The heifer trade was similar to the bullock trade, although demand for heifers at times was a little bit lower than what was seen in the bullock ring.

The average 550kg heifer made €1,120, with U grades making €1,225. Lighter store heifers from 400kg to 500kg were a good trade and were similar to last week.

Good-quality in-calf cows and heifers sold mainly from €1,300 to €1,500, with top-quality types making over €1,900.
