SIX studs and six different breeds of cattle Murray Grey, Angus, Droughtmaster, South Devon, Limousin and Santa Gertrudis were on show in the Mid North and Yorke Peninsula on day one of Stock Journal's 2019 Beef Week.
Despite the tough season, many stud principals reported good inquiry as they opened their farmgates to show their selected genetics to potential clients.
Some studs achieved sales on the day, while others use it as a chance to preview their offering of bulls, and females, ahead on their on-property sales later this month.
Stock Journals VANESSA BINKS, CLAIRE HARRIS and ELIZABETH ANDERSON were out capturing the action.
