Sire Selection
We at Hingaia in choosing our sires place a strong emphasis on genetics that have proven themselves in NZ hill country farming environments. We look for a bull with a strong bone structure, is well-muscled and exhibits a strong constitution. We then require his performance data to show a good growth rate with positive fat and marbling scores.The sire will have excellent feet and leg structure and be very docile. We always ask ourselves ‘will this bull’s progeny add value to our clients herds’
