What a difference a year makes. Last year was a tough one in farming, but today, the outlook for beef and lamb is very positive. Global demand for high-quality red meat protein continues to grow, presenting strong opportunities over the next few years.
Marbling is the key. If you don’t have marbling, accept the fact that you are producing manufacturing beef. It’s no longer optional—it’s essential for meeting consumer expectations and premium market returns.
This year, the Australian Angus Benchmark Program has again played a pivotal role. Thanks to its insights, Angus Australia has successfully transitioned mature cow body and mature cow height from Research Breeding Values (RBVs) to full Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). This provides producers with more accurate tools to breed efficient, high-performing herds.
For over a decade, we have incorporated HD50K genomic testing from Zoetis into our breeding program. This has substantially improved the accuracy of Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs), particularly for young sires without progeny records, by leveraging dense genomic marker data to enhance predictive power. Additionally, our ongoing involvement in the Australian Angus Sire Benchmarking Program (ASBP) over the past five years has ensured strong linkage to the genomic reference population. This connection improves the reliability and comparability of our genomic EBVs within the broader breed context, supporting more informed selection and accelerated genetic progress.
We fully recognise that our best business model is to help our customers become more profitable and we don’t take it lightly when you come back to us for another season of genetics.

History
Founded in 1957 as Nirvana Stud by the late Graham Bendall with the purchase of heifers from Te Aratipi and over the following 15 years cows were carefully selected by Graham from higher maternal families at dispersal sales. Graham changed the stud prefix to Shalom in 1984 but continued his philosophy of breeding strong maternal female lines. In 1999 Bryan purchased the herd from Graham and has since purchased herds from Otiro and Te Kupe along with females from Inuku Heights, Standen, Shian and Turiroa.
The challenge and knowledge obtained from combining these herds along with our Waigroup herd has proven to be exciting and stimulating and now we are moving into the phase of combining carcase genetics with those strong female lines.
As a matter of interest, Bryans grandfather R O Bill Bendall named his ballot block Nirvana after finding a wool bale stencil in the Seven Hills woolshed in 1949. Nirvana carried the stud prefix for 27 years and Shalom carried the stud prefix for 27 years and now Seven Hills will keep the stud prefix for the next term. Seven Hills Farm was purchased in 2001 and had been Bills first choice of the two ballot blocks back in 1949.
Our Breeding Philosophy
Tough cattle. Tender beef. That’s what everyone wants, yet not everyone currently has this in their farming system. Ultimately, it’s all about profitability.
The maternal Angus beef cow needs to be as efficient as possible. In brief, this means she breeds a live calf in a short gestation, and once that healthy calf is on the ground it drinks abundant milk, grows fast and finishes with a high yield.
The Angus beef cut from the finished carcass must be high in marbling, tender and juicy. This is what the consumer demands and without consumer demand, profitability will decrease. It sounds like basic stuff but if we’re not producing what the end consumer wants to eat, we’ve already lost the battle.
Coming back to our cow; she can’t be too big, as she needs to get around in the hill country and she needs to be able to live off the smell of an oily rag.
So what does it take to get all these ducks in a row?
Genetics + Feed + Management = Quality Beef.
Genetics, this is where Seven Hills comes into the equation. The basics are all here; we’ve got the good constitution, the cattle are sound, they’re fertile, they’re tough and yet docile at the same time. We know this because our selection processes have culled the ones that aren’t, a long time ago. As far as the genetics go, we’re on an upward plane and with access to the most current genetics using AI technology, our cattle are continually improving, as fast as the breeding cycle will allow.
Passion drives us to do the best for the land, our animals and the red meat consumer and we feel it is our responsibility as a seedstock producer to get it right, every time.
We do business with a handshake and we stand behind our cattle, 100%.

CARING FOR YOUR NEW BULL
You have just invested in a Seven Hills Angus Bull. To ensure you get the best return on your investment, we have a few suggestions on how to look after him – and you can be sure, that he’ll look after you.
• Your bull(s) has been running with a large mob of other cattle and will be leaving the security of familiar surroundings to arrive in a strange environment. Make sure he has several steers or cows to join him on arrival if he is on his own.
Keep a regular watch over your bulls when he is out with his mating group. Observe him serving, especially in the first week.
• Seven Hills bulls are used to being handled by stockmen on motorbikes with dogs. The bulls have been trained to respect electric fences. It still pays to handle them quietly with respect and consideration.
If you follow these simple, but important ideas, you will get many years use from your bull.

