Grading is diabolical there lately. Conformation and fat scores being used to wallop the base price.. Loving the O- and 5s. Larry might as well have it.

Finisher had 510 to takes his costs out of. He must have got poor enough weight gain off grass for the summer. If he killled 58% he was 750 LW at slaughter. He did 285 kgs since last June. He seemed to have been killed mid February. That is an average of 1.2kgs/day You would imagine that he was houses Mid October at the latest and maybe earlier as September was wet last year. He surely cost 3/day indoors at 120 days that is 360 euro. Grass, a bit of ration outside for August and September 120 day outside at 1 euro/day including ration. 480 in feed costs hard to see a margin out of him I hope you had more than twicw what the finisher had Tanko
