For the small acreage owner Australian Lowline Cattle –

• Offer a better $ per acre return than larger conventional cattle

• The general rule is that 10 Lowline cattle can be run where 6 normal cattle graze

• Freezer size carcase for those wanting to produce their own beef

• A polled (no horns) animal with a quiet temperament, easily handled with a minimum of equipment needed.

• Cows calve easily as the calves average 22kg birth weight compared to larger breeds whose calves weigh in the 40 – 50 kg range

• An animal producing smaller cuts of tasty tender beef, sought after by today’s discerning beef connoisseur

• Bulls suitable for commercial use over heifers of all breeds to ensure ease of calving
