Lucrana Simmentals 11th Annual On Property Sale

This year we have elected for a slightly later Sale date and have brought forward a selection of bulls for your competition that we are proud of. The bulls will present in great working order with the 2020 drop grazing an oats crop since the start of May. I believe there would be something in the draft to suit most buyers.


The Simmental breed continues to go from strength to strength as the breed cements its position as the ‘The European Breed’ of choice, with increased numbers of bulls being offered at auction and new Sales appearing on the calendar.


The hard won increased market share that Simmental is currently enjoying is the result of Simmie stud breeders marketing bulls that sire versatile early maturing progeny in crossbreeding programs that can be finished off grass or grain in to premium markets. I would encourage prospective bull buyers to not lose sight of this and buy from breeders producing this type. At Lucrana I believe we have a track record of selling robust bulls that produce progeny desired by the market for the best part of 4 decades.


This year there is an increased number of Black Simmentals in the draft as this segment of the Lucrana herd continues to expand. I continue to be amazed at the performance of the solid coloured Simmentals. They are born easy, yet possess explosive early growth with great carcase qualities.


As always I welcome any pre-sale enquiries or inspections and look forward to catching up on sale day.

Docility Score

You will notice in this years catalogue all Lots have a Docility Score


WHAT IS THIS?


Each time the bulls have come through the crush since weaning, they have been scored for Docility using the following scale:

  1. Docile
  2. Restless
  3. Nervous
  4. Flighty
  5. Aggressive

The score in the catalogue is an average of these past scores.


WHY HAVE WE DONE THIS?


We are continually striving to provide as much as objective data as possible so our buyers can make better informed decisions. Assessing the temperament of individual Lots on sale day can sometimes be misleading. And we also understand that producers have differing requirements on what is an acceptable level of docility.


NOTE


This score relates directly to the animal. This differs from Breedplan Docility EBV’s that are an estimate of the genetic potential of the animal for that trait by additionally taking into account the performance of relatives as well as the individual’s score.
