Why Aberdeen Angus?
They are a breed of cattle that offers producers distinct advantages, such as smaller carbon footprint, superior efficiency on forage-only diets, and a desirable end product.
Aberdeens have maintained the features that made Angus cattle popular, such as structural correctness, docile nature, and maternal traits.
Aberdeens consume less feed than larger cattle breeds, while weaning a calf that is a higher percentage of their body weight. This leads to lower costs and higher profits for cattle operations.
Aberdeens offer a carcass with modern-sized portions that appeal to most consumers who are not looking for large steaks.
