In the 60 years of artificial insemination work coupled with 30 years of embryo transfer technology, DeJong Ranch has se- lected key breed traits to strive to produce and improve. We aim to provide quality stock that possess the ability to perform and make a profit. Livestock that convert to yield marketable pounds and be superior in terms of carcass merit has been a key goal. We hope you see our progress through our animals’ data and phenotype. We will share the results of scan data on our website leading up to the sale as well as have it available on March 5th. We are confident in the ability of these individuals to offer something for each producer. We hope that you will find the benefit of growth, carcass merit, maternal endurance, and calving vigor within these lots. We were pleased to showcase the Reserve Champion pen of high percentage Maine-Anjou bulls at the National Western Stock Show this year. We enjoy getting to see our Maine-Anjou breeder friends on our trips and showcase our belief in what Maine-Anjou genetics can do on all sorts of cow-bases. The power and performance Maines can add to Angus based herds has proven to benefit offsprings ability to finish with a high grade and marbling. Females continue to wean large calves and offer longevity on sound feet and legs. We hope you can find some genetics within this offering to positively impact your own operation. It’s a great time to be a cattlemen! DeJong Ranch stands behind the genetics and strives to develop bulls and females that will positively impact specific breed development and the cattle industry in general. We are very thankful for the people we have been privileged to meet and work with in the past and look forward to meeting in the future. We are fortunate and indebted to previous generations and the grace of God to be involved in production agriculture and believe there is no better place to raise families.