Graphs of the Seven Hills herd compared with TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation breed average EBVs.
Seven Hills Herd Angus Australia Breed Average
Intramuscular Fat EBV (%)
This is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intramuscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 400 kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.
AngusPro Index ($)
Estimates genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined for a self-replacing commercial Angus herd, targeting the production of grass finished steers for the AngusPure programme. Steers are assumed marketed at 525 kg live weight (280 kg carcase weight and 10 mm fat depth) at 18 months of age with a significant premium paid for marbling.
Mature Body Condition EBV (score)
Mature Cow Body Condition (MBC) EBVs provide estimates of genetic differences between animals in the body condition of mature females.
Mature Cow Body Condition EBVs are calculated from a subjective assessment of an animal body condition, and are expressed in score units.
Higher Mature Body Condition EBVs indicate an animal is expected to produce daughters with more body condition as mature females.
New Mature Cow EBVs for AngusPRO
AngusPRO cattle are registered with Angus Australia, and recently, this has given them a commercial advantage with the addition of two new EBVs to utilise — Mature Cow Body Condition and Mature Cow Height.
Profit drivers for beef producers are commonly linked to growth and carcass traits. However, to continue to make more informed selection decisions for overall herd profitability, consideration of mature cow traits that impact the performance of the cow herd will be essential. Mature Body Condition score (MBC), Mature Cow Height (MCH), and Mature Cow Weight (MCW) should be considered for their impact on the efficiency of the cow herd and tailored to your environmental conditions and market demands.
Current selection practices often rely on traits measured in younger animals, such as live ultrasound and carcass fat depth, to infer mature cow body condition and the ‘doing ability’ of females.
Mature Cow Body Condition (MBC) EBVs provide estimates of genetic differences between animals in the body condition of mature females. Mature Cow Body Condition EBVs are calculated from a subjective assessment of an animal’s body condition and are expressed in score units. Higher Mature Body Condition EBVs indicate an animal is expected to produce daughters with more body condition as mature females
Mature Cow Height (MCH) EBVs provide estimates of genetic differences between animals in the height of mature females Mature Cow Height EBVs are calculated from height measurements taken at the hip and are expressed in cm units. Higher Mature Cow Height EBVs indicate an animal is expected to produce daughters that are taller as mature females.
Using Percentiles for Bull Selection
Angus bulls sold within New Zealand are registered in two different databases — Angus Australia (AngusPRO animals) and Angus New Zealand. The TACE percentiles in sale catalogues are only relevant to the population they are compared against, meaning you can compare one AngusPRO animal against another, but these percentiles can’t be compared across different breed societies i.e. animals registered with Angus NZ.
It is however important to note that the TACE EBVs themselves are comparable. For most EBV traits, the direct EBV is comparable to establish expected progeny performance differences, however, where the animal sits in reference to the rest of that population (its ranking) can be substantially different across the Angus Australia and Angus New Zealand societies.
Let’s look at the breed average for IMF. Angus Australia’s 50th percentile is +2.4, whereas Angus NZ’s 50th percentile is +0.9 (February 2025 TACE analysis). If you’re selecting bulls based on percentiles, please ensure you are aware of the population they’re compared with, or check the actual EBV figures carefully.
“The fundamental breeding basics are already there. We are now focused on bettering the eating experience for the end consumer.”
- Bryan Bendall
* The percentile band represents the distribution of EBVs across the 2023 drop Australian Angus and Angus-influenced seedstock animals analysed in the May 2025 TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation
The decision to ignore marbling in the cow herd is a decision to accept the opportunity cost associated with it. Beef farmers and finishers with at least a degree of focus on targeted carcass merit (marbling) will see significantly larger quality premiums when their finished calves are processed for premium branded markets compared to the average. The exciting piece of this philosophy is that marbling comes at no cost to other production traits.
As for the bulls, we strive now more than ever to bring you an offering of animals that have something to offer everyone in our customer base. We do this without forgetting that the consumer is eventually a customer of ours. When you study the average EBVs, Indexes for this group of bulls, keep in mind one of our goals is to continue to produce cattle of extreme value that are capable of passing valuable traits on to their progeny for our customers. When we offer seedstock in sales, we are asking our customers to trust the data; they do not have to understand how it is “Formulated”, but we owe them a commitment that their purchases will have genetic longevity, work in their environments and predictably replicate the process.

We are committed to producing cattle with predictable genetic ability to be outstanding mothers that give birth to vigorous calves with explosive growth that continue to have value throughout the supply chain. But at the same time, we feel that we are producing some of the finest females in the industry. Some breeders say you cannot produce both, but I believe we can, and are.
AngusPure Special Reserve
Validation of AngusPure Special Reserve by CAB Culinary Centre
Driven by a strong commitment to validating the eating quality of our AngusPure Special Reserve product, Guy Sargent arranged for samples of our MSA-graded, marble score 3 AngusPure Special Reserve steaks to be evaluated at the Certified Angus Beef (CAB) Culinary Centre. The tasting involved key personnel, including John Stika (visible in the background of the attached images), with Angus Cameron and Robert Fraser representing our team. One image also features Guy Sargent alongside the featured steaks. The overall feedback from John Stika and his team of chefs was extremely positive. They described the eating experience as ‘beautiful,’ and notably, found it difficult to detect the typical grass-fed flavour profile-highlighting the product’s superior finish and eating quality. Mission accomplished-an outstanding result in validating the premium quality of AngusPure Special Reserve.
NEVER COMPROMISE
These aren’t just words, it’s what we believe in. We are committed to never compromising in our pursuit of breeding exceptional beef cattle. Our cattle are bred from proven highperformance genetics and we raise them in an environment that tests their worth. We are focused on consumer demands and recognize the ultimate outcome is supplying an incredible natural products that enriches lives. Every dollar into our industry comes from a consumer – we strive to breed what they demand most.

