Sparta Marquard (Cattle Feeding operation & Mixed Farming) . The Sparta Feedlot is located in the Marquard district of the Free State. Cattle are sourced through cattle saleyards across South Africa and Namibia or bought from individual breeder farmers. Every load of entry cattle is unique, requiring special attention in monitoring health and nutrition. We insure the highest quality of care and comfort to cattle to minimise health problems. Upon cattle arrival they are fed high quality lucerne hay, starter ration with access to high volumes of clean fresh water. The daily feed ration manufacturing and delivery requirement ranges from 550 to 650 tonnes per day...

The locations of the Beefmaster cattle and lamb feedlots have been specially chosen with strict geographical considerations in mind. Situated near the town of Christiana in the North West Province of South Africa, our two separate feedlots - one for cattle and one for lamb - are in the heart of South Africa's cattle country. Good overall seasonal temperatures and ample rainfall make this an ideal area to raise the top class animals we strive for. The Vel River is also close by and this means a plentiful and regular supply of water. Cattle and lamb are sourced throughout southern Africa. Upon arrival each animal is individually assessed to determine the optimum regimen required to bring it up to Beefmaster standards. One of the most important factors with new arrivals is to reduce stress levels as far as possible.
