The Speckle Park breed has come of age and now has the numbers and the runs on the board to stake a claim in the beef industry. Butchers and processors are beginning to see the true value in Speckle Park and the profits that can be realised.
The Upper Hunter Spring Speckle Park Sale offers buyers commercially focused cattle from proven bloodlines, prepared properly so that they are ready to go into paddocks and work. We have also considered the time of year that suits spring joinings. From Scone there are established transport links to get cattle where they need to go throughout the country. We feel that the Upper Hunter Spring Speckle Park Sale ticks all the boxes for the astute commercial cattle producer looking to go to the next level in premium quality beef production. The vendors of the Upper Hunter Spring Speckle Park Sale are proud of the cattle they offer. They stand behind them and guarantee buyer satisfaction.
The committee welcomes you to the sale and wishes you every success with your purchases.