AngusPRO Front Footing NZ Beef Industry
Since shifting their cattle recording from Angus New Zealand to Angus Australia, the group of New Zealand breeders known as AngusPRO, has been making great progress by utilising the benefits of the new relationship.
As progressive breeders with a focus on meat quality, carcass and breeding functional cattle to suit the, at times, very rugged New Zealand environment, AngusPRO has found themselves closely aligned with the progressive and forward-thinking Australian membership.
The continuing research and development progress at Angus Australia gives the New Zealand members great confidence in the proactive approach to ensuring the vision of ‘Angus for Every System’ comes to fruition.
The recent addition of Mature Body Condition and Mature Cow Height EBVs will greatly benefit hill country New Zealand farmers who want to ensure greater efficiency and moderate cow size on high country farming operations, where the landscape is unsuitable for larger framed animals.
The Net Feed Efficiency EBV is another big commercial advantage for AngusPRO, since Angus New Zealand doesn’t provide this as a selection tool. New Zealand has a big focus on environmental impact and animal efficiency, so to be able to utilise this genetic tool in breeding programmes now will future-proof the opportunity to gain potential premiums for efficiency in years to come.
The NZ members are actively participating in Beef + Lamb New Zealand’s Informing New Zealand Beef (INZB) programme, which is in full swing with a strong focus on increasing the uptake of utilising genetics in the beef industry.
AngusPRO continues to be actively involved in the seven-year programme by hosting events such as Better Beef Breeding workshops and through their participation in Progeny Tests and methane reduction and feed efficiency trials.
Last year, B+LNZ ran 13 Better Beef Breeding workshops, several hosted by AngusPRO breeders, along with webinars that covered topics such as Genetic Evaluation 101 and new trait development.
As an affiliated group of Angus Australia, AngusPRO’s newly elected Chairman, Damien Reynolds of Totaranui Stud, says the group are keen to contribute wherever they can to ensure they add value to Angus Australia. To date, the group has been very fortunate to have been assigned Nancy Crawshaw as the extension manager for New Zealand, and she has been making her way around the country, visiting herds one by one.
The NZ members gain valuable insights and enjoy doing business with like-minded cattle breeders when they’re visiting fellow members on Australian soil, and are always welcoming to their fellow Aussie members who may wish to visit them in NZ.
The current state of the industry in New Zealand is strong, with Angus weaners fetching near-record prices across the country in 2025. As well as a strong Angus category, the dairy beef market is also strong, and the new Dairy on Beef research index is warmly welcomed in NZ.
Proving their worth in Australia, three NZ AngusPRO sires were selected for Cohort 15 of the Angus Sire Benchmarking Program — Rissington Titan T330, Stokman Stellar S346 and Seven Hills T53 — and Angus Australia’s partnership with the World Angus Evaluation allows equal benchmarking of New Zealand’s AngusPRO sires with cattle from Australia, America and Canada.
There are some top genetics in New Zealand, and these are now being sold on the world stage.
The AngusPRO breeders contributed over 12,000 active females to the Angus Australia inventory in 2024, making them a valuable contribution to both TACE and the wider Australasian beef industry.
ANGUSPRO MEMBERS BOLSTERING ANGUS AUSTRALIA
It’s great to have three AngusPRO members actively involved in operations at Angus Australia. These roles are bringing a great deal of value and a New Zealand perspective to Angus Australia, building greater insight into differing farming systems and commercial interests. The ‘Angus for Every System’ vision is only reinforced by having a New Zealand presence on the Board.
In August 2024, Ben Todhunter from Cleardale was appointed as an Optional Appointed Director of Angus Australia and he brings a wide range of farming and governance skills and knowledge to the role
“The Board of Directors welcomes the talent and experience of Ben to the Angus Australia Board and looks forward to Ben adding valuable insights,” Sinclair Munro, President of Angus Australia said at the time.
Daniel Absolom from Rissington Cattle Company sits on the Genetic Evaluation Consultative Committee which provides a forum for consultation between users of Angus Australia’s genetic evaluation services and the Angus Australia Board of Directors and management team.
The Angus Sire Benchmarking Program (ASBP) Consultative Committee elected Bryan Bendall from Seven Hills Angus to assist with the purpose of guiding the Angus Australia Board of Directors and management team in developing policies, strategies and plans related to ASBP.
Everyone in the industry knows that profitability within a cattle system can be improved by making educated predictions with factual data. It’s scientifically proven.
AngusPRO are a group of New Zealand Angus studs that encompass over 40% of New Zealand’s registered Angus cattle. These studs have united and made the shift across the ditch, to join the progressive governing body that is Angus Australia.
Angus Australia pride themselves on their quality of leadership in the delivery of innovative programs that will enhance and promote the value of Angus cattle and beef.
