Beatrice I am happy that you are living in Azores – Portugal, and to let you know that we breed Aberdeen-Angus and that the Herd Book and Breeder’s Association is located in the island of Terceira – Azores. We have breeders on mainland (one is a swiss breeder) and Azores: S. Miguel, Terceira, Pico, Faial and Graciosa. Check the website of the Association (www.aberdeen-angus.pt) and/or the Herd Book (www.faa.pt) and feel free to make use of the contacts.

Take this opportunity, from Nigel’s article to acknowledge the AACS for it support and help from the beginning of the enterprise to have the Aberdeen-Angus breed implemented in Portugal. My special thanks to the former Breed Secretary, Bob Anderson, Nigel Hammill and Chief Executive, Ron McHattie. All past AACS Presidents for the trust and staff for continuous helping hand. Finally the chance to have met outstanding breeders and people linked to this great breed!
Thank you!!
