For 2021-22 we foresee a stable number of cows and a slightly reduced calf crop due to high cow slaughter in 2018-19 and an ongoing drought this spring. Skyrocketed Chinese demand increased cow slaughter but, on the other hand, high prices for feeder cattle encourages producers to retain and rebuild cow herds. • Steers are 14% of total bovine herd, heifers are 14%, calves 27%, cows 42% and bulls 2%. • The most widespread cattle breeds are Aberdeen Angus and Hereford at the Pampas, and Brangus and Braford at the northern sub-tropical areas.

  • Argentina Livestock and Products Semi-Annual
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 3/27/2019 GAIN Report Number: Argentina Livestock and Products Semi-annual Approved By: M. Melinda Meador Prepared By: Kenneth Joseph Report Highlights: Argentina’s herd size, slaughter and stock numbers remain unchanged from 2018. Argentine beef exports for 2019 are forecast to rise by 15 percent to a ten-year high of 585,000 tons carcass weight equivalent. China accounts for more than half of total exports with exports to the US of premium chilled and grass-fed beef cuts, although minimal under newly gained market access, could reach 10,000-15,000 tons in 2019. Cattle: Argentina’s cattle herd size is expected to continue unchanged from 2018 at 53.8 million head. As cow-calf and feedlot operations show little growth, stocks remain stable. 1.1 million head of cattle are expected to be lost in 2019, 100,000 head lower than in 2018 due to excellent weather and pasture conditions. This reduction in the loss rate indicates a return to normal conditions as excessive flooding and drought conditions during the past three years increased cattle losses in different parts of the country. The number of breeding female cattle in 2019 is estimated at 23.6 million head. This value is slightly lower than in 2018 when cow slaughter spiked in response to higher prices from China. In addition, feedlots continue to struggle with rising feed costs and falling calf prices, and with the addition of weather problems in some areas, calf production in 2019 is expected to fall by 300,000 head.

  • A La Carte Menu Our Story
    A LA CARTE MENU OUR STORY The Gaucho food and wine menus have a contemporary global influence, based strongly around modern Argentina. Our beef comes from Argentinian, premium Black-Angus cattle bred at hand selected farms, reared by our partners who we have worked with for many years. Grazing on seventeen different types of grass from the Pampas provinces - with everything they eat being 100% natural - our cows enjoy a lush, free-range lifestyle in an area famed for its fertile soil. Ever evolving, both our food and wine are authentic and diverse (the largest selection of Argentinian wines outside of the country, as well as the recent addition of some of the finest global wines the world has to offer) and our service, second to none. Our collection of restaurants in the UK has grown to twelve in London and four regional sites in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh. These restaurants continue to serve some of the finest beef in the world, now complemented by a broader food and wine offering in a contemporary setting, inspired by Modern Argentina and all of its global influences. An evolution in design is being introduced to showcase a more contemporary look and feel, reflecting the modern Gaucho and a more modern Argentina. Three new locations in the UK will also be launching soon, with a fully refurbished Charlotte Street opening in the coming months. We create experiences beyond dining, with a unique and educated style. The affordable side of impressive. SET LUNCH MENU 12–7PM Two courses £23.00 | three courses £26.00 STARTERS
