Breed all the cows at one time
If your opinion of artificial insemination (AI) for the beef cattle herd is “been there, done that,” you may want to give it another look. New protocols and synchronization methods have eased the pressure. “There’s no question that fixed-time AI has gotten easier,” says Cliff Lamb, University of Florida animal scientist. That’s important for those who tried other AI programs in the past but did not find success, and also noteworthy for those who have never tried AI.
Plan beef herd genetics on consumer desires
Cattlemen have focused on quality from the beginning. Their success at delivering cattle that perform for the next owner kept them in business through market ups and downs. The approach seems to work, but can it keep working in an era of relatively higher beef prices? Mark McCully, vice president of production for the Certified Angus Beef ® brand (CAB®), challenged producers at the inaugural Canadian Beef Industry Conference to consider looking at their business in reverse.

Simply innovative
If there’s an easier way to home-grill the best steaks – and the search continues at Greeley’s Colorado Premium Beef, which brought Truly Simple™ to market this year – it’s hard to imagine.

That can be hard to explain, but it’s a key to understanding and improving the Certified Angus Beef ® (CAB®) brand, says Clint Walenciak, director of packing for the Ohio-based subsidiary of the American Angus Association.
