Hereford Bull Grants Available Again for the Buckeye Hereford Spring Sale

     For the third year the Buckeye Hereford Association will be awarding bull grants to qualified cattlemen.  These grants are to be used toward the purchase of Hereford bulls at the 82nd Annual Buckeye Hereford Spring Sale. The Buckeye Hereford Association has two grants available for this coming year of $1,000. If you are not a Hereford breeder but are interested in maximizing heterosis and profit in your herd this program is for you!! 

    In 2021 Buckeye Hereford members Bill and Bobbi Dunn of Dunn Herefords donated a heifer that was sold in the Buckeye Hereford Spring Show & Sale at the Ohio Beef Expo. The proceeds from that heifer were set aside to be used to promote Herefords on crossbred cattle. In 2022 Bill Dunn and the Buckeye Board decided to start awarding bull grants to breeders looking to use Hereford bulls purchased through the Buckeye Spring Sale.    

     Purchasing and using a Hereford bull would also enable you to begin producing calves that would be qualified to sell in Hereford Feeder calf sales where white faced calves receive substantial premium above sale barn prices.  The application form can be accessed through the QR code here or found on the Buckeye Hereford Facebook page.  Applications must be received by March 1, 2025.
