The 2025 Roma Droughtmaster Bull Sale once again reinforced the breed’s strength across both stud and commercial markets. Over two days of selling, 81 bulls changed hands to achieve a gross of $836,500, an average of $10,327, and a clearance rate of 75 percent. The sale reached a new record top price of $50,000, the highest in the event’s 37-year history, demonstrating the continued confidence in Droughtmaster genetics.
Commercial demand remained a key feature, with 80 percent of bulls sold to non-members and strong representation from repeat and firsttime buyers alike. Online engagement was also a highlight, with 24 registered online bidders, 327 viewers, and $136,000 in total sales transacted digitally.
These results confirm the Roma Sale’s position as a cornerstone event for Droughtmaster producers, showcasing the breed’s adaptability and market relevance.
