[QUOTE="smnherf, post: 368089, member: 3235"] Even though the housewife would glady pick select over choice in many cases, convincing the meat department manager, the meat distributor and even the packer that Hereford select eats as well as CAB or other choice products is challenging. The whole industry has been beating the USDA Choice drum for so long that it is hard to change. That is absolutely right. The baldy steer is the most marketable animal in the industry right now. He is elgible for more branded beef program premiums than any other animal you can produce and the best thing is that the heifer makes the best cow in the industry too. I hope you are kidding, because as things are right now, we are so far back in second that CAB can't even see our dust! From your other posts if I remember right you are trying to break into the Hereford bull market. If things stay as they are, I wish you good luck. Unless there is more demand for the beef, your bull market is extremely limited and those people who are currently raising Hereford bulls can more than satisfy the current demand. I am not saying that we have to overtake CAB, but we HAVE to do a lot better than we are now. Brian [/QUOTE]
