Jarrah Reds
The Jarrah Reds are designed to be a type of animal that fits the bill of a ‘clean-coated flatback’. The Jarrah Reds are now stabilised up to 7 generations, offering consistency in constitution and performance.
A blend between our Redford genetics and Santa Gertrudis. The Redfords are pure red cattle with a minimum 25% Jarrah Hereford and the remaining percentage Red Brahman. This, combined with the Santa Gertrudis results in an animal that is approximately 50:50 British:Brahman content.
The Jarrah Red Advantage
- Outcross genetics: a breeding alternative to breeds such as Droughtmaster and Santa Gertrudis.
- Market compliance: soft enough for premium ‘flatback’ markets, yet hardy enough for live export.
- Fertility: yearling mated, seasonally joined with a strict culling of empties.
- Tropically adapted: successfully utilised in Northern Australia, Western QLD and across Central QLD performing under a range of conditions
- Commerically focused: bred under commercial pressures, the Jarrah Red are a low maintenance, high performing breeding option.
- Backed by performance data
Goodwood Pastoral Company first purchased Jarrah Red bulls in 2015, these bulls have exceeded our expectations and adapted to our climate and landscape very well, producing lovely calves and holding their paddock condition while working.
