PLAIN CITY, Ohio, February 19, 2025 – Select Sires Inc. is excited to welcome Adalyn Caudill to her role as the beef program administrator. Native to DeGraff, Ohio, Caudill grew up on a row crop and cow-calf operation where she was active in 4-H and FFA. Her involvement in agricultural activities earned her the American FFA Degree. Caudill went on to attend Morehead State University where she dual majored in animal science and agribusiness while serving as an Agricultural Sciences Ambassador and remaining an active member of Collegiate Farm Bureau. She gained industry experience as an intern for the North American International Livestock Exposition (NAILE) where she interacted with exhibitors, breed representatives and show staff, as well as Select Sires Inc. as a livestock technician. After graduation, Caudill accepted a position at Select Sires’ Hoyt Center calf campus.
As the beef program administrator, Caudill will provide administrative support to all aspects of the Select Sires beef program and federation membership. She will assist sire acquisition and entry activities including DNA submission and international registrations, beef product management, and marketing initiatives such as maintaining the beef website.
"It is with great enthusiasm that we welcome Adalyn to the beef team,” said Lorna Marshall, vice president of beef genetics, Select Sires Inc. With her strong background in beef production along with her experience at Select Sires, she is the ideal candidate to help us streamline our processes and drive operational excellence.
