The saying “Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence. This saying, by Colin Powell definitely applies to the Wagyu producer. Every cloud has a silver lining and a recent newsletter from Australia mentions that the last year (2020) was the most difficult in their history but that the […]

Covid rules will be very strictly enforced, but we hope to have at least 100 people at the Congress. The congress will be presented both in-person and virtually. No lectures will be presented this year. However, we will rather focus on our fantastic product and have fun together. The theme is “Let’s celebrate Wagyu meat”. […]
Neem asb. kennis: Soos op die module kursus 1 genoem is het ons, ons samespreking met die staat gefinaliseer. U sal die eerste jaar nadat die kontrak geteken is ‘n volledige oudit kry en daarna ‘n “papier” oudit vir die volgende twee jaar, d.w.s. elektronies om seker te maak die diere is op die databasis […]
After nearly six months of negotiation, we have finalised our agreement with CPG, SAMIC and the Department of Agriculture regarding the CWB audits.

Die karkas eienaar kan op 5/6 of op 12/13 rib laat slag vir vet diepte. Alle karkas data, die eienaar asook die koper van die […]
Omdat baie van ons telers se diere by Morgan is, besoek die kantoor Morgan om op ‘n gereelde basis te sorg dat die voerkraal aan die CWB protokol voldoen. Ons gee as volg terugvoer: Genootskap oorplaaitjie (RFID) nou 100% in werking. Die kantoor het dit self getoets. Morgan gebruik die nuwe Gigalot sagteware wat beide […]
The Wagyu charges you only a once-off fee for the base (commercial) cows for your F1 heifers upgrading to seedstock/stud (a standard practice in many of the societies in the stud industry). If the heifers are to be used for slaughter, they should be moved to the CWB register (no fee is charged). You must […]
Die protokol wat op die plaas moet gebeur voordat diere na ‘n voerkraal gestuur word: Bulle moet verkieslik voor ‘n ouderdom van 3 maande gekastreer wees en beslis voor 5 maande. Daar moet reeds ‘n geboorte asook ‘n speengewig op die plaas geneem wees en daar moet ten minste teen 0.6 kg per GDT oor […]
We have had a good response from members taking up our offer of subsided SNP tests for Purebred and fullblood cattle. Ideally we should be SNP’ing the F1 progeny for their carcass data but realize that this might be prohibitively expensive. The offer to members to move to SNP’s for the purebreds and fullbloods, where […]
