US beef producer Harris Ranch launches new product
 

Harris Ranch in Selma, California  has introduced its newest beef product in the market which is made primarily from Angus cattle that are free of growth-promoting hormones and antibiotics and fed with an all-vegetarian, corn-based diet.

Harris Ranch Premium Natural Angus Beef is offered in a variety of products, including fresh boxed beef, ground beef chubs and individual quick frozen burgers.

Through its integrated production system, Harris Ranch can source- and age-verify many of the Premium Natural Angus cattle through its Partnership for Quality program, in which an exclusive group of ranchers is subjected to audits and inspections. Each rancher is also required to maintain extensive records.

The new offering complements the company's line of products which is minimally processed, free of artificial ingredients and produced under its own control program that tests feed for pesticides and beef for antibiotics.
