The Bosa herd was established in 1981 with 18 Ridgeway cows. Our present 90 cow herd is managed with commercial requirements in mind. We are committed to maintaining feminine, milky cows with high fertility, vital for batch calving in Spring and Autumn and to breeding Herefords free of waste, with dense muscling plus well developed hind quarters.

The female lines were increased by the purchase of the Reydon herd in November 2003 (from John Little of Essex) 85 head of well bred Polled Herefords.

We have always bought the very best stock bulls available. Our latest have been purchased from Northern Ireland.

During the winter months the herd is housed in large airy buildings and feed hay, straw, potatoes, and apple pomice. The young stock are fed home grown cereals and beans. During the summer the herd graze on the river meadows, beneath the apple trees orchards and surrounding meadows.

The family is helped by Matt Gray, our only employee
