It’s Production Sale Week

Located in the short grass country of western Kansas, Lundgren Angus Ranch (LAR) is a family owned and operated registered Angus and Red Angus herd committed to producing seedstock that will meet the ever-increasing demands of today's commercial cow/calf producer and the beef industry.

LAR’s program offers both yearling bulls and heifers in their annual “Dollars” and “Sense” Production sale each February. The yearlings offered in the sale are primarily January and February born calves.

By the time this blog gets posted, we will be just two short days from that “Dollars” and “Sense” Production sale.
