“Paraguay as a country represents a group of breeders who are very focused on fertility, maternal quality, breed character, and moderate frame sizes,” said Rachel Cutrer. “The BRC vision so closely aligns with this Paraguay vision, and we are very grateful that these large scale Brahman operations have chosen to use BRC bulls in such high volume.”
“We are also very thankful and honored to be one of two USA breeders listed on this list – BRC and J.D. Hudgins,” she added. “We have a tremendous amount of respect for the quality of cattle in Paraguay and consider it a testament to our program to see the popularity of our bulls amongst the true cattleman in this country.”
While semen no longer exists for Noble, we offer a great selection of semen on Noble sons like Dutton, 160, and others. 259 semen is available on a limited basis.
