For Beef Check The Irish Red Cattle

By Lila Bryant


World over, countries have various cow breeds, in the agricultural sector.It may be for beef, milk and its products, farm work or other uses.Ireland has one of the best beef cattle, Irish red cattle, which is best known for beef.For six decades now, the Irish cattle has been a great source of pride and economic value to the Irish people.

Initially made in America for its inhabitants, the breed possesses some of the most desirable beef producer genetics known in the world. The development process of the Irish hybrid has taken more than fifty years. The process of coming up with this gem, and the modifications to that effect, were done according to the basic functionality requirements stipulated by the beef industry in the States. The instructions guiding the development of this type demanded that animals should attain outstanding performance standards to retain their place in Reds Foundation of blood. This produced the efficient, feed proficient, fertile and superbly performing product which is a source of pride today.

This work is attributed to Mr. Maurice Boney which can be traced back to 1960, in Stamford. He stated and fully dedicated himself to the task of coming up with the great ungulates in Ireland. He goes down the books of history as the father of unparalleled and most genetically powerful cows known today. His interest was to advance a cure to the ever ballooning demand for better beef producer breeds.

The unique breeds bear an inbuilt genetic predictability in addition to their line breeding qualities and close-herd aspects. This has ensured genetic quality of fertility and competitive production in cow meat industry. These results portray the outcome of a very seriously verified, intimately supervised, time consuming and engaging breeding process.

The heifers originate from beef Friesian genotypes with parts of their blood content coming from the ancient Aberdeen Angus traits which are then added to plain parts of the hardworking females. In this process, the excellent commercial females were designed.This was before the Friesian sires found in Ireland were imported to make up the outstanding carcass qualities essential in developing the best beef producers.

By 1971, Maurice locked the herd books containing essential information about the breeding process. For instance how to specialize Friesian blood in the Irish cows and give them protection. The process that produced the Irish cattle was successful due to the great amount of time spent and the many tests that were involved in the development process. This process mainly considered the satisfaction of US beef sellers and buyers. Several elements such as softness, marbling, and tastiness of the product were some of primary qualities considered in coming up with the final product.

These Irish gems are optimally functional, good in structure, and greatly cut on the labor requirements unlike other breeds.

These animals offer dependable and predictable beef gene combinations which are used to produce similar qualities of cattle in America.In an effort to protect the purity of the breeds, its founder Maurice used secure trademarks.

The founder gives many reasons as to why the cattle are preferable such as, purity of their genetics, formidable concentration of genes, their fertile nature, great carcass quality, marketability and their adaptability to various environments.
