CELEBRATING 60 years of Elders Casterton sales, the Koch family, Rosebank, Dunrobin, will offer 215 Hereford and Hereford/Simmental weaners, March/April-drop.
Current-day Rosebank principals Jason and Stephen Koch said that little has changed since their father, Charlie Koch, sold in those early sales.
Bulls are selected by eye for structural soundness, muscling, eye pigment and calving ease while EBVs are referenced only for 200, 400 and 600-day growth rates and milk figures.
While the Rosebank breeding herd is prominently Yarram Park-blood, this year's calves will be the second drop by Wilkah Hereford bulls adding extra muscle.
