Why Wagyu meat is in the highest price range of beef?
- The breed is very costly. As pioneers in the Wagyu breed, it is currently only possible to reproduce the animals with embryo transfer. Only when the herd becomes to be the right size, the reproduction can continue "normal".
- Wagyu is a very slow-growing breed. Thus we need to feed more than twice as long until we reach the slaughter weight (more than three years).
- Because the Wagyu cattle need more energy in the feed, the feeding is much more intense.
- The meat maturation in the "Dry Aged" method takes three times longer than a standard meat maturation. There for it is also the lower weight percentage (less water in the meat, but this is to your advantage, because the meat "shrinks" less during the preparation). In addition, we need to cut away more meat with this kind of maturation and so the entire volume is again reduced.
