CULP’S COMMENTS

THE WAY I SEE IT

by Ken Culp, III, Ph.D. Chairman of the Board, American Chianina Association

hether you viewed live or via streaming video, everyone watching the shows in Denver and Fort Worth could attest to the depth and quality of the cattle exhibited. While I won’t recap the shows in this column (complete results and a report for each show are included in this issue), I do want to give a few notable “shout outs!” In Denver, Sara Sullivan won both the Junior Heifer Show and the Open Chianina Female Show with JSUL Who Dat Steiner 8266F ET, an impressive, beautifully designed, swannecked, deep bodied, sound moving daughter of ASHW Who Da Man. “Steiner” is 15.1% Chianina blood. For the third consecutive year, Tracy Cattle Company exhibited the Grand Champion Bull in Denver. In 2018, Justin led his two-year old, MEFC Unanimous 1CA (sired by the Angus bull Vision Unanimous, out of a Melroe-bred Momentum daughter) to the backdrop in the Chiangus Show. In 2019, Justin led a Unanimous son, TRAC Fetish 750E, to the backdrop in the Chianina show. In 2020, TRAC Enabler 850F (a full-brother to Fetish) continued the family tradition when he was selected as the Denver Chianina Champion. In the Chiangus show, Katy Satree (with significant assistance from Doug and Jane) exhibited both the Grand and Reserve Grand Champion bulls with DAJS The Fixer 132 (who also won in Louisville) and DAJS Black Out 93. Two weeks later, these two bulls swept the Chiangus bull show in Fort Worth. This made a clean sweep for DAJS The Fixer 132, who won the ACA Triple Crown; Grand Champion in Louisville, Denver, and Fort Worth!!! If that feat wasn’t impressive enough, Team Satree also exhibited both the Grand and Reserve Grand Bulls in the Chianina show with DAJS Unyielding 924 2CM and DAJS Ghostbuster 546 2CM. (Both bulls were sired by Unstoppable.) Breeding, owning, and exhibiting the grand and reserve grand champion bulls in both the Chiangus and Chianina shows would make a memorable day for anyone. However, Sam Rucker took it one step further when he asked Katy to

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

marry him; capping a day that no one in Satree family is likely to forget. Congratulations to Katy and Sam! Of course, the elephant in the room is the impact of COVID-19 on American agriculture. Commodity prices have plummeted, while farmers, ranchers, producers and growers continue to plan for the upcoming planting season, process new calves, make planting decisions and plan matings for the next calf crop. The optimism and resilience of American farmers and ranchers is incredible. All three Boards (ACA, ACLA, AJCA) are busy meeting and making plans for the year. COVID-19 helped usher both the ACA and ACLA into the 20th century as we have begun meeting via Zoom (not surprising, the AJCA beat us to using that technology for holding meetings.) The ACA Board was scheduled to meet in Platte City on Friday, April 3 through Sunday, April 5. However, Platte County was under a travel ban, and we ultimately decided to conduct committee meetings (on Friday) via Zoom, and hold our board meeting on Saturday via Zoom calls. While this wasn’t the most productive and efficient meeting that we’ve ever conducted, it was an effective means of connecting and conducting business that is important to the Association. Decisions made at the April board meeting that impact the membership include: • Membership benefits: Beginning on September 1, 2020, membership or activity fees must be current in order to register or transfer cattle. Currently, the ACA has fees for members, and charges triple fees for non-members. Beginning on September 1, nonmember rates will no longer be available. Rather, in order to register or transfer an animal, the breeder must pay a membership or activity fee. • Multi-generation Cow Catch Up: Through August 31, we have introduced a most cost effective means of registering calves out of unregistered dams. Currently, it costs $75 to import a Commercial (unregistered)

dam into the ACA Herdbook. It is our contention that most of these commercial cows probably could be traced back to a sire or dam already registered in the ACA herd book. During the multi-generation cow catch-up, a breeder pays the normal fee to register the calf and $25 to catch up and register each previous generation. Therefore, if the calf’s great grand-sire or great-granddam were registered, the breeder would pay $35 to register the calf, $25 to register its dam, and $25 to register its granddam. We hope you take advantage of this great opportunity. • Egg Extravaganza. The Egg Extravaganza will be held at the 2020 North American in conjunction with our national show and annual membership meeting activities. This will give the Egg Extravaganza Committee ample time to identify, catalog and advertise all of the donations and make this a truly spectacular event. Half of the money raised at the Egg Extravaganza will be paid out as premiums to the champions; the other half will be used by the ACA. Stay tuned for more information!!! Some of the issues that the ACA Board is currently considering and working on include the following: • Creating a DNA department • Determining the most cost-effective means of bundling tests for the genetic defects that are most prevalent in ACA cattle • Whole Herd Reporting/Total Herd Enrollment options • Discounting the costs of registrations and transfers for WHR/THE participants • Sibling co-ownership of cattle to qualify for bred and owned status The ACA Board of Directors is hard at work, serving association, and directing the work of the organization. Please feel free to

contact any board member at any time. We welcome your input! Of course, the question on everyone’s mind: Will we hold the 2020 National Junior Heifer Show? Plans are moving forward for the 2020 NJHS. On-line entries opened on April 15 and are scheduled to close on May 15. (Chiangus Classic nominations and entries coincide with those dates also.) Heather and Lindsay Broek from the AMAA are in constant communication with each other, the Ohio Planning Committee, the staff at the Allen County (Ohio) Fairgrounds and their junior boards. Continue to monitor our Facebook page (American Junior Chianina Association) and the ACA website (www.chicattle.org) for the most up-to-date information. These are challenging and trying times; especially for those of us who are accustomed to setting dates, making schedules, conducting meetings and living and working according to the dictates of our calendars. But we have it easier than most. Juggling child care and helping with homework is no longer a part of our daily routine. A “new normal” is emerging. Our futures and our livelihood depend upon our ability to adjust, adapt and reinvent. This relates to individuals, families, events, businesses and the ACA. We are continuously looking for ways to serve our membership, expand promotional and marketing opportunities, and register more cattle. We all need to determine how to adapt to our changing environment. Life isn’t likely to return to the old normal; rather, we’ll live and work in a new normal. The ACA is no different. We must seek to identify ways to serve our members in a changing environment. Additionally, all ACA members must also consider how they can do their part to support our association. Members are the lifeblood of the association; it will take all of us to navigate these shifting, turbulent waters. We’re up to the task; we’re stronger as an association than as a collection of individual breeders. Together, we can persevere, overcome and build a stronger, more resilient future. That’s the way I see it.

