The Hereford breed captured plenty of attention at the second annual Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City. More than 700 Hereford cattle were presented over the four-day event, and the bald-faced breed was in demand in the sale ring, topping the breed sale averages for the week. See the champions from the junior, bull, female and pen shows and read about the pace-setting sale in the 26 pages of Congress coverage.

World’s Perspective

Setting the Pace

by Joe Rickabaugh

Herefords blaze an envious path to start 2022.

Joe Rickabaugh is the director of field management and seedstock marketing for Hereford World. He can be reached at jrick@hereford.org.

Herefords wasted no time making a splash as the calendar turned. Breeders, exhibitors, sale consignors and buyers created ripples from Oklahoma to Colorado and beyond. Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City set the stage for a remarkable January, where more than 700 head of Hereford cattle were exhibited. The sheer number was impressive, but so was the depth and breadth of competition. The National Hereford Sale — Hereford Night in OKC — was spectacular! Buyers spent just over $800,000 on the stellar offering with bulls averaging $29,222 and females crossing the block to an average of $13,360. The gavel also fell on an impressive gross for the frozen genetics offered in the Hereford Eve in OKC sale. When the dust cleared, Herefords led the way for breed sale averages at Cattlemen’s Congress. That is a testament to the national sale consignors and buyers. Leaf through the pages of this issue for full coverage of this outstanding event.

Denver — new venue for the yards

The National Western Stock Show in Denver proved to be a strong follow-up for Herefords barely a week later. Quality was impressive on the hill for the junior and open shows. The Hereford sale in Denver also enjoyed a strong crowd and a solid average. Quality was also on display from exhibitors of pens and carloads who enjoyed the impressive, revamped Denver yards. Both exhibitors and spectators welcomed this brand-new venue for the historic event.

Bull sales start fast

To say Hereford sales started the year strong would be an understatement. In fact, when you combine the national sale with the first three bull sales of the season, the results are a marvel to behold.

4

| March 2022

The national sale average was $10,000 more than last year with one less lot. The first bull sale of the season upped its average $1,355 while selling eight more bulls. The average at the second sale of the season was up $3,389 while selling six fewer bulls. The average at the third sale of the year was down $330, but 14 more bulls were sold, and this was in a very dry part of the country. More commercial interest is being witnessed as producers pursue more heterosis and total pounds. Demand for Hereford genetics looks promising for the spring of 2022. By the time you receive this issue, quite a few more Hereford sales will be in the books for the spring 2022 season. Hopefully, you have taken time in February to keep up with the sale results as they are posted on the AHA website. To find them, go to Hereford.org and find the “Marketing” tab on the website. Click on “Marketing” and then scroll to “Sale Results.” You can monitor sales at this location as they occur throughout the spring season. American Hereford Association (AHA) fieldmen will also post sale coverage to their individual Facebook pages, and of course, sale results will be published in Hereford World.

New managing editor hired

I’m excited to announce Sydnee Shive will join Hereford World as its new managing editor in early June, once she graduates from Kansas State University. Sydnee already helped us at the events in Oklahoma City and Denver. You can see her photographic talent on the cover of this issue. Her writing is also stellar. In the mean time, Wes Ishmael and Katie Miller will guide the Hereford World ship with the help of the HPI team. Here’s hoping your spring is a great one as we move through the sale season.

Breed Focus

Expanding Opportunity

by Jack Ward

More commercial producers discover solutions provided by Hereford genetics.

Jack Ward is the executive vice president of the American Hereford Association. He can be reached at jward@hereford.org.

Early-season Hereford bull sales have been fantastic with continued and renewed interest in Hereford genetics by commercial cow-calf producers. Challenges spawned by drought, escalating input costs and volatile markets are encouraging commercial cattle producers to re-evaluate the importance of heterosis and its direct value to weights, health and efficiency. They also are taking a fresh look at the value of heterosis to the maternal side of the equation. Research proves that heterosis has its biggest impact and most value when it comes to traits that are more lowly heritable, such as fertility and longevity. That is exactly where a good Hereford bull can have the most impact.

Hereford-built baldies gain momentum

Moreover, the F1 baldy female built with Hereford genetics is proving to be the cow of choice for many commercial operations across the nation. Reasons for the choice continue to be documented over time by producers and research institutions, including projects supported by the American Hereford Association (AHA) at Circle A Ranch in Missouri, Harris Ranch in California, Simplot Ranches in the Northwest and Amana Farms in Iowa. Research data underscores the undeniable advantages in foundational traits of economic importance, such as fertility, longevity, efficiency, gain and health. These traits are crucial to producer profitability. They are also key to cattle and beef being viewed by consumers as a solution to environmental sustainability rather than a challenge. The Hereford F1 baldy’s added value shone through as producers built back from the most recent widespread, longterm drought. Undoubtedly, momentum for them will gain as producers manage through current drought in various parts of the country.

6

| March 2022

Plus, Hereford genetics and baldy females meet the domestic and international demand for highquality beef.

Hereford genetics are a logical consumer choice

Domestic consumer beef demand last year was the strongest in three decades, according to CattleFax. As time goes on, consumers are demanding more than quality and a reliable eating experience. More of them want to know their consumption choices contribute to environmental and societal sustainability. Documented advantages in efficiency, fertility and longevity make Hereford genetics and Hereford-influenced cattle a logical consumer choice.

Choose the future

I encourage you to study the genetics, evaluate the expected progeny difference (EPD) profiles and visit with owners of the bulls you will find in the annual AI book that is a part of this Hereford World issue. You will find opportunities that fit the unique goals and needs of your operation. Supply and demand fundamentals favor cattle market strength over the next few years. Part of that has to do with fewer cattle numbers as the national beef cow herd contracts. Opportunity for Hereford genetics will grow even more when the herd begins to expand once again. Producer demand for documented genetics and verified genetic data will continue to grow. Make selections that will benefit your customers for years to come. That is the true role of seedstock producers. If Hereford breeders remain committed to this goal, then more commercial cattlemen will continue to “Come Home to Hereford.” This is always a very exciting time of year with calving in full swing and bull sale season off and running. Enjoy. Hereford.org

Performance Matters

Multi-trait Excellence

by Shane Bedwell

Maintain efficiency focus.

Shane Bedwell is the chief operating officer and director of breed improvement of the American Hereford Association. He can be reached at sbedwell@hereford.org.

Bull sale season is in full swing, and the reports to this point have been overwhelmingly positive for Hereford demand and interest. That is a compliment to the diligent work of Hereford breeders to blend what I view as both the art and the science of breeding cattle. Breeding cattle requires disciplined belief in which traits are important to your customers, but it is also much more than just firing up the mating predictor and stacking numbers. It’s knowing the cow families and the cow families behind them. Do these cows truly have the maternal instincts and mothering ability when it’s bitter cold? Is their structure right, are the feet right, is their disposition right? There is a host of critical selection criteria that matter to the bottom line. That’s the science side of the equation. However, there are also times when your gut and years of experience lead you to make a particular mating. That’s art. The Hereford breed is fortunate to have so many breeders who are masters of blending both the science and the art.

are many other bulls that will likely make the list in years to come and/or have unique assets to offer the breed. Looking at this group as a whole, it is really impressive to see where their traits rank from a breed percentile standpoint. To say progress has been made would be an understatement. Whether or not there is a bull on this list that fits your unique breeding goals, the point is to always be seeking genetics that can drive your program and the breed forward.

