TE MANIA AFRICA A217 (AI)
#2 Ranked sire on Australian Group Breedplan for the Long Fed/CAAB Index
Trait Leader Nine Times
Te Mania Africa A217 has been extensively progeny tested through Team Te Mania and throughout the commercial and seedstock industry. His sons show lots of natural thickness with plenty of butt shape, style and structural soundness. He is an ideal seedstock and commercial heifer bull with calving ease and explosive growth.
His dam, Te Mania Jedda Y32 continues to excel. Africa is a trait leader nine times and has progeny recorded on Angus Group Breedplan in over 60 herds throughout Australia.
As a mark of his standing, one of his sons sold to $30,000 in our 2011 Autumn Bull Sale. His sons have dominated bull sales throughout Australia and New Zealand.
