"Lamb trade was slightly easier on the week, returning back to rates similar to that of a fortnight ago and it's the same story that
weight pays. Ewes followed the national trend and were a touch easier. There were copious amounts of leaner types around
today, freshly weaned off the hills and hardly any fit powerful girls were presented which resulted in us not having many ‘high
end' prices that glitter the report. Trade all in was solid and in line with other major centres."
