Just over 500 lots passed through the rings at Ennis Mart on Tuesday (September 1st), according to a  spokesperson.

A small entry of calves met a “fine” trade and made to €630 for a Limousin bull at 6 weeks of age. 

“The heifers are currently a great trade and many top lots in bulls and heifers topping €3/Kg.”

“The runners could only be described as a great trade, with heifers making to €830 and runner bulls made to €1,040.”

There was a “mixed” run of suckler stock with a top call of €2,030 achieved for a 7-year-old Limousin cow and a Limousin heifer calf at foot.
