WITH QUALITY CATTLE AND 100% CLEARANCE

Auctioneer, David Thomlinson, opened the 2nd Production sale, of the Woodview Herd, of Andrew and Pamela Craig on Saturday 10th June 2006, by drawing the attention of the packed ring, to the concentration and dedication of the breeding of the Woodview Herd, with the focus on providing exactly what the commercial market required, with high meat yield, combined with growth stature and quality loins.

The success of this focused approach was truly evident in the subsequent sale, where there was a 100% clearance of the 60 lots forward.
