Foveran Deer Park's 37th annual elite sire stag sale on January 11 attracted "a good gallery of buyers" stud manager Barry Gard said.
The 2646ha farm near Kurow featured in a Central Rural Life story on December 4 as it was preparing for the sale, providing an insight into the operation.
Of the 49 stags on offer, only four were passed in, Gard said.
Top price of $62,000 and second-best of $41,000 were both paid by South Island breeders.
