NEW GENES IN LIVESTOCK
With the aim of promoting cattle genetic improvement in Roraima, AG Agropecuária brought the semen of Angus Black Opel Tomahawk bulls to the local market, such as ease of calving, weight gain, marbling and tenderness of the meat, being developed 100% with embryos Americans selected to truly offer the best genetics, providing meat with more quality in view of the current trend in the world market, and, Wagyu bull AKIHITO Japanese lineage, contracted by the international genetic improvement company CRV Lagoa, with more than 14 thousand doses being sold, following as one of the best in the category ranking in marbling, carcass finishing and good weight performance, especially for the special meat program.
In special tribute to the welcoming state, Ag Agropecuária together with partners, doctors Ana Carolina Santos and Paulo Su, carefully chosen in the South of the country, the Brangus bull was named MONTE RORAIMA, a name that comes from the Pemons indigenous people, a large mountain with impressive landscapes. Brangus is a synthetic breed that combines the recognized precocity of the Angus, fertility, maternal ability, feed conversion, longevity, resistance to parasites and rusticity of the Zebu with marbling.
The MONTE RORAIMA bull is the son of the American FINAL CUT bull from the Suhn Cattle Company in Kansas, being evaluated by experts with extraordinary weight gain performance and withstanding very high summer temperatures in the central region of Brazil and in the north of the country.
