CENTRAL REDS DROUGHTMASTER SALE
EMERALD SALEYARDS BULL SELLING COMPLEX
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2023
Strathfield 9JE Droughtmasters has catalogued a line-up of 7 exciting young sire prospects for the 2023 Central Reds Droughtmaster Sale.
​
As tradition dictates, the Strathfield 9JE bulls have been selected with stringent criteria in mind and this is reflected in their individual figures. Only the top calves are selected to receive the stud brand and this year's selection for the Central Reds Sale are no exception.
As usual, Strathfield bulls only have a light preparation and spend their youth "toughing it out" in the paddock so that they develop a hardiness and adaptability for drought conditions, thus ensuring that the Strathfield 9JE cattle will go out and work with a minimum of fuss.