Focus on breed strengths

As impressive as the top-10 list is, I did highlight a couple of traits that I believe need attention. Both Dry Matter Intake (DMI) and Mature Cow Weight (MCW) are trending in a direction that, in my opinion, gets away from maternal efficiency, which is the reason so many commercial producers have chosen to “Come Home to Hereford.” Undoubtedly, there are other reasons they choose Hereford, but we need to maintain disciplined focus on staying efficient! Increasing growth adds pounds, and pounds are dollars. But the cost of these pounds is what is important to measure. Both DMI and MCW give you traits to use when adding more growth. Honestly, it is hard to find cattle that bend these curves, but we have the traits that you can use to track progress and measure against. Submitting phenotypes for these important traits also helps find the genetics that can bend the curve. All in all, this report card is really impressive. Keep making the cattle better, and keep them sound.

It is truly impressive to look through this list of bulls and see the multi-trait excellence they offer. No matter what part of the business you are in, you can find traits or reasons why these bulls made the top-10 list. There are trait leaders, dominant winners and exceptional female sires.

Submit JNHE steer DNA

Prior to entering, steer exhibitors at the 2022 Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) in Louisville, Ky., must submit DNA for their steers. We strongly encourage exhibitors submit their DNA sample(s) to the lab before April 1 to allow ample time for the results to be received by AHA. All steers showing at the JNHE must be registered by the AHA, be out out of a registered sire and dam and have a DNA profile on file at the AHA at the time of entry. No steer certificates will be accepted, only registration papers. Request a DNA test kit through your MyHerd account, or send an email to aha@hereford.org. Make sure to include your member number, the animal’s registration number and the reason for DNA testing in the email. Please plan ahead to ensure registrations and transfers are handled before the May 15 (early bird) and June 1 JNHE entry deadlines.

DNA Sample Types — Tips and Tricks

by Laura Loschke

DNA testing provides vital and important information, which helps drive beef cattle improvement. The American Hereford Association (AHA) requires all Hereford bulls born after Jan. 1, 2011, to be DNA typed before their progeny can be registered. Donor dams must also be DNA tested before their embryo transfer (ET) calves can be registered. Samples should be sent with the corresponding DNA submission form for the specific animal. These forms must be obtained from the AHA before sending the samples to the lab. DNA requests can be made online through MyHerd or by calling or emailing the AHA Customer Service Department. If samples are received at the lab without the proper AHA paperwork, the samples will not be processed.

What’s your type?

The AHA allows several different sample types for testing. To ensure you are using the best practices when gathering and submitting your DNA samples, follow these tips for each sample type.

Hair When using a hair sample, collect the hair from the tail switch of the animal. Be sure to pull the hair sample; do not cut it. Each sample should include

DNA test prices

Blood Card

The American Hereford Association was recently informed that NEOGEN will be increasing prices on genomic tests. Because of the increase in costs, the AHA Board of Directors recently voted to increase the cost of the AHA profile tests by $4 starting April 1, 2022. Since the AHA does weekly evaluations, the genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs) have the ability to change frequently. Therefore, they are no longer printed on the DNA results statement. However, the GE-EPDs can be found online through MyHerd or the EPD/Animal Search function. Please keep in mind, GE-EPDs will not appear until two weeks after the DNA results are received at the AHA. For example, if a DNA result is received at the AHA on March 1, 2022, the GE-EPDs wouldn’t show until March 14, 2022.

Blood cards may be purchased from AHA for 50 cents per card — minimum order of 10. Blood can be drawn from any method deemed desirable. Be sure to fill the blotting paper section of the blood card with blood and saturate it just enough to fill the circle, but not enough to make the card soggy. Do not over-saturate the blood card, as this could cause a “bad sample” result from the lab. Insert the blood card lid into the top slit, so there is room for air to get in. Leave the card in a clean area to dry at room temperature. Do not use a heating source for drying. Once dry, open the lid and insert it into the bottom slit for storage or shipping.

80–100 hairs. This may seem like a lot, but hair is easily broken, may not have a good follicle attached or could be contaminated. To make sure the lab can get a result, send 80–100 hairs. Try to make sure the hair is clean and not contaminated with manure, mud, bodily fluids, etc. When using hair samples for DNA testing, it is best to wait until the animal is at least weaning age before collecting the sample. Hair samples taken from young calves often do not have enough follicles and results may be inconclusive.

| March 2022

Hereford.org


Blood card samples can be collected at any age, so these are a better option when testing young calves. Please do not use a blood sample to DNA test an animal that is or was a twin. The blood samples will fail because the calves share blood in utero.

Semen Straw Semen straws can be used as a DNA sample for bulls. They can be room temperature and do not need to be refrigerated when shipped. However, semen straws break easily. When shipping, place the straw in something protective. An ink pen easily keeps the straws from breaking. Simply pop open an ink pen, pull the ink tube out, and slide the semen straw down in the pen. The hard plastic of the pen provides protection for the straw in the mail. It is best to use a padded envelope to send the semen samples even when the straw is in a pen or some other protective casing.

Tissue Sample Unit (TSU) A TSU is a great way to take a sample, but like all other sample methods, is not fail proof. The proper equipment (tissue sample tubes and a tissue sampling applicator gun) is needed to

CHB Bites

CHB Shines in Restaurants and Meat Cases

“CHB Bites” is a column designed to keep you in-the-know about the Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB) program. To get involved with CHB on social media, search Certified Hereford Beef on Facebook and Pinterest, @certifiedherefordbeef on Instagram and @crtherefordbeef on Twitter.

Hinn Named a CHB Chef Brand Ambassador Addison Hinn, Cask and Cork Chef in Amarillo, Texas, was recently selected for the prestigious opportunity to be a Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB) Chef Brand Ambassador. Hinn’s beginning in the culinary world started long before his first job. He was always mesmerized by cooking shows and enjoyed helping his mom prepare meals in the kitchen. His official kitchen experience began with his first job at 13 years old, bussing tables and washing dishes at the restaurant his mother managed. After that, he never left the kitchen. Growing up in the small West Texas town of Plainview, Hinn knew he would need to leave home to gain an elite culinary education. While nearing the end of high school, Hinn made the fearless decision to attend culinary school in Denver. CHB Chef Brand Ambassador “I was always Addison Hinn looks forward to sharing the CHB brand very interested in and culinary techniques cooking, but never with fellow chefs and had the equipment consumers alike. or ingredients to really practice and create what I wanted,” Hinn says. “After much consideration, I decided to leave my hometown with some of my high school friends and move to Denver for culinary school.” Hinn’s West Texas roots called him home after finishing his

| March 2022

culinary education to his esteemed role as the Chef at Cask and Cork, a high-end, local favorite in Amarillo. There, he was able to draw on his leadership in the kitchen, his innate talent for creating new dishes and his education to curate an exciting menu for his local and out-of-town customers alike. His kitchen at Cask and Cork is well known for their exceptional dishes and their customer favorite, Certified Hereford Beef ribeye steaks. When customers ask about the special steak seasoning, Hinn tells them it’s the quality of CHB. “We barely touch the beef; all it needs is a little salt and pepper to make it perfect — that’s all we do,” Addison explains. “The steaks are always consistent with great marbling and fat content.” Hinn looks forward to sharing the brand and culinary techniques with other chefs and consumers. “I’m very excited for the opportunity to be a Chef Brand Ambassador to teach others and make new connections through the program,” Hinn says.

