Black Angus Cattle

Our Mission:

To produce quality functional animals that are profitable in today's diversified marketplace.

Background

In 1873 George Grant imported the first Angus from Scotland to America. From these first four bulls the Black Angus breed has become one of the most popular breeds in America today. The American Angus Association is the largest beef breed registry association in the world. No other beef registry records more cattle a year than the American Angus Association.

CJ Ranch is proud to be a part of the Black Angus heritage. Our goal is to produce low to moderate birthweight cattle with great growth potential. To achieve this end we have accumulated some of the best bloodlines in the business.  We believe in producing quality NOT quantity. We have selected bloodlines that allow our calves to excel in the feedlot with an above-national-average number grading out as Certified Angus Beef. All of our calves have graded out Choice or better.

As part of our continuing commitment to quality, Johanna and Neal have individual certification in The Idaho Beef Quality Assurance Program sponsored by the University of Idaho Extension, and CJ Ranch has Level I ranch certification in the same program. Neal is also on the USDA local Conservation District board and is a graduate of Ranching for Profit.