STAFF REPORTS

NOTES FROM THE FIELD By: Dustin Hurlbut, Director of Sales/Marketing, ACA Field Representative

hen the year started off I was traveling quite a bit, however, like many, travel has really slowed down and somewhat stopped. I’m ready for the pandemic to be over, I’m ready to get back to traveling and visiting with breeders. We started 2020 in Denver, with our shows on the hill, but NEW this year – we had a tent in the yards amongst the bull displays. The weather was beautiful and traffic was heavy in the tent all weekend. It appeared that the membership that stopped by really enjoyed having the tent and were excited to see a presence back in the yards. Everyone seemed very supportive of the idea. I came home for a few days and then was off to Ft Worth for the stock show. Coming from the tundra to Texas in the middle of winter is a pretty nice change of pace! I met Heather at the airport and off to the show we went. We had really good numbers and the competition was deep! We had a couple days at the show to visit with and meet some new people. After the show was over Heather and I drove down to Dr. Ward Lane’s and we reached his ranch about 11 pm. We spent the next day with him touring pastures looking at his Red Chiangus and black Chiangus cows and calves. We went to several pastures during the day and even stopped at a historical museum in his small town. It was a good time spending the day with him and meeting some of his family and learning about his operation. If you are in the market for some Red Chiangus cattle give him a call. After a little while back home, it was time for my the next trek and I was off to the Nebraska Cattleman’s Classic for a couple days. We didn’t have very many numbers but the

quality was good and they sold well. Leaving Kearney I headed for North Platte to Justin Tracy’s to take a look at his bull offering and they did not disappoint. As always the hospitality was second to none! dustin@chicattle.org After I got home from there the 605.380.8052 brakes were applied with Covid-19 and we are still dealing with it as I write this. I for one am very optimistic that we will get going again and be back to normal (if there is a normal) in no time! I have fielded many calls about Junior Nationals and I tell everyone that we are moving forward and I believe the show will happen and we will be Livin’ on Lima Time shortly! Bull sales both private treaty and auctions are still going on as normal, everything is just a little different to the point of crowds not being as big, however people are still buying bulls to get their cows bred. The demand for high quality bulls is still there. If you are looking for a new herd bull let me know and I will put you in contact with one of our members. There are still some really good bulls available around the country. I have been on the phone a lot with members and everyone I talk to is ready for this to be over so we can either get back to sitting in the sale barns, going to town for coffee and getting their kids back to activities, whether it be sports or showing livestock! I hope that everyone has had a great calving season to this point and you can get in the fields to plant your crops! See you down the road.

am writing this letter in the most uncertain times of my life. I hope that this finds all of you healthy and safe. With all of the negativity in this world today there is still so much to be thankful for. I know our family has been able to spend lots of valuable time together while sometimes our life is just to busy to do so. The one thing that has my two young boys excited is the thoughts of summer shows and mainly Junior Nationals. My first Junior National I showed at was in Richmond, Ind. Now, 30 years later, knowing the possibility that this will be my boys first is amazing. And this one is extra special because it’s in our hometown of Lima, Ohio and to say the least, it has us more than excited! As an operation, we are continuing to breed and raise more and more Chi and Chiangus cattle every year and for us the value of the cattle is remaining as strong as ever. With that being said, I want to encourage all of you to register your cattle and take the time to catch up on pedigrees. We all know the value of raising a female that can be exhibited at a national show and for us it means all the difference. I am truly excited to be a national board member and if there are any questions or I can help in any way please feel free to get a hold of me. Remember, there are great times in this world soon ahead. Stay positive and keep raising those awesome Chi cattle.

ACA BOARD OF DIRECTORS Industry Standards & Perceptions by Dr. Rob Sheets, At Large Director

ast year the ACA conducted a survey of the ACA membership with the purpose of getting a better understanding of the issues important to them and direction to advance the ACA. One of the issues, which I have felt passionate about, is returning ACA registrations to a fractional pedigree ( 1/4, 1/2, 3/4…etc) verses the actual percentage (6.25%,12.5%, 13.3% …) printed on the certificate of registrations. To understand how the ACA and other cattle registries have evolved since the introduction of “continental” breeds in the early 1970’s, a little review is required. Up until that time in the USA, the cattle industry was dominated by three breeds; Angus, Hereford, and Shorthorns. No up breeding program schematics were available to breed base (commercial) cattle up to “purebred” cattle in the British breeds. So when the new breed associations formed, they provided rules to use base cattle to generational up breed to “purebreds” of each particular breed. The rules for up breeding were not universal from association to association as they acted independently from one another. Each association set their own registration qualifications and the cattle industry recognized them. These new associations (registering the “new” Continental breeds) set guideline rules to up breed first generation (F1) cross cattle to “purebred” level cattle by generational breeding. (It should be noted that the Charolais association did have an up breeding program at this time and the Shorthorns would later adopt one also). These new “continental” breeds dramatically changed the USA livestock industry not only by form and function, but by how you could get to breeding “purebred” cattle without going though an established seed stock breeder. A lot of “Continental” breeds came into the USA through “full bloods” and the increased use of A.I. (artificial insemination). Importing “full bloods” was extremely expensive and time consuming due to customs and importation regulations, and thus A.I. was the practical and efficient way to introduce these new breeds DNA into the USA cattle population. Industry legends such as Herman Purdy, Harlan Richie, Roger Hunsley and Jack Phillips, just to name a few, were at the forefront of bringing these new breeds into the USA. Chianina, Simmental, Limousin and MaineAnjou are major breeds that survived the long journey to recognition and acceptance by cattlemen and the cattle industry. These particular four breed associations all have evolved and

share a common method on using a generational up breeding program to obtain a “purebred” (not “full blood”) animal to fit the traditional cattle industry acceptance of purebred”. Though these four breeds all started the same way, the ACA is the only breed that has not given their “purebreds” breeding value (paper value) of 100%, but remained registering cattle with the actual percentage of “full blood” DNA in ACA cattle. Geneticist of all breeds use the actual percentage of the original “full blood” DNA plus any other breeds’ percentage in the animals’ pedigree to calculate EPD values. These other associations, giving 100% breeding value (paper value) to their “purebreds,” gained acceptance as “purebred” breeds versus only a composite cattle breed. They gave incentive to their breeders to breed to the “purebred” generation level of cattle as to be recognized by the rest of the cattle industry. Let me be clear, their cattle’s percentage of original “full blood” DNA has gone down drastically also, though not quite to the level of ACA cattle. Perceptions = Market Share! These other associations have done nothing illegal or wrong, but they have advanced their breeds by establishing 100% breeding (paper) value to their “purebreds” to gain industry acceptance. Please don’t think I am blaming nor disparaging any former or present ACA Board Member or Administrator; I am merely stating the time is past due to make some adjustments to the ACA rules of registration to bring us on to an equal playing field with other breeds. I’m asking all of us involved and dedicated to Chianina cattle to think of how to grow and progress into the future. In 2020, we realize that “continental” cattle have been in the USA approximately 50 years or 25 generations of up breeding. What is the actual and/or perceived difference of registering cattle by actual percentage of “full blood” DNA left in the cattle (i.e. ACA registry) versus registering cattle by “paper” value (100% breeding value) as all other associations do? When using other breeds protocols of registration mating “purebreds” (7/8 or 87.5% actual DNA) to base cattle the resulting progeny are papered half-blood cattle but truly have only 43.75% actual “full blood” DNA. The next generation is created by mating these paper valued half-blood (43.75% actual) cattle to a papered “purebred” (87.5% actual) results in three-quarter blood paper MAY/JUNE/JULY | CHIANINA JOURNAL |

