Galloways Australia was formed in December 1997 by a number of Australian Galloway cattle breeders to promote, protect and market the three breeds within the Galloway Family to the beef industry.
Galloways Australia is committed to:
- promoting Galloway cattle and Galloway beef
- developing group marketing strategies
- foster performance measurement, recording, quality control systems
- encourage the maintenance of quality Galloway seedstock
- supporting our members and educating others
- encouraging collaboration and shared learning, and
- providing quality systems for administration.
Our Galloway Cattle
Our animals are known for
- Calving ease, great mothering and fertility
- producing well marbled, flavoursome, juicy and tender meat from grass
- great feed efficiency and non-selective grazing habits,and
- inquisitive, easy to handle and train.
The Galloway is one of the oldest recorded cattle breeds in the world and possibly one of the purist.
The Galloway Family consists of three distinct breeds
- Galloway Cattle
- Belted Galloway
- White Galloway
We believe we have something special to offer both large and small beef enterprises.
