From AngusLink growth to the new Angus.org, the 2023-24 fiscal year was full of milestones for the American Angus Association. 

“We might be living in the best of times in this breed for our position industry wide, and that to me is actually a bigger challenge than maybe what we’ve actually ever seen before because I don’t believe in complacency,” says Darrell Stevenson, White Sulphur Springs, Mont.  

In this AJ Daily audio feature, we bring you a Q & A with Stevenson, who just began his term as treasurer of the Association.

Those who came before set the American Angus Association up to be in a strong financial position today, says Jim Brinkley, Milan, Mo., who just wrapped up his year as treasurer. 

“I don't think previous boards and staff have gotten enough credit for the path they’ve laid out for membership today,” he says. “I mean, to have that portfolio to leverage to work for membership, it’s been incredible.” 

To hear Brinkley, the recently elected vice chairman of the Board, recap the 2023-24 fiscal year, listen to this full interview.

The Angus breed’s diversity is its strength and its challenge — how the breed supports producers across the United States is its measure of success.  

Jonathan Perry, newly elected president and chairman of the American Angus Association Board of Directors says they will continue a focus on the strengths of the Angus cow and giving breeders tools to work in all diverse systems.  

“That’s one of the things that we've really put a lot of emphasis on from new EPD (expected progeny difference) developments, new phenotype collections, things that we can do to try to bring more emphasis to longevity, stayability, the function of the cow,” Perry says. “No matter where we go end-target wise, we’ve got to continue to come back to home base of what got us there.” 

To hear why Perry is so optimistic about the future of the breed, listen to the full interview.
