South Devon Cattle Society of New Zealand

Seven bulls met the rigorous weight, structual soundness and fertility criteria for auction at beef expo. They are an even line of modern South Devon cattle that will suit both stud and commercial cattleman. Average growth during the 279 days on trial has been 1.38 kg per day.

As expected, this is significatly more weight gain per day than another more popular breed has obtained on the same property and under the same management conditions!
