We welcome you to our Second Autumn Bull Sale.

It is with great pleasure to invite prospective buyers to view the 17 quality performance recorded bulls with an age spread of 18 months to 2 years of age. We believe our selected Sires have some of the best genetics currently available. The bulls presented this year are from Baldridge Beast Mode B074, Millah Murrah Paratrooper P15 as well as some of our own home bred bulls that are offspring from Pathfinder Genesis G357 and Pleasant Vale Whitworth M41. The stud commenced in 2018 following several decades of commercial beef farming. We welcomed the first drop of stud calves in the spring of 2018 with 11 calves, closely followed by 6 more calves in the autumn of 2019. Since the establishment of the stud 2 more properties were purchased to allow the expansion of breeding numbers to increase. This has also provided the opportunity for future generations to become involved and a plan for succession farming has begun.

Tolivar Angus has rapidly increased to 110 HBR breeding females by the use of Artificial Insemination and Embryo Transfer programs. We have been able to accelerate genetic gain and the numbers of calves into the Stud herd in a shortened time frame as well as running a commercial herd. Some commercial cows are selected as surrogacy for their maternal traits. Currently 46 stud calves will be born February/ March with 16 embryo calves at the time of writing on the ground from commercial surrogate cows. A further 74 stud calves are due July/August which will include AI, ET and natural matings from our own sires.

Due to the challenging beef market experienced in 2023 we decided to carry on the autumn weaners to finishing and sold all excess autumn calving cows and we increased the spring calving cow herd numbers. We have sold the home property in Riverside which we have resided at for 25 years and commenced the construction of our new home at our farm at Lulworth due to be completed mid 2024. As the Stud breeding female numbers continue to increase we will be reducing our commercial numbers. The cattle are managed under intensive grazing management. All our stock are pasture fed, supplemented with silage and hay when needed which has been harvested from our properties. Our focus at Tolivar Angus is on breeding seedstock that are well suited to the variable Australian climate conditions. We aim to produce animals that not only have great growth, structure and are easy calving, but also have those highly desirable meat eating traits that the Angus cattle breed are renown for. Looking forward to next years Autumn bull sale, we will be presenting sons from Alpine 38 Special S021, Chiltern Park Picaso P9, Sitz Stellar 726D as well as our own home sires.

We appreciate you taking the time to view our catalogue and hope you will be able to attend our sale. The sale will also be available online through Auction Plus. We would like to acknowledge our vets and AI technicians who are a valuable asset to our breeding program. We would also like to acknowledge Josh from Steerzy Vision who has compiled the bull videos and photos. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding our bulls.

Warm Regards

Stud Principal, Colin Hill on behalf of Tolivar Angus

Satisfied customer

“As a breeder of Angus cattle for the store sales in March, I want calves that reach a maximum weight in the shortest time and I believe that the Tolivar bulls I have used go a long way in achieving that.”

Repeat purchaser, Geoff

Sale Information

GUARANTEE

All bulls have been assessed for structural soundness and fertility evaluated. To the best of our knowledge the bulls offered are in sound working order as at the time of sale. If during the next 12 months of purchase the bull is deemed to be infertile or incapable, provided it is not caused by injury or sickness, the vendor agrees to supply the purchaser with a satisfactory replacement, if available, or issue the purchaser with a credit equal to the purchase price minus the salvage value that may be used on the next bull sale. The bull will be assessed by a veterinarian chosen by Tolivar Angus. A claim must be accompanied with a veterinary report.

CATTLE HEALTH

All bulls offered are:

• Tested free of Pestivirus

• Vaccinated according to recommendations with Pestigard, Vibrovax and Ultravac 7 in 1

• Semen tested and morphology assessed by Australian Veterinary Semen Morphology.

• Had their penis and testicles examined by Tas Livestock Service on 19/02/2023.

• Have been drenched with Cydectin pour on Cattle & Red Deer

• All sale bulls have been genomic tested to confirm their genetic ability.