valued cattle which are 65.625% “full blood” DNA cattle. The next generational mating of this paper valued three-quarter pedigree (actually 65.625% DNA value) to a “Purebred” 7/8 (87.5% DNA value) results in a “Purebred” with an actual DNA value of 76.5625%. To condense this column and thought process, after 22 generations (44 years of generational matings) in most of these associations registry their “Purebred” paper valued cattle could have as little as 34% to 40% actual DNA of the original “full blood” cattle. These cattle are recognized and accepted as “Purebred” 100% valued cattle, as they should be, by the cattle industry adjusted standards. This is a huge advantage in marketability and promoting these breeds to the commercial cattleman especially. By mating “Purebred” cattle to commercial cattle they will have papered half-blood progeny to sale (though possible actual 17% to 20% DNA) versus Chi influenced cattle showing the actual low percentage DNA because of the ACA registry rules. Such mating in some instances could be of less “continental” percentage than ACA composite sired cattle, but the reality is composite sired cattle receive far less acceptance throughout the cattle industry. Again, I do not believe nor suggest these other associations have done anything wrong or subversive. They have, however, adjusted their registration requirements to change with the evolution of cattle production and industry standards to better position their cattle’s marketability. The ACA has not been as innovative nor adaptive to position our cattle for industry acceptance in my opinion. As having served several years as a board representative, I accept my share of responsibility for not progressing ACA cattle toward more acceptance and growth in the cattle industry. It is my opinion the ACA has an opportunity to make some prudent adjustments to

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

position ACA cattle for a more prominent role in the cattle industry. The ACA has assigned a committee to present to the board possible adjustments and procedures to advance and grow the ACA registry. It should be noted that nothing will be proposed that would change any present breeding program or devalue any ACA cattle. Any adjustments proposed would need to bring the ACA cattle and registrations more into alignment with present day industry standards of acceptance. One possibility would be to give the American Purebred 100% breeding value just as other breeds have given their purebreds to generate papered half-blood cattle when mated with base cattle. Another component may need to be introduced to better service and represent lower (actual) percentage Chi-influenced cattle (possibly denoted as“ChiStar” composite) and assimilate in a like manner as the Chiangus and Chiford components. The ACA presently has cattle designated as purebred Chiangus and purebred Chifords; but, again, never has given these cattle 100 % breeding value to be able to produce half-blood papered cattle in their own component registry. The cold hard fact is “actual percentage” registration breeding cattle CANNOT BE SUSTAINED as we are realizing lower and lower original DNA percentages. The other breeds have the same scenario of lower and lower actual percentage of original DNA blood in their cattle, but they are way ahead of us in adjusting to industry standards and acceptance by presenting their purebred cattle with 100 % papered value. My hope is to have given you things to ponder and possibly someone reading this column will be able to contribute ideas to advancing the ACA registry. Although making changes is initially tough to do, I strongly feel we must make some adjustments to better position the ACA for the future.

ver the past few weeks, we have all felt the impact of the COVID-19 uncertainty. Being in Michigan, a state under shutdown, youth and their families are deeply concerned about our local shows and fairs. However, in these times of doubt, we need to come together and reflect. While we all love to get out of the house and off the farm, we need to stay safe. We do not know what will happen in the coming months; it is out of our control. What we do control is our attitude. We can choose to keep our heads up and remain positive. We can choose to continue working with our livestock, despite missing a few shows. We can choose to still gain the valuable skills of leadership, perseverance and hope that our projects teach us. This we can control. We also control our industry’s perception. The agricultural community we have built is strong. Even though we cannot meet for shows and events right now, this is not forever. Whether we are counties or states apart, we are all sharing a similar experience. Fortunately, we have begun adapting to these conditions that we have been subjected to. While it is not a replacement for the live show experience, online shows have developed, encouraging youth to not give up on their projects. Additionally, we are able to connect with each other through the use of social media. We can still talk to our friends and post pictures of our lives. While times are unclear, we have built our resilient community to persevere. I challenge everyone to not be deterred by the current situation. Take this time to advance yourself. Now is your time. If you want to improve your showmanship skills, go out and practice. Wash your calves and work on them as if you are going to a show this weekend. If you want to win Quiz Bowl at Nationals, go and study. This does not just apply to the cattle industry. If you want to improve your math or reading skills, go do it. Play outside with your siblings and play games with your family. Take the time to call your relatives. This is your time; life is not on pause. Yes, some of us may be limited on what we can do, but we can still enjoy life. Lastly, stay safe and stay healthy.

Trying Times

by Allyson Beninga, At Large Director

his spring has been more than eventful, with everything going on surrounding COVID-19. With schools closing, shows being canceled and events being postponed, it’s hard to get geared up for anything with so much uncertainty. Just this past weekend, the Junior Board was supposed to attend YBIC and have our annual board meeting. While we were not able to meet in person; we still did the best we could and had a video conference. It was so refreshing to see my fellow board members faces as we planned for junior nationals. We discussed raffle ticket sales, which are still available for purchase. Please get in contact with a junior board member if you are interested in buying tickets. We have moved the entry deadline for junior nationals to run April

15-May 15, with no late entries after May 15. Finally, we discussed the junior board and officer applications. This summer, we have six available positions on the Junior Board to fill. This is your time to further your involvement in the Chianina breed and grow in this amazing leadership program. Applications can be found on the American Junior Chianina Board of Director’s Facebook page and the AJCA tab on the ACA website. As we get ready to tackle this summer, my heart goes out to all of you. I know this time is unsettling and you are giving up a lot. Reach out to your fellow friends, spend time with your cattle and appreciate the extra time with your family. I wish you all good health and safety. Let’s gear up for Livin’ on Lima Time!

Gearing up for Lima

by Taylor Pinkerton, Northeast Director

i everyone! My name is Taylor Pinkerton and I am currently serving as your Northeast Director on the junior board. I have been spending the past few weeks at home working heifers for Junior Nationals and doing schoolwork. As COVID-19 sweeps throughout the country and many of us are homebound, the uncertainty of what the next few months will hold in terms of cattle shows and events looms overhead. We hope that everyone is staying positive and continuing to prepare for Junior Nationals. Despite the current situation, we are still planning on hosting the 2020 Livin’ on Lima Time Junior Nationals. Throughout the next few months, we will be working in accordance with the state and local officials to make sure that all exhibitors can stay safe and healthy, all while exhibiting cattle

and having fun. As COVID-19 precautions progress, we will be updating all our exhibitors with the latest news we have. Be sure to check our Facebook page to stay up to date. We hope that everyone is staying positive and healthy! I look forward to seeing you in Lima!

