Foreword
Welcome to our 21st on farm Delmont Angus Bull Sale
This year we are offering 31 Angus Bulls for Auction and via the Bidr
platform.
The bulls have all been tested for B V D and are TB (C10). They have
been vaccinated but will still need to have a booster B V D injection
before mating to maintain their immunity.
This year is the 21st on farm sale of the bulls and we decided that this
milestone needed some form of recognition to remember it. So, we
decided to build a purpose-built selling ring to put the Bulls through. We
have utilised the back pen of our covered yards and have built a small
set of cattle yards on the outside to run the bulls in. We are thrilled with
the outcome and look forward to selling the bulls through the ring. If you
can spare the time, we invite you all to come, and help celebrate our
21st Sale. You are all welcome.
In the past year we have restructured our farming business, and we
welcome our son Jono as a fifty percent owner in the stock and plant at
Delmont. Jono has been at home on the farm for the past 9 years and
is passionate about the future and being involved in the management
and direction he wants to take the farm business in. John & Tracey are
equally excited, because it lets us take a step back knowing we have
the next generation stepping up.
We really appreciated the support we received last year, and we look
forward to being of assistance again this year. Jono is taking a greater
role in the management of the farm and in particular the Stud and I am
confident he will continue to improve the genetics for both Delmont and
our clients.
All of the bulls at the fall of the hammer will be insured, FMG have
partnered exclusively with Angus N Z to offer comprehensive cover of
the bulls up to the value of $25000 under FMG’s Premier Bull cover
for 14 days at this sale, at no cost to you the purchaser, and then after
that time has lapsed you will have the opportunity to continue to insure
your bull with FMG for 6.5% of the purchase price, for 12 months.
Please refer to the FMG Premier Bull cover statement at the back of this
catalogue.
Thank you for your time and we look forward to catching up prior to
sale day.
