Regis Pilote

Regis Pilote, a Wagyu cattle breeder in Metabetchouan, Quebec, in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region near Quebec City, maintains healthy herds. With over ten years of experience and membership in national cattle associations, the operation follows recommended herd health screening, genetic evaluations, and traceable feeding protocols. Young calves spend time with handlers from birth, building trust and making the herd easy to manage during all stages of growth.

All cattle graze on rotational pastures and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments before moving to sheltered barns during winter months. Winter feeding includes locally sourced forage and a balanced grain ration tailored to support steady growth. Local restaurateurs appreciate the consistent quality of their beef and the transparency of farm practices. The farm’s proximity to Lake Saint-Jean ensures access to fertile soil and clean water that nourish the pastures throughout the year.
