Knowing exactly what type of bull they wanted, plus the determination to buy it, secured Iwona Partnership, based at Mitchell and Hannaford, the top priced bull at the seventh annual Meldon Park Simmental bull sale, held at its new Rolleston venue on Tuesday.
First-time buyers Rowly and Jenny Walker, along with Andrew and Claire Walker, paid $32,500 for Rod and Lis Skene’s Meldon Park Q198, a son of Beef 2015 Simmental grand champion Meldon Park Hugo.
