Genetics and open pasture
Our Cattle
Herd
Quality starts with adapted genetics.
The herd is based on crossbreeding European Angus and Hereford with Zebu breeds such as Nelore and Brahman, with growing emphasis on Brangus.
European genetics support meat quality; Zebu influence supports adaptation to the Chaco's climate and environment.
Production
From breeding to natural beef.
La Huella covers the production cycle from breeding and rearing to fattening and sales. Breeding bulls and high-quality donor semen continuously improve the herd.
Calving begins in July. Calves grow on mother's milk and grass and are separated at around nine months.
2. Rearing
Female calves with the right potential become high-quality suckler cows.
3. Fattening
Predominantly male calves usually reach selling weight after 18 to 24 months.
Export
Certified for demanding markets.
La Huella meets international requirements for hygiene, animal welfare, and monitoring. Paraguay exports a large share of its beef production.
Around 10,000 animals are sold each year, including fattening cattle, suckler cows, and breeding bulls.
