Rockin L Lowlines. When I was diagnosed with CIDP and was not able to work much we looked for an alternative to our Dorper sheep. We found that for small acreages the Lowline beef cattle are perfect.

Lowlines require much less work than the sheep and are very easy to manage. They are more like pets than cattle, and kids love them. They don't require a lot of feed and they return much higher profits than full size cattle or sheep. They are also more ecologically friendly because they are easier on the pastures than full size cattle. Lowlines finish well on grass and they are great for natural, health conscious programs. We sell our Lowline cross steers for meat.

Do you have a small acreage? Lowlines qualify you for an agricultural tax exemption if you only have 3 or 4 acres. This alone will save you enough to pay for them. Along with feed efficiency and ease of handling you get the advantages of premium prices. At the 2006 national lowline sale 54 head, (40 fullbloods and 14 percentage females and 3 percentage bulls) averaged over $5500 per head! Lowlines are a joy to work with and very rewarding financially, and the fact that they are the best beef on the market helps.
