The first Maungahina Northern Star (MAU N263) progeny born at JAD were among our 2022-drops (T-drops), with more in our U-drop and V-drops. We selected Northern Star as a continuation of our goal towards improving fats in our cattle. Northern Star is sired by Maungahina Kidmans Cove, who has the highest IMF EBV in the Speckle Park breed. As at November 2023, Northern Star had the second highest IMF EBV in the breed, and it is breeding on in his progeny within our herd too.
