Sheep prime stock report
Lawrie and Symington Ltd sold 2360 Hoggs and 1599 Cast Ewes and Rams through Lanark.
Hoggs
A smaller show of 2360 hoggs were forward owing to a culmination of a poor trade end of week and inclement weather. Fewer numbers resulted in trade being sharper than expected and similar to last week.
The sale topped at £143 per head for Texels from Messrs Struthers, Collielaw and to 274p/kg for Texel from the same home.
