Background

Panganayi Boran Stud is a livestock producing company specializing in cattle. It boasts of being run by a team of open-minded business professionals whose objectives are to achieve world-class cattle producing standards through adoption of appropriate, best in class methods in aspects of the business. The stud is owned by Mussolini and Kundai Ganyo. We are based at Panganayi Pakurima Farm located in Wedza. We got the farm in 2006 and we bought nine F1 Borans as well as other breeds of cattle,two years later we realised that the Borans were performing better than other breeds so we decided to purchase more of them. We bought 8 pedigrees from Rankin Beef in South Africa as well as F1s, F2s and a few other pedigrees from Forrester Estate.

In 2012 we bought the highest priced Boran bull at the National bull sell and the bull was priced at $7500 and had been bred by Mark Hook a Boran breeder HHB09/78.In this same year we also joined the Zimbabwe Boran Society. In 2013 we bought some more bulls from Francois Smith of Fontein Boran in South Africa. In 2015 we bought pedigree heifers from MC Trust and Circle C. As of now our herd comprises of excellent pedigrees,F3, F2 and F1 but the journey still continues. All our animals are registered.
