Sheep prime stock report
Lawrie and Symington Ltd sold 142 Lambs, 749 Hoggs and 749 Cast Ewes and Hoggs through Lanark.
Lambs
A nice show of 149 spring lambs saw trade sharper in all weight ranges as more companies and butchers switch across from hoggets. Farmers should note that good 36-38kg lambs are still making £110 - £120 and should perhaps be marketed.
The sale topped at £164 per head for Texels from Messrs Laird, Cambwell and to 402p/kg for Texels from Messrs Gibson, Cowgrove.

Sale topped at £200 for Texel from Messrs Campbell, Strawfrank and to £109 for Blackface from Messrs Thornborrow, Carterhope.
