Matauri Angus Elite Female Dispersal Sale May 9th  2025,
and Elite Sire Matauri Boulder T561

The absolute pick of the Matauri Angus cow herd is available for buyers at our on farm cow dispersal sale on May 9th, 2025. There will be 133 cows and 39 R2 heifers all vetted in calf and all transferrable. The catalogue line up arguably possesses the strongest sets of maternal EBV's to come to the market in recent years.

Due to a change in direction for the farming company, it has been decided to refocus on commercial beef production.  Consequently the Matauri Angus herd is being offered up to discerning purchasers.  This will conclude over 80 years of continuous breeding under the stewardship of the Maxwell family and latterly the Parsons and Pymm families. On offer will be genuine tough hard hill country cows, packed with plenty of outstanding maternal traits.

Also on offer an exciting young sire Matauri Boulder T561. He set a record for semen sold from a yearling bull at $215 a straw and we have used him as a yearling and a 2 year old. Check out Lot 201 in the catalogue.

Pre sale-day inspection most welcome on 8th May between 12 and 4pm - please get in touch with James 021 2063208, email james@hardhillgenetics.com or message us on Facebook if you would like more information.
