There is much debate these days about sustainability. The term is attached to a variety of labels for production agriculture. At Hinkle’s Prime Cut Angus, our responsibility is to produce Angus cattle with sustainable value. Not cattle that only have value at the cow/calf level, or the feedyard or the packer, but seedstock with sustainable value from farm to fork.
HPC is a total AI and embryo transfer operation using a very disciplined system of mating progeny proven, high accuracy sires to progeny proven, high accuracy females. Our herd is rooted in proven, Gardiner Angus Ranch genetics and our business philosophy mirrors this very successful Angus operation. As a result, our customers can buy with confidence knowing their genetic investments are backed by the best available science and technology, a proven selection system and a commitment to sustainable value.

Allied Producer Statement
HPC Breeding Guarantee
We guarantee that all breeding cattle sold by Hinkle’s Prime Cut Angus, both bulls and females, are fertile to the best of our knowledge. If a bull is injured at any time in the 12 months following the sale so as to make him functionally infertile, we will provide you with a satisfactory replacement, if available, or issue you a credit equal to the bull’s purchase price minus the salvage value received for that bull. If a female is determined to be a non-breeder, then we would ask you to sell her and would offer you the difference of her purchase price minus the salvage value as a credit in any future HPCA sale. This guaranteed is in addition to the Sale Terms and Conditions of the American Angus Association, which also apply. Adapted with permission from Gardiner Angus Ranch, Ashland, Kansas.
This is not a life insurance policy. We will not replace a dead animal if it is killed or dies for any reason. We would suggest that normal care still needs to be exercised toward these animals and that particularly the yearling bulls not be allowed to get too thin.
All credit is good until it is used and does not expire. We would simply ask you to contact us before you cull your infertile animal.