Hereford Heritage at Taylor’s Vega Market Thirty miles north of Hereford, Texas, in Texas cattle country, you’ll find Taylor’s Vega Market, a local grocery store known for its exceptional meat counter and friendly service. The name refers to its location — Vega, Texas. Taylor’s Vega Market is a family business that started in 1961. The store’s managers have maintained a strong business model for 60 years by keeping customers’ desires

their top priority and by carrying high-quality products. Naturally, the Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB) brand emerged as the perfect beef program for the store. CHB not only helps the store provide high-quality USDA Choice beef to its customers, but it also ties the store owners to their heritage in the Hereford business. Meridith Rogers, Taylor’s Vega Market butcher and relative to the store’s owner, is proud that the store stays connected to her family’s history with Hereford cattle by carrying Certified Hereford Beef. “My grandpa grew up raising Herefords, and, now generations later, we are still connected to the Hereford breed by selling Certified Hereford Beef in the store,” Rogers says. “We are proud to reconnect with our family history by carrying a product that truly means something to us.” The West Texas area surrounding Vega is home to local farmers and ranchers who are familiar with highquality beef and demand the best at Taylor’s Vega Market. “I continuously have cowboys coming into the store telling us that Certified Hereford Beef is the best beef they have ever had,” Rogers says. Rogers appreciates CHB’s consistent quality and the marketing materials, which help her promote the program and drive sales. “I am always impressed with the quality of Certified Hereford Beef, which truly stands out compared to several Angus products we have carried in the past,” Rogers explains.

Youth Movement

World at Your Fingertips

by Ralston Ripp

Now, seemingly more than ever before, opinions differ. For instance, there is your neighbor who sees the worst and worries about the future. Maybe you, too, are anxious. But, maybe you agree with the man down the road — the one who believes each day is what we make of it. This man believes we hold the chance to make an impact and cultivate change. I am the latter — an optimist. I love to see the good, find the positive side and always hope for the best in everyone. I struggle with reality at times and could probably be a bit more realistic. But, that is what being a dreamer is all about: having hope, taking in the small moments and risking it all for the next great adventure.

Stargazing

My days of studying in a college classroom on campus are slimming. Looking back, I realize I entered my college career with enormous aspirations. I went into the university planning to get involved in organizations and make a difference, study abroad and see the world, and even figure out what I wanted to spend the rest of my life doing. At that time, I didn’t think those goals were too overwhelming; however, now I reflect on these goals and the many times I told myself, “I will get to it tomorrow,” or, “I still have another year to figure it out.” Now, three years later, I realize I still haven’t gotten all my to-do boxes checked. Some of them were achieved, while others still stand as a tomorrow issue. I may not be full of wisdom or have tons of life experience, but I am full of heart and courage. So, I say, see the good, dream it, share it and don’t wait. Excuses can easily be made, but the courageous action of getting started matters more. Taking a chance in the midst of negativity is hard, scary and every fearful word in the book. There is always a “but” and a hopeful chance. Honestly, the worst someone can ever say is, “No.” Be a stargazer and chase your wildest dreams; you keep hope and inspiration alive. You are in charge of sharing what is possible with the world.

“I’m-possible”

“Possible” is simply defined as the ability to be done, with the power or capacity of someone or something. Lately it seems that “not possible” or the word “impossible” are more commonly used in society’s vocabulary. Being a positive person, I think anything can really happen and be possible

Ralston Ripp, NJHA board member

with a little elbow grease and faith. We have all heard the saying, “When pigs fly.” Well, a pot belly pig fits in a pet carrier as a carryon. This proves anyone can hop on a plane and soar — including pigs. Hopefully that thought makes you chuckle, but the point is that life is about seizing the moment and appreciating the joy in the simple things. If you really analyze the word, “impossible,” you see, “I’m possible.” Where there is a will, there is a way. Your motives capture perspective; your perspective sees the good and the opportunity.

Conquer the world

You can truly make a difference. You can choose to listen to the cranky neighbor or join in the joy of the optimist at the end of the block. The choice is yours. Life can be uncontrollable and full of unknown events, choices and opportunities. Time goes too fast, mistakes happen and challenges occur, but you can see the good and take the chance. Choosing optimism might be your best adventure yet. It is yours to take, and the world is waiting at your fingertips.

Foundation’s Focus

Follow Along

by Amy Cowan

In February, the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) unveiled a new and improved website that highlights our four pillars of scholarship, leadership, education and research. The new site also pays tribute to the foundation’s rich history and generous donors who stand the test of time and continue to give selflessly to Hereford youth and our mission. Amidst the web pages, you will find archives of scholarship winners along with foundation females that sold at national sales over the years. We are excited to add lifetime giving levels to the site soon. This feature will recognize those who have contributed to building the foundation over their lifetimes. The “Major Milestone” section takes a walk down memory lane and starts from HYFA’s beginning in 2000 and showcases the major gifts and big events, which have paved the way for more than 20 years — giving HYFA a solid foundation on which to grow. As we built the site’s history pages, it became very evident to me how fortunate we are to have such a vast donor network that truly believes in the future and leaves a lasting legacy. Our donor network has a big heart, and Hereford youth have continuously been the

18

| March 2022

beneficiaries of so many amazing people who have believed in them and sustained this way of life. HerefordYouthFoundation.org features a much more robust online giving platform, which enables you to make secure online donations. Whether it is a memorial for a friend or loved one, a sponsorship at the Junior National Hereford Expo or a general gift — your donation today helps juniors tomorrow. I invite you to follow along on the new website and get engaged in HYFA’s Facebook page to see the impact of your gifts.

Planning your legacy

As HYFA’s investment portfolio grows beyond $5 million, we are proud of the foundation’s many named scholarships and endowments, which helped us reach this milestone. The 2021 annual report showed net assets of $5.4 million and growing. Even more exciting, intentions to give through estate planning and bequests are valued at $1.85 million. So, as we look to the future, these planned gifts will continue to take HYFA to new heights. Planned giving enables you to leave a lasting legacy to help support youth programs at the American Hereford Association. Planned (or deferred) giving helps strengthen the financial future of HYFA and also helps address your own estate planning needs through tax advantages or other benefits. In some cases, it can increase your retirement income. You’ve spent a lifetime achieving your dreams and growing your assets, and you deserve a strategic plan for creating your legacy. HYFA would like to work with you to devise a plan with your philanthropic goals and financial objectives in mind. The foundation has a long-standing partnership with UMB Bank’s Trust

Communications Corner

Social Media 101

by Taylor Belle Matheny

When I graduated high school in 2015, social media was growing worldwide. These platforms allowed people to communicate with each other virtually, despite physical distance. My generation has worked with social media throughout our professional careers, but other generations may have questions about the platforms. How does social media encourage so many to spend time looking at a screen? My goal for this column is to provide you a deeper dive into the different social media platforms. Next month, I will share the role these platforms can have in marketing Hereford operations and our breed.

