Cattle
KLPK has been involved in the livestock business since 1995. Activities such as cattle and buffalo feedlots, integrated free grazing in oil palm plantation and breeding of new cross breed are carried out at our operation centre in Ladang Laka Temin, Bukit Kayu Hitam and Ladang Aman Jaya, Sungai Petani. Among the livestock that are reared and bred here are:
Brahman Breed
This type of breed is well known among the buyers especially butchers. The general features of Brahman breed are:
• Body size (medium to large)
• Weight can reach up to 800 kg
• Colour (white, grey or mixture/combination of colours)
• Long ears with a hump on the back of the body
• With or without horns
Kedah-Kelantan (KK) Breed
This type of breed is generally favoured because it is smaller in stature and the price is cheaper. Sales are usually brisk during the Aqiqah, Qurban season and for feasts. The specification of Kedah-Kelantan breed is as follows:
• Body size (small to medium)
• Average weight (180 to 350 kg)
• Colour (reddish brown, black or a combination of these colours with a hump on its back)
• Often cross-bred with Brahman species
• Highly resistant towards disease and climate
