WOMBLETON / FADMOOR SHEEP SALES 2018 Dear Vendor/Purchaser, As last years sales were probably best remembered by the torrential rain of the last sale, this year it will be best remembered for the glorious autumn day we had and I am sure you will agree that there is no better place for buying and selling sheep in these conditions. It certainly was a picture. A very respectable entry at all three sales met as we expected a very cautious trade for the breeding sheep. No one can quite tell me the reason for this as the fat trade has been good if not very good for most of the year. We can only assume that everyone quite rightly is acting with extreme caution as we move forward with or without Brexit. However, the store lamb trade was very good at all of the sales, showing there is some confidence going forward from the finishing men. Therefore I hope we can look ahead now for a stable market for our quality produce and look to continue to do what we have done in the past and what we do best. Again I thank all our sponsors, judges and members of the North Yorkshire Moors Quality Sheep Association for their continued support, together with all vendors and purchasers who attended the sales.
