Welsh Black cattle are one of the oldest British breeds and are absolutely right for today. While other British breeds have been moving progressively in the direction of the exotics, the Welsh Blacks have stuck with their original pedigree and are well worthy of their tag as the giant of the British breeds. Welsh Black cattle are amongst the fastest growing of all the British breeds, both in rate of gain and weight for age, and their excellent feed conversion achieves this more economically than most.
