Mission Statement

The mission of the American Devon Cattle Association is to maintain an accurate Pure Devon Registry, to preserve the purity of the breed, to disseminate general information to the membership, and to recruit new members through general promotional activities. The purposes of this corporation shall be of a nonprofit purpose.
Our goal is to educate both newcomers and experienced cattle people alike and to illustrate the wonderful characteristics of the Devon breed. The Devon have a long history in the United States dating back to 1623. Devon are small framed, very docile animals. When you have docile cattle in your pen, you don’t need a lot of people to work them. This in turn cuts down on labor, which might have been needed on other breeds. One of the most important features is that Devon finish naturally on grass alone. They were not designed to be grain fed. The maternal instincts and fertility of the females are outstanding.
Our motto is “Supreme Beef on Grass.”
