Galloways, with their unique double coat of hair, are an extremely versatile breed which withstands extremes of temperature and climate. They have the ability to forage and thrive in sparse hill conditions or perform outstandingly on high grade pasture. Galloways have great carcass qualities and have a high yield of excellent red meat. Using Galloways and their crosses it is easy to obtain optimum fat cover and heavy muscling to suit most trade requirements and new marketing techniques. Galloways are an extremely fertile breed regularly producing a vigorous live calf. The Galloway cow is noted for ease of calving, is a protective mother and has an abundant supply of milk. Galloways are long living, very resistant to disease, easy to manage and create strong hybrid vigour due to the purity of their breed. Galloway cattle are indeed "the efficient breed" turning grass into quality red meat simply and economically. |
