Beef Record Service
BRS provides a system for commercial producers to keep performance records on their
animals, regardless of breed composition. These records can help producers
make selection decisions on their cowherd, while supplying information to help market
the calf progeny as steers and replacement heifers. Producers can submit information
on their cowherd, including sire information, breeding records, calving and weaning
data, and any additional performance or carcass data collected on their calves. This
data can be submitted, viewed, and sorted via your computer on this BRS Online site,
or can also be submitted and returned on paper forms, printable from this site, or
available from the Commmercial Programs Department at the AAA.
The BRS program provides a tool for serious producers who wish to link the end
product to the producing factory by identifying genetics that work in their operation.
Bull Listing Service
The Bull Listing Service allows Angus breeders to list registered Angus bulls for sale
on the AAA Internet site, www.angus.org. The listing
is for a 90-day period, and is searchable by location, as well as sire groups or EPD
specifications. Interested bull buyers can access this service to find specification-based
genetics to improve their cowherd, with the timesaving assistance of the Internet.
