WAGYU 101

Everything you need to know about Wagyu genomics and this sales event

The American Wagyu Association promotes and upholds the standards for Wagyu beef, the finest quality of beef available in the United States.

Highly prized for their rich flavor, these cattle produce arguably the finest beef in the world. Wagyu cattle's genetic predisposition yields a beef that contains a higher percentage of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids than typical beef.

Australia is the largest exporter of Wagyu beef in the world with an estimated value of boxed production for 2023 of AUD $2.0 billion. Approximately 80% of Australian Wagyu beef is exported to over 40 countries.

To achieve quality Wagyu beef, genetics and nutrition play an important role. Australian Wagyu is initially grass fed on prime Australian pasture before making a gentle transition to grain to achieve the marbled beef quality that it is renowned for.

With a heavier carcase weight and superior eating quality to most beef breeds, individual carcasses attract a high economic return. To achieve optimum outcomes, Australian Wagyu breeding uses the Australian Wagyu BREEDPLAN genetic evaluation system, which is the largest Wagyu breed genetic evaluation published outside Japan.

Same as any livestock auction, however with the standard format used by Studwagyuauction.com. There may be a reserve placed by the consignor on any entry. If the lot fails to reach the reserve the lot will not be sold. This reserve may be a hidden reserve which will not come into play once the bidding has surpassed it. If the lot does not sell, the sales company may (with the consignor’s approval) offer the lot to the underbidder. Many lots will sell with no reserve, and that do not incur no commission from the sales company.
