The Leachman Spring Sale 2022

Is She a Good Cow?

A 1,250 lb. Top 1% $Ranch five-year-old Stabilizer cow calved at 23 months, has bred and calved in the

first cycle four times with a 365 day calving interval, and has weaned an average of 698 lbs. per calf.

Most profit minded ranchers increasingly see the key to profitability as controlling costs while still increasing performance. For them, the key cow herd profitability factors are:

• Moderating feed intake so you can run more cows on the same land. • Improving longevity to reduce the costs of turnover and depreciation. • Increasing fertility so that more cows bring in a calf every year. • Adding hybrid vigor to increase pounds weaned per cow exposed

Buying high growth, high carcass, purebred bulls that have been selected for maximum output will not build a low cost, high profit cowherd. • Leachman’s $Ranch index will move your herd in the right direction on all of these factors. • The $Profit index will help you improve your cows and make steers that earn premiums. • Using Leachman Stabilizers is the simplest crossbreeding strategy you can use: Retain 75% of the original F1 Hybrid vigor, while creating a uniform calf crop.
