DAIRY & CALVES - MONDAY 28TH NOVEMBER 2016

Craven Dairy Auction (40 head) The Christmas Dairy Show at Craven Cattle Marts can be deemed as a great success with the Craven Cattle Marts Perpetual Trophy won by none other than regular supporter of CCM Robert Crisp of Calton in Malhamdale. David Hall of Conistone Cold was our judge for the Pre-Sale Show with Mr Crisps 27kg, 15 day calved Homebred Heifer selling to Alf and Andrew Townsend of Southfield for £2150. Reserve Champion, a Shottle Daughter from Brian and Judith Moorhouse of Bell Busk was second in show and sold for £2000 which sold to William Oldfield of Stocks Enterprises, Gisburn.



It was fair to say that the first heifer in the ring set the tone with Peter Baul of Bishop Thornton selling his Newly Calven Homebred Heifer for £1990 for a 17 day calved 30kg heifer. Peter Baul also went onto to collect the Frank Wade Perpetual Trophy for the Champion Incalf heifer which came from his pen of six that he had on sale for the day. It was John Ireland of Thorpe Bassett who took the top price however in the Incalf section at £1250.

 

The newly calven cow class was won by David Lawson of Arthington. The fortnight calved 2nd Calver sold for £1800 to Messrs Robinson of Grewelthorpe. Robert Crisp not far behind with his second calver selling to another strong price of £1720 to Wick Williams of Cheshire.