t’s FINALLY feeling like spring around home. Calving is in full swing; the grass is green, and the rain has let up. I can only hope the rain returns when we need it in the coming months! There is no question a lot of chaos is happening around us right now. For most parents, there is much uncertainty about if or when our kids will be going back to school. We’re feeling a lot of emotions, questioning if certain summer shows will still take place, and all this while still attempting to balance careers, housework and chores. The list goes on. Not to mention, parents with kids in Pre-K thru 12th grade are now homeschooling…I saw a post a few days ago that really made me rethink things. “You have a choice on how to handle and respond to everything going on. You can choose to respond negatively, or you can look at the positive in this all.” This just spoke to me. I spent over 100 nights in a hotel last year traveling for work. Although I love my job, getting to spend so many more nights at home this year, with my kids, is priceless. I wouldn’t trade it for anything, and I hope everyone reading can cherish the family time like I do. The Auxiliary is excited for what’s to come. We’ve worked hard to develop a scholarship for students who have graduated high school and are either in college, pursuing a BS, MS or PhD, or enrolled in a trade school. The scholarship is now available at chicattle.org under the Auxiliary tab. We will continue to award our graduating senior scholarship, as we have for so many years. We strongly recommend each eligible senior to apply. Our ACA Queen, Jillian Bryant, and ACA Princess, Cheyenne Kiser, are closing in on their year of service with the ACA. I speak for everyone when I say, THANK YOU! You ladies have done an amazing job working so well together, being professional and influential. The Auxiliary wishes you each much luck and success moving forward in life. If you’re interested in applying to serve as the ACA Queen or Princess yourself, contact me for specifics. The deadline to apply is May 15th. Feel free to email me at kelseyculpevans@gmail.com or call (502) 662-2642. I look forward to connecting with everyone this summer. Stay safe and healthy! God Bless ~Kelsey

A Word from our National Queen My name is Jillian Bryant and I am the 20192020 ACA Queen. Serving as Queen this year has truly been the experience of a lifetime. I’ve made so many connections and have had amazing opportunities presented to me by being able to travel to different shows and interact with our breeders. For that, I am so grateful for the experience. I’m also very thankful for Heather Counts, The Culp/Evans family, my family, and everyone associated with the ACA. I have truly had the time of my life because of all of you and have made so many new friends as well. This title is truly more than a crown and sash, it is a great leadership opportunity as well. For that, I am so grateful. ~ Jillian

Multi-Generation Registration Discount Program

Do you have calves to register, but have neglected to get their ancestors registered? Here’s your chance to catch up on those back generations at a reduced rate. From now until Aug. 31, 2020, the ACA is offering a reduced rate on registering older generations when submitting a current calf registration. The current calf will be charged at its normal rate, but any generations back will be just $25! That’s a savings of $20/head on any and all generations after the calf, females or bulls. Take advantage of this special to catch up on those missing registrations and get your herd caught up. Be sure to call Jennifer or Cheryl at the office to take advantage of this special.

Important Registration Reminders

ACA All-American Program Changes

At the spring board meeting, the ACA board of directors made the following updates to the ACA All-American Program, effective with the 2020-2021 show season. • The minimum number of shows required to qualify was lowered to two shows (from the previous three). However the maximum number of point shows used to tally points will remain at five. This applies to both the open and junior programs.

Egg Extravaganza Moved to Louisville

SHOW RESULTS

National Western Stock Show

Jan. 20, 2020 Junior Show Judge: Jim Bloomberg • Open Show Judge: Wayne & Barb Ohlrichs

onday, January 20 dawned bright, clear and cool. Cattle began lining up outside the Coliseum early that morning, soaking up the sunshine. ACA Queen, Jillian Bryant, from Fulton, Missouri, and ACA Princess, Cheyenne Kiser, from Morningview, Kentucky, made the trip to Denver to assist with the show, distribute awards, greet and congratulate exhibitors, breeders, Chi enthusiasts and promote our breed. The Junior Show at the 2020 National Western Junior was, once again, a combined event, in which Chianina and Chiangus heifers showed together. Jim Bloomberg, from Berwick, Ill. judged the event with 34 heifers from 13 states participating. Bloomberg consistently found structurally correct, maternal, sound-moving females to head the classes paraded before him. The eventual Grand Champion Female was the Early Spring Yearling Champion, a bred and owned entry exhibited by Sara Sullivan of Dunlap, Iowa. JSUL Who Dat Steiner 8266F ET was sired by ASHW Who Da Man and is 15.1% Chianina. “Steiner” was a beautifully constructed, jet necked, deep ribbed, sound moving female that was a popular champion throughout her show career. Judge Bloomberg selected the Late Spring Yearling Champion,

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

exhibited by Keagan Steak of Woodstock, Minn., as the Reserve Grand Champion. Keagan’s entry, DUNK MW Lucy 807F ET was sired by BMW Onset and is 8.9% Chianina. Keagan had successfully campaigned “Lucy” for an entire year and did a tremendous job exhibiting a heifer that was exponentially bigger (and heavier) than he. Wayne and Barb Ohlrichs from Nebraska teamed up to judge the open cattle. In the Chiangus show, they selected Westport, Ind. native, Bailey Tomson’s popular female BMW YNot Finesse 424F ET as the Grand Champion. “Y Not Finesse” is 12.8% Chianina; she’s sired by EXAR Classen 1422B, and out of Winegardner’s venerable Talmo-bred cow TR/TKM Y Not PCA. She previously was selected as the Late Spring Yearling Champion. Following Bailey Tomson to the backdrop was another Winegardner bred female, “BMW Ace 502G ET”, also sired by EXAR Classen and out of their reliable MS Rockn Ace 36U cow. Thomas Willis from Alderson, W.Va., exhibited the May 2, 2019 Summer Heifer Calf. An exceptionally strong Chiangus Bull Show followed, with Katy Satree of Montague, Texas scoring a double knock-out with both the

National Western Stock Show Grand and Reserve Grand Champions. The reigning national champion, DAJS The Fixer 132, a 12.6% June 16, 2018 son of DAJS Fire Storm, continued his winning streak, and was led to the backdrop by Katy’s mother, Jane. Jane was busy that day, as she also exhibited the Reserve Grand Champion bull, DAJS Black Out 93. This May 2, 2019 Summer Calf is sired by DAJS Special Effects 044, and is 9.9% Chianina. In the Chianina female show, Sara Sullivan repeated her junior show win with JSUL Who Dat Steiner 8266F ET. Sara had a good day as her Late Junior Heifer Calf Champion, JSUL Who Dat Darling 902G ET, was selected as the Reserve Grand Champion Female. Sired by the popular Angus bull Colburn Primo 5153, she was out of a Who Da Man X Heat Seeker dam. (For those who missed it, Barb’s speech just prior to the selection of the grand champion heifer was one of the most heartfelt and poignant that I’d ever heard.)

