Dear Fellow Brahman Breeders

 

Our Open Day for 2014 will be held on Sunday 24 August, when you will be able to inspect the animals we will be selling at the 6th Bizzy Invitational Bull and Stud Female Sale to be held at Grafton Saleyards on Saturday 6 September 2014. 

 

Prior to that, on 26 July 2014, we will be offering 7 grey bulls, commencing at Lot 120, at the Casino All Breeds Bull and Female Sale.  We look forward to seeing you there.

 

The 2014 Sydney Royal Easter Show Brahman Feature Show was extremely successful, attracting 130 cattle from 33 exhibitors.  Mogul was very proud to be the Major Sponsor, celebrating our 50 year history of exhibiting at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.  Congratulations to all the prize winners and exhibitors and thank you to everyone for helping to make it such a wonderful event.

 

The Kyabra Trophy was presented to Mogul Brahman Stud at the Gala Dinner by Andrew Olive, immediate past president of ABBA.  This is the 22nd time we have won this trophy.

 

Mogul was delighted to win the All-Breeds Herdsman's Best Maintained Beef Team Award.  Glen Pfeffer, Mogul Brahman Stud Manager, was awarded Life Membership of the Australian Brahman Breeders Association.  Our stud groom, Jesse Joseph, won the NSW State Beef Cattle Judging Competition.

Other highlights for the year!

 

The value of our breeding herd was demonstrated by the progeny of Mogul purebred Brahman commercial females topping the Grafton Milk-Tooth Production Sale in May 2014.  Our top lot, a F1 Charolais Brahman cross, returned $680.00 at 9 months of age.  The sisters to this lot also topped the female section.

 

George Jacobs was honoured to open the 123rd Maclean Show on 7th May 2014. George also officially opened the Mogul Cattle Pavilion and announced the winner of the Showgirl competition, Miss Rachelle Hirst.

 

Mogul Miss Sasha 18th, a daughter of our multi-award winning Mogul Miss DA Sasha, was Calf Champion Female at the 2013 Lismore Brahman Feature Show. She went on to win Junior and Grand Champion Bos Indicus Female at the 2014 Grafton Show on 10th May, and six other championship awards on the 2013/14 show circuit.

 

Mogul Bungie, Junior and Grand Champion Brahman Bull at the 2013 Sydney Royal Easter Show, will be our Vendor’s Choice Offering at the October 2014 Rockhampton Brahman Week Sale.  We will be selling five red bulls at the sale, all sons of Mogul sires.

 

We are pleased with the results being achieved by the progeny of our sires being used in the ABBA Brahman BIN Program.  This has validated our longstanding dedication to performance-based breeding.