Social Media Basics

Before breaking down each of the platforms, let’s start by understanding a few general social media terms. A profile is an account created by a person or business that provides the ability to share content and connect with other accounts (personal or business). When you hear the term “feed,” don’t think grain. A social media feed is the content posted by the accounts you follow or yourself. Content posted to a feed will stay there until it is deleted unlike what is termed a “story” in social media parlance. Stories allow users to post content that will disappear after 24 hours. Now that you understand the basics, let’s look at each platform.

20

| March 2022

Facebook — One of the first platforms that kicked off a new era of communication and marketing was Facebook. Facebook’s initial goal was to connect people through a virtual platform. Facebook has evolved from being not only a way for people to connect, but also a means to connect businesses with potential customers. On Facebook, a variety of content will appear for a user, ranging from photos and videos to text-only posts. Businesses now use Facebook to target potential customers, and the platform has proven to be a successful way to grow brand identity.

Instagram —The main difference between Facebook and Instagram is the look of both platforms. Both have feeds and stories for content, but the organization of the content is different. For someone new to social media, I would recommend starting with Facebook and expanding to Instagram once you learn the basics. Both platforms are useful for businesses to market their product and individuals to network.

Twitter — When you hear Twitter, think news. Unlike Facebook and Instagram, Twitter limits posts to 280 characters. Twitter users are not as likely to share photos but are more inclined to share a thought. Businesses and news organizations use Twitter to share small bits of information quickly. If you enjoy keeping up with news and aren’t interested in longer posts, Twitter might be for you.

Snapchat — Snapchat has replaced texting for some users. This platform allows users to snap a photo, add a short description and easily send it to one person or their entire friends list. Snapchat has become a way for users to easily connect with close peers. In terms of marketing, Snapchat hasn’t had as much success because users prefer to keep content limited to stories from close friends.

TikTok — TikTok entered the social media game in 2016 and was a fresh addition to the platforms already in existence. TikTok is a video-only platform that connects people with content which interests them. Often, people don’t like the platform the first few times they log on, but as time progresses their feed is customized to their interests. Right now, TikTok isn’t overwhelmed with business content, but could be an avenue in the future to share content and connect through an entirely new way. This will be an interesting platform to follow the next few years. The online world of social media seems to continually grow and change as technology advances. My best advice is to download a platform that interests you and create an account. Don’t feel obligated to post anything right away. Engage, observe, and learn the basics of the platform you choose, and before you know it, navigating social media will get easier.

Hereford Women

Hereford Networking

by Abbygail Pitstick

Some people believe the National Hereford Women (NHW) solely focus on the National Hereford Queen program. Since the American Hereford Women and the National Organization of Poll-Ettes merged in October 2009, NHW has played a huge role in promoting Hereford cattle to the buying public, educating future leaders about the breed and promoting Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB).

Events for all ages

Promoting the Hereford breed has become NHW’s specialty. The NHW conducts countless socials to bring Hereford breeders together and promote their cattle. Every year at the American Royal, the NHW hosts a social before the Ladies of the Royal Sale. This gives the sellers an opportunity to connect with potential Hereford cattle buyers in ways which might not be possible without this social aspect.

The National Hereford Women ride for the breed’s brand, whether it is supporting National Junior Hereford Association members or curating recipes featuring Certified Hereford Beef®.

When it comes to the development and education of the youth involved in the Hereford breed, NHW sponsors numerous contests and scholarships throughout the year. One of the biggest and busiest times for the NHW is the Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE). The NHW facilitates scholarship interviews and several skill-building contests for the Hereford youth during the event. These women enjoy working with National Junior Hereford Association members of all ages, through the variety of contests, along with their families during JNHE.

Branding beef

NHW takes pride in promoting Hereford cattle, not only on the ranch but also on consumers’ plates as well. Certified Hereford Beef is a product of the U.S.A. and backed by American Hereford farm and ranch families working hard to raise a high-quality product. To set CHB apart from other breed-based, branded meat programs, NHW

stepped up to help promote the Hereford brand. Many women in the Hereford industry have found ways to incorporate Certified Hereford Beef into their daily lives. Whether that is the CHB-centric meal they set on the table or the product they sell in their local shop, NHW members ride for the brand and the breed. Many of the Certified Hereford Beef recipes used by women in the Hereford breed can be found on the NHW website, HerefordWomen.com. It is truly amazing what these women have been able to accomplish for the Hereford breed over the last decade. These women work extremely hard every day to support and promote the breed that they hold close to their hearts. The National Hereford Women are excited to see what the future holds not only for the NHW, but the Hereford breed as a whole.

Share Your Cattle Story Markie Hageman, 2021 Beef Advocate of the Year is starting in the cattle business with Hereford genetics.

Markie Hageman is the Beef Advocate of the Year by Wes Ishmael

N

avigating the trail between dreams of a career in fashion and agribusiness seems as circuitous as the path between having little knowledge about agriculture and beef cattle production to being one of its most effective advocates. Markie Hagemen, Hilmar, Calif., traveled both and was recently named the 2021 Beef Advocate of the Year. The award recognizes one outstanding advocate each year for success in educating consumers about cattle and beef. Markie earned the award for creating effective social media content highlighting the benefits of beef production, the cattle industry and what it’s like being a first-generation rancher. The Masters of Beef Advocacy (MBA) program, funded by the Beef Checkoff, selects the award winner.

Girls eat beef, too

“I share my journey as a first-generation, beginner rancher on my social media platform Girls Eat Beef Too (GEB2),” Markie explains. “The name was inspired by my experience with waiters bringing food out and assuming I would order the salad or chicken and my fiancé would order a cheeseburger. This is absolutely false. I realized that beef tends to be thought of as a manly food, but women like me actually love and prefer red meat.” More specifically, Markie is known most on social media for her memes, which has evolved into

a language unto itself. Think in terms of readily recognized pictures and quotes (memes) or short videos (reels) with a caption conveying the author’s message. She favors humor. For instance some of Markie’s memes aim at folks who know the industry, such as a picture from the movie, “A League of the Their Own,” where the crusty retired male pitcher is berating one of his sobbing female baseball players with, “There’s no crying in baseball!” Markie’s caption: “An actual photo of my dad trying to teach me to back the trailer.” “Memes are a great bridge between those who aren’t involved in agriculture and those who are,” Markie explains. “I try to find a connection between pop culture and agriculture. I can share something that only ranchers really understand but the meme gives it more context to people who have never lived on a ranch. This helps everyone relate to my content no matter their background.”

