BRANGUS SECTION
can be used to maximize maternal heterosis, which is the increased performance of progeny due to use of a crossbred cow. Brangus-infl uenced cows provide improvements in
adaptability, fertility, maternal ability and longevity. Research suggests that Bos indicus genetics in your
herd will improve cow longevity, environmental adapt- ability, insect and disease tolerance, maternal ability, digestion of coarse forages, mineral conservation, maternal calving ease, energetic effi ciency, and levels of heterosis. Florida research, using 20 years of data on 1,367
head of animals, indicated that straight-bred Angus and Brahman cattle produced the lowest total animal value, whereas 1/4 Brahman crosses, Brangus, and 1/2 Brahman crosses netted the highest total animal value. Dr. Joe Paschal and his associates reported that Brangus calves had a higher average daily gain, as well as higher net return when compared to non-Brahman, 1/4 Brahman and 1/2 Brahman calves. Brangus is the reliable beef breed with more than 60
years of planned crossbreeding where all of the hard work has been done for you. Brangus breeders have built the perfect replacement

female, one that is adaptable in any environment. The Brangus female excels in effi ciency of weaned
calf production, and in milk production under limited feed inputs and other environmental constraints. Her Bos indicus heritage gives her built-in calving ease, fer- tility and longevity — all in a polled, moderate framed, solid-colored phenotypic package. Brangus breeders have built the ideal herd sire that fi ts the needs of commercial cattlemen. Brangus bulls
