“As per subject matter, Green Dairy purchased 220 dairy heifers from Clifton Meadows three years ago. The Heifers were well bred and despite the long trip (over 3000km) acclimatised smoothly to our conditions here in Zambia.
The quarantine and transport process was handled entirely by Clifton Meadows and we were regularly updated on progress. It is our opinion that the medium frame heifers fare better in the warmer climates with superior production per kg live weight and shorter inter-calving periods. We would gladly recommend Clifton Meadows to anyone requiring AI bred, hardy and functional dairy cattle.”

“Danmoz is an integrated Dairy Business based in Chimoio, Mozambique. Over the last 5 years it has purchased 350 dairy heifers from Clifton Meadows Farm in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. Danmoz has been pleased with the genetic merit of the animals received as well as their condition on arrival. Heifers received have been hardy and produced well despite the tough hot tropical conditions and general parasitic load of the environment.
We would be happy to recommend Clifton Meadows to any potential client as they have a large selection of quality heifers who have undergone intensive vaccination programs.”
