with improved demand on Saturday. The heifer and cow trade was strong and steady, while the bullock trade was slightly improved.
The exciting potential of Turkey as a live export destination was laid bare at the first Irish Farmers Journal/IFA Mart Livestock demo in Balla on Tuesday night.
Saturday’s sale at Balla Mart saw another large entry of almost 1,000 cattle on offer. The trade was quite strong, and prices were a touch higher than last week for better-quality cattle.
A guide to special and upcoming sales in the marts in the coming weeks.
