EPISODE 156 DETAILS

Not to mention the weekly market recap with Kirk Donsbach with Stone X Financial, Inc.  We have it all for you in this jam-packed episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show!  As always Tigger & BEC and the Ranch It Up crew dive into the latest agriculture news, rodeo action not to miss, and cover the cattle markets.

BICHLER SIMMENTALS

The Program:  The Bichler Simmentals ranch is owned and operated by Doug and Maria Bichler, representing the third generation to farm the land and live on the homestead. Since the farm’s inception in 1920, the Bichler family has strived to care for the land and their animals to the best of their ability. And, in 2022 that core value has never wavered.

The program has grown significantly in the past 17 years. Since they began their production sale in 2005, they have been able to not only increase the number of bulls and females offered but also create more genetic and phenotypic consistent cattle. They use AI and embryo transfer extensively to ensure they are propagating the best genetics. The ranch is located in south central North Dakota and consists of 250 mother cows which are comprised of both registered and commercial females. Commercial females are utilized in the ET program. 

The Philosophy:  Their philosophy is that quality is always centered around the cowherd. This is why they cull heavily for not only performance and genetics but for relevant traits important to customers such as disposition, udder quality, and structural soundness. Any females failing to meet these requirements are either moved into the recipient herd or are simply culled. The Bichler family believes the best-performing cattle are moderately framed, easy fleshing, and deep-bodied and you will see this in the cattle they produce. They flush superior cows in the herd to produce superior females which in turn are mated to produce bulls for the purebred and commercial producers alike.
