Irish Lamb prices fall below 5 euros per kilogram, but trade remains stable
For the week ending July 29th, the exporting meat plants had throughputs of nearly 59,000 head "which was up 12% or 6,000 head on the corresponding week in 2016." From the start of 2017 cumulative figures have reached 1.57 million head, an increase of 10% or 143,000 head compared to the same similar period of 2016, according to Bord Bia.
Furthermore, the Irish Food Board noticed that in Britain the trade has eased somewhat caused by reduced throughputs and demand, the export trade being backed by the exchange rate fluctuations. "The SQQ live price for lamb in England and Wales was making the equivalent of around €4.88/kg dw during the week."
