• Purebred Program: F4+ (93% -99.9% Wagyu)

• Fullblood Program: 100% Fullblood Wagyu

• A combination of two or more


What should you consider?

• Current Resources: Cattle, land, feed, infrastructure, etc.

• Your Goals & Strengths: i.e. Produce premium beef, strong cattle management

team, etc.

• End/T


Use Superior Maternal Lines!

  • The Maternal line/side of the pedigree is more important to us than the paternal line. Through practical research and observation of both the dairy and beef cattle industry over the last 30+ years, we have noticed along with many others that certain maternal lines sort themselves to the top in their ability to transmit genetic improvement to the next generation. This is most noticeable when examining the top-ranking sires of a breed over a period of years. A fantastic example of this in Wagyu is the Hikokura maternal line has produced numerous top-ranking bulls on the Australian system.
