[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 301157, member: 13"] Limousin used to be very, very popular here in Oklahoma. They produce a lot of red meat. They also HAD a reputation for bad dispositon and calving difficulty. The US market rewards marbling (quality grade) and lower backfat (yield grade). Limousin is not marbling breed, but their backfat percentage is very good. Here in OK, crossing them with Angus of either color has become very popular and the North American Limousin Foundation will register those cattle as a Lim-Flex. That seems to be the direction the breed is going, at least in OK. And I think that we have some of the largest Limousin breeders in the US here in OK. [/QUOTE]
