SMALL, BUT NOT MINIATURE Australian Lowlines are small but not miniature cattle and do not have the adverse genes of some of the miniature cattle breeds. SMALLER BY DESIGN For the last 150 years, beef cattle have been bred to be big to produce the huge slabs of meat that were a symbol of affluence for our ancestors. Australian Lowlines are designed to be smaller and to mature earlier. HEALTH CONSCIOUS Better educated 21st century markets require smaller higher quality cuts of meat with good marbling and just enough sub-cutaneous fat. It is for those markets that Australian Lowlines have been developed. DEFINITELY NOT MINIATURE Australian Lowlines are serious beef cattle that win awards against all comers in carcass competitions. They're cute enough for anyone but they're definitely not miniature. Australian Lowlines. Bred for better beef. |

Very tender And there's a bonus in the beef. It's finely grained and even more tender than the Angus beef we already enjoy. |
