2022 – Red Hill Farms                              Cross-Ty Bulls
                             Cross-Ty Bulls

        There is good reason this program is going to be called Cross-TY. Ty Jones is involved in every-
        thing we do at Red Hill, and he is adventurous. He has heard so much positive family discussion
        about crossbreeding and hybrid vigor that he is totally sold on providing Red Hill customers with
        the opportunity to reap the economic advantages gained from crossbreeding.
        Ty has also observed the tremendous performance advantages of crossbred pigs compared
        to purebreds. We will continue to identify cattle from other breeds that adapt to the fescue
        environment and management scheme at Red Hill. The reason for these experimental efforts is
        to identify breeds that can be used to provide more opportunities to increase the profitability of
        our customers. These new genetics are likely to be made available as hybrids or composites;
        however, we will not rule out the use of one or two other pure breeds in the future.
                        South Poll Crossbred Bulls
        The South Poll breed is a Composite breed developed by Teddy Gentry at Bent Tree Farms in
        AL. Ty and his granddad visited Bent Tree and had the chance to see the outstanding Foundation
        herd of this Southern Adaptable breed. After studying the herd, Ty decided to mate some of his
        cows to a South Poll bull. Lots 60 and 61 are hybrid bulls from 2 of these matings.
