President’s Introduction
I’d like to take this opportunity to welcome members,
members and
potential members, to our 24th Annual NZ Red Poll Cattle
Breeders’ Association Sale.
For this sale we have a particularly strong line up of young bulls as well as a
proven herd sire. The bulls have an exciting range of overseas bloodlines with
something to suit every breeder to be found among them. As well there is a
select range of future breeding females on offer.
For the serious breeders among you there is the offer of the pick from two,
two of
the newly imported bloodline of a top British sire, Bowlands Zeus. Zeus’s
Zeus’ EBV
equivalent in Britain for 200 and 400 day Growth, Muscle Depth and Beef
Value are all in the top 2% of the breed. For those wishing to increase the
beef values in their herd this is a prime opportunity.
If you are a first time purchaser you will automatically
omatically receive a
complimentary Associate Membership for one year which entitles you to
three issues of our Association newsletter and a copy of the Sale catalogue
for next year.
I would like to thank those breeders who have entered animals – without you
there would not be a sale.
Graeme Evans
President

ORIGINS OF THE BREED
Red Poll cattle were developed over a period of time from the merging of
two English breeds; the polled Suffolk Dun, famed for their yield of milk and
the quality of the butter produced from it; and the horned Norfolk Red,
described as “a thriving, hardy breed, fattening as freely and finishing as
highly at three years as other cattle did at four or five”.
The type was well established in the early 1800’s with stock shown at the
Norfolk Agricultural Society in 1808. The official merging of the breeds
happened in 1846.
Red Poll cattle were first imported to New Zealand in 1898 by Sir Heaton
Rhodes of Tai Tapu, Canterbury; followed in 1904 by Armstrong Bros, Akitio
Station and in 1907 by MH Strachan, Kowai Station, Gisborne.
As a dual purpose breed they were very popular on early farms for providing
income from their calf and milk sales, thus enabling further farm
development to take place.
Latterly, the trend has been away from milking to beef production, although
a good calf still requires a good milk supply. They are renowned for being
efficient converters of lower quality feed to milk and meat.

transport cost only.
3/.
