95 pigs were forward at the monthly sale at Dumfries on Monday. Trade continued to reflect the national difficulties of the pig industry and bidding was selective but showed a marked improvement on the month with new customers in attendance.
Baconers sold to £220 for six quality Large Blacks with more commercial types to £130. Cutters made to £80 for an Ironage cross Duroc but others were hard to cash.
The seasonal trade for weaners showed encouraging signs with demand for all classes of these and selling to £65 for a nice pen of Gloucester Old Spots from Robert Montgomery, Stirling and £52 for British Saddleback gilts from Ian Burgess, New Abbey.
