Professional Beef Services Vision
Professional Beef Services (PBS) is a beef performance advisor which facilitates evidence-based decisions to induce positive economic change for beef operations and uses this information also for in-house benefit. PBS is committed to maximizing net returns by providing the cutting edge information necessary and to facilitate optimization of time spent on herd management through the use of data collection, management and information return services. Narrow profit margins in the beef business increases the importance of an efficient operation. Regardless of the size of operation the most important information is knowledge of what works and what does not. Below are general philosophies PBS follows to achieve this vision.
Evidence based decision making
Everyone in the beef industry frequently makes very important and difficult decisions. The best choices are made by utilizing available data to weigh the potential implications of changing a management plan or applying a new strategy. Farm variability dictates that different farms may need to approach problems in diverse manners to achieve the best results. To maximize net returns for each farm, they should have the most accurate information available at their fingertips.
Convenience based
Our goal is to provide a simple and convenient system to collect and maintain invaluable records.
PBS can help you utilize information on a current database or a spiral notebook.
Keeping up with the volume of information available in the beef industry is a terrific task. We constantly attend meetings, read research summaries, and consult with other segments of the beef industry to stay current on the newest trends. We then provide applicable information and advice to you in an easy to use format.
Collecting and maintaining performance records is a labor intensive proposition. We have established a system that minimizes the amount of time the farm manager will have to spend managing the data, while maximizing the amount of information gained from these numbers by providing applicable data summary reports.
Net return is the ultimate goal
PBS is geared to maximize net return for beef operations. Numerous management strategies are geared toward increasing production, but PBS desires to assist farms in making choices that have a positive economic impact on the farm. We want to utilize technologies and management strategies that can be implemented in a cost effective manner. Profitable producers is our bottom line target.
