Costello Rural Agency, Corryong will offer 1000 head (pre-weighed) in its annual Upper Murray store cattle sale on Friday, December 9th at 1.00pm
The sale will feature 400 weaned Angus steers, aged 8-15 months, 150 Hereford calves, with more than 80 years of breeding backing the quality, and 250 Murray Grey mixed sex yearlings along with a selection of cows and calves.
Costello Rural’s Justin Costello (0419 007925) says a feature of this Corryong sale is that a large percentage of the yarding has been inducted into the Coopers’ Pre-Vacc Gold Programme, which optimises cattle for premium on-farm and in-feedlot performance by protecting against the respiratory disease, BRD.
Vaccinations incorporated on the Pre-Vacc Gold Programme include Clostridial 5 in 1, Piliguard and Bovilis MH+IBR.
Mr Costello says this annual event always provides great community benefits because without a local sale the opportunity to view stock and compare programs, local producers and businesses must travel 140km to their nearest sale yard.
