The Tregondale Pedigree South Devon Herd
Welcome to the Tregondale Herd of prize winning South Devons.
We are a family run farm at Tregondale, Menheniot, in South East Cornwall. Situated in an attractive valley close to Liskeard we farm 290 acres.
Keeping 80 Pedigree South Devon suckler cows, they are renowned for their docility and make good milky dams. Calving mainly in the spring.
ABRI recorded, Health Scheme assured, DNA and Myostatin tested, electronic tagging system for recording.
We produce
- Prime Beef, South Devons are an excellent forage convertor into meat achieving 380+ Kilos at 18 months.
- Pedigree Breeding Heifers, with excellent maternal ability ensuring fast growth and longevity with consistant breeding, converting grass to milk.
- Quality Breeding Bulls, which are hardy and suitable as a terminal sire.
Also, 50 purebred Devon and Cornwall Longwool ewes, we pedigree register the ewes and 100 longwool x Suffolk ewes lambing in February. Lambs are sold through CQLP.
Tregondale is a traditionally run farm growing our own cereals and crops we try to be as self sufficient as we can to maintain rotation of our pastures.
Our main interest and pride is studying the breeding of our cattle for natural fleshing, size and ease of calving and also enjoy showing our cattle at agricultural shows.
