The Association

The 19th century saw the first introduction of Aberdeen-Angus cattle to Ireland, a country which has been famous for its cattle for some time now, with Irish stock playing a major role in the foundation of breeding herds throughout the world, particularly in Great Britain and North and South America.

Irish Aberdeen-Angus breeders are dedicated to the work they do and breed the cattle with meticulous care. This is why we now see the Aberdeen Angus as the beef sire of choice in Ireland with over 400,000 calves born annually.
