Darren CartyPANELIST
I suppose there's a couple of elements to striving the resurgence in suckler cow numbers.
Darren CartyPANELIST
Uh, a big factor is the increase in cattle sale values in 2025, and what that has fed into is more first calf heifers into the herd.
Darren CartyPANELIST
But more so, it has been a significant slowdown in the number of suckler cows that's been culled.
Darren CartyPANELIST
So if we look at ICBF data, there was 44,700 less cows culled in 2025, and so far in 2026, there's almost 24,000 fewer cows, uh, culled.

If you give a kid a heifer, they'll probably want to take her to the county fair.
