The bulls will be backed up by strong BREEDPLAN performance figures, coupled with the phenotype of sound, medium maturity with the extra yield and muscle that Turanville Shorthorns are known for.

The Turanville steers at the Sydney Royal have now won 2 Gold, 3 Silver and 3 Bronze medals.

As the beef industry looks towards meat quality with tenderness and flavour and more processors take up MSA grading, well-muscled, easy doing Shorthorns offer the consistency and quality required to meet market specifications with the added bonus of leaving functional, fertile females in the cow herd.

The demand for Shorthorn genetics continues to grow on the success of the JBS Australia “Thousand Guineas” Premium Shorthorn branded beef programme.

With premium prices paid for 75% or higher Shorthorn blood cattle for this grain fed brand, cattle producers are focusing on easy care cattle that perform in all conditions and Shorthorns have a reputation for these characteristics.

The breeding objectives at Turanville are backed up by numerous carcase successes at the Upper Hunter Beef Bonanza, Sydney Royal and RAS Beef Challenge.

The focus on soft easy finishing cattle with optimum muscling can be seen in the outstanding draft of bulls on offer this year.

Lot 2 is a top sire prospect by the consistent breeding sire H102 who is a son of Sprys Bonecrusher B30. In the sale draft there will also be a number of bulls suitable for heifers amongst the great line-up of red white and roan herd improving sires.

The Bulls are prepared on grazing oats with no grain feeding at all. They are ready to work, fully vaccinated for Pesti,Vibrio and 7 in 1, vet checked, semen tested and backed by guarantee.

The sale is conducted in a relaxed atmosphere under the buyer friendly Helmsman system with a 6% rebate to all agents.
