Castle Nugent
Farms has been breeding Senepol since 1957 on our ranch on St.
Croix, the largest of the US Virgin Islands, a territory of the
U.S. At Castle Nugent, genetics and free range have kept the breed's
qualities at their highest level through the years. Selection and improvement
are a constant active goal on our ranch on the East end of St. Croix,
(where climatic conditions are harsher than on the West end of the island)
to always reach for the top in fertility, performance and conformation.
