AG GROW JULY 2010

The Ag Grow Superior Bull Sale was held at the Emerald Field Day
site on Thursday 8 July and Friday 9 July 2010. This sale heralds the
start of the 2010 - 2011 financial year multi-vendor stud and
commercial sales; and is usually a guide to future sale events during
this selling season.

The sale cleared 67% of the catalogue for an overall average of
$3,260. The Gelbvieh draft of 12 stud and Gelbvieh infused bulls sold
above that percentage to clear 75% for an average price of $2,861.

The top selling stud bull was Sunshine Dynamite D122, at $3,250, from
the Chaplin family, while the top selling commercial bull at $5,000, was
the O’Halloran’s Gelbvieh cross Brahman, Terley 819.

Vendors and agents alike were disappointed with the overall sale
results and they indicated that confidence in the industry is lacking at
present.

Gelbvieh stud vendors who supported the 2010 Sale were
Queenslanders Glen and Donna Chaplin ‘Sunshine’ Cooroy, Dieter
Ruzicka ‘Homebush’ Allora, Terry and Shirley O’Halloran ‘Terley’
Clifton; and NSW breeders Michael and Wendy Jackson ‘Double J’
Guyra.

The Gelbvieh display stand was again conducted under the banner of
the Australian Gelbvieh Asn. Inc. Qld Branch, however very cold,
showery, windy conditions on the Thursday restricted activity around
all display sites.

Thanks to all vendors who supported the sale. Members look forward
to meeting again at the Toowoomba Showgrounds on Saturday 21
August 2010, for the 2010 Gelbvieh Sale, where both bulls and
females are lotted.

The Annual Queensland Superior Beef Bull Sale conducted at the AgGrow Field Days in Emerald saw 228 bulls listed for sale with 12 breeds represented.

Once again Gelbvieh was supported by three vendors - Chris and Julie Braithwaite, Midas
Stud Murgon, Michel and Wendy Jackson, Jackson Pastoral Company Guyra; and Terry
and Shirley O’Halloran, Terley Stud Clifton.

Eleven (11) Gelbvieh and Gelbvieh x bulls were submitted for sale. Clearance of 100% was achieved for an average of $3,227, reaching $4,500 twice. The overall sale could be
described as patchy with some breeds being hard to place.
