Get your vellies ready and come join us! The Vlakte Bonsmara Study Group invites all buyers and interested parties to their 17th bull auction, which will take place on 16 October on the farm Doornpan, Roedtan, Limpopo.
What started as a dream on the Springbokvlakte in Limpopo in 2007 has grown into an excellent team of 20 dedicated farmers who manage over 2 000 producing cows today.
For this group, it is about much more than just breeding cattle, it is about gratitude, honest business and mutual support. They strive every day to offer only the very best genetic material, while also lovingly reaching out to emerging farmers to help them build their own success.
If you farm in the central, northern or western Bushveld, you know how tough the world can be. The Vlakte Bonsmara team has a good understanding of those challenges. That is why they only bring animals to the auction that can truly perform in this environment. Each animal is rigorously vetted by senior appraisers beforehand, so buyers know what they are getting.
The group continuously invests in bulls from well-known top breeders across South Africa.
In addition, buyers should know that these animals are in excellent health and fertile, as the cattle follow a thorough vaccination programme, the heifers calve early, and no cow older than 10 years will be offered.
They also only use registered bulls to prevent inbreeding and keep your herd strong and diverse.
Whether you are a stud breeder or looking for good commercial animals that will quickly boost the value of your herd, here is this year’s offering:
- 65 Bulls
- 350 Stud and commercial females in all stages of production
Stop by and invest in animals that will work for you. If you would like to find out more, please give Hendrik van der Walt (083-628-9301), HP van der Walt (081-011-2049) or the auctioneer, Mike Killassy (082-378-8112), a call. They look forward to welcoming you there!
