Midas Gelbvieh has had a great year in the show ring, achieving champions in all categories at Beef 24 and at the Ekka finishing with the double Champion Cow and Champion Bull at Brisbane.
Owner Chris Braithwaite travelled in a group to Canada in late 2023 to observe the Canadian Gelbvieh experience.
He visited a number of renowned Gelbvieh studs and, along with other members of the group, bought genetics through embryos and semen, which will arrive shortly to Australia.
These genetics will give a boost to the Gelbvieh industry in Australia.
“I have been breeding Gelbvieh in Australia for more than 30 years and the breed is making solid headway into cross-breeding where the cattle bred are being used in all parts of the industry,” Mr Braithwaite said.
“My breeding program is to breed cattle, not only for the stud but, more importantly, for the commercial producer to fit all areas of the market.
“I have females for sale and bulls ready to go from the paddock to work so please contact me on 0429 073 758.”
