Woodourn Angus G heifers All Woodbourn  ‘G’ bulls and heifers were scanned last week by Roger Evans, who comes down from NSW to Tasmania every year to scan the animals, to measure and record true carcase data.

It is a pleasure to see how the Woodbourn raw data figures have improved over the years and it will be good to see the EBV’s at the end of the month.

A large crowd bid solidly for the 38 bulls offered at Woodbourn on Tuesday 17th April, at Cressy Tasmania.  The total clearance, top of $11,500 and average of $5,986 was a very pleasing result for Woodbourn and the vendor Charles Wallace said it was very satisfactory for both the seller and the buyer to have the prices where they were. The sale moved strongly through the lots without losing momentum at any stage.
