Brangus

Brangus is a breed of beef cattle that originated in the United States in the 1970s. It is a crossbreed, resulting from the mating of Brahman cattle with Angus cattle. The Brahman breed is known for its heat tolerance and disease resistance, while the Angus breed is valued for its high-quality beef and docile temperament. The Brangus breed combines these traits, making it well-suited for both hot and cold climates, and resistant to common cattle diseases. It is also known for its efficient feed conversion, which means it can produce more meat per unit of feed consumed compared to some other breeds. Brangus cattle are typically used for beef production, with a focus on lean, high-quality meat. They are also used for crossbreeding with other cattle breeds to improve traits such as heat tolerance and disease resistance. The Brangus breed is recognized by the American Brangus Association and the International Brangus Association.
