MCA/MSU Bull Evaluation Program

The MCA/MSU Bull Evaluation Program is the region's premier central bull appraisal program and facility.  The program is a cooperative effort among the Michigan Cattlemen's Assoc., Michigan State Univ., and Plank Farm. The objectives are to:

  • Promote performance-evaluated beef cattle and serve as an educational tool to acquaint producers with its overall value.
  • Provide a common environment for evaluating young bulls for rate of gain, soundness, and body composition.
  • Aid beef producers in obtaining superior bulls that have been evaluated for growth, breeding and structural soundness, and carcass merit.
