Welcome...
It is our pleasure to invite you to the 9th Annual EXTRA EFFORT Fall Sale at the Fred and Eudell Smith Cattle Center in Clayton, NC. The auction will take place on Saturday, October 18th beginning at 12:00. We encourage you to join us at the ranch on Friday night for an evening filled with pre- sale activities. The Kiddie Cattle Camp begins at 5:30 for all of our young cattle enthusiasts in the family. Starting at 6:30 is an educational program from Dr. Jamie Courter, from right here in Henderson, NC. After graduating from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a doctoral degree in Animal Breeding and Genetics, she spent five years working for Neogen Genomics and in 2023 she became the Beef Genetics Extension Specialist for the University of Missouri. Hear her speak about her passion to help beef producers better understand the uses and benefits of genomic technologies on their herds. We will also hear from Marty Ropp, founder and CEO of Allied Genetic Resources. Our partnership with Allied has played a pivotal role in our quest to breed EVERGREEN Cattle. Hear Marty speak about this relationship and how Allied helps beef producers all across the country. The genetic progress on display in this year’s sale is the result of years of strategic selection, leading genetics, and advanced technologies like Embryo Transfers and RightChoice. This is what we refer to as STRATEGIC COMPOUNDING—incremental gains built on a series of many good decisions. This helps us to achieve our goal of producing EVERGREEN CATTLE : proven, climate-adapted genetics that add lasting value through balanced excellence in calving ease, maternal traits, growth, carcass quality, and phenotype, not sacrificing any one trait for another. One of our core values at this ranch is family, and that extends to our cattle customers. We are forever grateful for the opportunity to serve you and we feel as though when you purchase genetics from us, we become partners. Your herd’s genetics are a huge investment and we stand by every animal that we sell.
The EVERGREEN breeding philosophy would not be achievable without our commitment to embryo transfers. 56% of the bulls in this catalog are embryo calves, and we believe that this is one of the most consistently impressive and uniform calf-crop that we have ever produced, thanks largely to the large contemporary groups of several of our best flushes.
We sincerely thank you for your interest in FSCR Genetics and we look forward to seeing you on sale day.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23-24
