Silsden Moor farmer Simon Bennett with his March prime cattle champion and reserve
Silsden Moor farmer Simon Bennett enjoyed double success at this month’s prime cattle show at Skipton Auction Mart.
His first-prize 555kg Limousin-cross heifer was crowned champion and went on to achieve the day’s leading price of £1,451, when selling to Keelham Farm Shop, Thornton.
And Mr Bennett, of Delph Farm, earned the reserve championship title with his 640kg Charolais-cross steer, which sold for £1,284 to Bradford butcher Paul Binns.
