On the following pages are lists of the top Brahman operations with the largest number of Brahman animals registered in the ABBA’s Brahman herdbook during specific time periods. These lists were compiled based on data provided by the American Brahman Breeders Association. To present the data as accurately as possible The Brahman Journal combined all ranches with multiple divisions/herd numbers on each list to the best of its ability. In 2017 the DNA requirement of the ABBA was changed mid-year. These rankings reflect the actual number of animals which had their registration process completed in 2017. The list of red Brahman breeders on the following page is a list of breeders that only breed for Red Brahmans. Breeders whose operations breed for gray and red cattle were not included on this list. To compile this list we referenced the ABBA membership category and used breeders that listed themselves as Red breeders first, then cross referenced with public record photos of their herds or contacted breeders directly. The International breeders list was compiled by referencing the breeders whose ABBA membership was in Area 14. This is an unofficial ranking that we create for the enjoyment of our readers. We apologize if anyone that should have been on these lists were not included.
En las siguientes páginas están las listas de las mejores operaciones de Brahman con el mayor número de animales Brahman registrados en el libro de Brahman de la ABBA durante un periodo de tiempo específico. En 2017 los requerimientos de ADN de la ABBA fueron cambiados a mitad de año. Estas clasificaciones reflejan el número actual de animales que completaron su proceso de registro en 2017. La lista de los criadores de Brahman rojo en la siguiente página es de criadores que solo crían Brahman rojo. La lista de criadores internacionales fue recopilada en relación a los criadores cuyas membresías de la ABBA estaban en Area 14. Esta es una clasificación no oficial que fue creada para el entretenimiento de nuestros lectores.
