Bulls are ready for work

Truro Whiteface will host its spring sale on 26 August at “Truro“, Bellata in northern NSW with 32 bulls and 18 stud heifers offered.

Stud principals Scott and Pip Hann operate Truro Whiteface and breed modern, commercially-focussed and progressive Hereford cattle.

Both horned and polled genetics are availabe for purebred or crossbred operations.

“Fertility, feed efficiency and more calves on the ground are a major driver of our operation,“ Mr Hann said.

“Obviously entwined in that is carcase growth and longevity.“

* The engine room – the cornerstone of any beef production system is the cow herd and fertility is the number one profit driver of a successful operation. Calving ease and live calves and, lots of them. Truro genetics will help you.

* Carcase and growth – More carcase, more growth, more yield with IMF. Processors and feedlotters love cattle that will yield with high MSA data. This puts more dollars in their pocket and yours. Truro cattle offer affordable, top-end genetics that will enhance your opportunities.

* Feed efficient – Hereford cattle are very feed efficient both on grass and on grain. Truro bulls with NFI data are all in the top five per cent of the breed and above. This means they eat less feed to put on more weight. Isn’t this what we are all about? Truro is genetically driving this trait in to their herd.

* Meeting bull buyers’ requirements – Truro bulls are vaccinated with three germ blood tick vaccine, thus opening up the tick belt of cattle country and the ability to buy Truro bulls with confidence.

The bulls are vaccinated for vibriosis, pestivirus, have had seven-in-one, semen- and morphology-tested and are ready for your cows. They are also sire-verified, DNA-tested and clear of all recessive genes.

The Hanns welcome visitors throughout the year and invite you to visit, phone for inquiries or follow on Auctions Plus.

Catalogues are available to be posted or can be collected from local Elders agents.

The website www.truroherefords.com is also kept current, including the spring sale catalogue.

* Truro Whiteface will host its spring sale – both live on-property and on Auctions Plus – on 26 August at “Truro“, Bellata in northern NSW.
