Lowline Angus Bulls

Jeff Schaefer, Schaefer Angus, SD





Neil Effertz, Effertz EZ Ranch, ND

Lowline and Lowline X

These rigorously selected Lowline genetics have been raised on a forage diet successfully for the Thousand Hills Grass fed program and have been harvested at the Lorenz beef processing facilities at Cannon Falls, Minnesota. We are the first importers of the Lowline breed from Australia where they were developed by the New South Wales Department of Agriculture from a dwarf free set of Registered Angus cattle selecting for small mature frame size over 30 years in a closed herd with 14 different sire lines. We routinely see ribeye areas of 1.3 to 1.6 square inches of Ribeye per hundredweight which translate into incredible red meat yield on a highly marbled carcass raised on a forage diet.
The Central Grasslands Research Center has been using our genetics for the last few years for calving ease on first calf heifers and forage finishing the resulting halfblood offspring. The Halfblood Lowline steers out of our genetics had an average carcass weight of 593 when slaughtered at 18 to 24 months off a forage based diet. Their frame score generally was in the frame score 2 to 4 range.
The grain fed Lowline cross steers in this trial were fed an average of 130 days after forage only for an average 684 pound carcass weight, average yield grade 2.6 and 100 % choice carcasses.
