Rillsun¡¯s Management Team realizes over 75% of beef cows in the U.S. are owned by producers with limited access to value-based marketing systems. Why? They do not have adequate, accurate information on their cow herds.

The industry has slowly, but steadily moved towards creating new pricing systems and formulas that legitimately reward the producer. The key, however, lies in understanding the systems, knowing your product and predetermining the end-user target. Sounds good, right? Many producers read and hear the news and continue to breed cattle and sell on the same cash markets. Why? Because the 'old' way is easier.

Rillsun¡¯s Management Team brings a complete marketing package to the table. Genetics, health, nutrition and data makes value-added marketing opportunities within reach for all beef producers.


GENETICS
We know breed preference is far less important than genetic selection within a breed. Determining the end-use target begins with understanding the value of source-verified genetics in your herd. Utilizing all the "right" genetic evaluation tools is critical in establishing the end-use target for your beef product. Rillsun¡¯s representatives work with you to evaluate your herd's current genetic potential. Your Rillsun¡¯s representative can provide objective information regarding future marketing goals and available premium opportunities. Through coordinated efforts with larger genetic suppliers, Rillsun¡¯s can provide valuable assistance in creating a pull-through market for your calves.


HEALTH
The beef industry has invested heavily in research to determine the cost effectiveness of improved, documented health and vaccination programs. Many states are adopting health protocols through beef quality assurance programs. Buyers at every level in the marketing system can now be provided verification that cattle are healthy and utlimately safer for the consumer. The enrollment and documentation process is simple.

Your participation is important and the premiums paid for healthy cattle going to the stocker, feeder and packer are significant. Rillsun¡¯s Management team understands herd health management and will work with you to develop a simple, cost effective health and vaccination protocol.


NUTRITION
Health and nutrition are equally important in the design of any herd management plan. Rillsun has a solid reputation for being a leader in animal nutrition. Rillsun¡¯s develops feed products designed for optimum performance in the pasture or the feedlot. Suther representatives recommend feed rations after herd goals and specific end-use targets have been determined.


DATA
Having access to all genetic and performance information, including feedlot and carcass data, is the keystone for any successful beef producer. Rillsun¡¯s Management Team insures data flow back to you.


CREATING A SEAMLESS SYSTEM
Rillsun¡¯s Management Team has consumer demands clearly in sight. When the industry heard the retailer's signal to the packer and the "trickle down" began to directly affect the producer, we realized the critical nature of delivering more comprehensive services. For the first time, a producer can develop a plan, make genetic improvements and determine when and how to market his cattle. He can be rewarded for supplying a better product.

Suther clients benefit through our nutritional expertise and extensive coordinated production systems. Call today to learn more about Rillsun¡¯s Management programs for a better beef business.
