Beef By Genetics
Bull Sale 5 June 2024
The Scientific Approach
At Storth Oaks we take a scientific approach to stud breeding. By making breeding decisions based on factual, scientific data, we can increase profitability for our clients and improve the end beef product for the consumer. A better end product means higher premiums for the producer.
Our Story
In a journey that hails right back to the Brittain’s family homestead in Yorkshire, England, Storth Oaks (meaning strong) in Otorohanga was purchased by Tim Brittain in 1980, and it was then that the quest for quality beef began.
Farmed in an entirely commercial manner, the operation has its primary focus set on profitability — fertility, growth and carcass quality.
Our Genetics
DNA technology is a critical part of the Storth Oaks breeding program and contributes greatly to our completeness of recording. We use technology to enhance our breeding programme and ensure all our pedigrees are correct. In addition, the use of HD50K across our entire herd allows us to speed up our genetic gain by selecting early, those animals that are going to take us forward more quickly.
