Borderway Prime Bulls & Cattle

HARRISON & HETHERINGTON LIMITED, CARLISLE
PRIMESTOCK SALE
MONDAY 2^nd NOVEMBER 2026

PRIME BULLS: 

Bulls continue to join us here at Borderway, with new vendors entering the market weekly as word of our trade continues to spread. This week was the first sale where bulls were seen to be slightly easier on the whole. However, the very biggest and best types remained a flying trade, while plain black-and-white bulls also held their values well. Everything in between was generally 5-10p/kg easier, following a run of cheaper meat sold towards mid to end of last week.

Topping the day's sale was a tremendous 994kg Limousin bull from M/s Jenkinson, Clifton Moor, Penrith, realising an impressive £4,154.92. M/s Nimmo, Bogside, Wishaw, sold a tremendous run of bulls and topped the ppkg section at 432p/kg for an 847kg, 19-month-old bull.

A total of twelve bulls sold in excess of £3,000, highlighting the continued demand for well-finished, heavy commercial bulls.

Dairy-bred bulls peaked at £2,301 for a 683kg Holstein Friesian from M/s Bell, Woodhall, Hexham. The same animal also topped the dairy section on a ppkg basis at 337p/kg.
