Market Prices - Tuesday 6th August 2019
A better entry of finished new season lambs with an overall SQQ of 188p/kg with medium lambs receiving a premium. A fantastic trade throughout with averages much higher than recent weeks with a new buyer in attendance. Although a slow trade was received on lighter lambs.
