ANGUSSpring Update 2023
Welcome to Agri-Gene’s 2023 Angus Spring Update which contains our Spring Semen Specials for some of our more popular Angus sires and acts as a supplementary to our main Autumn Angus Sire Directory.
NEW RELEASE SIRES FOR SPRING 2023
STOKMAN SOLUTION S329 is the new Kiwi sire that was purchased by Mandayen Angus last spring. We released a handful of exclusive packages last Spring and can now offer him on the open market for the first time in Spring 2023.
A Sitz Resilient son, he optimizes all the traits that we have come to expect from a strong New Zealand maternal line. He offers calving ease with softness and shape, ample growth with a low mature cow weight and excellent feet & leg structure. He is also no slouch for carcase data, with doubledigit EMA, positive fats, IMF over +3 and top 1% for ABI $Index.
There will be a limited amount of STOKMAN SOLUTION semen available for Spring so be sure to get an order in if you intend on using this bull this year.
PEAKES BOWEN EVEREST S557 has been one of the most highly anticipated new release sires in recent years and has received unprecedented demand since his launch at the Angus Australia Spring Bull night.
A true phenotype sire, he offers thickness and capacity with awesome feet from an outcross genetic pedigree that rarely puts together an EBV data set as desirable as this.
Calving ease with growth, +5 scrotal, +10 EMA, fat improver with over +4 IMF and top 3% for claw set.

SITZ GALACTIC is a new release USA Stella son to Australia, he was the Lot 1 featured bull at Sitz Angus 2020 bull sale who has gone on to prove himself as a safe calving ease sire who will add growth and plenty of eye appeal. He is an impressive individual with huge capacity and spring of rib with plenty of softness and muscling. He will be a definite foot improver with Australian EBV’s putting him in the top 1% for Claw set and top 6% for foot angle.
LANDFALL SUMMIT S1944 is a new release L519 son for spring who is backed by an excellent donor cow from a strong cow family in the Landfall program. Summit displays outstanding style and shape phenotypically with the carcase merit and foot structure that we have come to expect from the L519’s.
His EBV’s are hard to fault with an excellent blend of calving ease & short gestation with growth, positive fats and over 4 for IMF with foot structure & $Indexes at the pointy end of the breed.
QUARTERBACK – The “SIRE OF SIRES”
At only 4 years of age, he has already surpassed milestones that other bulls never/take their whole career to achieve. Quarterback has notched up multiple sons in AI and countless sons either sold into stud duties or retained to be used in stud.
Recent sons have sold at Booroomooka for a top of $52,000 and 25 sons averaged $15,120 ($2229 above the sale average).
With over 2500 registered progeny already it’s easy to see Quarterback brings style, and length with a super soft skin. The first daughters have real maternal characteristics, an extremely rare attribute for a sire with so much carcass performance.
