About Manitou Maine-Anjou
In the Maine-Anjou industry there is a movement back to the basics, being Fullblood genetics. As a Maine-Anjou breeder since 1970, we have always maintained that the power of the breed is primarily in Fullbloods. Many breeders are once again, or for the first time, realizing this to be true. Their docility, feed efficiency, and high yield with large loin areas are definitely a must in today's beef industry.
We have consistently used Fullblood herd sires. Our Fullblood program is one of a few remaining Fullblood herds which offers you the opportunity to purchase cattle from some excellent blood lines.
Our fullblood program has produced one of the very best fullblood herds in Canada which offers you the opportunity to purchase some excellent bloodlines.

We have recently sent semen and embryos to Brazil with hopes that Maine Anjou can become established there. The red and white cattle are exactly the type of cattle Brazil can use. A color and crossing ability are desirable and suited for their climate and beef production.
France 2008, 100th Anniversary of Maine Anjou Cattle

When you travel through western France, it is a real treat to see field after field of true Maine Anjou cattle. The beauty of this breed is everywhere. It is amazing to experience the gentleness of this cattle in their native country. The beef from this breed is all consumed in France. It still remains the largest breed, by size, in France. It was interesting as well to be on farms that I visited in the early 1970s.
