BEEFMASTER Semen & Embryo Directory Simply More Efficient. Simply More Profit.

Beefmaster Breeders Breeders United United Beefmaster www.beefmasters.org

Dear International Beefmaster Enthusiast, Welcome to the 2013 Edition of the BBU International Semen & Embryo Directory. Tom Lasater, founder of the Beefmaster breed, used Hereford, Shorthorn and Brahman cattle to form the perfect three-way cross that was superior to other cattle. Beefmaster cattle, recognized as a breed by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1954, were selected following Lasater’s ‘Six Essentials’. The ‘Six Essentials’ consist of disposition, fertility, weight, conformation, milk production and hardiness. Beefmaster breeders continue to strive for the Standard of Excellence by using the ‘Six Essentials’.

BBU offers many member services and programs breeders can take advantage of to enhance their Beefmaster program. BBU offers a special reduced membership fee and registration fee for international breeders. Additionally, BBU has an upgrading program and E6 commercial female program that boosts the marketability of Beefmaster genetics that are enhanced with reproductive attributes that are built in when following the ‘Six Essentials’ embraced by Tom Lasater.

Please use this document to make sound Beefmaster service sire selections for your future breeding decisions. As you will see, the directory provides important performance data and/ or Expected Progeny Differences on each bull. This will allow you to make balanced breeding decisions by including performance traits such as birth weight, weaning weight, yearling weight, or milk as well as reproductive decisions using total maternal and scrotal circumference information. Additionally, EPD’s exist for carcass traits such as fat thickness, ribeye area and marbling.

Please accept this invitation to incorporate Beefmaster genetics into your current program.

Again, thanks for your interest in BBU and Beefmaster cattle. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions.

Sincerely,

Tommy Perkins, Ph.D., PAS Executive Vice President
