What a week! 👏 The first-ever CharAdvantage Week with Superior Livestock at the Big Horn Classic was a great success!

It was exciting to see Charolais-influenced cattle take center stage and showcase the value, performance and marketability they bring to the beef industry. Programs like CharAdvantage continue to create opportunities for producers to add value to their cattle through verified age, source and genetics.

A big thank you to Superior Livestock Auction, the producers who participated and everyone who helped make the inaugural CharAdvantage Week one to remember. We’re looking forward to continuing to grow this program and creating even more opportunities for Charolais-influenced cattle!

CharAdvantage® enrollment is creating real demand in today's feeder cattle market.

We currently have cattle feeders and order buyers actively seeking CharAdvantage-enrolled calves, especially those sired by bulls that rank above the breed average for TSI (Terminal Sire Index).

If you're marketing calves this fall and would like:
• A bid on your CharAdvantage-enrolled calves
• To connect with interested feeders and order buyers
• Assistance marketing calves through your local auction market or an upcoming video sale

Contact your AICA field representative or the AICA office. We're here to help connect your calves with buyers who recognize and are willing to pay for documented Charolais genetic value. https://charolaisusa.com/about/about-aica/