Finding the passion

Markie grew up in Tulare, Calif., an ag-bountiful part of the world noted for dairy production and the World Ag Expo. She grew up riding horses, showing pigs and sheep in 4-H, barrel racing and eventually becoming a rodeo queen. But Markie knew little about agriculture. “It wasn’t until I competed in and won the Woodlake Lions Rodeo Queen Contest in 2014 that I Hereford.org


realized I was really passionate about the Western way of life. My reign was a year full of communicating with people about my passion for the sport, cowboys and cowgirls,” Markie explains. “I realized I may have a knack for it. However, this was still a couple of years before I found the beef industry.” In 2016, she moved to Auburn, Ala. with her mom, Jenny, and stepdad, Robert Britton. That’s when Robert went to work for Auburn University. He also had a herd of commercial cows. Anybody can be “I attended a couple an advocate for the of cattlemen’s events in Alabama because my industry if they are parents were involved passionate about beef and I wanted to meet people since I was new and cattle. to the South. I used — Markie Hageman social media for personal reasons but never to advocate agriculture, because I didn’t really know agriculture needed advocacy,” Markie says. “I started posting photos of my stepdad’s cattle for fun and then found the Animal Agriculture Alliance College Aggies Online Contest. This is a contest that allows contestants to advocate on social media with weekly challenges and topics. I never knew how much people were against agriculture until I was part of this contest.” She placed in the top 10. “Around the same time, I realized that I really loved learning about beef cattle and loved the people in the industry,” Markie explains. “I applied to the Young Cattlemen’s Leadership Program (YCLP) in Alabama and went through both the Beef Quality Assurance and Masters of Beef Advocacy certification programs. Most of the things I learned in both those certification courses were new to me.” The experience led to Markie enrolling at Fort Hays State University in Kansas, where she graduated with an agribusiness degree. Moreover, Markie’s time in Auburn introduced her to Hereford cattle. “When I lived in Alabama I used to drive by a pasture on the way into town. There was always this bull with a bald face and red body. I fell in love with him. Once I learned that he was a Hereford, I started researching different things about them. I read about their docility and great carcass quality, which rivals that of Angus. I also knew living in California in the heat of summer would be better for lighter hides,” Markie says. “I had people tell me that I needed to focus on black hides to be successful in the industry, but, as someone who didn’t even know much about beef cattle five years ago, I figure my story is enough proof that it’s time to change the status quo and not be afraid to show how other breeds can compete with Angus. The worst thing we can do in life, and in the industry, is settle and not seek change.” Hereford.org

Markie’s first cow purchase was three Herefordcross heifers in 2020, after she returned to California. She added a purebred Hereford heifer last year. All are AI-bred to Hereford.

Start with folks you know

Markie continued her MBA education as a Top of the Class participant and was recently named as one of the first 10 students to the new Trailblazers program, which advances participants’ advocacy ability with tools and training needed to promote beef to new audiences while addressing and correcting myths. “Start with your family and those closest to you. You’d be surprised how many people you know who don’t understand the agricultural industry,” Markie says. “I think it’s important to start in our smaller communities. Those are the people you already have a relationship with. They see you as a person and not some awful meat eater.” Conviction matters plenty, too. As a young woman, Markie says, “I’ve had some people tell me I don’t have the experience to be an advocate for the industry. As a first-generation rancher, I don’t know everything, but that’s why my voice is as important as anyone else’s.” Given her starting point and the deliberate choice to get started in the cattle business, it’s easy to argue that her voice carries more weight with the consumers she’s trying to connect to the cattle business.

Markie Hageman (center) with her mom, Jenny, and stepdad, Robert Britton, received her award during the 2022 Cattle Industry Convention in Houston.

“Anybody can be an advocate for the industry if they are passionate about beef and cattle,” Markie says. “Those are the people who will help bridge the gap between the industry and the consumer. “Our industry lacks in the advocacy department. There are a few big names and not enough fresh faces and voices. We have such a diverse industry without even realizing it and my perspective speaks to people in different ways than someone else’s, so the more people who can be better, stronger advocates, the more hopeful our future as an industry will be. We need to get louder because anti-animal ag organizations and people are not afraid to share their opinions and misinformation and are trying to drown us out.” March 2022 |

Tips for Farm Social Media

Social media can be a great tool to promote your farm or ranch. by Kevin Burkett, Charlotte Maxwell and Carey Herndon

According to Pew Research,2 more than 70% of adults now use at least one social media site. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Google and Pinterest are most commonly seen in agriculture, but new platforms continually emerge. Whatever platform(s) you use, make it effective and something that works for you. Social media is a great way to connect with customers, build relationships and promote your farm, regardless of the platform(s) you choose.

1 Be active, be consistent

One of the most important factors for social media success is timely, consistent activity. If there is too little activity, not many people see your page or posts. Too much activity and you run the risk of people tuning out your message. Often, sites will allow you to draft a post and save it for later. This is a great way to create several posts at a time and spread them out so that you are timely and consistent. A step further is scheduling the post to be automatically released to the public through a timer. This way, you can be active even if you are out in the field or not in front of your computer. When you have a consistent pattern and time that you post, people start to notice and even anticipate your messages.

2 Use effective visuals

When making a post, try to incorporate something visual. People love to see beautiful photographs and engaging videos. Baby animal pictures, educational videos and cooking demonstrations are great attention-getters. It is hard to pay attention to text, especially if it is long or difficult to read. The National Center for Biotechnology Information in 2015 found that the average attention span was around 8.5 seconds.3 It’s difficult to convey a typed message in 9 seconds or less. On the flip side, researchers from MIT found the brain can process images in as little as 13 milliseconds.3

| March 2022

3 Engage with your customers and community

In general, the more followers and friends that interact with your page and posts, the more likely it is to be seen by others. Be creative in coming up with ways to connect with clientele. For businesses that cater to clients in a specific location, when you engage in your community, potential customers see your page and your activity. You appreciate comments, likes and shares on your page, so doing the same to others and being a good online contributor benefits everyone. An online presence and word-of-mouth are probably the two most influential marketing tools available.

4 The goal is farm sales (not followers)

Social media is useful to help market and brand the farm. Using it effectively can greatly help you establish a customer base. List your page as a ‘business’ and separate it from your personal account. It is great to have lots of social media contacts, but you want to turn that into sales and revenue for the farm. It would be better to have fewer followers who visit your farm than hundreds of followers who never buy anything. Focus on content that directly and indirectly leads to sales. Make sure your page and posts make it clear how customers can purchase from you. If they find something they like, do not create barriers or difficulties in making a purchase. Clearly state what you have available, hours, location and ways to buy from you.

5 Develop your brand ‘voice’

Your brand voice is the tone, personality and entity that you present online. This voice embodies the personality that is unique and authentic to your brand. Accounts that are consistently engaging, educational or funny are examples of having a brand voice. Your brand voice puts a personal touch on the business. An online personality can set you apart from others and help customers identify your brand. Hereford.org


6 Be professional

Treat social media the same way you treat other communication channels. Focus on providing clear information to your audience while giving them an opportunity to interact with your account. Consider the following when crafting posts: be timely, stick to the facts, promote positivity, be respectful and use proper grammar and formatting.

