The expansion of the Bonnydale black Simmental stud into Queensland is proving to be a fruitful one for Western Australia’s Introvigne Grazing Co, with a top price more than double last year’s inaugural showing, at Friday’s sale at Roma.
Local cattleman Casey Wraight, Westmore, paid the top price of $26,000 for Bonnydale Proclamation R116, one of 24 young black Simmental bulls offered by the Queensland side of the operation, run by Jake Berghofer and Emma Patterson at Kingaroy.
