    Haven't been to the marts in a while and won't be selling for another while

    At a guess 400kg Friesians will make anything from 700-780 if they are decent quality. 400kg Lims, assuming they are not too fancy, will make 850ish. I would say your location in the country will also have a baring on the price

    Let us know how you get on

    decided to hold off selling for a month but sold now,
    all bullocks lm weight 350kg - 400 average 2.05 euro per kg
    fr 390-400 average 1.58 euro per kg not fancy cattle by any stretch of the imagination.
    God help anyone buying store cattle there getting more expensive as the weeks pass, heres hoping the factory price continues or lads are going to be burned,