7 Use the features of the site

Every social media platform has unique tools that help engagement and can help brand the business. Below are some of the most common features4: • Tagging (@) – Tagging other pages in a post expands your audience to reach followers of that page as well as your own. • Hashtags (#) – Hashtags group together similar posts, which make it easier for content to appear in a search. • Analytics – Many platforms offer analytics (sometimes called insights) that give data on how well a post is performing. This allows you to see what works well and what does not. • Stories – Stories are posts that last for 24 hours. • Live Broadcast – Live broadcasts allow viewers to engage in real-time. They are great for showing current events, hosting sessions and making important announcements. • Automatic Responses – Automatic responses are an easy way to respond to customers in a timely manner. • Linking Across Sites – Many platforms allow you to coordinate and connect your posts. Connecting platforms can make your content more accessible to your audience. For example, sharing a link on your Facebook can direct viewers to your website or YouTube channel. Choose sites and features that work for your farm, your products, and most importantly, your customers.

8 Show what’s happening at the farm

Less than 2% of our population is directly involved in agriculture, but 87% of U.S. agriculture products sold are produced on family farms and ranches.5 Even with this disconnect, Americans are interested in food production and have questions about how their food is produced.6 Be prepared to answer questions in the comments in a professional and educational manner. This could be a great way for someone to learn about agriculture. You can show the public whatever you choose in an image or video format. Keep in mind that posts with 40 characters or less result in 86% more engagement than longer posts.7 If you have more to say, you can include a link to a blog or the farm website.

9 Assign the account

Keep the voice of your page consistent by designating one person to manage the social media accounts. Assigning a social media manager can help make sure there is consistent and timely activity on the page (Tip No. 1). If you have multiple people posting on the account, have each person put his/ her name and position on the farm at the end of the text. Make sure each person knows the brand voice (Tip No. 5) and how to articulate your brand’s message. A good fit for a social media manager position is someone skilled at technology and spends time using computers and mobile devices.

10 Have fun

Managing your social media accounts should not feel like a chore or a burden. There are lots of fun, interesting and educational things to share. Your social media accounts should be a creative and fun outlet to promote your farm and agribusiness.

Turning Heads The Hereford breed captured plenty of attention at the second annual Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City.

E

xcitement surrounded the Hereford breed in the Sooner State when cattlemen and women from around the country converged in Oklahoma City to watch the four-day national Hereford show, Jan. 5-8, during the second annual Cattlemen’s Congress. Electric attention carried from watching judges sort junior heifers, bulls, females and pens to the packed sales arena, where the Hereford sale topped all other breed sale totals. Confirmation of growing interest in the breed came with each step. In all, exhibitors presented 727 head of Hereford cattle in Oklahoma City. Read on to see which cattle hung banners or fetched top dollar.

Junior show

National Junior Hereford Association members were the first to step onto the red dirt. The junior female show kicked off Cattlemen’s Congress for the Hereford breed on Wednesday, Jan. 5. Judge Lydell Meier of Clinton, Tenn., sorted the show of 269 junior heifers in Oklahoma City. Paige Lemenager, Hudson, Ill., exhibited the grand champion polled female, Boy Harley 018H ET. Blake Bruns of North Platte, Neb., won the grand champion horned female title with H Pixie 0635 ET. BK CMCC Highness 082H ET received the reserve grand champion polled female honors; this female is owned by Mason Allan of Nocona, Texas.

Express Ranches, Yukon, Okla., topped the pen-of-five bull show, and Buck Cattle Co., Madill, Okla., took pen-of-three bull honors.

The champion polled bull went to Crayton and Cora Belle Chapman, Seneca, Ill., and Michael Pérez, Nara Visa, N.M., with PCC 7009 173D Maverick 0183 ET. Aidyn Barber, Channing, Texas; Ryon Cox, Mt. Pleasant, Texas; Edwards Ranch,

Nearly 100 potential herd sires were presented in Oklahoma City. Here, BR ER Big Country 007 ET is shown to champion horned bull honors.

May, Texas; and Drew Pérez, Canyon, Texas, brought the champion horned bull to OKC — BR ER Big Country 007 ET.

With auctioneer Cody Lowderman on the block, the sale grossed $867,250 (excluding the HYFA Kentucky Derby Experience) — the highest of all breed sales at Cattlemen’s Congress. Topping the sale was the high-selling bull Lot 17, C GKB Guardian 1015 ET, consigned by Colyer Herefords, Bruneau, Idaho.; GKB Cattle, Waxahachie, Texas; and Iron Lake Ranch, Athens, Texas.

Bids to Build Upon the Foundation Hereford Night in OKC Sale leaves a lasting impact on Hereford youth.

T

he Hereford Night in OKC National Sale, hosted Jan. 7, at the 2022 Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City, featured two lots that raised close to $80,000 for the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA). The first lot was a one-of-a-kind Kentucky Derby experience, and the second lot was a heifer from T/R Cattle Company, Glencoe, Okla., with proceeds being generously donated to HYFA and the Growing a Lasting Legacy Campaign.

The Kentucky Derby experience offered twoday clubhouse courtyard tickets for four, threenight accommodations in downtown Louisville, Ky., and roundtrip private plane transportation generously donated by BioZyme Inc, St. Joseph, Mo. This once in a lifetime package was purchased for $42,500 by Chapman Land and Cattle, Nunnelly, Tenn., with all proceeds going directly to HYFA to support leadership and education for the next generation. T/R Cattle Company’s T/R Miss Shelby J43 ET was the high-selling female at the Hereford Night in OKC Sale and half of the proceeds were donated to HYFA as part of the Foundation One Program. GKB Cattle, Waxahachie, Texas, stepped up and purchased the heifer for $60,000, and this outstanding donor prospect will not only make an impact on the breed, but also on the youth who benefit from HYFA’s programs. “The excitement that these two foundation lots generated in Oklahoma City is beyond humbling as Hereford youth will reap the rewards from these gracious donors for years to come,” says Amy Cowan, American Hereford Association director of youth activities and foundation. “HYFA looks forward to implementing part of these funds at educational and leadership events including the Junior National Hereford Expo in Louisville, Ky., this summer, and the National Junior Hereford Association’s new BOLD Leadership Conference coming up in March.”

