    What is the average kill out for br/fr cows youngish 5-6 years old I only averaged 45/46% they who travelled 5 hours

    Plan was to let her out and sell in June. I was going with a couple of cows and sent her with them.

    Fat score 4 looks like she had plenty of flesh cover and because of than and being PB I am suprices at Grade. I presume that she graded O+4 not O=4.

    Don't get rid of the mother in law just when there is a new child for minding in the house . The factory is isn't always the answer!

    Only dairy farmers can afford to contract rear and they do not want to pay enough to leave a margin

    Up to 4.15 for U grade cows in Nenagh this week which was a fantastic price I taught until I went to Ross yesterday and fat but not fully finished U grade cows were making around 2.35/Kg and one made 2.50/Kg :eek: So the lads buying them must be getting even more and all the lads buying them were getting thick if they didnt get them!

    That's 5c better than I got quoted for U grade bulls over 24mths, and only 5c less than u24 mths U grade bulls. I wonder where are they going, France?

    Very same place as heifers probably.

    The cow price always rises first when beef is scare.

    I'm guessing nobody is culling dairy cows anymore unless they are down to 2 spins.
