Show and Sale Results

Country-wide interest for the Summit Livestock Spring Selection Sale

Summit Livestock held their fifth Spring Selection Online Sale on AuctionsPlus in October 2023. Despite the depressed commercial market conditions and lack of rain across many parts of the eastern seaboard, interest in the sale was still strong.

An elite line of yearling heifers sired by Anchor B Gold Rush and SYES Easy Going sold to a full clearance to breeders across QLD, NSW and Victoria. The heifer draft topped at $5,250 for Lot 5 – Summit Meadowgrass T60, one of the first SYES Easy Going progeny to be sold in Australia, to Carrungi Limousins in Victoria.

There was also strong interest in the genetic packages on offer, with lots selling to every state in Australia. The embryo lots topped at $1,300, for a package out of Summit’s leading donor Meadowgrass H39 and bred to the outstanding new US sire RUNL Justified, to Rodham Livestock, NSW. Semen packages also sold well with the Limousin semen lots topping at $170/straw for ROMN Made to Order, to Morrisvale Limousins in WA. Packages offered on new sires RUNL Justified and Summit First Fleet S41 were also well sought after.

Even with the current tempered market conditions and weak season outlook for many parts of the country, it is refreshing to see there is still plenty of confidence to invest in Limousin genetics, with the lots offered providing buyers with good value.

Vendors Hayden & Jasmine Green would like to sincerely thank everyone who supported this year’s sale and are looking forward to some exciting developments in the pipeline for the 2024 sale event.

PERTH ROYAL SHOW TRADE CATTLE REPORT

Winston the steer was kindly donated by Barry and Cathy Burgess to the Black Dog Ride charity and prepared by Peter and Judy Milton, long time supporters of the Black Dog Ride. Winston came up against a strong team in his class but set a sale record price for a steer at the Perth Show of $16600. Barry, Peter and Judy were ringside for the sale and were excited with the result, grateful for the support from their team and Harvey Beef for purchasing the steer with all proceeds going to a very worthy cause.

The Rob Milner Trophy- for a Group of 3 purebred steers

Limousin continued the dominance of the breed in this competition across Australia with another win. The steers bred by James and Casey Morris and now owned by the Denmark Agricultural College who prepared and presented them came out on top of an impressive line up of quality teams representing all the top breeds. 

On the Hoof in the open competition Limousin cross steers won Champion Lightweight, Reserve Champion Lightweight, Champion Mediumweight, Reserve Champion Mediumweight, Reserve Grand Champion and Reserve Champion Heavyweight. A dominant and consistent  result for the breed across all weight ranges.

From the Corby family, we wish to say a humble thank you to the successful purchases of the 2023 Graduates of Goldstein Park Sale.

With the softening of cattle prices and deteriorating seasonal conditions, we understand the factors which may be influencing buyer behaviours. Despite this, we are proud to see all our sale lots heading into stud herds across the country, indicating confidence in the Goldstein Park breeding program. 

It was encouraging to see Limousin breeders invest strongly in our newest walking stud sire Warrawindi PRIMEMOVER P32 who is admired for his complete phenotype and a data set with 14 traits in the top 10% of the breed. Primemover is now also reinforcing credibility through his progeny with the recent success of Warrawindi To Hot To Handle T2, being sashed Junior Champion Limousin Heifer and Supreme Interbred Junior Champion Heifer, exhibited by Aruma Limousins at the 2023 Melbourne Royal Limousin Feature Show. 

We wish to also congratulate the Said family of Elberta Limousins for securing our feature lot, Goldstein Park Show Time S74 who will be an exciting stud sire addition for their breeding program.

Southern Cross Limousins held their annual sale on the 17th/18th of September on Elite Livestock Auctions and are pleased to report the sale went very well.

With many repeat clients and and new buyers, 11 of 15 bulls sold to a top of $16,000 for Lot 6 to P&B Bricknell King Creek Limousins and averaged $8,272.

Heifers were put up for sale with 5 of 5 selling to a top of $9,000 for Lot 24 to Andrew Stumer Provenance Limousins QLD and an average of $6,400.

5 of 8 semen packages sold to a top of $400 per straw and an average of $330.
