CATTLE

A victorious genetic selection

Our purpose is clear

To make the expression “second-grade beef” disappear.

Those who produce quality beef make the entire animal first-class.

More meat, faster and of better quality

We use carcass ultrasound because it allows early identification of animals with greater ribeye area, sexual precocity, and marbling.

Today, 45% of our herd is marbled, with excellent fat cover and carcass conformation.

We monitor certain animals between the wet and dry seasons, observing their production stability.

We select those that do not show the “accordion effect,” but instead produce consistently and evenly.

The results are visible: continuous increases in weaning weight, more uniform lots, and standardized carcasses.

The BIA software confirms these data with an error margin below 5%, ensuring confidence for both producer and buyer.

For buyers, we have animals for all profiles — those from our “More Meat, Faster and Better Quality” project, with more meat, strong fat cover, and marbling; and others that serve as the foundation for commodity beef herds — animals with large ribeye areas, thick musculature, and exceptional deboning yield.

We also offer semen and embryos from donor females and sires for premium beef production.

Why choose Balsas-Onda Verde

Because here you’ll find improving genetics backed by over 120 years of selection.

History, hardiness, maternal ability, weaning weight, sustainability, and beef quality.

You’re not buying a “maybe” — you’re buying a certainty.

Now in the fourth generation, we carry the responsibility to honor our ancestors.

“What isn’t good enough for us, isn’t good enough for you.”

The cattle of the future is already here

The 4 Ps — Pasture, Performance, Ring Show (Pista), and Plate

Beyond heritage, we think of the future.

The cattle of the future are already on the pastures of Fazenda Balsas-Onda Verde.

We showcase our quality in the official show rings of ExpoZebu, in the PNAT/ExpoGenética feed efficiency tests, at Feicorte-SP, proving that Tabapuã cattle marble — and at the tasting table, proving they deliver juiciness, tenderness, and an unmatched terroir.

Tabapuã led the ABCZ tenderness tests, proving that the marbled Zebu is the cattle of the future: docile, productive, and profitable.

Who would have thought?

A marbled Zebu!

The past is behind us.

The future is irreversible. And our eyes are set upon it.
