FOREWORD

We would like to welcome you to our 12th on farm bull sale at Ben-
more. We extend our thanks to everyone who supported us last year.

We were very happy with last years sale. It was rewarding to see a
number of stud bulls sell. In the Herefords to Matariki, Orari Gorge
and Alfriston and in the Angus to Turihaua, Brackenfield and a ½
share of our keeper bull Regulator 302 to Taimate. “Although our
main objective is to sell quality commercial bulls, its good to be
recognised by fellow breeders as heading in a positive direction”.
This year all Angus have been sire verified and 50k SNP tested. All
our Herefords are Sire verified, tested clear of genetic defects, and LD CAPITALIST 316 (IMP USA)
100k SNP tested .