In the Chianina bull show, Justin Tracy from Wellfleet, Neb., made it a “three-peat” by exhibiting the Grand Champion. TRAC Enabler 850F, sired by MEFC Unanimous, and a full sib to TRAC Fetish (the 2019 Denver champion) was led to the backdrop. BCR Guts Dinero PCM, a January 12, 2019 calf, was exhibited by Mia Encinias of Moriarty, N.M., and was selected as Reserve Grand Champion. Heather Counts runs a tight ship and coordinates an efficient show. Heather and the junior board checked in cattle and distributed exhibitor numbers on Saturday and Dustin Hurlbut verified tattoos. Afterwards, Heather broke classes and emailed the program to the printer for duplicating. Dustin Hurlbut took a break from staffing the ACA booth in the Yards and weighed all of the cattle on show day. Congratulations to all of the exhibitors who showed the cattle, and to the breeders who planned the matings and bred the cattle.

SHOW RESULTS

Ft. Worth Stock Show

Jan. 31, 2020

he shows in Fort Worth were exceptionally strong. Taylor Graham (an alumnus of the American Junior Chianina Association) sorted twenty-five heifers in the Junior Show. Maddie Smith, Athens, TX, exhibited the Grand Champion heifer, TSSC AGRF Busy Lady 98G ET 1CM. “Busy Lady” is sired by SAV Bismarck 5682. HIGG Felina 830F 2CA, exhibited by Baylor Johnson, and bred by Higgins Farms, was selected as Reserve Grand Champion. “Felina” is a Clockwork X Remedy / TR Flash of Talmo that checks in at 23.37% Chianina blood. Tyler Cates, Modoc, Indiana, judged the open Chianina and Chiangus shows. Thirteen Chiangus heifers were exhibited, with HIGG Felina 830F (the Reserve Grand female in the junior show) being slapped as Grand Champion. WLK Miss Me 30G, sired by Style, was Reserve Grand Champion. She was exhibited by Reagan Amos, Gentry, AR. Katy Satree exhibited both the Grand and Reserve Grand Champion Chiangus Bulls. DAJS The Fixer 132 2CA, completed his triple crown sweep (NAILE, NWSS, FWSS). This popular homebred champion is sired by DAJH Fire Storm. (“The Fixer” is the fifth generation to carry the DAJS prefix.) DAJS Black Out 93, a May, 2019 calf, sired by DAJS Special Effects 044, followed his stall mate to the backdrop as Reserve Grand Champion. Black Out is an exceptionally stout featured, big footed, structurally correct sire prospect with extra body depth. (Note: A careful review of the pedigrees of these two bulls reveals that DAJS Kate 6240, the maternal grand dam of “Black Out” is also the dam of the champion bull, “The Fixer.” That cow needs to be flushed!) Twenty-eight Chianina heifers were exhibited. DUNK Ace 901G ET 1CM was slapped as Grand Champion. Owned by

(Unyielding was awarded the Show Bull of the year at the 2019 NAILE.) Reserve Grand Champion was Unyielding’s paternal brother, DAJH Ghostbuster 546 2CM, a May calf, also sired by Unstoppable. As if exhibiting both the Grand and Reserve Grand Champion bulls in both the Chiangus and Chianina shows wasn’t memorable enough, Sam Rucker presented Katy Satree with an engagement ring. Congratulations and best wishes to Katy, Sam, and their families.

American Chianina Association – University of Illinois Sire Test 2020

he Chianina sire evaluation is underway at the University of Illinois. The test is being conducted at the Dixon Springs Agriculture Center in Simpson, IL. There were 260 cows synchronized for this project with 247 cows bred by timed AI on December 12. Pregnancy diagnosis was conducted in late January. The conception rate for the project ranged from 31.6% to 65.5% with an average for the Chianina sire test of 50.6%. The cows are now grazing Tall fescue pastures and are due on September 20. However, as is typical with fall-calving cows in fescue country, we expect 5-6 day shorter gestation and will likely have some cows calve early September. Following

weaning, the calves will be shipped to the Beef and Sheep Field Laboratory in Urbana, IL. The calves will be fed on GrowSafe to enable individual feed intake collection. The calves will be slaughtered at Tyson in Joslin, IL in December, 2021. Data collection will begin at birth and will include birth date, gestation length, birth weight, calving ease score, sex, color, horn/poll/scur status, weaning weight, docility, feedlot ADG, feedlot DMI, feed efficiency, yearling weight, final weight, hot carcass weight, backfat, ribeye area, KPH (kidney, pelvic, heart fat), yield grade, marbling and quality grade.

What is an ideal cow?

What metrics do we use to determine the ideal cow?

by Dr. Dan Shike, Associate Professor of Animal Science, University of Illinois

ypically, beef producers have focused on output traits that can be measured to determine which cows are the “best.” The easiest of these traits to “see” and to measure is size. We can weigh calves at birth and weaning, and we sell them by the pound. Packer premiums and discounts for quality and yield have clearly driven beef producers to also focus selection pressure on carcass traits. Consequently, genetic progress in growth and carcass merit has been quite impressive. Some would argue that many breeds of cattle of today are nearly a different breed of cattle than they were 50 years ago or even 25 years ago. There is no question that modern genetics offer more revenue generating potential today than ever before. These cattle are reaching heavier weights at slaughter and doing it at a younger age with more quality (marbling) than ever before. Have we selected for a more “ideal” cow? In the October 1995 Angus Journal, the late Harlan Ritchie wrote a column “The Search for the Elusive Optimum Cow.” In the opening paragraph Dr. Ritchie stated “The optimum

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

beef cow is indeed an elusive beast. I have searched for her for more than 20 years, and have come up empty handed. But I believe I’m getting close.” Fast forward 25 years…. Have we found the optimum beef cow? As a nutritionist, it is impossible to have the discussion of an ideal cow without significant focus on efficiency. In an industry that has focused on outputs, consideration has to be given to the input side of the equation. What is the cost of maintaining this high output cow we have selected for? The industry has wrestled with identifying and defining cow efficiency for decades. An often accepted definition would be pounds of calf weaned per cow exposed per unit of feed energy consumed. This would account for inputs (cow feed intake), reproduction (cow has to be pregnant), milk production (influences calf growth prior to weaning) and growth (weaning weight). The only big thing missing is longevity. We don’t just want a cow to wean off a big calf and breed back one time; we want her to do it until she is 10. Honestly though, the biggest challenge with defining the efficient cow is the inability to measure cow intake (especially grazing intake) at the producer level. Consequently, many have selected for certain phenotypes that are believed to represent an “efficient” cow. I have discussed in previous columns the value of matching cows to their environment. Research from the Meat Animal Research Center was reported in 1984 identifying differences in maintenance requirements among breed types. Low output breeds (Angus) were identified as requiring fewer inputs (low maintenance). High output breeds (Simmental) were identified as requiring greater inputs (high maintenance). There are a few key things to keep in mind about this. First, low maintenance does not necessarily mean more efficient. How many times have you heard (or said) that a smaller framed, easy fleshing (fat) cow was efficient? I struggle with the concept that small

