About SGBI

Our Mission

Santa Gertrudis Breeders International (SGBI) provides progressive leadership, services, programs and technology to promote and broaden the long-term profitability of Santa Gertrudis influence within the beef industry by being member driven and consumer focused.

Santa Gertrudis … The Data Driven, Profit Proven, Preferred American Beef Breed

Our Legacy

SGBI is an industry leader providing cattlemen reliable genetic information and selection tools designed to assist with the identification of animals that are profitable and productive. SGBI’s dependable DNA-verified genetic evaluation enables cattlemen to make sound selection decisions, pinpointing animals that will perform regardless of environmental conditions.

Since 2013, Santa Gertrudis Breeders International has made tremendous genetic progress due to the association’s aggressive and innovative approach to data collection that documents breed performance from birth to harvest. Data sets have been utilized to improve genetic characteristics such as fertility, weaning weight, marbling and other economically relevant traits.

In 2013, SGBI was the first Bos indicus-influenced breed association to provide genomically enhanced expected progeny differences (EPDs). SGBI was also the first beef breed to use the powerful single-step method for incorporating DNA into the association’s genetic evaluation.

In 2018, the association released two new fertility EPDs – Heifer Pregnancy and Breed Back – and a new genetic selection tool, Igenity® Santa Gertrudis, a DNA-verified genetic selection tool that enables ranchers to evaluate candidate replacement heifers sired by registered Santa Gertrudis bulls.

The association’s tools enable breeders to better identify profitable genetics and put selection pressure on specific traits, such as carcass, reproductive, efficiency and growth traits.

Moving forward, SGBI remains committed to its goal of improving member and customer profitability, sustainability and satisfaction.
