Ingram Angus of Pulaski, Tenn., is a source of diverse genetics. From “a highly maternal bull to a high-octane performance/carcass bull, we have options,” says Jason Upchurch, managing partner with David Cagle and Orrin Ingram.
With a philosophy of keeping cattle good, sound and profitable, no matter the pedigree, Ingram Angus’ easy-fleshing, well-established cow families shine in their lineage. Customer service is at the forefront of their concerns, allowing them to stay in touch with what is required of their seedstock, as well as making recommendations based on customers’ goals.
“The Angus cow has made this breed the ‘go-to’ breed because of the functionality built into the Angus female. We have gone out and built our herd from the most prominent maternal genetics out there to build and market to our customers,” Upchurch says.
Ingram’s semi-annual sales, the second Fridays in April and November, are built on returning customers who know Ingram Angus cattle perform wherever they go.
“Our terrain is less than desirable, and our cattle have to thrive on our native grass with limited supplementation,” Upchurch says, noting the herd is managed to simulate a progressive commercial operation. “Developing our cattle in this type of environment helps us put out a better product for our customers to have cattle with built-in longevity.”
If cattle within their herd can’t perform under these circumstances, they’re replaced with cattle that do. Functionality has an important place at Ingram Angus, alongside a long-lasting lineage.
