Why Starkville Producers Choose AI

Proven Performance: Select from bulls with documented EPDs for calving ease, growth, carcass merit—no guessing about what your calves will become.
Hybrid Vigor: Systematically create F1 crosses (Angus × Hereford, etc.) maximizing heterosis benefits.
Safety & Management: Eliminate dangerous herd bulls. Control breeding seasons tightly, concentrating calvings for better labor management.

Heat Detection & Synchronization

MSU research has refined synchronization protocols perfect for Mississippi conditions. We utilize proven CIDR-based programs compressing breeding windows into 5-day periods—practical for operations working cattle on weekends. Visual heat detection remains effective for producers preferring natural cycling.

Conception Rates & Management

Proper body condition (BCS 5–6 at breeding) and mineral supplementation directly impact conception. First-service rates averaging 55–65% are realistic with good management. Follow-up pregnancy checking at 35+ days identifies opens early, allowing re-breeding decisions.

Sire Selection Support

We help navigate breed association catalogs, EPD interpretation, and calving-ease priorities. Commercial Angus, Red Angus, SimAngus, and ChiAngus sires dominate our Oktibbeha County recommendations—proven performers matching the Southeast market.
