Neuman Newsletter - July 2014
2013/2014 was a season that will be remembered for its drought. We, however, in the North Eastern Free State were blessed and had more than our annual quota of rain.
As farmers, this year has meant that, although the world population is growing, we will have to produce more with the same limited resources. That is why it is so important that we constantly select animals that require less input and can provide maximum output.

The 2012/2013 season will be remembered by a feeling of gratefulness for all the rain we received. The crops are looking good and the cattle are in a good condition. We, in the North-Eastern Free State have really been blessed and I sympathize with all the farmers who are battling under severe drought, especially those in the Southern Free State and North West Province.

Drakensberger Meat Honored by The Local Grill
What a special day!!!! Monday the 4th of March 2013, is a day I believe would be remembered for a long time. The Drakensberger Society made history by introducing Drakensberger meat at a Restaurant called, The Local Grill Parktown North, in Johannesburg. Because Drakensberger beef performed so well during the Ultimate beef challenge it was honored by the Local Grill, dedicating the month of March to Drakensberger beef.
Beef enthusiasts and breeders sat down at 12 o clock when Steve Maresh, the owner of Local Grill, opened the day by welcoming everybody. He brought across the message from "field to fork" which captured the attention of the crowd. After eating Drakensberger ribblets as a starter Willie Landman, representing the Drakensberger society, gave a brief background history of our beloved cattle. A task which I believe he did with a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm and gained many a friend for our breed.
Present at this function was, Weber, Deli spice, Rib shack Red, and Karan Beef. The established food magazine called Food and Home were present as well as a writer from the Sunday Times Newspaper.
Jodee- Ann Pearton, who has received South African colors for cheffing and also took the title of South African Chef of the Year, 3 years consecutively was full of praise for our product, Drakensberger beef.
The day was ended with the hanging of a glass logo which has a proud position in the restaurant for all to see.
Thank you to Gert Du Preez for supplying the meat. Your product did us proud.
LONG LIVE THE PROFIT BREED LONG LIVE!!!!!

Neuman Newsletter - June 2012
Ons sal die 2011/12 seisoen onthou vir die hewige sneeustorms wat ons einde Augustus gehad het. Op die woonplaas was die sneeu op party plekke tot 1meter diep. Ons was letterlik vir drie dae ingesneeu sonder krag of telefoonlyne – afgesny van die res van die wêreld. In hierdie koue tyd was mens weereens dankbaar dat hier met Drakensbergers geboer word en glo nou meer in die bekende gesegde wat lui “Jou beste assuransie teen die winterkoue is geharde Drakensbergers”.
