Survey shows New Zealand beef cattle numbers up, sheep down

The total number of sheep in New Zealand dropped by 1% in the past year, while beef cattle numbers rose 4.4%, according to a new survey. Beef and Lamb New Zealand (B+LNZ) has released its annual stock number survey for the year ending June 30, 2025. B+LNZ noted a continued shift towards more beef cattle within sheep and beef farming systems as farmers respond to more consistently high cattle prices. The survey found that the decline in the total sheep numbers to 23.36 million is modest and in contrast to the sharp falls of recent years. This was attributed to more trading hoggets (8.36 million) being on hand at June 30, owing to the late season. B+LNZ voiced concern over the 1.9% decrease in breeding ewes to 14.28 million, which it said is "the indicator to watch for the direction of production". The spring 2025 lamb crop, estimated at 19.29 million head, is 120,000 lower (-0.6%) than last season. This decrease is on top of a significant, 1.5 million head, fewer lambs born last season. An uptick in farm-gate prices for sheep over recent months was noted in the report. According to B+LNZ, meat processors struggled this year with low lamb supply which is expected to continue into the coming year. The organisation said the drop in breeding ewes in most regions of the country is "largely because of ongoing land-use change and periodic feed shortages". "While prices are high and farmer confidence has recovered, forestry remains a major concern for farmers as it relates to the critical mass of the sector," the report stated. Beef cattle numbers increased to 3.84 million head over the year, driven by strong farm-gate prices. Farmers were also rebuilding herds following drought in the South Island last year and Cyclone Gabrielle in the North Island in 2023. The number of beef calves born in spring is expected to increase 2.8% to an estimated 71,000 head due to more breeding cows and good conception rates. Despite climatic challenges in some regions, the survey found farmer sentiment has improved, buoyed by better farm-gate prices. B+LNZ chair Kate Acland said there are reasons for optimism in the sheep and beef sector given recent strong prices, although significant challenges remain. 'We're seeing rebuilding of stock numbers in several regions after drought and other adverse weather events led to sharper reductions in the last two years. "Farmers are getting much better prices and are feeling more confident about shorter-term prospects," she said. B+LNZ has claimed that 2.6 million stock units have "been lost to afforestation since 2017", adding that "afforestation is responsible for 78% of the total reduction in sheep and beef stock numbers since 2017". 'The government has set a goal of doubling exports by 2034, and sheep and beef farmers will be essential to achieving this goal. Nearly 20% of New Zealand's export earnings, NZ$10.4 billion in 2024, come from the red meat sector. 'But we can't double exports if we've planted our best farmland in pine trees. We're calling on the government to do more to restrict whole-farm sales for entry into the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS)," Acland said.

Personal loans in Ireland hit record high especially for car payments

PEOPLE taking out personal loans in Ireland hit record highs in the first quarter of 2025. Personal loans were up across all fields, particularly in car financing, according to new figures from the Banking & Payments Federation Ireland (BPFI). The newest BPFI Personal Loans Report reveals that the number of car loans increased by 20% year-on-year to 19,552, while the total value of such loans surged by 25% to €259 million. This is the highest level of car loans since the BPFI began collecting this data in 2020. The average car loan rose by €366 over the year, reaching €13,267. BPFI's Head of Sector Research & Analysis, Anthony O'Brien, attributed the continued growth in car loans to rising demand for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, along with ongoing financing for second-hand cars. In total, over 60,000 personal loans were taken out in the first quarter of the year , valued at nearly €700 million. This represents an annual increase of 22% in volume and 24% in value. The average personal loan increased by €177 compared to the same period last year, now standing at €11,239. The report also shows major growth in green loans, which rose 26% in volume to 1,531 loans. Their total value climbed 29.3% to €35.1 million. The average green loan reached €22,906, which was more than double the average across all personal loan types. Home improvement loans also saw a sharp increase, with 15,372 loans drawn down in the first quarter, an 18% increase from last year. These loans were valued at €198 million, 19% higher than the same period in 2024. The average home improvement loan increased by €116 to €12,886. O'Brien said that these numbers show a big start to the year for consumer borrowing, with Q1 setting new records for personal loan drawdowns both in terms of volume and value. Separately, in Britain, a Supreme Court ruling brought relief to lenders facing possible payouts related to motor finance commissions. The court overturned a previous decision that could have forced banks to compensate borrowers for undisclosed commissions paid to car dealerships. While the judgement reduces the potential financial burden on lenders, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is moving forward with a redress scheme covering deals dating back to 2007. Bank of Ireland, which holds around 2% of the British motor finance market, had already allocated £143 million for possible compensation. Following the ruling, the bank said it would fully review the judgement but made no further comment. See More: BPFI, FCA, Loans

Shein's UK sales surged to £2 billion in 2024

Shein's British business made £2.05 billion in sales in 2024, a 32.3% increase from the previous year, a filing by the online fast-fashion retailer showed today. Shein does not report global results publicly, but the filing sheds light on its growth in Britain, its third-biggest market after the US and Germany, as the company works toward an initial public offering in Hong Kong. Founded in China and headquartered in Singapore, Shein has spent years attempting to list, first in New York and then in London, but faced criticism from US and UK politicians and failed to get approval from China's securities regulator for the offshore IPO at a time of increasing tensions between China and the US. The global retailer's UK business, Shein Distribution UK Ltd, reported a pretax profit of £38.25m in 2024, up 56.6% from £24.4m in 2023. In the filing, Shein highlighted 2024 milestones, such as a pop-up shop in Liverpool, a Christmas bus tour across 12 UK cities and the opening of two new offices in Kings Cross and Manchester. Known for deeply discounted prices, Shein runs constant promotions and offers coupons or rewards that encourage shoppers to keep buying. Shein has taken market share from retailers like ASOS and H&M as surging inflation dented consumers' spending power, driving them to hunt for bargains. Shein has also broadened its offering beyond fashion - the UK site sells £7.99 dresses and £15 jeans, as well as everything from toys and craft supplies to storage units. Shein's business has benefited from customs duty exemptions on low-value e-commerce packages that allow it to send goods directly from factories in China to shoppers' doorsteps largely tariff-free. But that perk is on its way out, driving Shein's costs - and prices - up, particularly in the US, where imports from China are now subject to steep tariffs. US President Donald Trump's administration has scrapped its "de minimis" exemption for parcels under $800, and the European Union plans to remove its equivalent duty waiver on e-commerce parcels worth less than €150. Britain is also reviewing its policy on low-value imports after retailers said it was giving online players like Shein and Temu an unfair advantage.
