Select Sires Angus Bulls Top New Ranking
PLAIN CITY, Ohio, March 9, 2004
— Select’s Angus lineup excels in the American Angus Association’s new index, Beef Value ($B). This follows the release of spring 2004 data from the American Angus Association, St. Joseph, Mo. The $B index represents the expected average dollar per head difference in progeny post-weaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires.
"Commercial Angus breeders have trusted that Select’s lineup will achieve their goals and the Beef Value index is one more way they see consistent results," says Roy Wallace, Vice President, Beef Department, Select Sires. "Plus, with 11 proven bulls ranking in the top 5 percent of the breed, Select’s advantage is clearly shown."
No. 1 for Beef Value at Select Sires is 7AN209 PINNACLE ($58.96 $B), a 7AN144 PRECISION son that excels for Intramuscular Fat (IMF), muscle, yield and value. He ranks in the top 10 percent of the breed for growth and his daughters have ample rib, good udders and super dispositions. PINNACLE gives herds the best of both worlds - productive females with an infusion of superior carcass traits and steers that excel for added value.
Another PRECISION son, 7AN221 RETAIL PRODUCT ($52.75 $B) sires balanced performance cattle that go to the rail and excel for both grade and yield. His calves are moderate in size, thick and dense. RETAIL PRODUCT’s daughters are consistently sleek fronted, big ribbed young cows with very good udders.
Earning impressive stats for both growth and carcass, 7AN222 PREDESTINED ($52.16 $B) is siring powerful cattle that stand out in any herd. He ranks in the top 15 percent for weaning weight (WW) and he shines for IMF and Ribeye Area (REA). His calves are easy to appreciate for their style, strength and they excel for thickness and length. PREDESTINED will inject tremendous added value into a calf crop in just one generation.
