You are a purebred Charolais producer in Northern Virginia. Your main priority is to raise moderate
framed cattle that are easy keeping and structurally correct. The primary income for your operation comes
from the sale of bulls to commercial producers who primarily utilize forage systems for their nutrition
program and sell the majority of their calves at weaning. You keep the top 50% of your females as
replacements.
