Livestock Market Update: Breeding Better Business
The spring yearling bull sales are finished for the season and have brought strong results for all our breeders. Bulls have been presented to a high-quality standard and partially due to a kind winter, this has been a real credit to our breeders producing animals fit for purpose.
Demand for Heifer mating has reflected in good clearances and averages despite there being more bulls offered around the North Island.
Rangatira Angus in Gisborne held the first of their two-part Female dispersal – Results proved to be very strong, 54 2-year-old Heifers averaged $5,207 with a Top price of $17,000 – 69 Yearling Heifers averaged $4,036. This catalogue was also Livestreamed through bidr® which proved to be a great advantage and a third of these animals were sold online.