Starting from Scratch First generation Hereford Herdsman Jacob Wolfrey enjoys helping young people succeed. by Katie Maupin Miller

I

t’s funny how one seemingly unlikely choice can shape the rest of your life. That is certainly the case for the 2022 Hereford Herdsman Jacob Wolfrey of Jarrettsville, Md. Wolfrey didn’t grow up in the beef industry. He was not part of a multi-generational ranch. His childhood home was just 50 miles northwest of Washington D.C., and production agriculture wasn’t a popular pastime. Yet, when Wolfrey wanted to join 4-H and exhibit cattle in the Jacob Wolfrey of Jarrettsville, Md., was honored as the 2022 Hereford Herdsman early ’90s, his parents supported his of the Year at the National Hereford Show during Cattlemen’s Congress hosted in Oklahoma City. endeavor. Looking back, none of the Wolfrey family likely realized at Wolfrey was traveling with show strings on the East the time how pivotal of a moment that was. Coast — hired to help present cattle before he was “I don’t think my parents ever imagined when we started, what this would turn into,” the showman says. old enough to drive. The first couple years, John Hausner of For Wolfrey, the cattle industry gave him a Pennsylvania had Wolfrey work the Pennsylvania hobby, then a passion, then a career. It even helped him meet his wife, and today, it serves as the anchor Farm Show, or as Wolfrey says, “the Denver of Pennsylvania.” Soon, Wolfrey was preparing cattle of his young family and the future for his son. for other farms such as Cherry Knoll Farm in West Grove, Pa. Humble beginnings Around this same time, the Wolfrey family sold As a first-generation cattleman, Wolfrey, like many their 5-acre patch in Frederick, Md., and moved to young people, leaned on many mentors when he White Post, Va. Their retired Angus show heifers started with his 4-H calves. The family traveled served as the start of a cow herd. Wolfrey enjoyed to show calf sales to working for various producers to help present their purchase their next cattle. In 2006, he met his future bride, Michelle prospect, and young Grimmel Wolfrey, when he traveled with her family to Wolfrey used these sales as an opportunity to meet the Junior National Hereford Expo in Louisville, Ky. Wolfrey lived in White Post until 2010 when he people in the industry and moved to Jarrettsville to join his wife at Grimmel glean as much as possible Girls Show Cattle. about how to get his projects showring ready.

shows, then go home and have good calves until they’re 12 or 15 years old,” Wolfrey says. This high standard for females at Grimmel Girls ensured their heifers were as productive as they were pretty. And as the family began to build upon their few elite females, they used embryo transfer (ET) and in-vitro fertilization (IVF) to grow their cow herd. “We’re just trying to raise the best ones we can,” Wolfrey says. “We’re darn sure not going to have the most out there, but we’re going to try and raise some quality ones and get them into good homes.” By 2016, Grimmel Girls hosted their first online heifer sale, and in just over five years since, the family has marketed cattle to 25 states and Canada. The online sales gave the relatively small seedstock operation an opportunity to bring a handful of high-quality cattle to public auction, even if it is over the world wide web. But, there are also unique challenges to marketing cattle in that manner. One of which is the importance of a good photo and video. Since Grimmel Girls Show Cattle is located on the East Coast, many buyers purchase stock without seeing the cattle in person. This adds extra weight to the photos and videos of the sale offerings. It also means that the Grimmel Girls’ name and reputation must carry enough brand recognition and trust that buyers from across the country feel confident in their genetics. And, Wolfrey takes the responsibility for raising great cattle and presenting them very seriously.

Behind the scenes

Building the brand and reputation of a cattle operation is a full-time job — and then some. Wolfrey often spends more time in the barn each day than most people spend clocked-in to their jobs. But there is a lot to do to present cattle to the best of their abilities. “50 million things go into it — nutrition, genetics, your daily routine, getting them clipped and fitted to the best of your abilities,” Wolfrey explains. He feels fortunate to have had several good mentors from whom to learn over the years, but the bar for great cattle is constantly rising in a competitive environment. “The quality of cattle just seems to be getting better and better each year. It doesn’t matter the breed,” he says. “Everybody wants to win — obviously. I think that is what drives everybody.”

Hereford.org

Consistently staying in the purple is challenging. Clipping and fitting techniques evolve and improve as fast as the cattle themselves. Wolfrey laughs when he recalls that sometimes he didn’t even need to fit front legs when he started as a young person. “Now, we fit essentially their entire body. These cattle have to look so smooth, so presented and so put together.” For a growing operation, like Grimmel Girls, hanging a banner is more than wall art; it is also advertising. “The better you do — the more well-known your name is,” Wolfrey says. “It just seems like people are more apt to buy a calf from you if they know you, especially online.” Thanks in part to Wolfrey’s gifts for cattle selection, management, fitting and clipping, the Grimmel Girls’ program won numerous national titles, including the National Western Stock Show (NWSS), North American International Livestock Expo, Junior National Hereford Expo, Keystone International Livestock Expo, and, most notably, the 2016 NWSS grand champion polled female, along with several show heifer and show bull of the year awards. And their show ring success is echoed by the demand for their genetics, as the Grimmel Girls’ female sales are now among the highest averaging sales held annually. “He has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to breeding and raising cattle and pays close attention to detail to feed, manage, clip and fit, and get the most out of each animal,” says Schaake. “With immense talent, he’s extremely humble and continued on page 66...

continuously looks for ways to learn, improve and enhance his skills. It has been an absolute joy working side by side with him to grow and expand our herd, and I’m excited for the future ahead.”

Young people

While the family is undoubtedly happy with their operation’s success in the show and sale rings, Wolfrey finds it most rewarding when young people succeed with their genetics. It’s likely because he remembers his humble beginnings in the cattle industry and sees a little bit of himself in each young person holding the halter of a Grimmel-bred Hereford heifer. Seeing young people succeed makes all the hard work, long hours in the barn and miles on the road worth it for Wolfrey. It also drives the family to keep going. Building a brand isn’t always easy; there aren’t any days off on a cattle operation. The young family is often pulled in different directions between national shows, calving, breeding, sale Many cattlemen mentored Wolfrey over nearly three decades. Today, watching young people learn and succeed is one of the most rewarding parts of Wolfrey’s role.

Wolfrey focuses on fitting Grimmel Girls Show Cattle’s Hereford heifers at Cattlemen’s Congress.

prep, weaning, etc. Wolfrey even admits the life of a cattleman can seem like an uphill battle, but one that is worth it. “Just keep at it,” he says. “It’s definitely an uphill struggle, but you just have to stay the course. That doesn’t apply to just this. That’s anything, really. I grew up, and my parents did not have an agricultural background at all. Who would have ever thought that I would be doing what I’m doing now?” Yet, at the second annual Cattlemen’s Congress, a first-generation cowman was recognized by his peers as one of the best in the business after decades of learning the trade by living it. The 2022 Herdsman of the Year award was one that Wolfrey accepted humbly. Although he hopes his 2-year-old son, Andrew, will have a leg up in the industry with the foundation they have built at Grimmel Girls, Wolfrey hopes young people read this story and are inspired to reach for their dreams. “I think that you just have to do it — you never know where you will end up if you don’t get started,” Wolfrey says. “You can’t be scared of an opportunity. You have to say, ‘Yes.’ It doesn’t matter where you are, who you are or where you are from; if this is what you want to do, then you can do it. You just have to be willing to do it. You must stay the course and put in the time and the miles. It is a long uphill battle, but the opportunity is there; take it. Take the chance; take the risk.”

HEALTH

Beware of Nursing Calf BRD Limit the risk factors that set calves up for failure.

