The South of Ireland Branch of the Suffolk Sheep Society held its annual Premier Show and Sale in Roscrea last Saturday (August 4).<\/p>\n
Suffolk breeders and commercial farmers from across the country flocked to the annual showpiece, which saw more than 170 sheep pass through the ring.<\/p>\n
Buyers from France purchased four ram lambs and a number of very impressed Northern Ireland buyers were very happy to travel to Roscrea to invest in their choice of breeding ram lambs for the coming season.<\/p>\n
Topping the sale on the day was Seamus Browne’s son of Lakeview Heart of Gold. Reserve champion male on the day, the ram lamb was purchased by Patrick Donnelly for \u20ac4,200.<\/p>\n
