Prime lamb values have recovered lost ground to sit at a Great Britain average of 274p/kg on Monday (8 February).
Tight supplies have driven prices and seen stores and ewe hoggs head to slaughter.
AHDB liveweight numbers for 2021 reached 358,402 last week (6 February) – 9.8% down on the same period in 2020. This is despite SQQs being 35p/kg higher.
The AHDB has predicted a 7% fall in UK lamb production between January and May due to a smaller carryover of lambs resulting from Brexit-cautious slaughtering before Christmas.
Truro
An entry of 188 hoggs hit an SQQ of 250p/kg at Truro last week (3 February). Lambs at 41.8kg and 42kg made 263p/kg.
