Holstein cows leaving the parlour in good condition are making more than £1,000 following a 14p/kg lift in deadweight price, driven by a tightening of supply.
But record prices cannot draw out enough cows to service demand, with AHDB confirming last week that slaughter was back 4% on the year.
How cow demand changes as the economy reopens and consumers travel and eat out more remains to be seen.
Tight supplies – typically seen in summer – will underpin cow prices for the short term, said AHDB red meat analyst Duncan Wyatt.
