Tuli Bull

The Tuli is a pure African Sanga breed classified as Bos Taurus. Researchers in Texas, Nebraske, Florida, New Mexico and Georgia first introduced Tuli in an effort to find a breed that was comparable to the Brahman in characteristics such as heat tolerance, parasite resistance and foraging ability. What they discovered far exceeded their expectations. Not only did the Tuli breed match the environmental characteristics of Brahman, their carcass quality, disposition, calving eases, vigor and fertility were far superior to those of Bos Inducus breeds and crosses.

Dr. Bill Holloway of Texas A&M University stated it best when referring to his research conclusions: "The most significant results are the pounds of calf weaned per pound of cow exposed. The Tuli-crossed calveds weaned 75% more pound of calf per cow exposed that Brahman: 53% more than Angus and 21% more than Senepole. This points to the efficiency, productivity, and adaptability of the Tuli. If you are running cattle in a hostile environment, with limited feed resources," added Dr. Holloway, "this study is very significant. For producers seeking optimum production, the Tuli offers tremendous advantages."

Advantages of the Tuli breed

1. Cross with Brahman to upgrade meat quality, calving ease, early maturity, docility, and increase pound of calf weaned per pound of cow exposed without losing either heat or insect tolerance.

2. Cross with the English and Continental breeds to increase heat and insect tolerance, cutability, yield grade, and meat quality.
