There has been further downward pressure on hogget prices over the last week, with base quotes reduced by 20c/kg to 30c/kg. Entries are sparse in the quotes table, with Ballon Meats topping prices at an all-in price of €9/kg, while the two Irish Country Meats (ICM) plants in Camolin and Navan are quoting a base of €8.60/kg plus their 20c/kg quality assurance (QA) payment.
