Larson’s Lost River Livestock Delivery and Trucking

Welcome to the 13th Annual Larson’s Lost River Livestock Annual Production Sale. It is a pleasure to be back in northern Minnesota to represent the Larson’s and their awesome sale offering. 2022 was our greatest year to date selling bulls to top seedstock producers in the breed and selling bulls to more states throughout the U.S. than any years in the past. The quality of LRL bulls is becoming one of the strongest in the Gelbvieh/Balancer breed.

The 2023 sale offers a wide range of genetics that continues to produce a stronger quality with more advanced data and predictability than previous sale offerings from Larson’s Lost River Livestock Production Sale. LRL continues to use top AI sires and an extensive embryo transfer program to produce a product at excels in all facets of the industry. As you study the bulls you will find these bulls represent calving ease, performance, high carcass values and eye appeal. I take the opportunity to get through the cow herd every year to see the dams and sisters to these bulls and females selling. The maternal instincts in this cow herd are amazing. The factories you find in the pastures here are truly amazing females with high volume, soundness and milk that converts to the calves.

The selection criteria is as strenuous as any in the country. Only 45% of the bulls born at LRL make the sale. Take time to read the selection process on page 4. The strategic plan to produce better quality in each next year is working here with the hard work, culling and planned breeding as you will see in the sale offering. When you purchase a bull or female from LRL, you are getting the program with a high quality product. Past sale offerings are working for breeders nationwide with excellent success. These bulls and females are bred to acclimate and work in many weather climates with very little maintenance. We are proud of the success breeders are having with the LRL product.

Feel free to call or text with for any updated information or an evaluation of any animals in the sale offering.

Sincerely,

Chris Mitchell MMS
