Kington Market, December 31
McCARTNEY'S of Kington report a smaller
seasonal entry of 1153 sheep for their last fat
sheep sale of 2015. We had a tremendous
trade in all weight ranges with a full compli-
ment of buyers.
Lambs: We had a smaller entry of 1002
lambs which sold to an excellent trade with
all weights in excellent demand by the buy-
ers.
All weight ranges of lambs sold to an excel-
lent trade which would be top of the week
The trade was fuelled by less lambs being
marketed over the Christmas period and
demand for lamb in the eariy New Year peri-
od. Some lambs are also struggling for meat
cover due to the wet weather over the past
few weeks and this has lessened the number
of lambs coming to the market for sale.
The lambs averaged an excellent £1.79ppk
and sold up to £1.90ppk.
All the lambs averaged a good £79 per head
up to £90.50 per head for some 57kg lambs
from A and P Morris Ltd.
Lambs between 32.5kg and 39kg averaged
1.75ppk up to 1.80ppk.
Lambs between 39.5Kq and 45.5kg averaged
1.80ppk up to 1.90ppk.
Lambs between 46kg and 521cc averaged
1.73ppk up to 1.85ppk.
Lambs over 52kg averaged 1.62ppk up to
1.65ppk
We are fortunate to have excellent buyer sup-
port from six buyers giving excellent competi-
tion for the lambs.
Cull ewes. tups, wethers. store lambs: There
was a smaller entry of 151 cull and store
sheep. which sold to an improved trade on
the week.
The buyers are requiring meated ewes but
not fat for their orders.
Best Texel ewes were a good trade selling to
£110.50 per head from DT and SM Owens.
Tups are an excellent trade and have strong
demand and sold up to £116 per head from
PM and JA Jones.
We have six excellent buyers in attendance
and good competition between them and
require more sheep to suffice their demand
on a Thursday.
The ewes sold to a top 01211050 and aver-
aged 3 £65 per head which included smaller
and thin hill ewes.
The cull tups sold up to £116 per head and
averaged £78 per head. Small store lambs
