Necessity
brought about the creation and development of the Santa Gertrudis breed of beef
cattle. It was desirable in the eyes of those at the King Ranch, Texas, USA
where the breed was developed, that other cattlemen should enjoy the benefits of
increased production, even in harsh conditions that could be obtained by these
cattle.
Since arriving in Australia Santa Gertrudis have gone on to become one of the
leading breeds of beef cattle excelling in the areas of cross breeding, weightfor age, food conversion efficiency and daily weight gain.
Santa Gertrudis use a stringent classification system which ensures any cattle
branded with an 'S' or 'S' meet the minimum Standard of Classification and are
accepted into the Association Stud Book.
