To Mighty Angus in Marlborough, they raise bulls and they sell bulls. They have been in the bull breeding game for half a century at To Mighty Angus. And they have just set their first national record for how much they've sold one of their bulls for. Oh, congrats to them. I had no idea you could pay this amount of money for a bull, but they've just sold a bull for $168,000. What?
Yeah, it's a black Angus bull.
That bull's semen must be like liquid gold.
Yeah, he's a whopper too. He's an 850kg sire.
Chapter 3: What factors contribute to the high price of bull semen?
Holy hell. He's a breeder and he's off to live the good life in Gisborne. You literally just, well, I assume you just buy these bulls to get your other cows pregnant with high quality.

Chapter 5: What is the market price for high-quality bull semen?
What do you reckon about $168,000 for a bull, Steve? Is that good buying?
Pretty fair. Well, obviously the breeding's there and the demand's there. So, yeah, I've seen those prices before and I've seen higher.
Dad, you're not bloody spending my inheritance on bulls that expensive, are you?
Rihanna, when they're good quality bulls, I mean bulls, you've got to pay the money, mate.
But you don't buy the bulls, do you? The shipping's too high. You just buy the semen.

How much, Dad, because you bought, I know for a fact you did import some bull semen from America, some speckled park. How much did you pay for that vial?
