Our Sheep breeding flock of over
5000 ewes and cow herds of over 500 are all run
together under completely commercial conditions
– where only the tough survive and only
the elite thrive.
Our recorded flocks and herds are only separated
at mating and lambing/calving. The remainder of
the year they are part of a large commercial operation
on medium to difficult hill country, which we
are presently developing. Our aim is to have minimum
input to produce maximum output. We have a 30
year proven practical history at developing flock
and herd genetics towards this goal.
We were pioneers in carcass improvement with 18
years of objective measurements placing us at
the forefront of the industry.
No culling is done for age and as long as a cow is sound
and produces a good calf annually and holds together
through a winter rotation she is retained in the herd.
This policy has helped us evolve a strain of beef cow
with hardiness and longevity, and we believe this combined
with our emphasis on productive traits gives Ngaputahi
and our clients a competitive edge in the cattle industry
of today and the future.
We do not consider ourselves “Stud Breeders”
as such since our primary focus is to produce superior
genetics that will profit our commercial operation on
Ngaputahi.
This performance focus produces for you, the commercial
farmer genetics that will thrive and perform in your
environment, excel in productivity and, importantly,
exceed present and future market requirements.
