(Eduardo Castex) - Buyers from several provinces offered and bid in the sixth annual auction of broodstock and wombs from the El Yerua cabin of the Buffa-Knudtsen families, which took place in face-to-face format last Friday at the El Encuentro establishment, located at kilometer 77 of provincial route 102, in the rural area of ​​Conhello.The highest price was for a pure pedigree Angus bull, which the herdsman Carlos Gaccio acquired for 3.3 million pesos, after "a bullfight" with an artificial insemination center in the province of Buenos Aires."We are more satisfied with the acceptance of what one does, than with the symbolic fact of the economic results," said engineer Hernán Buffa in dialogue with this newspaper.The auction took place on Friday, with a significant number of attendees from various Pampas towns, but also buyers from the province of Buenos Aires, Córdoba and even some cattle will go to rural farms in the province of Entre Ríos."After several years we managed to give our auction an identity, because year after year there are customers who repeat (purchases), because they are satisfied with their investments and that is what motivates us the most to continue down this path," said Buffa.Cabañero Hernán Buffa admitted that the families who own Cabaña El Yerua were "very satisfied and satisfied" because the annual auction "again comfortably exceeded expectations.""It was an auction with a lot of interest," he continued explaining, "because before the auction, 93 percent of the property that went on sale was bid, and this exceeds what usually happens in auctions with pre-offers. That also marks a little the temperature and then during the auction there was a lot of bidding and interest with many offers," he added.The maximum price was not for the bull that opened the auction, but the bull that went on sale with painting number 3. There was a bid between the rancher from Conhellen and director of Banco de La Pampa, Carlos Gaccio, and the presenters of the Cemex insemination center, and the hammer was lowered by $3.3 million."This insemination center bought our genetics two years ago and I understand that it is now agreed that people who want to access this genetics can do so at this genetic center," Buffa said.The interviewee admitted that the auction "by virtual-face-to-face modalities is slower than a traditional physical auction, but it ended almost two and a half hours earlier than the previous year."The prices reached in this auction were very important.The pure pedigree bulls made an average of 1.67 million pesos, with a maximum of $3.3 million and a minimum of $650 thousand;pure control bulls averaged over $765k ($1.15m - $450k);pure pedigree heifers averaged over $518 thousand ($830 thousand - $380 thousand);controlled purebred cows calving averaged more than $500k ($550k - $470k);pregnant and calving 2-year-old heifers averaged more than $360K ($410K-$330K) and controlled purebred CUT cows averaged more than $323K ($340K-$310K).A BLP card, the most advantageous.Buffa, in another paragraph, highlighted that the Banco de La Pampa with the Caldén Agraria card "made a promotion that was the most advantageous" for the buyers."There is a very large sector of the clientele that uses the agrarian cards, because the banks make an effort, and we say that they make an effort because we know in the times that we live and the rates change daily, and many times it is almost impossible to announce commercial conditions too far in advance," he explained.Other buyers are inclined to pay in cash to access discounts.And also the buyers access an extra benefit that the cabins grant."The sale is made with free freight and without restrictions on kilometers and number of animals, and that helps because the impact of freight on these investments is very significant and that breaks down some barriers to adding customers," said the interviewee."This is an effort made by the cabin in the same way as the agreements with rural cards, an effort is made for the interest rate to be more comfortable for customers," he concluded.The schedule of shows for this weekendSchools on alert for reports of attempted kidnappingFrom Austria, to Pampas women's footballPampeans play a bowls tournament in Villa MercedesLas Sombras presents a new albumAttack on Cristina: Justice investigates a previous intelligenceSilence is the worst answerThe son of the murdered couple declared in Vicente LópezDo you want to receive alert notifications?La Arena is a daily morning newspaper, with distribution throughout the province of La Pampa and the center of the country.Contact us: info@laarena.com.ar© Owner: La Arena SA Director Leonardo Santesteban.Legal Address: Bartolomé Miter 339 Santa Rosa La Pampa.DNDA: 57049672.
