Livestock Auctions

All Tuesday sales are dedicated slaughter sales

All Thursday sales are held under the rules of a 6 Day Rule Market.
Cattle aged over 42 days from a farm which is on a 1 or 2 year testing pattern for TB must be tested within 60 days and a copy of the test results sent to the Mart with the cattle.
This includes Over Thirty Months Cattle.
Cattle born after 1st January 1998 must be double tagged.

TB Exempt Cattle

In order to increase numbers of cast cows through the mart on a Thursday we have gained a 'TB Exempt Market' Status from DEFRA.

This will enable us to accept for sale cows from holdings which are in a TB1 and TB2 Testing Parish without the need for producers to TB test them before sale.
Therefore with effect from Thursday 22nd May cows can be sold through the OTM ring without a pre-movement test.

However there are rules which must be adhered to as follows:
1. All TB Exempt cattle need to be booked in with the office by Wednesday at 12 noon.
2. All TB Exempt cattle MUST be unloaded at the DESIGNATED DOCK - namely the Bottom Door of the Calf Ring ONLY - Marked TB Exempt Cattle - Unloading.
3. All TB Exempt Cattle must be kept separate from other cattle in the mart, and will be offered for sale through the ring at the conclusion of the OTM cattle.

We believe that this will allow producers restricted by regulations to benefit from the market system without incurring the extra cost of pre-movement testing.

For further information or to book your cattle in please ring the office or David on 07721 616786.
