#TheRoundUp
The 2022-2023 Student Managed Farm Purebred Unit powered by New Holland, would like to welcome everyone to the 2023 Round Up sale on March 25th. The Round Up has grown to become the showcase for all of the beef and equine animal science students, as its an opportunity to market and exhibit top quality cattle and horses to the industry. There’s been a lot of excitement about this year’s sale from all members of the Purebred Unit, and we can’t wait to see you there!
The bull and heifer pens are full of depth and quality, and every animal offers aspects that can benefit any commercial or purebred herd. In terms of genetics that have been selected and used, we think the animals offer an opportunity to get your hands on some industry leading Angus genetics. The cattle have been on a very stable and effective ration that has left the cattle with an ideal amount of cover, while keeping them fresh and athletic. If you’re in the market for a heifer or power bull, there’s one in this offering for everyone.

If you’re interested in high-quality Angus genetics and are in the area, do not hesitate to call and arrange a time to tour the sale cattle. We’ll be more than willing to show you the cattle and their dams to allow your selection process to be more in-depth. Everyone is welcome anytime!
