CATALOGUES are available for Holstein NI’s annual bull show and sale at Kilrea Mart on Tuesday, March 1.
Auctioneer Mark Stewart has confirmed an entry of 18 bulls for the Genus ABS sponsored event.
Judging gets underway at 11am, and is in the capable hands of Ian Watson from the Derrydorragh herd based at Coleraine. The sale will commence at noon, immediately after the mart’s weekly dairy entry. Online bidding is also available via www.marteye.ie
The bulls on offer range in age from June 2020 to January 2021, and have been consigned by leading herds Beechview, Bellemont, Inch, Mullaugher, Prehen and Relough.
They are sons of top AI sires such Gandhi, Zandenburg Art, Bomaz Skywalker, Grafetti, Pepper, Raffaello, and Sandy Valley Striker.
