The same Angus bull can sire steers that bring top prices and are outstanding performers in the feedlot, and heifers that make excellent mother cows. You can't go for extremes with this program, but then extremes are of much less value in a beef herd than people once thought. Good straightbred Angus heifers bring a premium. So instead of selling feeder heifers, that weigh a little less than steers and bring a few dollars less per hundred pounds, you develop a market for Angus replacement heifers and sell them for premium prices. It's done every day.
Life is much more simple.
You run one herd of cattle, not two or three as is required for a three-way crossbreeding system. And you raise your own replacement heifers instead of buying them from others, as is necessary with some crossbreeding plans. You work with only one breed of cattle instead of two or three. There is no one best way to operate a practical, profitable, commercial beef cattle operation. Whatever you decide, you can bet that Angus will fit into your program and help improve your profits.
