New podcast: Stirling bull sales roundup - How have the early pedigree sales faired

FG senior livestock reporter Hannah Park catches up with breed society representatives after the first and second round of February Stirling bull sales.

After what looked to be a strong start to the pedigree trade for this year, our latest Farmers Guardian Over The Farmgate podcast rounds up the mood from breed society representatives after the first and second round of February Stirling bull sales.

United Auctions group director John Roberts also reflects on what this means for the beef sector as the year gets underway.

He also touches on the change in format to the event this year, with the move to selling everything on one day and whether this will continue in years to come.