and fat is efficient when we are in an industry that is selling pounds. In fact, Thomas Jenkins and Calvin Ferrell, the same researchers that reported maintenance requirement differences between breeds in 1984, later reported in 1994 that there were breed differences in cow efficiency that were resource dependent. In a limited resource environment, the low maintenance breeds (Angus and Red Poll) were the most efficient. However, in an abundant resource environment, the high maintenance breeds (Simmental and Charolais) were the most efficient. Essentially, when feed is limited, low maintenance cattle have greater ability to breed back. When feed resources are abundant, high maintenance cattle have greater genetic potential for milk and growth. I want to draw your attention back to my first paragraph of this column where I said some would argue that some breeds of cattle of today are nearly a different breed of cattle then they were 25 years ago. So how applicable are the findings of these breed differences of 25 years ago? There is no doubt in my mind that the concept still applies. Low output/low maintenance cows will be more efficient in a limited feed environment and high output/high maintenance cows will be more efficient in an abundant resource environment. However, it would be hard to argue that Angus genetics of today are low output. With the selection pressure and genetic improvement for growth and carcass merit that has been observed, Angus genetics rival the continental cattle in many aspects. Thus it is likely that the maintenance requirement has trended up as well. One thing hopefully we could all agree on is that regardless of our environment and “ideal” cow size and type, we all want the most efficient cow. The challenge is with such minimal ability to measure intake on a broad scale we are limited on tools available to improve efficiency. I am a strong believer in the value of visual appraisal and phenotypic selection. I have spent the last 20 years teaching MAY/JUNE/JULY | CHIANINA JOURNAL |

visual appraisal and have had the opportunity to evaluate several cattle shows. I have also spent the last 10 years measuring feed intake in replacement heifers and cows. However, you will have a hard time convincing me you can look at a cow and tell me if she is “efficient.” Now, just because I don’t think every moderate framed, deep bodied, easy fleshing cow is efficient, I definitely am not saying that a big frame, shallow, hard doing cow is efficient. What I am saying is that to truly define efficiency you have to know intake. Our data at the University of Illinois shows that there is considerable variation in intake. Not all “small” cows eat less than the “big” cows. And within groups of cows that are very similar in size and have similar calf weaning weights, we have

observed a 50% difference in intake. And unfortunately, I could not have predicted which ones were which by looking at them. I firmly believe one of the greatest opportunities we have in the beef industry is identifying which cows truly are more efficient and can provide the growth and carcass merit we desire, but do it on less inputs and resources. I must agree with Dr. Ritchie that the optimum or ideal cow is indeed an elusive beast. I believe we continue to get closer, but I am not convinced we have found her yet.

2019-2020 All-Americans T

he ACA All-American program honors superior registered cattle after the completion of each show season. Starting with the 2019-2020 show season, we honor both open division and junior division All-Americans. Only 30 show animals can achieve this status each year in the open division – 9 females and 6 bulls representing two divisions. In the Junior division, only 16 females can achieve this status, 8 for each division. All-American points are awarded according to ACA National Show rules. All Chianina and composites (other than Chiangus) compete in the Chianina division. The remaining, Chiangus , vie for top Chiangus honors. The animal’s registration status determines the All-American division eligibility regardless of the type of show. Chiangus and Chianina points are awarded by age. Open Show Female Divisions are as follows: Division 1 – May 1 to May 31, 2019; Division 2 – March 1 to April 30, 2019; Division 3 – Jan. 1, 2019 to Feb. 28, 2019; Division 4 – Sept. 1, 2018 to Dec. 31, 2018; Division 5 – May 1, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2018; Division 6 – April 1 to April 30, 2018; Division 7 – March 1 to March 31, 2018; Division 8 – Jan. 1, 2018 - Feb. 28, 2018; Division 9 – Sept. 1, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2017. Open Show Bull Divisions are: Division 1 – April 1 to May 31, 2019; Division 2 – Jan. 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019; Division 3 – Sept. 1, 2018 to Dec. 31, 2018; Division 4 – May 1, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2018; Division 5 – Jan. 1, 2018 to April 30, 2018; Division 6 – Jan. 1, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2017. Junior All-American Divisions are: Division 1 – April 1 to May 31, 2019; Division 2 – Jan. 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019; Division 3 – Sept. 1, 2018 to Dec. 31, 2018; Division 4 – May 1, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2018; Division 5 – April 1 to April 30, 2018; Division 6 – March 1, 2018 to March 31, 2018; Division 7 – Jan. 1, 2018 to Feb. 28, 2018; Division 8 – Sept. 1, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2017. Champion and division points are calculated this way: 50 to grand champions, 30 to reserve champions; 20 to division champions and 10 to reserve division champions. The points are then multiplied by the weight of the show. Class points are figured by the futurity system. Shows are weighted as follows: 1X – less than 20 head; 2X – 20 to 39 head; 3X – 40 to 59 head; 4X – 60 to 79 head; 5X – 80 head or more. To qualify, registered ACA cattle must be exhibited in at least three shows during each show season, which runs May 1 – April 30. However, scores from no more than five shows are used. Points for this year were accumulated from the North American International Livestock Exposition, National Western Stock Show, Fort Worth Stock Show, Tennessee State Fair, Ohio State Fair, Kentucky State Fair, World Beef Expo, Indiana State Fair, Kentucky State Show, South Dakota State Fair , Georgia State Show, Chiangus Classic & the National Junior Heifer Show.

GUEST COLUMN

Are you buying genetics or phenotype?

By Bob Weaber, Ph.D. & Megan Rolf, Ph.D., Department of Animal Sciences and Industry, Kansas State University

he overall goal of sire selection for commercial producers (or their seedstock vendors) should be to improve profitability. This requires knowledge of the traits that generate revenue or incur cost within their beef cattle enterprise and a focus on the tools that identify genetic differences in those traits between potential sires. Selection should utilize the most effective and reliable tools available to generate improvement in the traits of interest. Too often, though, seedstock producers and commercial cattlemen get caught up in the web of actual weights, ultrasound measures, and ratios when making a selection decision, which diminishes the effectiveness of that decision. What’s in a phenotype? The answer to this seemingly simple question is ‘Everything and nothing.’ This statement is more than just hyperbole. It illustrates the core challenge we face when looking at an individual animal’s phenotype. That production record includes valuable information about the animal’s genetic potential, but only when interpreted in the context of its performance relative to its contemporaries, or other animals raised in the same environment that had the same opportunity to perform. Outside this context, it provides little to no useful information for selection. High levels of performance are generally indicative of nutrient rich environments, and low performance nutrient poor environments. The poor predictive power of actual phenotypes to inform genetic selection decisions was the motivation to develop more reliable genetic prediction measures in the form of expected progeny differences (EPD) nearly 50 years ago. The main reason an individual phenotype has little value as a genetic predictor is that the performance record can be dramatically influenced by non-genetic or environmental factors. These non-genetic effects bias our view of the animal’s true genetic merit. These non-genetic effects include things like gender of the calf, age at observation, age of dam, and other factors including nutrition. Environmental effects can alter the phenotypes of two animals with similar genetic merit and make the perform very differently. Conversely, animals with very different genetic potential

