Greetings from Silver Spur Salers and ELS Livestock, Welcome to our 16th Silver Genetics Production Sale. We have a had a few minor changes over the last year with Scott, Stacy, Landon and Easton taking over the Red Angus herd and dividing up the Salers cows. With that, we are still offering all the same genetics and will continue to work together very closely on the cattle breeding and the sale offering. The bull offering is the same as we have had in the past with Salers, Red Angus and Composites. They have had a better winter to grow this year although we were behind getting the bulls started so they were not tested. We will continue the test in the future. They were fed a ration of corn, distillers, corn silage and ground hay. The homozygous black tests are being processed so those will be available on our website and Facebook page soon. The cow offering is a high quality set of young females. They will all have calves on the side by sale date sired by AI sires. We would be keeping these pairs but our numbers are just too high. The Salers breed is currently updating their EPDs by moving towards genetically enhanced EPDs. The following was written by Will MacDonald, long time Salers breeder of North Dakota, explaining the changes that are currently taking place. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us. “Over the past 25 years, Expected Progeny Differences (EPD’s) have come to be the primary tool that producers use to compare weight performance and other measureable traits between individual animals in order to predict which animals are going to best satisfy the goals of the producer’s breeding program. The advent of genomics (using DNA information to identify some of the actual genes in an animal’s makeup and incorporating that information into EPD’s) has brought major changes to the EPD landscape for much of the beef industry over the past 10 years. Up to this time, Salers cattle have not had genomic data incorporated into their EPD’s. That is about to change within the next few months. A LEAP AHEAD Not only will genomic data be incorporated into Salers EPD’s where available, but the Salers breed is joining a group called International Genetic Solutions (IGS). IGS is a consortium of breeds including Simmental, Red Angus, Gelbvieh, Limousin, Salers, South Devon and others. This organization will be calculating EPD’s for all of these breeds using a multibreed genetic evaluation model. What does this mean for Salers EPD’s in the future? One major change will be that Salers EPD’s will be directly comparable to other breeds also evaluated in this multi-breed model. When you look at Simmental, Red Angus, Gelbvieh or Salers EPD’s, you will be looking at directly comparable numbers. It should also be especially useful in improving the accuracy and usefulness of EPD’s for composite cattle (Optimizers). Finally, in the past, new data submitted to the Salers database has been used to recalculate EPD’s once per year. That will now occur on a weekly basis in the IGS system. You can learn more by visiting the International Genetic Solutions website. A BRIEF STEP BACKWARDS As a result of transitioning to the new system there has been no new genetic evaluation done for Salers cattle for the past year. What that means is that the EPD’s in this sale catalog are only pedigree estimates, meaning that the EPD’s were arrived at by adding the EPD’s of the parents together and dividing by 2. The birth weights and weaning weights of each individual bull have not been incorporated into the EPD’s of that animal as they have been in the past. This will result in lower accuracy for birth weight, weaning weight and yearling weight EPD’s provided in this catalog as compared to years past. My primary concern with this is that if you are going to be breeding first calf heifers you need to look at the birth weight of the bull and put more emphasis on that as opposed to the Birth Wt EPD than you would need to in years past. We will of course be very happy to help you with your selections and answer any questions that you might have. We look forward to leaping ahead to the new EPD system by next year!” Sincerely, David and Janelle Frueh Scott, Stacy, Landon and Easton Liebhart 1. Inspection of cattle. All cattle will be available for inspection at the sale site beginning Saturday, March 21, 2020 at 12 pm. Prior to sale date cattle may be viewed at the ranch. 2. Terms. Cash.

Missouri Red Angus Association Fescue Belt Certified Program Announced The Missouri Red Angus Associations Board of Directors recently approved the “Missouri Red Angus Association Fescue Belt Certified” program as an initiative designed to promote Missouri Red Angus members genetics.

Official MORAA Fescue Belt Certification Logo

Many of us who live in the “fescue belt” have experienced the problems associated with importing newly purchased cattle into our environment. What we’ve seen is a significant percentage of cattle that have not been raised on fescue struggle to perform after being imported onto this “grass we love to hate”. Some animals eventually overcome this issue, but many will not and will eventually be culled from the herd.

Fescue toxicity results from toxins called ergot alkaloids, which are produced by a fungus called endophyte that grows within the fescue plant. Cattle experiencing fescue toxicosis may exhibit rough hair coats, heat stress, suppressed appetite, poor growth rates, reduced reproductive performance, and in some cases lost tail switches or even hooves. The decreased animal performance seen during the “summer slump” of cool-season pastures is made even worse by these toxic effects of fescue. Research on the subject of fescue management has been done for years. Several strategies can be used to mitigate the toxic effects of fescue, including removal or suppression of seedheads,overseeding of pastures with legumes or other forages, and good mineral supplementation programs. However, fescue remains a serious challenge. The USDA estimates fescue toxicosis costs the U.S. beef industry an estimated $600 million to $1 billion annually in lost revenue because of reduced reproductive and growth rates in cattle herds. Missouri beef producers recognize the value of selecting cattle that are adapted to fescue. In 2016, University of Missouri Extension Geneticist, Dr. Jared Decker, was awarded a $3 million grant from the USDA to evaluate genetic differences in cattle among regions. Decker and his colleagues are utilizing DNA markers to study the interactions between cattle DNA and the environment. The study is focused on DNA, hair shedding, and tall fescue forage. When complete, the data will be used to design region-specific EPDs. The entire state of Missouri is situated within the fescue belt. Since fescue was introduced into our region, Missourians have built their herds retaining only genetics that have proven to be “fescue tolerant.” When looking for Red Angus genetics, look for the MORAA FBC logo & cattle that have “Bred-in Fescue Tolerance.”
