Another point to George's thought. Ark stockers brought in CNBG stock many years ago (at least 30 years)and over time have have adapted to Ark climate (become more cold tolerant). Don't underestimate local conditioning over time. Plus Ark had native BG which are in some cases mixed into the gene pool of CNBG moved (sold ) to the north. It really just depends.
Very interesting Eric.
Had a nice personal visit with Todd yesterday and he told me the same thing. One of his Arkansas associates heavily mix native BG with lesser CNBG traits to survive more cold northern conditions.
They just call them CNBG.
