The Hallsford herd of Beef Shorthorns was established in 1999 when we moved to Cumbria.
Why Beef Shorthorns?
There were a number of reasons why we chose Beef Shorthorns, but principally we felt that the animal ideally suited the environment and the system of farming we wished to adopt.
- Low input, Quality Output
- Easy Calving. Fertile
- Lovely temperament, Easy handling
- Hardy, Sound and Long Lived
- A number of Markets for the Finished Product
We strongly felt and still do, that in the current farming climate we needed a farming system that was Low Input based (Less susceptible to input prices changes) and had the opportunity to develop quality outputs where a premium could be sought in niche and developing, not commodity, markets. Those markets are:
- A good pedigree market
- Distinct Brand, Farm Retail Meat Sales. (Internet, Farmers Markets, Food Fairs)
Shorthorn is increasingly being recognised as a Quality Beef Brand.
