If they're under the 16 months it was €3.50 base on the grid last week. You get the 12c on top of that which you don't if over. It's a bloody pity to be selling cattle at that, prices were shaping up to be 30c higher were it not for the plague. Haven't heard a price this week.
3.65 available if the numbers are there for U grade bulls, 3.55 for Rs etc from speaking to agent today. Might be another 5c increase next week he reckoned.
It isn't great but it is a hell of a lot better than the 3.40 that was there for Us a few weeks ago. That's 100 euro on a 400 kg carcase.
