Today we are harvesting the fruits of many years of dedicated breeding, commitment and our love for the cattle; nature and God. Kroon Vee was the proud winner of the Landbouweekblad / Breedplan Stud Breeder of the Year 2008. Our greatest achievement is that the genetic material that we produced is of a high quality, and sires have been used in many well-known herds with excellent results. In doing so we have assured many regular clients as far as Botswana and Namibia. Breeders who purchased female genetic material are highly satisfied with their performance. We have had many a success in breeding quality Show Champions and embryos have also been exported to Australia.
