Barana Bolton [Scurred] sold for the second top price of $9,000 at our 2007 sale to Stan White, Kingaroy, Qld

2007 ANNUAL ON FARM Sale Date  - 20th AUGUST

Barana Angelo [Polled] sold for the top price of $18,000 at our 2007 Sale to Noel & Jill Mobbs, Gowrie Pastoral Co, Charleville, Qld.

Barana Simmentals will conduct their 7th Annual On Farm Bull Sale on Monday 20th August at 1pm.  This year, Stud Principal, Peter Cook will offer a draft of 58 bulls, polled & horned and for the first time 10 specially selected heifers in a line up equal to the best in any breed.  The Barana sale will be the largest offering of purebred Simmental bulls by a single vendor in Australia and is the premier Simmental sale in NSW.  We have sold in excess of 600 bulls nationwide with many repeat buyers.

Like other producers in the eastern states we have been feeling the crippling effects of this relentless drought.  Recently we have seen the start of some good rain & we are hopeful that this will continue & that a return to normal seasons is just around the corner.  Throughout the drought our cattle have been fed a mix of straw, molasses, GrapeMarc and grain, sorghum stubble hay & whatever other hay we could source.  At the present time our sale bulls are on a green oats crop with supplementary light ration of grain and hay.

The bulls have been selected for their easy-doing ability, well muscled, sound structure & early to mid maturity pattern.  On the day you will see these bulls at their natural best with no foot trimming being done on any animal presented. 

As in past sales, objective data will be available for each bull & all inspections & guarantees you have come to expect from Barana will be provided.  All bulls must pass stringent tests for breeding & soundness with the appropriate Veterinary Soundness Certificate provided.  These bulls will also be semen tested, Breedplan recorded, scanned for EMA, FAT & IMF & vaccinated for Vibrio.  Barana has Johnes Status MN2.

Free cartage will be offered within a 300 km radius of Barana and for interstate buyers, free cartage along the major route from Coolah to Goondiwindi & from Coolah to Wodonga. The catalogue will be available for preview with photos on our website www.baranasimmentals.com.

Selling Agents are Elders and Davidson & Cameron with 5% rebate offered to outside agents.

2007 Northern Beef Week Open Day

Once again Barana participated in The Land Northern Beef Week 2007 with our Open Day on 22nd June.  Our Open Day saw similar numbers as last year with 35 past & prospective clients from around the state visiting to view our breeding herd & sale bulls.  Feedback was positive from visitors who traveled from as far south as Finley to Texas in the north.  Special thanks to Neale Green from Maitland who arrived early enough help get the cattle in!

From [L] Vaughan & Mariann Nowland, Gunnedah, Michael & Gail Knight, Wee Waa, Andrew Moore Texas, Qld with Peter Cook
