Process

Given the challenges of rising input costs for ourselves and our customers, and with our interest in pursuing a sustainable balance between cattle operations and property resource management, we will continue to set a high standard for our genetic selection criteria. Paramount to that selection is breeding stock that produces superior carcass qualities and growth while retaining efficiency and herd health. Heifer selection is a rigorous process with equally strict parameters for both genotypic/phenotypic attributes, performance, and health.

In partnership with the exacting genotypic standards we set for our herd, we also scrutinize and sift for phenotypic traits. Structural soundness has as much importance in our animal selection and breeding program as does the EPD statistics.

  1. Where Food Comes From - Care Certified

  2. Certified Angus Beef

  3. Non-Hormone Treated Cattle

  4. USDA Age & Source Verified

  5. USDA Verified Natural
