A registered Angus bull does more to make your business better. A registered Angus bull is much more than another bull. He’s a risk reducer, a quality builder, and a product enhancer. With the world’s most comprehensive genetic evaluation system standing behind him, he has built-in predictability—and that reliability is the cornerstone of reducing risk. Genetic trends show his calves will be born easily, requiring less labor. They’ll grow rapidly and efficiently, and you can keep his daughters as replacements. When it’s time to sell his calves, they’ll command more than just buyer interest. They’ll bring more premiums and put more dollars in your pocket. Best of all, a registered Angus bull helps you raise much more than just cattle. He puts your herd on track to deliver the industry’s highestquality beef—the Certified Angus Beef® brand—for consumers. That’s the advantage of a registered Angus bull. Put one in your pasture today.

MARKETING PROGRAM • CUSTOM COLLECTION • INVITRO ORIGEN • SEMEN SALES ORIgen YOUR COMPLETE GENETIC SOURCE The ORIgen difference.. ORIgen was created by breeders, for breeders to give them a market for their genetics unlike any other system in the industry. The “BREEDER TO BREEDER” concept was built on the vision of bridging the gap between bull owners and the marketplace to give breeders direct access to the market and unlimited networking opportunities for their genetics among other breeders. This service connects bull owners to the beef industry where they can have a higher percentage of return and access to the largest semen sales network in the business while retaining control of their marketing strategy. ORIgen has a STATE-OF-THE ART CUSTOM SEMEN COLLECTION FACILITY that is designed for the ultimate care and handling of beef bulls.
