[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6199"] Over 60% of the cowherds in the US have some Angus influence, so Angus would probably work for you. But there are a lot of changes going on in the cattle market today, COOL, branded beef programs, alliances... You'd probably do well to wait until you're closer to retiring and look at your options then. One thing I would suggest is to learn about EPDs. Almost all breeds have them today. Here's a link to the Angus version of what they are and how to use them. Good luck... <A HREF="http://www.angus.org/pubs/bullbuy.htm" TARGET="_blank">http://www.angus.org/pubs/bullbuy.htm</A> > Frankie: > Thanks for your imput.
