All Cattle Sell in Catalog Order
Demand for the Certified Angus Beef® (CAB®) brand has never been stronger. CAB® sales have grown to an all-time
high of over 882 million pounds sold in 2014. With packers and feedlots looking to meet this demand, the future is bright
for cattlemen who have the genetics in their calf crop that can achieve high quality grades and the CAB® brand’s specifi-
cations.
Stucky Ranch has made it easy for you to identify the bulls in their offering that best target the CAB® brand. Each bull in
this year’s sale that meets or exceeds the EPD recommendations of the CAB® Best Practices Manual for Marbling and
$Grid ($G) is identified with the Targeting the Brand logo. For more information on the CAB® program, please visit
