Mart Price Tracker

Seeing as there is a Beef Price Tracker thread would there be any interest in a similar thread for prices in the ring.Lads buying or selling might be able to give prices they got or gave for stock.

HoHee thanks for that. The CH are good 100% CH. The LM are also good, all from sucklers. They are organic and not sure they'd make any extra at an organic sale. It would be a 90 mile trip to Kilmallock in late March. If I got €1200+ I'd be satisfied. I could push them a bit with ration over the next two months but it would be organic and would it pay back?

Some amount of cattle gone through there this week. Over 10 hours selling today. Bulls and cows there yesterday and a 6 or 7 hour weanling sale there Wednesday night. There’s a lot of marts up and down the country could do with looking in there to see how it’s done!!

Friend dropped off a load today, he was 2 and a half hours getting in & out.

I know that mart well and I agree with you completely.

Some lads just love to have something to complain about. If they want to view the stock all they’ve to do is drive down there, book a time and go in and view them. It’s no big mystery really.

The point I was making is whether you are there or not the auctioneer can’t give them to you any cheaper.

Some good cows last night in gortatlea were making the equivalent of €5.

Agree with you last night some super Charolais cows and finished up at one o clock, who is the auctioneer with the north accent. They fairly push numbers through per hour compared to the guys up west taking all night to sell lots. Carnew had serious trade for cows to night and no real value to be picked up. Some very top end blue cows made big money.

There's no buddie BS goes on down there..its a few old lads with Nokia brick phones that can't bid online.

It's a very practical thing the mart is doing to accommodate them.

The advantage of being there would be you clearly get a good look in the flesh of anything you might consider buying.

Maybe I'm wrong,but I'd say there's the odd lad inside the premises aside from staff in a few places.

Isn’t there viewing times where anyone can go in and view the stock so long as you book ahead?

Even if there was “buddies” there what difference would it make? If there’s stock you want to buy you can bid on them online and it’s there for everyone to see. The auctioneer can’t knock them down to anyone that’d be there if the bids are coming in online so it would be of no advantage to be there.

Sure what’s to stop them. See what they did to the sheep last week..

Cattle must be scarce. Agents calling to yards last week looking for cattle. I haven't seen that for a while.

OH was saying that the factories are trying to pull prices for next week.

€4 base was within touching distance. It'd be a watershed as €3 was the target less than 18 months ago.

What would LMX heifers coming 2 year old weighing approx. 460-490 make in the mart these days.
Have a few here and silage stocks depleting rapidly so thinking of selling some rather than buying silage/hay

I would have said around the €1100 mark, mind i have'nt been to a mart in 5 or 6 weeks.

older by the day

Some change in a week. Dry cows were good last Friday in skibbereen. Back 150 Euro a head today. Any one know why. There must be an outside buyer last week?
