PGG Wrightson Livestock Roundup April 12 2019
Mark Leishman talks to PGW Livestock GM, Peter Moore in the latest Livestock Update. This week’s interview focuses on the strong market for store lambs, the feed conditions for Autumn, Brexit and the upcoming launch for Bidr.
Market Prices
Recent store stock sales around the country are seeing the sheep market maintain it’s value. With big sales happening at Stortford Lodge and Feilding.
Feed Conditions
Feed conditions are less than ideal for this time of the year. The country is green but with the cooler ground temperatures and low soil moisture means pasture growth is slow.
Brexit
With a further delay on the decision around Brexit, exporters are left with uncertainty for the future.
Bidr Launch
The launch of Bidr is approaching fast, with the official launch taking place at the National Fieldays.
