Thousands of years of isolated natural selection in arid, predatory environments leading to a genetic pre-disposition to collective grazing that builds soil carbon & an exceptional contribution to hybrid vigour in either Bos Indicus or Bos Taurus herds.

The most heat tolerant cattle breed on earth originating from its natural adaptation to the condition in the Kalahari Desert and Lowveld of Zimbabwe. Selected by the leading CSIRO scientists for import to Australia.

Exceptional fertility, milk and meat quality with unrivaled grass conversion efficiency and ability to thrive in severely deficient landscapes while exhibiting a docile low stress temperament. ~ HARTWOOD CATTLE COMPANY
