Lowline Cattle - Livestock showcase - Scottish Smallholder Festival 2020

The Lowline is among the smallest of cattle breeds. Height is about 60% of that of the normal Aberdeen Angus breed, or about 110 cm for bulls and 100 cm for cows. Lowline cattle are very definitely a beef breed, naturally polled and generally black, and are 100% Aberdeen Angus, derived from its origins in the original Aberdeen Angus genetics of the early 1900s. Lowline cattle do not carry the Dwarfism gene which many small or “minature” breeds have. Even first time heifers show ease of calving. The cattle are naturally docile and very easily handled and are the perfect breed for the small acre farmer. They are a versatile breed that adapts well to both cool and warm climates; they do not need to be over-wintered indoors, soil conditions permitting. This video is part of the rare and native breed livestock showcase for the 2020 Scottish Smallholder Festival, organised by Smallholding Scotland. Produced by Wessex Lowlines.
