Local angus ranch honored nationally

EZ Angus Ranch in Porterville has been recognized nationally by the American Angus Association for having one registered Angus cow included in the Association’s 2013 Pathfinder Report.

Only 1,992 of the more than 25,000 American Angus Association members are represented in this year’s report, according to Bill Bowman, chief operating officer and director of performance programs of the Association with headquarters in Saint Joseph, Mo.

The Pathfinder program identifies superior Angus cows based upon recorded performance traits economically important to efficient beef production.
