Day one of Wright Manleys marathon three-day sale of FARMCAREs 825-head dairy herd at the Down Ampney Estate, Latton, near Cricklade, Glos. The first day saw 275 milking cows and heifers pass under the hammer, levelling at £626.81. The top price of £1020 went to a freshly-calved second calver by Lasso that was giving 41kg. Auctioneer, Oliver Hiles, was pleased with trade and hopes it continues.
