72. Breeding Highly Resilient Nguni Cattle in Botswana | Dirk Luus

Regenerative Health with Max Gulhane, MD

In this interview we discuss Dirks's discovery of Nguni after failed attempts with Bonsmara cattle, amazing attributes of Nguni in harsh Botswanan conditions including longevity, fertility, parasite resistance, failings of commodity beef market, regenerative grazing practices to improve the landscape, his long term vision for the preservation of Nguni and much, much more.
Dirk Luus is an expert Nguni cattle breeder operating KwaMakhatini Nguni Stud in Ghanzi, Botswana. He brought a pureblooded herd of Makhitini ecotype Nguni cattle from Eastern Freestate in South Africa to the dry, arid and predator-infested area of, Botswana and is breeding for original traits of adaptability and lack of need for human intervention.
