A FEATURE of the Sillwood Poll Shorthorn bull sale this year is the first offering of bulls in Tasmania by Sprys Down Under S77, purchased in conjunction with Heinwaka Shorthorns in New Zealand for $70,000 at the 2023 Sprys Bull Sale.

THE Tasmanian Shorthorns committee is very excited to announce the inaugural Spring Selection Genetics Sale.

The Den Shorthorns is based at Mole Creek with 70 cows calving in September/October every year.

LAST week agents yarded 1,834 head at the first of the Powranna spring store sales.

A RATHER interesting week in the Australian wool market this week saw the market initially stronger particularly as a result of recent currency movements, and then seemingly everyone took a chill pill and the market settled back down to end the week with not a lot of change.

ONCE again, the Australian wool market moved forward on the back of low supply, outweighing concerns about the current lack of demand or maybe more of an optimistic feeling that demand will eventually catch up.

AFTER an early finish at Powranna on Tuesday, I took the opportunity to take a drive back through the Cressy, Bracknell, Bishopsbourne and Longford areas to have a good look at the country side.

THIS  year Londavra Angus is offering a draft of 12 two year old bulls at the Tasmanian Angus Spring Sale.
