🐄 Getting to Know Our Cow
At Jupiter Cattle Farm, our cows are more than just part of the landscape—they’re part of the family. Each one is raised with care, respect, and attention to their health and comfort.
🐮 Meet Our Cows
Our herd includes some of Australia’s finest cattle breeds, such as Angus, Hereford, and Charolais crosses. These cows are known for their calm nature, excellent meat quality, and adaptability to our climate here in Moorooduc, Victoria.
🌾 How They Live
Our cows roam freely across wide, green paddocks where they graze naturally on nutrient-rich grass. We supplement their diet with high-quality hay and silage during the cooler months to keep them strong and healthy all year round.
🧡 How We Care
We believe a healthy cow is a happy cow. That’s why we practice low-stress handling, maintain clean water sources, and provide regular health checks. Our staff are trained to recognize signs of discomfort or illness early, ensuring every cow gets the attention it needs.
📦 From Paddock to Plate
Our cows are raised with the highest standards of traceability and animal welfare, which is why our beef is trusted locally and internationally. Whether destined for breeding, export, or the dinner table, each cow is part of a transparent, ethical process.
🐂 Getting to Know Our Bull
At Jupiter Cattle Farm, our bulls are the powerhouses behind the strength, genetics, and future of our herd. Handpicked for their superior traits, our bulls play a vital role in producing healthy, high-performing cattle that meet both local and international standards.

Each bull is carefully selected and matched to complement our breeding program, ensuring the next generation of calves carries the best possible traits for meat quality, growth rate, and hardiness.
🧬 Sire Selection with a Purpose
We focus on genetic improvement, using bulls with:
-
Proven Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs)
