Bred for the Future, Designed for the Cattleman
Our Angus Focus |
The 3R Angus program was established in 2018 with the selection of highly proven maternal lines. The program has been specifically designed to breed cattle with balance and wide application to the beef industry. To achieve such we utilise genetics aligned to the demands of the Commercial Cattleman. We focus on the mother cow and imparting maternal value into our cattle. Strong cows are proven to produce big, strong, masculine sons and sweet, fertile daughters - the kind that build a commercial herd.
