Everybody speaks about feeding steers on pasture. But pasture is not the only factor that influences meat. Genetics are also very important. Please read this interesting scientific publication from France about feeding Blonde d'Aquitaine and Charolais steers on pasture: Muscular and tenderness...

Good morning from Germany: We are about to wean calves out of the Canadian homozygous polled Blonde d'Aquitaine bull Rainier 11R and French Blonde d'Aquitaine cows. I think that the use of the best genetics of both countries is not bad. Please tell me your opinion about this heterozygous polled...

Good morning from Germany: We are learning more and more about our Blonde d'Aquitaine cattle. Last week we slaughtered a 20 month old bull, the 4th one this year (we slaughter 90 % of our bulls). The carcasse weight (frish) was 540 kg and we sold after maturating it for 2 weeks 395 kg net meat...

The American Heart Association’s® recommends some lean meat cuts as "hearth friendly". New challenge for defining genetics? http://bit.ly/lean-beef

Very interesting article. It confirms the complexity of the market. At the end of the day the only thing that counts is that your pockets aren't empty. Consequently I have to produce what my customers want to buy. Here in Franconia, Germany, the customers want lean light marbled meat raised in...

An interesting way to produce less fatty carcasses but longer high-end cuts :?: [url]http://postimg.org/gallery/1jeh7jby//url]

USA consumers eat more lean ground beef! The Rabobank statement is that between 1/3 and 1/2 of the animals should be raised primarily to produce ground beef. This is a shock for breeders because their breeding programs are based on producing choice and prime grade products.The question is what...

The Blond d'Aquitaine breed is getting more and more popular in Germany because only one reason besides the typical ones all breeder expose about their cattle (maternal ability, calving ease, etc...) and this is: Better price for the carcasses. The European Classification System rewards young...

It is not more a dream: Fullblood Homozygous Polled Blonde d´Aquitaine calves imported as embryos from Canada are now part of our herd in Germany. Their sire and dam are homozygous polled (PP) what means that their descendants are also naturally polled and so also the descendants of our calves...

Sorry about the late answer. Yes we do. We feed hay, cornsilage, grassilage and some corn.

Thank you all very much for the comments. The bulls were born last year in June and July (see new pics). Job description = High conception is the first duty. If you are not using sexed semen, you need to get a balance between good carcasses and good mothers. And that is the difference between...

Hello from Germany: I want to share with you pictures of young bulls produced by AI in very good herdbook cows of our herd. We use French proven sires with excellent easy calving EPDs, good milk and good carcasses. Of course, the better the cow the better the calf. In this pictures you can see...

Before calving she was 1874 lb
