About Lowline Angus Cattle
What is a lowline?
Lowline Angus cattle were developed in Australia and are based on purebred Aberdeen Angus stock imported from Canada in 1929. They were the outcome of decades of careful breeding and selection. They began to appear in the US in the 1990's and are quickly gaining recognition as the ideal beef stock.