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

Figure 1: Diagram depicting the relationship between phenotypes and EPDs. Panel A shows that performance (weights, etc.) are a combination of an animal’s genetic merit and the environment that they exist within. The environmental piece of a phenotype is removed during EPD prediction through appropriate contemporary grouping because environment is inherently invaluable as it is not shared across producers. Panel B shows that EPDs leverage the power of a breed association’s database to combine information from pedigree and performance of relatives, progeny records, records on correlated traits, an animal’s own performance record, and genomic testing, which all contribute to the EPD prediction.

can be managed such that their performance is very similar. If we are truly interested in selecting animals as parents, we should only be concerned with the ‘genetics’ the animal will pass to their offspring, which is not well represented by a phenotype. The objective of buying semen or using a bull is to purchase genetics that will enhance the offspring. Selection based on raw phenotypes such as actual weights or ultrasound scan values places selection pressure not only on the genetic potential of an

animal but also on environmental influences (herd, year, season, management, etc.). If you look at two drastically different management scenarios: 1) forage tested bulls, and 2) high concentrate fed bulls, it would be expected that the concentrate fed bulls would have greater intramuscular fat percentage (IMF). The question remains, are the more desirable IMF scan figures due to genetics or the fact that they received more feed? The reality is that it could be the added feed only, or some combination of added feed and greater genetic potential. In looking only at the phenotypes, we cannot tell the difference. Many producers mistakenly place more emphasis on these raw

measurements than EPD. Raw measurements include the confounded effects of genetics and environment, and consequently, the genetic ability of the animal is unknown. Panel A in figure 1 contains a very simplistic equation describing the phenotype of an animal. P is the phenotype, G is the genetic effect, and E is the environmental effect. In practice, animal breeders use this simple equation to estimate genetic merit by defining groups of animals in such a way that E becomes a constant for that group. The contemporary group of an animal represents animals that were given the same opportunity to perform, which includes similar vaccinations and nutrition. Consider the simple equation of P = G + E and a group of animals that are all managed the same (there is no difference in Figure 2: Performance (height of each bar) is a combination of a bull’s genetic merit environment). We can rearrange the equation a bit and put the (green bars) and the environment in which he is raised (blue bars). Panel A shows a group of 10 bulls in the same contemporary group. Environment is identical within performance of the individual in the context of group: Gi = Pi - Ecg a contemporary group, so differences in performance are due solely to differences where Gi represents the genetic merit of calf i, Pi represents the in genetic merit. In panel B, you can see that EPDs allow us to compare bulls across multiple environments to find those with the most superior genetic merit, regardless of phenotype of calf i, and Ecg is the average performance of the phenotypic performance. The bull with the best phenotype is not always the bull with animals in the contemporary group. Figure 2 panel A illustrates the best genetic merit due to the influence of environment. the phenotypic and genetic differences in a contemporary group of 10 bulls. Note the environmental contribution to the phenotype of each bull is constant. The differences in performance are driven by the underlying differences in genetic potential (green bars of varying height). Thus, any differences observed in phenotype must represent differences in genetic potential, but this comparison can only be made within the contemporary group. It is known that environment varies from one ranch or farm to another, making comparison of genetic potential using phenotypes impossible. The use of contemporary group as a descriptor of environment is the underpinning of every genetic evaluation system. The simplicity of this approach effectively removes environmental effects from an animal’s performance record and allows predictions of genetic merit that are useful across herds and years. The methodology described overcomes the bias that differences in management and nutrition introduce into animal phenotypes. The resulting EPD provide a ‘clean’ estimate of an animal’s relative merit. Consequently, selection based on EPDs, which use information from the contemporary group and the animals’ relative performance corrected for known non-genetic factors (Figure 1, panel B), will provide a more reliable and efficient selection tool. For example, Figure 2 panel B illustrates animals of varying genetic merit and environmental effects (i.e. different contemporary groups) and resulting animal phenotypes. Bulls 1 and 2 in panel B have the same phenotype but got there by different combinations of genetic merit and environment. If you use phenotype to choose between these bulls, you could easily make a bad decision. Similarly, bull 4 phenotypically appears the ‘best’ but his performance is largely driven by the favorable environment in which he was raised. In this case, he has the lowest genetic potential.

Buying genetics or phenotype?…continued EPDs give us the tools necessary to compare these bulls across these vastly different environments and make an informed selection decision. Figure 3 illustrates the expected difference in average progeny performance if we mate bulls 1 and 2 from figure 2 panel B to cows of similar genetic merit. Remember that although these bulls had the same weaning weight phenotype they had a 10 lb difference in EPD. The result of that should be a 10 lb difference in progeny group average performance. The phenotype is what is seen, or measured, such as the actual birth weight or weaning weight. Both genetics and the environment influence these values, and because we are interested in identifying animals based on their potential as parents, the environment should not be included in the tool used to select animals. Furthermore, actual phenotypes (e.g., weights, scan data, etc.) are not comparable from animal to animal since they have not been adjusted for systematic effects such as age of the animal, age of the animal’s dam,

breed composition, etc., nor do they provide any clue as to how much better or worse an animal is genetically compared to others. As breeders we should do our best to collect high quality phenotypes and include those in the appropriate genetic evaluation system with genomics and other sources of data to produce the best EPD and selection indexes possible and those EPDs and indices should be the basis for selection. Phenotypes have immense value in genetic evaluation, but do not have value as selection criteria for animals for traits with published EPD. Continued inclusion of animal phenotypes or adjusted performance records in sale catalogs or other animal listings side-by-side with EPDs does producers a disservice and provides our customers with counterproductive information that enables non-optimal decisions.

New Auct

ion Date

20 years ago, a group of Chianina breeders envisioned an event that would offer elite genetic opportunities to anyone interested, with the goal of not only raising funds for the ACA, but also paying a large “winner takes all” premium to the top placing animals from these genetic packages! In 2002, the culmination of this Egg Extravaganza event took place at the ACA National Show in Louisville where the resulting calves from the elite genetic packages were shown, and the winner of the female and bull divisions took home the prize money of well over $15,000! With the vision of Larry Garrett, the idea of the Egg Extravaganza has been reborn! Dig deep, consider consigning elite genetic packages, team up with fellow breeders to form syndicates that allow you to purchase these top caliber genetics at top dollar prices, and stake your claim for the high dollar prize money in 2022!

