Not all changes can happen overnight, but we do listen to our membership. 

The MHBA has implemented a new rule that all show cattle must have a DNA profile on file with complete parentage verification (dam and sire verification) with the American Hereford Association before show entry deadline.*

This rule will take effect on the following dates:

Steers - effective 1/1/2024

Bulls - effective 1/1/2025

Heifers - effective 1/1/2026

*Please note that DNA verification not completed by the entry deadline for the 2024 National Western Stock Show will be accepted at check-in.  This exception only applies to the 2024 NWSS.

2023 MHBA-MHYF Ballots have been counted and the results are in!

Congratulations to our new MHBA Board members!!!
