Quality not Quantity

Its not about the number or quantity of cattle you have its about the quality of cattle you have. With quality comes value and that is what puts money in your pocket. One factor that plays into the quality of cattle you have is genetics. There are a number of different ways to improve your genetics but one in particular is bull selection. Having a bull with high EPDs in weaning weights, yearling weights, and marbling traits can add weight and quality to your calves.You can then keep the heifers out of a certain bull you like or you can  Genemax all the heifers in your herd and keep only the one's with high performance traits.Order buyers also take notice to the quality of cattle you have and if your cattle continue to grade out high every year they will more than likely be a repeat customer. To close, I believe producers should all strive to have quality cattle not only to benefit themselves but to benefit the consumers as well.Quality Matters
