Spotlight Series: TA Cattle’s Red Angus, Simmental and Angus Program Built for Longevity

On this episode of the Herd Report Spotlight Series, we travel to northeast Nebraska to visit TA Cattle, a Red Angus, Simmental, and Angus seedstock operation focused on fertility, structure, and longevity. Brothers Travis and Andy Albright walk through their program ahead of their Feb. 7 annual sale, sharing why heterosis, tight breeding windows, and forage-based development remain central to everything they do. In this episode, we discuss: Why crossbreeding and heterosis drive fertility and longevity How TA Cattle develops aged bulls without heavy inputs Selecting genetics for real-world commercial conditions Red Angus, Simmental, and Angus sire groups featured in the sale Registered females and over 130 bred commercial heifers, sorted by calf sex If you’re a commercial cattle producer looking for cattle that hold up, breed back, and stay productive, this Spotlight Series episode delivers a detailed look at how TA Cattle builds cattle that last.