INSPECTION

Bulls will be available for pre-sale inspection as arranged by private appointment until 17th March. Bulls will be available for public viewing on the morning of the sale from 10am. To arrange a time for private viewing, please call Colin Hill on 0418 328 853.

Understanding the TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation (TACE)

What is the TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation?

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation is the genetic evaluation program adopted by Angus Australia for Angus and Angus influenced beef cattle. The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation uses Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) technology to produce Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) of recorded cattle for a range of important production traits (e.g. weight, carcase, fertility).

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation is an international genetic evaluation and includes pedigree, performance and genomic information from the Angus Australia and Angus New Zealand databases, along with selected information from the American and Canadian Angus Associations.

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation utilises a range of genetic evaluation software, including the internationally recognised BLUPF90 family of programs, and BREEDPLAN® beef genetic evaluation analytical software, as developed by the Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit (AGBU), a joint institute of NSW Agriculture and the University of New England, and Meat and Livestock Australia Limited (MLA).

What is an EBV?

An animal’s breeding value can be defined as its genetic merit for each trait. While it is not possible to determine an animal’s true breeding value, it is possible to estimate it. These estimates of an animal’s true breeding value are called EBVs (Estimated Breeding Values).

EBVs are expressed as the difference between an individual animal’s genetics and a historical genetic level (i.e. group of animals) within the TACE genetic evaluation, and are reported in the units in which the measurements are taken.

Using EBVs to Compare the Genetics of Two Animals

TACE EBVs can be used to estimate the expected difference in the genetics of two animals, with the expected difference equating to half the difference in the EBVs of the animals, all other things being equal (e.g. they are joined to the same animal/s).

For example, a bull with a 200 Day Growth EBV of +60 would be expected to produce progeny that are, on average, 10 kg heavier at 200 days of age than a bull with a 200 Day Growth EBV of +40 kg (i.e. 20 kg

difference between the sire’s EBVs, then halved as the sire only contributes half the genetics).

Or similarly, a bull with an IMF EBV of +3.0 would be expected to produce progeny with on average, 1% more intramuscular fat in a 400 kg carcase than a bull with a IMF EBV of +1.0 (i.e. 2% difference between the sire’s EBVs, then halved as the sire only contributes half the genetics).

Using EBVs to Benchmark an Animal’s Genetics with the Breed

EBVs can also be used to benchmark an animal’s genetics relative to the genetics of other Angus or Angus infused animals recorded with Angus Australia.

To benchmark an animal’s genetics relative to other Angus animals, an animal’s EBV can be compared to the EBV reference tables, which provide:

• the breed average EBV

• the percentile bands table

The current breed average EBV is listed on the bottom of each page in this publication, while the current EBV reference tables are included at the end of these introductory notes.

For easy reference, the percentile band in which an animal’s EBV ranks is also published in association with the EBV.

Considering Accuracy

An accuracy value is published with each EBV, and is usually displayed as a percentage value immediately below the EBV.

The accuracy value provides an indication of the reliability of the EBV in estimating the animal’s genetics (or true breeding value), and is an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of the EBV.

EBVs with accuracy values below 50% should be considered as preliminary or of low accuracy, 50-74% as of medium accuracy, 75-90% of medium to high accuracy, and 90% or greater as high accuracy

Description of TACE EBVs

EBVs are calculated for a range of traits within TACE, covering calving ease, growth, fertility, maternal performance, carcase merit, feed efficiency and structural soundness. A description of each EBV included in this publication is provided on the following page.

$A $

$A-L $

Genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined in a typical commercial self replacing herd using Angus bulls. This selection index is not specific to a particular market end-point, but identifies animals that will improve overall net profitability in the majority of commercial, self replacing, grass and grain finishing beef production systems.

Genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined in a typical commercial self replacing herd using Angus bulls. This selection index is not specific to a particular market end-point, but identifies animals that will improve overall net profitability in the majority of commercial, self replacing, grass and grain finishing beef production systems.

The $A-L index is similar to the $A index but is modelled on a production system where feed is surplus to requirements for the majority of the year, or the cost of supplying additional feed when animal feed requirements increase is low.

