The Country's Jamie Mackay is joined by PGG Wrightson's GM for Livestock, Peter Moore, to chat about livestock around the country in light of the lockdown.
Allocation of processing space to farmers is verging on crisis as it is a massive challenge to get stock prepared for consumption.
Moore said that a four-to-six week delay on cattle was not unusual, with some works operating at fifty per cent capacity, whilst others were closed altogether due to Covid-19.
Dry conditions around the country had not helped the situation and Moore said the industry was gridlocked now more now than ever.
