The breeding of livestock is in our blood. We take pride in producing the best livestock for our environment. Combing traits like doing ability on pasture or grain, temperament to maximise the ease in handling for man and beast, fertility with consistently high pregnancy rates, muscle pattern to supply high yielding carcases, all combine to meet the highest MSA standards.

The Carruthers Family first started embracing the paddock to plate methodology in the early nineties when Andrew’s father Don was one of the pioneers to deliver home bred and finished beef (‘Claremont Beef’) to the consumers door.
 
This laid the foundations for our practices today and over the years we have built upon these to secure the highly productive breeding line we have at present. The same passion and approach remains embedded in all processes of the production systems implemented today.

AD Commodities produces high quality, pure bred, Angus steers for the short fed domestic market and long fed feedlot market mainly for export. Our heifers are sought after both domestically and internationally, with regular live export consignments. We retain the first draft of heifers every year as the foundation of future breeding programs.
