A registered Angus bull is much more than just another bull.


He’s a risk reducer, a quality builder, and a product enhancer.


With the world’s most comprehensive genetic-evaluation system standing behind him, he has built-in predictability — and that reliability is the cornerstone of reducing risk.


Genetic trends show his calves will be born easily, requiring less labor. They’ll grow rapidly and efficiently, and you can keep his daughters as replacements.


When it’s time to sell his calves, they’ll command more than just buyer interest. They’ll bring more premiums and put more dollars in your pocket.


Best of all, a registered Angus bull helps you raise much more than just cattle. He puts your herd on track to deliver the industry’s highest-quality beef — the Certified Angus Beef ®


brand — for consumers.


That’s the advantage of a registered Angus bull. Put one in your pasture today.
