How much a kg do you think 320 to 350 kgs aax or hex will make next April, will they be making close to €5 a kg?

It takes a serious eye to buy cattle now.

@kk.man thats very true the price cattle are making this year you couldn't really chance buying on line just encase they weren't 100%.

I have bought everything online this year, however I trade off the euros average menu. As well at present with trying to stock the new place and cashflow we bought a few calves earlier in the year. At the end of it as a trader you just take your margin.this autumn is trickier than normal as cattle are climbing in price and costs will as well. Thankfully we have bought nearly enough at present. They are not pretty but they will leave money.

As we offloaded early we did not need to spread about 4-5ton of fertlizer. Cattle will be out 3-4 weeks longer as well.
