Buyers are already showing strong interest with one March 2020-born in-calf heifer sired by Rawburn Bannockburn daughter out of a Liss Mars M242 dam and due to calve in March 2023.
Speaking to the Irish Farmers Journal, John Best said: “We are delighted to be able to offer the following 22 females and 11 males for sale. There are a mix of cows and calves, in-calf heifers and maidens as well as 11 pedigree bulls with their figures such as easy calving are all in their favour. We liked the idea of the online sale because you don’t have to move the stock off farm and therefore, you’re not affecting the animals' health status.”
The online-only production sale will fully close on Saturday 7 January.
