Decades with the Nightingale Influence
1994 Harley Farms visited the Royal Show and saw Youngdale Hogan. Allan and Rose Harley are specialist beef from grass producers with 600 cows on Sailsbury Plains using Charolais bulls whose progeny were renowned at their local markets. January 1995 they bought 3 Nightingale bulls (25 to date) and over the next few years made comparisons between the Angus and Charolais progeny. As the saying goes “the rest is history”. All the Angus females were kept as replacements so the herd is now nearly pure Angus and organic. A consignment of 17 steers in July 2013 graded U and R’s at +400kgdw to APB to average £2087 AND ALL OFF GRASS.
