ABOUT US

The American Roping Cattle LLC (ARC) formed a pilot program in 2007 to evaluate and test domestic Corrientes. ARC's goal is to serve as an avenue to identify American ranches producing roping cattle that meet or exceed the requirements of today's team roping industry.

Their mission is to evaluate data on indigenous cattle that will aid in establishing the quality and value of American raised Corrientes. Information gathered will create a true market value based on measured performance at team ropings and performance at the feedyard and packer. The market value of American raised cattle participating in this program will be assessed by precise standards rather than prices of Mexican Corrientes crossing the border. Those ranches raising outstanding performers, identified by ARC, will be a national resource for roping contractors across the United States. Cattle will be managed and data collected on individual animals using innovative hardware and software developed by ARC. Ranchers can use the information gathered to improve their herds. The program will lead to increased marketing opportunities for participants who will be able to privately view performance data on their individual animals through ARC's website throughout the length of the pilot program.
