Anyones marteye app acting up lately.

It's a pain in the hole, done everything and it still stalls

Had LSL running on 2 different marts yesterday. Phone and pc and not a glitch over a couple of hours.

My bids were picked up immediately.
PN of Clare marts is some auctioneer, lightning fast and always gives a the underbidder a chance to reconsider.

Strong trade yesterday. Sixmilebridge a bit dearer than Scarriff.

Single farm money usually gives it a rise.

Can’t see any more of a rise coming. Prices are crazy dear at the minute relative to beef price.

When did beef price ever dictate store prices.?

2 farmers with money to spend are bigger enemies to themselves than the factories.

A buddy of my is selling 5 red lmx bulls from 320 to 350kgs....he is being offered €850 at home....I’m telling him it’s not a bad price given everything going on......what do you think? Thanks Mac

tanko · 20-10-2020 11:43AM

I think id be taking that.

Anto_Meath · 20-10-2020 11:48AM

Near enough an average of €2.50 / kg is a good enough price when you put a batch of cattle together. I am also guessing that is fresh weight after a few hours in the mart they would be weighing 20 - 30 kgs less.

Even if his present weights 335kgs are mart weights when you add fees and transport at 20 euro combined he is getting 2.6/kg

If there average to good quality and the weights are accurate then I'd consider it a fair price currently. By the time you add haulage, commission and other mart associated costs you'd want at least another €30 a head and I'd imagine they'd struggle to achieve anymore across the bunch. The marts are packed atm due to the time of year and other uncertainty. If they were mine I'd be strongly considering that offer tbh.

patsy_mccabe · 20-10-2020 02:11PM

Good price, if he gets paid???????

Very true Albert, neighbor is a cattle dealer and he would say he can take €30 less in the yard than he can in the ring, plus he says he needs another €30 to buy them in the first place.
Just drove past the mart in Carnaross there, never seen such a que into it before, guessing this weather would make lads move weanlings.

There's that too of course but no price is a good one unless you collect payment. I've seen a good variety of different customers come and go and for the most part a good man never lasts. The man who can give way over the odds usually runs out of capital and eventually burns all those he deals with. Someone who pays less but cough's up everytime is a safer bet in the long run imo.

+1,and they will be 10-20kgs lighter in the ring after standing in mart for few hours.

There is some big sale in gortatlea to night the weanling heifers did not start yet.

orm0nd · 22-10-2020 06:41AM

Anybody watching the incalf heifers selling in roscrea last night? Some were too well fed for my liking and a good few were very wild.

Few were wild alright. Didn’t think they were too well fed, few on the small side Imo (Below 500kg). Got good money for them

5 to 3 when the heifers finished selling. It’s madness really, they badly need a second ring there. Having stock standing in pens for 12 hours + before selling doesn’t do them any favours.
