Our Genetics

Testimonials

“The fertility of our cattle blows me away.  With the yearling heifers we’re getting 96-98% in two cycles, consistently.  We also have no calving issues at all and I believe it’s directly credited back to the Storth Oaks bloodlines.”

- Rob Craw, Ohana Farms, Coromandel

“Since using Storth Oaks bulls not only has our carcase quality improved but so has our fertility. In February 2022 we have just had our best in-calf scanning with our first calving heifers, 94% in calf. 

- Kim Dodgshun, Nicks Head Station, Gisborne

Quality Beef

The right genetics provide the fundamental foundation to producing the finest quality beef that consumers now demand.  With that boxed ticked you are more than 50% of the way to being able to then provide animal welfare and correct nutrition to achieve premium grid payments.
