The Piedmontese Association of the United States offers many services for those interested in working with the Piedmontese breed. We have several different membership options to better serve and fit the needs of our members and associates. We provide cattle registration services to both members and non-members of the association, and register Fullblood, Purebred and percentage cattle.

We also produce and distribute publications focusing on the Piedmontese breed and our organization. Our newsletter contains up to date information on the current happenings within PAUS, articles, advertising, and information important to breeders. We also produce a full-color brochure complete with information and photos of the Piedmontese breed; we also have three video tapes containing even more information that will demonstrate why Piedmontese is the leader in lean, tender, delicious beef.
