SKIPTON Auction Mart has published its annual newsletter CCM News, which features agricultural-related features and informed comment from sector experts, both in-house and externally, along with a round-up of the 2020 and early 2021 show and sale season. While Covid has obviously had a major impact, trade has successfully been maintained and it’s still business as usual at the mart, albeit a ‘Pivotal time for UK farming,’ as proclaimed in the front page headline of CCM News. However, there is still plenty of optimism, renewed hope and confidence for summer and beyond now that a roadmap out of lockdown and a faster path to freedom are in place.
