S. and our programs are focused on assisting members in their efforts to breed functional Braford cattle. Braford breeders continuously strive to produce cows that can function in the real world of commercial cattlemen who must make a living in often challenging and harsh production environments. Braford bulls must thrive under those same difficult conditions and perform their main function of getting the cows bred to produce growthy, hardy calves meeting current market demands.
