About the Breed

Limousin cattle are known for their high-quality, lean beef, excellent feed efficiency, and strong muscling, making them a popular choice for both commercial beef production and crossbreeding.

In today’s competitive markets, taking advantage of all available opportunities is key. The Limousin breed offers a variety of options from Fullblood to Purebred to the Lim-Flex hybrid (Limousin x Angus cross) to match your program’s needs and market goals. Crossbreeding for the right blend of muscle, maternal ability and profit is easy with Limousin seedstock.

Superior Feed Efficiency: The Limousin breed has documented advantages in feed efficiency and is a proven leader in carcass cutability and retail yield. The combination of these attributes result in more saleable beef produced per pound of feed consumed. That means increased efficiency and improved sustainability.

Improved Marbling: Limousin breeders have capitalized on genomic testing and demonstrated a commitment to the collection of actual carcass phenotypes to identify and propagate superior carcass genetics. Today, the Limousin breed leads the industry with over 135,000 actual carcass phenotype records included in its registry. These efforts have resulted in significant improvement in marbling for both Limousin and Lim-Flex cattle and have provided more accurate E.P.D.’s for commercial producers to use in developing targeted crossbreeding systems with Limousin and Lim-Flex genetics.
