The
Driving Strategy to the new Circle 3 Lineup, will be
three fold:
1. Elite Fleckvieh Genetics -– our Core Business -- Continue to
Develop & Provide the most Complete & Diverse Fleckvieh Genetic Bank
in the World based upon our Breeding Strategies of Genetic Lines & Cow
Families positioning Bar 5 as the leader in Fleckvieh genes,
2. Elite Genetics -- Continue to develop relationships with the leading
Breeders & Genetic companies within the Polled Simmental, Red Angus & Angus
industries,
3. Multi Breed Hybrid & Composites -- Connect Elite Genetics of
Fleckvieh, Polled Simmental, Red Angus & Angus to the Commercial Industry
via Multi-Breed Stabilizers, based upon sound crossbreeding strategies.
Get
ready for some exciting times at Circle 3 as we develop
our Elite Fleckvieh Program & Producer Partner
network to be Bigger, Better & recognized as the
Best in the World ( easier Calving, more Vigour at
Birth, high Marbling, lower Frame & extreme Muscling)
,………. breed Red Angus cattle with
our Fleckvieh Eyes & partners of Brylor & LCoC
( bigger REA, lower Cack Fat, and higher Yield Grade); ….
and …… begin to breed Angus cattle with
associates of LCoC, Benchmark & PrimeTime to name
a few …then enter the Polled Simmental industry
with our Polled Flecks & Polled Simmie Blacks (
SB) … all leading to what we hope is a highly
respected “Multi –Breed” Stabilizer
program of Hybrids ( two breeds ) & Composites
( three breed or more ) of both Bull sales & Semen
sales.

Yes,
We are raising the Bar !! Leachman & Bar 5 are teaming
up to bring you top genetics in Fleckvieh, Angus, Red
Angus, and Composite bloodlines...........
That’s
right, two of the most respected names in North American
beef genetics are joining forces. Linked by their relentless
pursuit of the most profitable genetics available, Bar
5 and Leachman have formed a relationship to bring you
top genetics in Fleckvieh, Angus, Red Angus, and Composite
bloodlines. Every bull has been selected by us, as breeders,
to use first in our own programs and then to be shared
with our customers.
You’ll
find that the Bulls from each program deliver a combination
of phenotype, performance, and true efficiency. You’ll
find our bulls to be “Profitable Solutions” to
your breeding objectives.
No
two breeders have farther global reach, or more experience
traveling the globe in search of the right Genetic lines & Cow
Families.
Bar
5 markets South African Fleckvieh in various sales throughout
North America & Brazil each year, from it’s
operations as the leading Fleckvieh breeding herd in
South Africa, and the main breeding cowherd of Fleckvieh,
Red Angus & Angus breeding stock at the headquarters
in Canada. Bar 5 hosts two Elite Fleckvieh breeding stock
sales at it’s headquarters in Canada each year & operates
two Bull sales a year, and on April 8, 2006 will host
it’s 33rd Annual Spring Bull & Female Sale.
Bar 5, through the wholly owned Circle 3 Genetics Ltd.
Export Company, sells beef semen to 24 countries, both
independently and within a relationship with Semex Beef.
The Bar 5 brand is known the world over for profitable,
high gaining, rugged maternal Fleckvieh Beef cattle.
Leachman
Cattle of Colorado ( LCoC ) has marketed over 2,000 bulls
in the last two years out of the newly re-located Colorado
headquarters. In just their third year of operation,
they are already among the 10 largest seed stock producers
in the US. Lee Leachman manages the operation and was
CEO of the predecessor company Leachman Cattle Company,
which operated the world’s largest one brand bull
sale. Leachman genetics flow around the world in breeding
programs in Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Columbia,
Venezuela, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina.
The “Leachman” name, “Hairpin” brand,
and website www.leachman.com is
a family multi-generation icon; which was recently purchased
by third generation cattlemen Lee Leachman & his
partner, Dallas Horton of Wellington, Colorado. The Leachman
name is recognized as The Pioneer name in “ Designed
Crossbreeding Systems.” Leachman developed the
Stabilizer Composite that has since been copied by cattlemen
around the world. Leachman also helped design the Santa
Cruz at King Ranch, the Montana in Brazil, and the Ranquel
program in Argentina.
No
two breeders can bring you more global experience to
ensure that your cattle program stays competitive in
the new global economy. Bar 5 and Leachman Cattle of
Colorado are committed to building the best database
available on beef seed stock. Both operations collaborate
with Beef Improvement Ontario ( BIO ) to calculate “Total
Profit” indexes. Our combined databases total over
400,000 animals within the BIO database which has records
of almost 3 million animals.
We
are pioneering measurements for overall efficiency in
areas such as feed efficiency, reproductive success,
and hybrid vigor retention. Our cutting edge technology
will help ensure that you make the right breeding decisions.
Our goal is provide solutions to our customers so they
can be everything they want to be, including increasingly
profitable in a highly competitive & evolving global
market.
