[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 95752, member: 968"] Well, Guest 25, PM me & I posted there, but I went back & copied it: Actually, this is a printed promo flyer by American Simmental Assn. I have visited the MARC site, and cannot make heads or tails out of their info. All the "placings" is documented as Data from MARC Report 22. I called ASA and asked for a copy but have not received it as yet. But, in this world of lawsuits, I can bet the info is accurate. It also shows that Simmental is 2nd in Pounds of Retail Product, Feed Eff by Days, % Pregnant & Maternal Wean Weight. Angus is 2nd in % Choice, Feed Eff by Wt Gain, Feed Eff by Retail Product, Feed Eff by Days, % Puberty, and Maternal Calving Ease. So out of 15 catagories, Simmental & Angus stand 1st or 2nd - except 1 catagory - % Pregnancy - Simm is 2nd & Angus is 3rd. I wanted a copy of the report, to see what the other breeds were that beat us in the few catagories. But, Simmental and Angus compliment each other extremely well. We've know that for 30 years, and now there is getting more & more proof saying it. In the purebred world, 1/2 Blood Simmental/Angus, registered out of top bloodlines are bringging more $$$ than some of the purebreds. Real hot item. Lots of top Angus breeders, like Rally Farm (angus) is breeding to Simmental for the 1/2 bloods. They are Registered with the Amer Simm Assn. as 1/2 blood. I know about Rally because they are using my bull's semen. Will breed all their cows that are not settled as of last week. Looking for the "club calf" market. Big "feather" in our hat for them to use our bull - and I told them that. :D [/QUOTE]
