Revenue Sharing
Spring Valley is selling Full Possession and 2/3 semen interest in all bulls in this offering.
Spring Valley will retain a 1/3 revenue sharing semen interest in all bulls selling unless otherwise stated.
You, the buyer, have total control of the bull and 100% of the salvage value belongs to you.  The reason for retaining this semen interest is simple.  Many of these bulls have the individual performance, pedigree, EPDs and carcass merit to develop into outstanding sires, but the truly superior sires that we need to advance our program and provide a better product for you, our customers, are not being   identified until later in life after progeny records increase their predictability.  If and when we would like semen on any of these bulls, we would collect the semen in the off-breeding season at
your convenience and our expense.
If you decide to collect semen for your own account the semen is 100% yours.  The number of bulls on which a high volume of semen is sold is relatively small, but in the event semen sales develop on any of these bulls, we and you, as the bull owner, will share the net revenues.  Over time, this will affect very few bulls.
We will be more than happy to visit with you and answer any questions you may have pertaining to the bulls offered in this sale.
