Speaking to Agriland ahead of the sale, Martin Ryan of the Goldstar Charolais Herd explained some of the highlights included in the sale.
Included in the sale is:10 premium pedigree Charolais heifers;Four recipients with calves at foot;One pedigree cow with her calf at foot;Eight Grade 1 embryos from some of the top cows in the herd.
"We really, really focus hard on trying to ensure that the females will make good future cows.
