bull sale averages rise year on year No new world records were set, but a strong commercial trade prevailed throughout all the breed sales during Borderway beef month in May, writes pedigree auctioneer David Dickinson. Slightly fewer bulls were sold, however, a rise of just short of £500 was recorded in the overall average with 475 bulls being cashed to average £3,437.07, while females levelled at £1,363.79, a rise of £4 with 111 fewer being sold.

Know the new rules on Waste Government knows farmers dump rubbish on-farm or bury waste, some of which pollutes ground waters and is harmful to human health. It is therefore proposed that the Farm Waste Regulations will apply to farming as have applied to all other sectors for many years. Under the present the waste management controls, agricultural waste is excluded. This exclusion contravenes the Waste Framework Directive and the Landfill Directive. The legislation came into force on the 15th May 2006 and will be policed by the Environment Agency (EA). On the plus side is seen; benefits for farmers to know how and where to get rid of waste and, improved industry image.
