102 PIGS – AUCTIONEER JAMES MORRISH A nice entry of pigs saw a steady trade with limited interest throughout the sale. Trade nationally seems to be very depressed mainly because of the huge numbers of tons of cheap imported pork being sold within the UK. Today’s sale was topped by a heavyweight sow owned by M/S Petherick of Boscastle and purchased by Rodney Phillips of Bristol. Other leading prices came from Richard Haste of Newton St Petrock who sold a boar at £85 purchased by Levi Moseley of Dorset. Jason Lang & Family of Parkham topped their dispersal at £75. The best of the younger pigs were sold by Stacey James of Thornbury at £70 with others from M/S Pengelly of Callington at £65. The best of the very young store pigs came in from Richard Haste & Family who saw the best of their Pietrain stores sell to £50 for a pen of 8.
