[QUOTE="bigbluegrass, post: 1563874, member: 15537"] I am going to ignore your bias toward angus for now and your ramblings about how great things were back in the day of dairies. You are about as bad as the locals you like to make fun of. I will agree that genetics can make a difference. So how do you get KY cattle producers to use the genetics to "make Kentucky Cattle Great again"? I don't think it is remotely realistic to expect most commercial cattle producers to use AI, regardless of the state you are talking about. As I am sure you know, it takes a lot of time and effort. It isn't for everyone. You could do a poll on the board to find out how many commercial cattle producers use AI. I would expect it to be around maybe 10%, but it could be less. Based on what I have seen, that sure isn't a KY problem. In fact, I don't think most people would see that as a problem at all. There are plenty of live bulls with good genetics. You said you can't sell bulls in your county. Why is that? Have you identified what you are doing wrong? Have you identified why the local cattle producers are buying the "wrong" genetics from someone else? [/QUOTE]
