Guarantee & Insurance

Breeding Season Guarantee

All bulls have been scrotal measured, and fertility tested prior to the sale by Powerline Genetics’ veterinarian and sell with BSE documentation and are guaranteed breeders at time of sale. The guarantee becomes void if the bull suffers from an injury or disease after leaving Powerline’s possession or by the negligence or willful misconduct of the buyer. In the event that a bull fails a subsequent semen test after purchase and prior to turnout, it is the buyer’s responsibility to contact Powerline or a Powerline representative immediately so that the situation can be remedied. Powerline then has the right to re-test the bull. If at that time, it is determined that the bull is unable to breed cows, the seller at their discretion, will issue credit for another sale, or replace the animal with another of equal value in full settlement and satisfaction. In no event shall the seller bear the responsibility of more than the purchase price.

Mortality and Loss of Use Coverage

Powerline Genetics, LLC has insurance available for the first breeding season for all bulls sold on the March 14th Arapahoe Sale. The coverage will provide traditional full Mortality coverage for death from all natural and accidental causes from the date of purchase through August 31st, 2023. Additionally, Loss of Use coverage is for in the event that a bull is unable to naturally cover cows due to injury. Examples of such injuries include stifle, broken leg, or broken tool. All injuries must be diagnosed by a veterinarian and immediately reported to Powerline Genetics, LLC. A claim shall occur if after fourteen continuous days following the date of diagnosis and first report, the bull cannot be returned to natural service. Loss of Use Claims will be settled at 80% of the purchase price until July 15th, 2023 and 60% of the purchase price from July 16th, 2023 through August 31st, 2023. Mortality and Loss of Use coverage is 5% of the purchase price due at settlement on sale day.

Salvage, if any belongs to Powerline Genetics LLC. Injured bulls shall be returned to Powerline Genetics Bull Development Center or to a Powerline Genetics Marketing Representative before settlement will be made. It is the full responsibility of the buyer to maintain the salvage value of the bull until returned to Powerline. Failure to do so results in negligence and voids this policy. Applicable settlement will be made after any salvage value has been determined. Settlement can be check or credit towards another Powerline Genetics Sale.

ABSOLUTELY NO INSURANCE CLAIM WILL BE PAID WITHOUT A PAID PREMIUM AND A VETERINARIAN CERTIFICATE.

IT IS HIGHLY ENCOURAGED THAT BULLS BEING LEFT AT THE YARD OR IN THE POSSESSION OF POWERLINE AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE SALE BE INSURED. POWERLINE DOES NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR INJURY, MORTALITY, OR INFERTILITY ONCE THE BULL IS SOLD.
