    The bit that caught my eye is the journal says they've negotiated 30c kg bonus for U grade lambs

    Good question! If they have contracts in place for orders, wonder will they discuss price. I see on the FB page they have the weight limits up for the year ahead.

    Most groups would have the weight limits for the year ahead at this stage, so that wouldn't be unusual
