Animals in our farm
In PD Bohdanovce we specialize in Charolais beef cattle breed. Within the overall number of 250 heads our herd includes 150 dairy cows, 46 young bulls under 6 months of age, 38 young heifers under 6 months of age and 3 breeding bulls. After the separation from the dams, the heifers are kept with the herd to balance out the numbers in the productivity cycle. The cattle are kept predominantly on pasture, only in winter season they are kept indoors.
BEEF PROCESSING PLANT
RD Bohdanovce uses a slaughterhouse of a sister company in PD Čečejovce, which has been operating its own slaughterhouse since 2012 we have been operating a beef processing plant where our cattle is downed under constant veterinary supervision. All the three main parts of the plant – the slaughter hall, the cutting room and the chilling room have been completely modernized.
MODERNIZATION
The facilities and machinery of PD Bohdanovce are being gradually modernized. We are planning to rebuild the beef cattle stall and the young cattle breeding stall.
