Gardiner Angus Ranch Customers Confirm a Bullish Market
During periods of bullish markets, cow-calf producers are buoyed by the “rising tides.” In the historic markets we are experiencing today, Angus cattle possessing multi-trait, farm-to-fork genetics illustrate the magnitude of quality. On Monday, September 29, 401 producers registered to bid on 509 lots of registered cattle and 512 head of bred commercial females. The sale set a record for fall sales and a new average for bulls ever sold in 46 years of auctions at GAR.

The high selling bull was Lot 158, GAR Grid Maker W1274, a 14-month-old son of GAR Grid Maker L1071.
