Value of Pure-Bred Sire Show Value of Pure-Bred Sire
The United States Department of Agriculture reports results from ten years of beef cattle breeding at the Sal-a-Bar farms in Grain Valley Mo. Foundation stock of 200 red cows and various bulls, including roan Shorthorns, produced crosses that improved calf quality and market price. Steers sired by pure-bred bulls topped Kansas City sales sixteen of twenty times and sold about $2 per hundred pounds above average, with peaks near $9.95. The study concludes breeding is a dominant factor, with results enhancing with each cross up to a point and good feeding and management required for best outcomes.
