1st Agribition Sale held : Sold for $2,100

Green Tag Angus Sale : Mankota, SK

Bob Switzer is not without opinion, if you want it, just ask. When asked about:

• Selling semen – “No semen should be sold until a bull is proven and that is the way the entire beef industry should go.”
  
  
• EPD’s – “@##$%$$##@”
  
  
• Performance – “I believe in performance testing and all bulls should be tested in one group rather than individual contemporary groups.”
  
  
• Breeders – “You are not a breeder, until you feed your own cattle to see how they perform.”
  
  
• The future – “The government needs to subsidize fairs to enhance breeder participation. The cost of showing is prohibitive for younger, smaller breeders. The juniors are our future and we best keep them on the farm.”

The Switzer heritage is now into its fourth generation; they have been pioneers and builders truly adding value to the Angus breed and the livestock industry in every facet. They were named “Breeder of theYear” in 2003 by the Saskatchewan Angus Association, but their work as breed ambassadors stretches over six decades. Their dedication and voluntary ideas have made the Angus breed the leader in this country.
