Angus NZ National Sale 2009 Report

29 Angus bulls were offered at the 2009 New Zealand Angus Association’s (NZAA) National Sale held again this year at the Manfeild Park Stadium in Feilding on Monday 11th May, with all but one of the bulls on offer being sold to buyers throughout New Zealand and Australia.

This is a 2 year old bull sale for members of the NZAA of Angus genetics from throughout New Zealand and the sale gave a clear indication of the mood of the beef breeding fraternity with prices back on last year a little with the average at $6648.00.

Kept in context with the other breed sales it was a good outcome with an excellent clearance through for the vendors. The Angus breed produced the top priced bull at the Beef Expo with new breeders Franco and Graciana Luporini from Glenroy in Canterbury selling their 2 year bull Farfield MT Modest 773 AB (ET) for $27,000.

Farfield TM Modest 733 AB ET

Sired by Te Mania Modest M126 (IMP AUS), Modest 773 was purchased by a partnership of; the Vermont Angus Stud in Australia, Bruce Alexander of Goldwyn Angus at Hunter and John Cochrane of Delmont Angus at Clinton.

The Luporini family had a great day with their 3 entries, averaging $13,666, a wonderful introduction to selling bulls at a National event.

Although back a little on last year the sale for Angus indicated their continued demand and strength in the market place with a very strong clearance and the top average amongst all the breeds present.

This follows the strong showing of the Angus breed in the Autumn weaner fairs and the continued demand for Angus breeding and finishing animals at all age group sales through out the country.

Once again we were supported by our very loyal sponsors; The Borthwick Estate, FMG Ltd, The Kaharau Angus Stud, Merial Ancare NZ Ltd, PGG Wrightson Ltd, Rabobank, Summit Quinphos Ltd. And wish to thank them again for their tremendous support of the NZAA over many years.
