DAIRIES TO £1920

A very unpredictable trade in the dairy ring mirroring the national trend and the obvious reaction to the continued poor milk price.

Top call at £1920 went to the Easom family of Oakerthorpe for a 32kg heifer. Next in line was a more Friesian type from the Bennett family of Whiston at £1800.

The Phillip family of Winkhill saw two of their heifers reach £1710 and £1720 respectively.
