Sussex Cattle Breeders' Society Of Sa
Sussex are one of the oldest pure cattle breeds in the world. Sussex beef quality was confirmed in recent consumer taste tests in 2012 and 2013 with one standout comment by culinary journalists and chefs in the run-up to the Ultimate Beef Challenge last year, namely the best sirloin ever judged in the competition.Sussex bulls almost always have a good work rate (libido) with high pre-potency, hardiness, and often above average post weaning growth. Sussex cows are invariably good milkers with a high butterfat content leading to higher weaning weights and relative early maturity. They are quiet and easy to manage. They have won many block tests and are sought after by feedlots. Sussex have a blocky conformation with a medium-large frame. Their even dark brown coats are much improved over earlier years - smooth in summer with a relatively short dense coat in winter. The breed has proven high tolerance to heat and cold and will adapt to changes in climatic conditions. Both horned and polled types are bred in SA, showing good muscling / depth. They produce a quality carcass with an even fat layer. Sussex cows weigh 520-620kg, while bulls generally weigh 800kg+- when two years old. They have high live-weight gain potential with an economic feed conversion rate although their feed intake is higher than the indigenous breeds. With average management cows consistently achieve high conception rates, and in many areas calving percentages of 90% and higher are fairly common. It is usual for Sussex calves to wean above 200kg from medium framed dams at an age of six or seven months. Breeders can attest to the ability of cows to maintain their condition even while raising a calf. While this may not lead to a high cow/calf ratio (weight of weaned calf to dam), cows go into winter in much better condition. This also means a definite reduction of expense in fattening old cows after a productive life of 10 or 11 years,

Additional to this leading South African wildlife breeders and genetic experts have been involved in developing the WS2 system that is tailor made to the South African Wildlife Ranching Industry. The system also takes into consideration that wildlife movement is limited to game parks and private game ranches.
