OPEN DAY UPDATE
Please note: we have made the decision to not hold an official open day this year. It’s been a very busy year with large demand from Europe and across the UK and we have sold out of available breeding cattle for this year …however we are already taking advance orders for next year and are still very happy to make individual arrangements for anyone who would like to see the cattle & find out more about the breed to visit
History of the Lowline Cattle
The Lowline breed was developed in 1974, with the aim of establishing whether large of small animals were more efficient at converting grass into meat. In 2010, Owners Geoff Roper and Nick Weber imported live Lowlines from Canada, and have had rapidly growing success.
Why Choose Lowlines?
Ease of calving
Smaller calves are up on their feet and looking for milk straight away
More beef to the acre
lowlines have a much higher killing out percentage and meat to bone ratio less waste = more beef
Low input
Lowlines will finish on grass so no need for protein or concentrates
Temperament
Docile and easy to handle
Naturally polled
No horns
Good heritage
The original Angus so a well-proportioned animal
Higher stocking density
Stock 2.5 animals per acre
Great taste
Beautiful marbled finish
Shorter gestation
Calve up to two weeks earlier than most beef breeds
