The AMAA passed two new motions at their last board meeting.
a) No Maine-Anjou carrier bulls will be registered after Jan. 1, 2009. This rule is in regard to PHA & TH, so bulls will need to be free by parentage or by test.
b) Beginning Jan. 1, 2009 calves will not be registered out of carrier bulls of another breed. (the wording in the motion is a little different but this is the bottom line of the motion.)
Cudos to the AMAA board for focusing on the betterment of the breed! This will affect all of us but I think that it is a step in the right direction. It is for the good of the many.
I also should add that these motions may come back up for discussion again but this is where the motions sit at this point in time.
