What is your view on market activity after eight months of operation? J B: We know a good start in the number of animals presented (averaging 730 animals per contract). For cons, the percentage of animals sold is lower than other gauges because they are mostly traders who supply the market in St. Kitts.
I am satisfied with the development of grass-fed animals, the number has more than tripled compared to the old market. This trend should continue because many buyers are interested.
past few weeks, the quality of animals has decreased during the winter because we are not a region of yearlings, which does not promote export to Italy (the best time for us is in May, June, July and the outputs of grassland).
What is the main difficulty?
JB: It is essentially to resolve disputes between buyers and sellers for animals that have abnormalities.
must also ensure the right mood of the market.
What actions do you see in 2010?
JB: I have to stay in contact with vendors, meet with them and maintain our good relations. We will organize two exhibitions in 2010 (May 7 and August 27) and also sales of breeding farms (in March and September-October)
Currently, I am still working on honing the operational rules or to establish new ones.
