Livestock Marketing

Yorkshire Farmers is uniquely placed to provide business solutions for its members by the development of supply chain initiatives incorporating professional marketing, genetics and feed packages allied to advice on production systems.

Yorkshire Farmers operate the most sophisticated IT packages available in order to match members pigs to the most appropriate contract specification, and work with several processors at both national and local level to provide members with a wide range of alternatives in the marketplace.

The livestock marketing service aims to get the best return for producer’s pigs by carefully matching carcase quality and the producer’s on-farm systems, with the optimum carcase specification and the costs incurred in supplying that specification.

We have developed a number of long-term supply chain solutions over the years, involving genetics and retail, for the benefit of producer’s businesses in terms of stability and revenue generation.

Crucial elements of the marketing service are providing the level of day to day support available through the whole business designed to keep members informed about the industry and its marketplace; and removing the hassle factor in the logistics of getting producers’ pigs to customers by taking care of processor requirements such as forecasting and delivery schedules.

Weaner Pig Marketing

Yorkshire Farmers is a large-scale buyer of quality weaner pigs throughout the year. We match this supply with the individual requirements of finished pig producers for healthy stock able to satisfy a wide range of contract specifications.
