As Henry Ford said about his Model T you can have any colour you like so long as it s black. So it was at the annual Dannevirke Cattle Fair on February 11 – a sea of black greeted vendors and buyers showing the huge preference buyers have for Aberdeen Angus beef.
Nearly 1000 steers sold at Dannevirke on Thursday half of them 2½-year-olds pronounced on a par with the best in the country by a number of experienced livestock agents including Roger Watts, agent for Carrfields Livestock.
