Why Lowlines ...

We have always maintained a very progressive herd of Registered Angus Cows. We appreciate them for all of their classic "Angus" characteristics that has made them ideal for our program. The only way we could see improving upon their overall efficiency was to be able to run more of them on our farm. Jeff came across some information on Lowlines and began to get very intrigued with what seemed like a breed of cattle more efficient than Angus. We liked the consistency that the breed represented and the integrity that the DNA typing provided. We were excited about the possibility of expanding our opportunities without sacrificing the attributes we valued in our Angus operation.

Overall, Lowlines are able to provide us with the ideal product to meet our current and future needs. They are hearty and rugged, homozygous black and polled, and we can maintain three Lowlines on what we could previously maintain only one conventional Angus female. With the increasing value of crop ground in our area and high feed costs, it has become more significant than ever to maintain more cattle on less acreage and less feed. Lowlines offer strong maternal traits, excellent phenotype, and an exceptional retail product for mainstream, commercial, and niche market opportunities. With the current economy many of the efficiency traits that Lowlines posses have secured their place in the cattle industry for the future. Lowlines also posses a carcass that is of a more desirable size for most consumers and offers ribeyes that are up to 30% larger than what would proportionately be expected from their carcass.

There is no doubt in our minds that Lowlines are a perfect fit for us and for our industry now and for many years to come!
