We use sires with balanced EBV’s, plus strict selection of females, a tight
calving period, and calving heifers at 2yrs.
Over the years a depth of pedigree has built up in Kairuru genetics, increasing
the proportion of quality progeny you can expect from Kairuru bulls.
Kairuru sires are used all over New Zealand with some clients supporting
the sale over many years.
We invite you to attend the sale on the 9th of June and enjoy our hospitality.
