Generations of hard work is really paying dividends now.

Cambodian 🇰🇭 cattle farming is bit different to NZ. They work with the limits of their environment and love their stock as much as we do.

Sustainability is the defining narrative of modern beef production. For Herefords Australia, sustainability isn’t a new direction; it’s an inherent strength of the breed and a foundation we continue to build on through data, genetics and performance.

Love it when a plan comes together.
After 5 years of sourcing genetics and selecting for Feed Efficiency there's been confirmation that this bull is in the top 2% for Net Feed Intake efficiency and top 10% for the Sustainable Production Index.

Very few Herefords have achieved this.

Add in beautiful type, flawless structure, great temperament and a terrific first group of calves on the ground - there's plenty to be pleased about.

Weaning weights, docility scores, Cow weights and Body Condition scores all done and submitted in to Breedplan.

The 2025 calf crop have set new records for weight gain and weaning efficiency which now averages 48% across the herd.
Most pleasing is considering the performance of the calves with all of their Dams rebreeding on the first cycle.

Pregnancy scanning done & it's a terrific result.
31/32 scanned in calf inside the first 25 days.
80% hold to synchro AI (16/20)

This little herd of battlers get pushed extremely hard through Autumn/Winter and their ability to bounce back and rebreed immediately whilst rearing an outstanding calf is so impressive.

6 weeks until the 2025 calves get weaned & there are some real standouts.

2016 throwbacks seems to be a thing today.
Looks like it was getting fairly dry this week 10 years ago!
The conditions this week (2nd pic) are much better and the Cattle have improved a lot since 10 years ago too.

Be a lot easier and safer if they farmed Herefords instead
