•Statistics are from fall 2012 sales with more than 10 bulls and spring 2013 bull sales •No U.S. bull sales are included in the chart. •The sales with fall long‐yearlings were treated as two year old bulls. It is the breeders’ responsibility to submit a sale summary to the Charolais Banner office (by fax, email or phone) to ensure that their sale is included in the chart and further statistics. Unless the Charolais Banner office receives a report, no information will be shown for that sale.
