FOCUSING ON traits THAT enhance YOUR PROFITABILITY
SEMEN GUIDE
SEMEN GUIDE
Since 1961.
One of our favorite projects this year is the Semen Guide. It offers a glimpse into the future of the young bulls we have identified as the next great ones, while also reflecting on the herd sires that have brought us to where we are today. It is essential for us to continue evolving with the industry and meeting the growing demands of consumers. We believe that the genetic value of a bull is vital. We would like to thank everyone for placing their trust in our program. Remember, we are here to serve you, so please don’t hesitate to call us with any questions!

Record prices OR Record profits
We’re in a pretty amazing time for the cattle industry right now, with slaughter cattle of all types hitting record prices. It looks like we won’t see a slowdown anytime soon, mainly because the number of cows in the herd is steadily decreasing.
When business is booming, it’s easy to drop the ball on efficiency, especially when it comes to genetics and resources. As producers, we really need to keep a few key things in mind. Costs for feed, open cows, labor, land, and equipment can add up, so staying efficient is super important.
We pick bulls that are physically sound and look good, making sure they can really perform out there in the real world. Even though we’re a seedstock provider, we treat our cattle just like most commercial operations do. We care more about breeding value than just feeding value for our bulls and heifers.
Thanks for sticking with us and trusting us as your genetic supplier. We’re committed to making our cattle better for you. If you’re not moving forward, you’re going backward, right? We truly value the beef industry and want to make a lasting impact, not just within the Simmental breed, but in the beef world as a whole. Let’s keep pushing to improve!
