HEART ANGUS
Heart Angus is run by the Paterson family 10km south of AELEC, Tamworth in the New England Highway. The stud was established in 2011 with an aim to produce productive cattle to suit all markets, with a focus being on breeding easy doing, fertile animals which are deep bodied and well-muscled.
