A slightly unusual news story featuring North Ronaldsay sheep, but those interested in the breed may find the following article worth a read...

At the AGM 2019, the subject of approved sales was discussed. At present, there is just one such

sale, Melton Mowbray, where the Society arranges for sheep to be inspected, card graded, and where

upset prices ensure the true worth of the sheep is realised.

The question was, whether to continue to put all effort into this sale, or whether there should be

another, say York. We would have to liaise with the market, as they don’t currently have upset prices

and the ‘feel’ of the sale is very different.

If you have a strong opinion about this, please contact a member of the Committee.
