Looking to market or purchase elite Hereford genetics? The American Hereford Association (AHA) has teamed with The Wendt Group to present BuyHereford.com — which features regular online consignment auctions.
The site gives Hereford breeders the power to reach potential customers worldwide. Designed to help producers with any herd size, this service provides a marketing option for those producers who do not host annual production sales and can be a complementary outlet for those who do host a production sale.
AHA members can consign females, bulls, steers, cow-calf pairs, donor dams, embryos, semen, picks of the herd or flush rights. Commercial female lots and groups of feeder calves can also be listed. Offerings are not just limited to Hereford genetics; consignments can also include equipment such as chutes, trailers, show tack and equipment or feed supplies.
