Last Saturday (May 22), Lisduff Angus held its on-farm bull sale with bidding conducted through Ballyjamesduff Mart, facilitated by the MartEye platform.
Based in Virginia, Co. Cavan, Lisduff herd owner Leo McEnroe and his family have been breeding Angus cattle for over 70 years.
The Lisduff herd consists of 150 cows, with all bulls vaccinated for IBR (Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis), fertility tested and TB (tuberculosis) tested ahead of the sale.
The sale in previous years has attracted buyers from all over the Republic and Northern Ireland – with this year following the same trend.
