Global Delegates visit Bald Blair Angus

Kirsty, Abbott, Arthur and Sam White with community volunteer Mara Grills

13th May 2025

The eyes of the international beef industry turned to Guyra on Monday, May 5th, when Bald Blair Angus welcomed over 250 delegates from around the world as part of the 2025 World Angus Forum.
The World Angus Forum is a global event that brings together Angus cattle breeders, enthusiasts, and industry professionals from around the world.
World Angus Forum travellers visited the White family’s Bald Blair Angus stud on their way from Tamworth to Brisbane. Bald Blair has been in the White family for 127 years and has been breeding registered Angus Cattle since 1908. The herd currently stands at 800 Breeding Cows, a 50/50 split between Seedstock and Commercial production.
The visit shone a light on the importance of agriculture to the local economy, with international guests gaining first-hand insight into how Guyra leads in sustainable and innovative cattle breeding
Bald Blair principal Sam White, with his wife Kirsty and children Abbott and Arthur, welcomed the visitors, and related to them the successful succession planning that the family has managed to achieve - both in terms of their nuclear family and of the progressive Angus herd.
The extended White family have been living and working in the Guyra district for seven generations, with Sam’s cousins Frank, Andrew and their families also still actively involved in Angus production.
Involvement in the Angus Society has long been a family affair, with great uncle JC White its first president, followed by grandfather HF White while Sam’s father Richard, as president, came up with the brilliant idea of hosting a first-ever world forum. Sam took his turn at the role, three years ago.
The visit was not just a showcase of quality Angus genetics – it was also a celebration of Guyra’s rich agricultural heritage, community spirit, and local talent.
Strong connections with the local community were evident, with volunteers providing morning tea, highlighting the role of local schools in regional events.
“We are proud to be part of our local district, with strong ties with the Bald Blair School and the wider community,” Sam said.
“Thank you to the P & C and their team of volunteers for their
efforts.”
“Thank you also to the Bald Blair team and to my wife Kirsty for all you encouragement and support in preparing for this day.
“Many connections are made in this business, many connections and life time friendships are formed at these World Forums - we remain forever grateful for these breed of cattle.”
