[QUOTE="andybob, post: 888475, member: 2703"] Another option for the hot drought prone states are any Sanga breed or composites, while relatively new to the USA they are more common in south American countries and growing in popularity, many herd in Australia have crossed with mainly Tuli to improve foraging, heat tolerance and fertility. Bonsmara are a good composite, and have also been used in Africa to moderate some of the percieved problems in the Santa Gertrudis such as frame size and temperament, in the USA they have a premium buy back policy which depending on your viewpoint is an advantage for guarenteed market, or not if you are more independent by nature. Tuli and Mashona cross females are available with purebreds becomming more available, semen and some embryos are available, one large ranch in Hawaii is introducing Tuli after seeing the crosses during the drought in Australia, various Brahman/Sanga crosses have become popular in severe drought environments to take advantage of the Taurus/Indicus heterosis without compromising on heat tolerance, the Veldmaster is a growing composite, and large scale crossing of Brazu Indus to Tuli in Mexico has improved fertility and beef quality.