Goal: Rules: Sale: Show:

• To raise $150,000-$200,000, with the money raised used to market and promote Chianina cattle, as well as support the junior programs of the AJCA. • Each lot will include 3 embryos of the same mating • Divisions for Chiangus, Chianina & Italian Fullblood • ALL embryos will be DNA tested for parentage; resulting calves must be registered with the ACA & parent verified • All resulting calves must be entered in the 2022 National Show • One pregnancy per lot guaranteed • Egg Extravaganza auction will be held in conjunction with 2020 ACA National Show Events in Louisville, Kentucky in November • Breeders encouraged to create syndicates to increase buying power & create excitement • Embryo packages will start at $3,000 • Egg Extravaganza show will be at the 2022 NAILE, immediately following the National Show • A 3-division show will be offered (Italian Fullblood, Chianina & Chiangus) • Half of the money raised from the sale of embryo packages will be paid back as premiums in the show. • Funds raised from the sale of embryos in each of the 3 divisions will be paid out as premiums in the respective divisions

For more information or to consign embryos, please contact Larry Garrett at 765.969.0154 or Dustin Hurlbut at 605.380.8052 MAY/JUNE/JULY | CHIANINA JOURNAL | 61

INDUSTRY NEWS

Why the “best bull” might not be the best for you By Robert Wells, Ph.D.

bull purchase requires a great deal of thought and effort. This decision will affect ranch economics for years — as long as that bull’s genetics are represented in the herd. If replacements are kept from a particular sire, this influence could extend beyond his own lifetime. It is essential to invest the time needed to make numerous decisions before writing the check for a new bull. Below is an outline of the process you will want to go through before selecting a bull. Start early, in order to give yourself enough time to work through the process. 1. Define your ranch goals and how the new bull will help to meet them. It is difficult for a bull to excel in every trait, and those few that do are too costly for the average commercial cattle producer to buy and use for natural service. Thus, consider how the bull will be used: as a terminal or a maternal sire? Most producers who have herds with fewer than 100 head should concentrate on a terminal operation and plan on buying replacement bulls. Once you have decided how the bull will be used, pick the breed you will use. Then find the individual within the breed that meets your goals. 2. After you have decided what bull breed you will use, do your homework before going to the seller’s ranch. Identify the reputable breeders in your region from whom you might purchase a bull. Request all data and expected progeny differences (EPDs) of the bulls. Develop a spreadsheet to sort the EPD data from each bull. Determine which bulls you should look at in person. I call this process the “judging class on paper.” Consider the individual actual weights, but do not let them alone dictate your final decision. EPDs are more reliable than individual values, as management can have a dramatic impact on individual data. Finally, check to ensure realistic prices are set on the value of the bulls you will consider. Going through this process will

| CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

give you a short list of bulls to phenotypically consider once you arrive on-site. 3. Go in person to evaluate the bulls physically. Only consider the bulls on your short list. Do not deviate from the hard work that you have done before the sale day. Be extremely critical, and do not allow for deformities or structurally incorrect bulls. When judging the bull physically, start at the hooves and legs, then work your way up to the rest of the body. The bull should be sound and have good angles at the fetlock, hocks, shoulder and hip. A bull that has structurally incorrect legs (post-legged, sickle-hocked, etc.) will not last long in the herd and will put those genetics into any replacement heifer you keep out of him. Move the bull around, and make him walk out to ensure he has a smooth, long stride and is not lame. Evaluate him from all angles: front, back and sides. This part is especially difficult with video auctions; because unfortunately, most sale videos are short and they only provide the side perspective. Find the bull that has the most body capacity and is balanced. Likewise, disposition should be evaluated to ensure the bull will be amicable when you handle him. Much planning and preparation should go into the purchase of a new bull. When possible, make a planned decision as to when the bull exits your program, and start the replacement search early. Prior planning will result in a better bull purchase decision that you will not regret in the future. Editor's Note: Wells is a Noble Research Institute livestock consultant.

INDUSTRY NEWS

A Rancher's Guide to Depreciation By Logan Hoffman, Colorado State University Beef Extension Specialist

Depreciating ranch assets gives you a better picture of your financial health.

ost cattle producers are surprised with how much their annual cow-cost truly is. The biggest reason for this is that most producers only factor in their cash costs when calculating annual cow-carrying expense. The top four expenses on any given ranch are feed, labor, depreciation, and pasture rent. The truth is, two out of the top four expenses are often non-cash costs. Not all ranchers pay themselves, and not all factor in depreciation as a real expense on their operation. Let’s focus on the importance of depreciation for ranch managers. So, what is depreciation? The Farm Financial Standards Council states depreciation as “The allocation of the expense that reflects the ‘using up’ of certain business assets employed by the entity.” Many producers would say that it is an exercise strictly used to file taxes, which begs the question; without the IRS would depreciation still exist? The answer is yes because the underlying truth about depreciation is that capital assets (vehicles, machinery, equipment, buildings, and purchased or raised breeding livestock) do not last forever and decrease in value over time regardless of tax situations.

Tax vs. management depreciation Tax depreciation has a much different objective than management depreciation, and thanks to IRS Section 179, qualified business owners can deduct the full expense of certain purchases in the same year the purchase occurred. Although this gives the manager an instant reduction on taxable income for the year, this number can cause the depreciation value, and consequently taxable net farm income, to vary greatly on the Schedule F Profit or Loss from Farming form from year to year. Too many producers view this taxable net income estimate as being their true profit and loss. It is not. Management depreciation, on the other hand, takes a systematic approach to calculate depreciation for the purpose | CHIANINA JOURNAL | MAY/JUNE/JULY

of giving the ranch manager an accurate assessment of net worth and accrual adjusted net income. This approach should be used for business analysis purposes and on a cost-based balance sheet, book method depreciation is recommended. This method simply takes the original purchase price, estimates a salvage value for the asset, then depreciates the value of that asset in proportion to its “useful life” each year until the salvage value is reached. For example, a tractor purchased for $100,000 with a salvage value of $15,000 and a useful life of seven years would depreciate (100,000 – 15,000)/7 years = $12,143 per year for seven years until it has reached its $15,000 salvage value. Breeding livestock are also considered fixed assets that must be depreciated. If a breeding bull, cow, or heifer is purchased, the depreciation method would follow the same scenario as above, adjusting for a recommended five-year useful life and a cull value as the salvage value. Although there is some debate as to how to approach raised breeding stock, we have found the best way to do this is to accumulate the cost of raising the breeding bull or heifer until that animal is then transferred into the breeding stock as a fixed, depreciable asset. That transfer point occurs when the bull breeds a female, or the heifer weans a calf. Until that point, they are considered a current asset that is not depreciated. Once the accumulated cost to raise the animal from birth to the point of transfer is estimated, that number becomes the basis off which the animal is depreciated. For example, a heifer with accumulated expenses from birth until her first weaned calf of $1,500 with a cull value of $750 and a useful life of five years would depreciate (1,500 – 750)/5 years = $150 per year for five years until she has reached the $750 cull value. There are some misconceptions regarding market value appreciation of depreciable assets. For accounting purposes,

A Rancher's Guide to Depreciation…continued the opposite of depreciation is not appreciation. Because depreciation is a set, calculatable figure, even if an asset’s market value increases, its depreciation expense does not change. The fact that the asset may have appreciated in market value only applies when the depreciated asset is sold. The whole premise behind management depreciation is to give the ranch manager a figure for the machinery, equipment, buildings, improvements, and breeding livestock to set aside for replacing assets when they are no longer able to be used. If the manager can include these expenses in their annual

budget, it will prevent them from becoming over-leveraged and increasing their interest expense when the time comes to replace those capital assets. Editor's Note: Hoffman is a Colorado State University Beef Extension specialist. Reprinted with permission from BEEF Magazine. www.beefmagazine.com
