U.S. Premium Beef Qualified Custom Feedlot List

U.S. Premium Beef's Qualified Custom Feedlot (QCF) list is designed to assist producers who are looking for a feedlot that has knowledge and experience in finishing cattle for USPB's quality-based system. USPB recognizes these feedlots on the QCF list because they agree to practice the requirements summarized below. This added assurance provides confidence to producers looking for a custom feedlot where USPB has examined and confirmed the production practices. To be included on the QCF list, each feedlot has satisfied the requirements described below. For a complete listing of requirements, please contact the USPB office.

QCF Feedlots:

  • are regular suppliers of finished cattle to USPB, and have experience in managing and marketing cattle to our value-based endpoint.
  • are USPB Unitholders, and make those units available for customer use.
  • actively promote U.S. Premium Beef to their customer base.
  • encourage the use of individual animal electronic identification systems.
  • consult veterinary expertise for selection and proper use of animal health products.
  • consult the services of a nutritionist for information on feeding cattle for a value-based marketing system.
  • manage stress on incoming feeder cattle to ensure optimum cattle feedlot and carcass performance.

USPB field staff conducts regular interviews at these feedlots to assist with any program questions and ensure production and management practices agree with USPB guidelines.

Proper management is a critical ingredient to successful grid marketing. However, it is not a guarantee. Genetic potential of the cattle plays an important role as well. The USPB Qualified Seedstock Supplier list is also available on this website. These breeders offer superior genetics designed to succeed on the USPB grid. Call them for your commercial bull needs or for information regarding feeder cattle with their genetics.

U.S. Premium Beef Qualified Seedstock Supplier List

U.S. Premium Beef's Qualified Seedstock Supplier (QSS) list is designed to assist producers who seek a genetic supplier with knowledge and experience in producing cattle for USPB's quality-based system. USPB recognizes these breeders on the QSS list because they agree to practice the requirements listed below. As a result, commercial ranchers have added assurance that these breeders offer high quality genetics designed for USPB's integrated production system.

To be included on the QSS list, each ranch must satisfy the requirements described below. For a complete listing of requirements, please contact the USPB office.

QSS Ranches:

  • are USPB Unitholders and can assist you in marketing your cattle to USPB.
  • strive to produce high quality genetics for all traits, especially the carcass traits needed to produce premiums on USPB's value-based grids.
  • actively promote U.S. Premium Beef to their customer base.
  • are full-time seedstock producers committed to breeding top-quality genetics.

USPB field staff conducts regular interviews at these ranches to answer questions and ensure production and management practices agree with USPB guidelines.

Although genetics play an important role in successful grid marketing, it is not a guarantee.

Many of these custom feeders offer USPB shares for lease and have the experience you need to maximize your cattle's genetic potential.
