Cattleland Feedyards Ltd

Cattleland's research facility is situated in the heart of Alberta's cattle country. Our commercial research involves exclusive and confidential trials to validate new pharmaceutical and feed ingredient products and/or protocols that enhance weight gain, have a health benefit or reduce handling and stress. The in-house component is geared toward improving efficiencies of Cattleland's feedlot, backgrounding and cow-calf operations, as well as adding value for producer clients in the bull test program. Toward that end, most of the In-house research at the moment is focused on net feed efficiency or residual feed intake (RFI) testing. The research facility can accommodate up to 13,000 head of research cattle with access to: • 50 small scale pens, • 8 RFID pens with GrowSafe system, • 40 medium pens • 20 medium to large pens • 20 large scale research pens.
