There will be some celebrations happening in the Matt Moffat camp tonight we'll wager. $130,000 for Lot 148 - Westlake Corina (by Hazelwood Conman), party's on!

Huge congratulations to all connections on a fabulous result. As the auctioneer said, "She is a queen!"

The Society was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of ASHS Member Bruce Wilson, late of Boonah, Qld.

Together with his wife Jeanette, Bruce operated Valliview Stockhorses, and bred more than 60 Australian Stock Horses with the VALLIVIEW prefix.

Bruce was instrumental in the University of Queensland’s Vet School Stud, where he worked closely with world-renowned reproductive experts Kerry Dowsett and Professor Jack Groenendyk.

Today, there are 278 Australian Stock Horses with the VET SCHOOL prefix.

Bruce was an Accredited Judge and strong supporter of shows and campdrafts.

We extend our sincerest sympathies to Bruce’s wife Jeanette, his children, family and many friends.

Today is World Water Day and in case you are seeing a bunch of posts about reducing meat consumption to save water, let me remind you of this:

beef production uses mostly rain water 😮

You're probably shocked because the graphics that tell you that your hamburger takes up 10 bathtubs of water don't specify what KIND of water.

94% of the water “used” to make typical beef and 97% of the water used to make grass-finished beef is naturally occurring rainfall (aka rain that would have fallen whether or not that animal was located on that land)

A life cycle assessment showed it takes only 280 gallons to produce a pound of beef. Some estimates put water usage for the production of grass-finished beef between 50 to 100 gallons per pound.

A pound of rice requires about 410 gallons to produce. Avocados, walnuts, and sugar boast similar water requirements. And the nutrition profile of those foods pale in comparison to beef.

Properly managed cattle can actually increase the water holding capacity of the land. With the help of large ruminants like cattle, whose grazing, hoof activity, and manure all act in concert to improve the soil, our land can actually improve water cycles.

Share this post to spread the truth on water use and beef!
