[QUOTE="Zoofarmer, post: 104298, member: 3058"] They are that! Have a herd here in Wicklow, an hour from Dublin airport. Have circa 60 breeding pure females. I find them to b exceptional suckler dams. They have ample milk, good R grade confirmation, will calve down culard Charolais or blues no problem, easy to work with, and exceptional beef qualities!!! In France they number closer to 150000 breeding females of which around 30000 are monitored. They are the fastest growing beef breed in France, and have the highest return rate of young people to farming of all the French breeds. They have been in Ireland for fifteen with all seed stock, barring 3 embryos, being sourced from the top herds in France. There are now over 1000 breeding females in Ireland, and interest is growing. In our national bull testing station the Aubrac has consistently come up with the best feed efficiency figures year on year. As a friend of mine says The Aubrac can b beaten on nearly every individual trait (blues have more muscle, simmental have more milk, saler have wider pelvis), but as a package they can not be beaten.
