 The Manitoba Bull Test Station at Douglas, Manitoba is one of the largest bull testing stations on the map. 
Owned and operated by the Manitoba Beef Cattle Performance Association Inc., the test station is a non-profit organization that has been in operation for over 50 years. 
The goal of the Manitoba Beef Cattle Performance Association Inc. is to develop bulls and heifers to meet the needs of the ever changing cattle industry for both the purebred and commercial cattlemen. 

Visitors are welcome all year round to view the facilities and talk to the staff about programs available.  During the test season visitors can get statistics on the bulls and heifers on site and look at quality livestock.