While the $A aims to maintain mature cow weight, the $A-L does not aim to limit the increase in mature cow weight as there is minimal cost incurred if the feed maintenance requirements of the female breeding herd increase as a result of selection decisions.

Higher selection indexes indicate greater profitability.

recessive genetic conditions

This is information for bull buyers about the recessive genetic conditions, Arthrogryposis Multiplex (AM), Hydrocephalus (NH), Contractural Arachnodactyly (CA) and Developmental Duplications (DD).

Putting undesirable Genetic Recessive Conditions in perspective

All animals, including humans, carry single copies (alleles) of undesirable or “broken” genes. In single copy form, these undesirable alleles usually cause no harm to the individual.

But when animals carry 2 copies of certain undesirable or “broken” alleles it often results in bad consequences. Advances in genomics have facilitated the development of accurate diagnostic tests to enable the identification and management of numerous undesirable or “broken” genes. Angus Australia is proactive in providing its members and their clients with relevant tools and information to assist them in the management of known undesirable genes and our members are leading the industry in their use of this technology.

What are AM, NH, CA and DD?

AM, NH, CA and DD are all recessive conditions caused by “broken” alleles within the DNA of individual animals. When a calf inherits 2 copies of the AM or NH alleles their development is so adversely affected that they will be still-born.

In other cases, such as CA and DD, calves carrying 2 copies of the broken allele may reach full-term. In such cases the animal may either appear relatively normal, or show physical symptoms that affect their health and/or performance.

How are the conditions inherited?

Research in the U.S. and Australia indicates that AM, NH, CA and DD are simply inherited recessive conditions. This means that a single gene (or pair of alleles) controls the condition.

For this mode of inheritance two copies of the undesirable allele need to be present before the condition is seen; in which case you may get an abnormal calf. A more common example of a trait with a simple recessive pattern of inheritance is black and red coat colour.

Animals with only one copy of the undesirable allele (and one copy of the normal form of the allele) appear normal and are known as “carriers”.

What happens when carriers are mated to other animals?

Carriers, will on average, pass the undesirable allele to a random half (50 %) of their progeny.

When a carrier bull and carrier cow is mated, there is a 25% chance that the resultant calf will inherit two normal alleles, a 50% chance that the mating will result in a carrier (i.e. with just 1 copy of the undesirable allele, and a 25% chance that the calf will inherit two copies of the undesirable gene.

If animals tested free of the undesirable gene are mated to carrier animals the condition will not be expressed at all. All calves will appear normal, but approximately half (50%) could be expected to be carriers.

How is the genetic status of animals reported?

DNA-based diagnostic tests have been developed which can be used to determine whether an individual animal is either a carrier or free of the alleles resulting in AM, NH, CA or DD.

Angus Australia uses advanced software to calculate the probability of (untested) animals to being carriers of AM, NH, CA or DD. The software uses the test results of any relatives in the calculations and the probabilities may change as new results for additional animals become available.

The genetic status of animals is being reported using five categories:

AMF

Tested AM free

AMFU Based on Pedigree AM free - Animal has not been tested

AM_% _% probability the animal is an AM carrier

AMC Tested AM-Carrier

AMA AM-Affected

For NH, CA and DD, simply replace AM in the above table with NH, CA or DD.

Registration certificates and the Angus Australia web-database display these codes. This information is displayed on the animal details page and can be accessed by conducting an “Database Search” from the Angus Australia website or looking up individual animals listed in a sale catalogue.

Implications for Commercial Producers

Your decision on the importance of the genetic condition status of replacement bulls should depend on the genetics of your cow herd (which bulls you previously used) and whether some female progeny will be retained or sold as breeders.

Most Angus breeders are proactive and transparent in managing known genetic conditions, endeavouring to provide the best information available. The greatest risk to the commercial sector from undesirable genetic recessive conditions comes from unregistered bulls with unknown genetic background. The genetic condition testing that Angus Australia seedstock producers are investing in provides buyers of registered Angus bulls with unmatched quality assurance.
