Ron Boerchers welcomed everyone. “It quite an honour to see all people from all over NA. It is a hard to decision to decide but the body will tell you when it is time. Herd is at prime and ready to go across NA and produce for new breeders, index, show cattle and generations of EX. Don’t think the heifers and cows looked that good on the farm but this team has done a great job of getting these cattle ready. My wife Karen has been the backbone of the operation. All of this is in her heart. This week she has cooked for the crew and done a great job. I hope everyone will have as much happiness with cows and families as we have enjoyed creating them over the years in creating these cow families.
