HOW MUCH IS A BULL WORTH
We know that more pounds pay more dollars. Cattle Fax research shows that the most profitable producers in the US pay more for their bulls than other producers do. The most profitable producers know that a cheap, low quality bull can be your most costly mistake. Remember a bull’s genetics makes up half the entire calf crop. Buying a good bull yields excellent returns on your investment.
Let’s use EPDs and do a little “Cowboy Math” to figure out how much a superior bull is worth if you sell your calves at weaning:
(Bull A’s WWt EPD 60) minus (Bull B’s WWt EPD 50) =
10 pounds more WW from Bull A
X25 Number of calves per breeding season
250 Extra pounds of calf weaned per season from Bull A
X5 Average number of years useful life per bull
1250 Total pounds increase during the life of the bulls
X $3.50 Price per pound at Weaning
$4,375 more value in bull A’s calves vs. bull B’s calves during their lifetime just due to 10 pounds of weaning Weight EPD.*
*If you use your bulls in both fall and spring then he is worth $8,750 more. Just adapt the numbers to fit your situation and see how much more our bulls are worth to you. With these conditions, for every 10 pound advantage in Weaning WT. EPD, a bull returns to you $8750. Therefore, if Bull A is 30 pounds heavier than bull b for Weaning Wt EPD, then he will return to you an additional $26,250 over his lifetime.
