Welcome to the 15 th Annual Kraye Angus bull sale.

The business of producing beef becomes more complicated each year. In this age of modern technology, we are constantly flooded with more data, and more facts that we have to wade through, to make sound, knowledgeable decisions about our cattle breeding programs.

Over time, one fact that has remained constant is the fertility and reproductive soundness of the Angus breed. Angus females are unequaled in maternal traits and mothering ability. Angus steers grow efficiently and have the characteristics that improve the quality and consistency of beef.

Cattle prices remained high, through the fall, and many Kraye Angus bull customers continued to top area markets, with well developed steers and heifers.

The bulls in this sale offering will continue with the standards set at Kraye Angus, to be a solid set of hard working, no nonsense bulls.
