Welcome to this week’s Ennis Mart report with sample prices. Just under 700 entries, including weanlings, calves and sucklers, were presented for sale at Ennis Mart on Tuesday, January 26^th, according to a spokesperson.

They reported that the sale attracted a larger entry than the previous week, with trade “quite strong yet again”.

“Calf numbers increased slightly but mostly continentals on offer and €550 was achieved for a 2-month-old Charolais bull. One Friesian bull on offer and he made €120.”

“A good entry of suckler stock again with in-calf lots hitting €1,910.  Pairs hit €1,980 today. Trade was quite strong in the bulls and heifers again today and bulls were a shade dearer, but quality was better in the bull ring also.”
