EPISODE 161 DETAILSTo get our cow herd as efficient as possible, one has to take the guesswork out of the equation. This can be tough no matter what we do because we are dealing with mother nature. But we CAN use mother nature and science to find the perfect genetic match for our cows. The seedstock industry has been using these tools for the past several years and they are available for anyone in the commercial business to use. No more wasted matings, disappointments and not understanding why we had all the variation come weaning time. Let’s get prescribed matings and add uniformity to our calf crop. Marty Ropp with Allied Genetic Resources joins us today for a very in depth conversation. It is complex but it does not have to be confusing and all these wonderful tools are readily available at our fingertips. We have the latest market recaps from Kirk Donsbach with Stone X Financial, Inc. Plus the news and information you have come to rely on each and every week! As always Tigger & BEC and the Ranch It Up crew dive into the latest agriculture news, rodeo action not to miss, and cover the cattle markets.
ALLIED GENETIC RESOURCESThe Allied approach combines consistent genetic value improvement with services to reward producers for making better cattle. Allied services are designed primarily for commercial customer success with practical genetic solutions applied to your specific production system needs.
The seedstock industry’s only purpose is to drive genetic change in the commercial cattle industry by breeding and developing bulls with balanced traits and bred-in profit drivers that add value at the ranch and beyond. Their efforts and dedication are vital to an industry challenged with producing a product that must excel in varying environments, with differing management practices, balanced with maternal and terminal requirements, all while performing in the feedlot and consistently delivering an enjoyable eating experience for the consumer. Not an easy job to say the least.
You’ve worked for years, in some cases for generations, at constant genetic improvement. It would be hard to measure the time and money you’ve invested in genetics to ensure your commercial customers can confidently buy the bulls you produce each year. But that alone is not enough to differentiate you from your competition. In today’s ever-increasingly competitive seedstock business, you’ve got to offer customer service after the sale, including marketing options for your bull customers to capture the value they’ve invested in from your program. That’s where Allied can deliver solutions…
Allied values its relationship with Superior Livestock Auction, providing its bull customers with greater access to the nation’s largest buyer base and the risk management of forward contracting. Clint Berry has worked with buyers and sellers of high-quality cattle for more than a decade, building a solid reputation with ranchers and feeders. Along with his growing team of Superior Livestock reps, strategically distributed throughout cattle country, Clint works daily in the market to build the supply and the demand for load lots of cattle, with added value options that deliver profit throughout each segment of the industry.