Photo by Bailey Toates

by Brent Meyer DVM, MS

G

enerally, few of us expect problems with bovine respiratory disease (BRD) in calves nursing their dams on pasture. But, outbreaks of nursing calf BRD — sometimes called summer pneumonia — can and do occur. These factors contribute to the risk of pre-weaning BRD in nursing beef calves: 1. Inadequate colostrum intake or failure of passive transfer of immunity 2. Mineral or vitamin deficiency 3. Internal parasites 4. Dam body condition score (BCS) 5. Fetal programming (dam nutrition and environment during gestation) 6. Unvaccinated calves 7. Weather

8. Cattle handling — e.g. gathering for artificial insemination of dams 9. Population density – e.g. crowded calving environments 10. Time spent under the same roof with dams Factors 1-7 are related to the calf’s ability to resist disease. Factors 8-10 can be mitigated with management. Any of these factors can be critical for a given calf on a given ranch. Consequently, all should be considered in preventing nursing calf BRD. Below are more details about three key factors.

Colostrum and passive transfer immunity

Failure of passive transfer (FPT) of antibodies from dam to calf via colostrum puts calves at a much

higher risk of future harmful health events. For example, Dewell et al. reported that beef calves with FPT were 1.6 times as likely to become ill and 2.7 times as likely to die before weaning, compared to calves with adequate passive transfer.1 Before you say, “This does not apply to my calves,” note that more than a third of calves had FPT in that same study. Volume, timing and quality determine the amount of antibody gained via colostrum. Regarding volume, calves should consume “all the cow has,” up to four quarts. Regarding timing, efficient absorption of antibodies from colostrum begins to decline immediately after birth. It declines to 50% of baseline by six to 12 hours after birth and to near zero by 24 hours after birth. Regarding quality, 2-year-olds — or first-time calvers — produce lower-quality colostrum than mature cows. Keep colostrum replacer on hand for use if you are uncertain a calf received adequate colostrum from its dam — it’s too late to order it when you need it. Calves need approximately 150 to 200 grams of immunoglobulin G antibody (IgG). Absorption of IgG from colostrum is somewhat better if the calf nurses from a nipple, but timing is critically important. If a calf will not nurse after patiently offering a bottle, do not hesitate to tube the calf to deliver the colostrum.

While the maternal interference dogma is no longer believed to be true for all pathogens in all calves all of the time, it is still true for most pathogens most of the time — this is a good topic to discuss with your veterinarian. Internal parasitism and immune response

Internal parasite infections compromise the immune response to both disease and vaccination. Internal parasites “distract” the immune system. When the “attention” of the immune system is diverted, the animal’s ability to fight a BRD (or any disease) challenge is jeopardized. Overuse of pouron parasiticide formulations, due to convenience, has led to parasite resistance to macrocyclic lactone dewormers in some herds. An oral “white” dewormer may be a better choice for calves. Decreasing the parasite burden in calves leads to a healthier immune system and increased weaning weights.

Vaccination and antibodies

Before discussing calf vaccination, we must consider the phenomenon of what is termed maternal antibody interference. Briefly, the maternal interference dogma states that during the first three months or so of a calf’s life, antibodies from colostrum bind to and inactivate parenterally administered (subcutaneous or intramuscular) vaccines before they can stimulate an immune response. While the maternal interference dogma is no longer believed to be true for all pathogens in all calves all of the time, it is still true for most pathogens most of the time — this is a good topic to discuss with your veterinarian. Therefore, we must bypass maternal antibody interference to effectively immunize young calves. Two methods to do so are vaccinating the dam or utilizing intranasal (IN) vaccination. Hereford.org

It is common to administer scour vaccines to dams prior to calving. This practice increases antibodies directed against scour pathogens in the colostrum, resulting in increased antibodies in calves. The same strategy can be employed against BRD pathogens. Keep in mind there is a very low but not insignificant risk of pregnancy wastage any time a vaccine is administered to a pregnant cow. So, the risk of nursing calf BRD must be weighed against the risk of fetal loss. Modified-live viral (MLV) vaccines can only be administered to a pregnant cow if she received a dose of modified-live viral vaccine immediately prior to the start of the current gestation. Visit with your veterinarian before vaccinating pregnant animals. Intranasal vaccines directed against infectious bovine

rhinotracheitis (IBR), bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV), parainfluenza-3 virus (PI3), Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida are available and can be safely administered to very young calves. A relatively new intranasal vaccine is available that contains all five of those antigens. Intranasal vaccination bypasses maternal antibody interference and is an effective way to prevent disease caused by these pathogens. In order to reduce nursing calf BRD, limit the risk factors that set calves up for failure, such as FPT and internal parasites. Vaccination can increase the likelihood of success. Work with your veterinarian to identify and address pitfalls and to implement strategies that lead to healthier calves.

A Practical Conversation About Genomics Genomics help drive genetic progress and profitability. by Will Fiske

T

he beef industry continues to evolve rapidly and new advancements create new questions for producers wanting to use technology to improve their bottom line. While implementation strategies vary based on environmental and managerial constraints, the underlying goal remains the same — improve profitability. Keeping the cow herd profitable ensures ranches remain financially viable and last for generations. Breeders often ask, “What genetics should I invest in to improve profitability?” Before searching sale

Genetic progress is made when the average genetic value of the offspring is higher than the average genetic value of the previous generation. Increasing the rate of genetic progress is simply generating better cattle faster. There are four key elements that determine genetic progress, all of which are influenced by genomics.

catalogs for genetics, producers should identify their breeding objectives. A cow herd’s genetic progress should reflect the operation’s objectives and coincide with financial factors influencing its target market. Hereford bull buyers expect the time-tested advantage of Hereford performance year after year. What technology can profitably impact the genetic progress of Hereford seedstock while also helping commercial bull buyers capitalize on the maternal and terminal traits of the breed? Genomics. The use of genomic technology in breeding programs significantly accelerates the rate of genetic progress for economically relevant traits.

| March 2022

Selection intensity is the difference in the average genetic merit of the selected population compared to the entire population. For example, using sires in the top 10% for a trait results in greater genetic change than using sires in the top 20%. Selection intensity can be increased by genomically proven sires. Genomic information reduces the selection risk that the true breeding value of replacements will be significantly poorer than expected.

Accuracy is the strength of the relationship between a true breeding value and the predicted value, or the expected progeny difference (EPD), for a trait. The level of accuracy for a trait, such as Calving Ease, will increase by 0.09, with a genomic profile. This provides breeders with a higher degree of confidence in the prediction. For the trait of Calving Ease, this is equivalent to 17 progeny’s phenotypic data. Variation is the variability of breeding values within a population for a trait under selection. Genomic information enhances our ability to identify the variability of breeding values within herds and populations (Figure 1). Generation interval refers to the average age of the breeding animals. If a greater percentage of young animals are retained each year and older animals are culled, then the generation interval is decreased and will result in greater genetic change. Genomic testing directly decreases the generation interval by improving the accuracy of young seedstock’s genetic predictions.

Selecting for success

Using genomic technology gives producers more control over the rate and direction of genetic progress and improvement. Genetic improvement upholds an operation’s reputation for superior genetics and increases customer confidence. By using genomic information to plan matings, producers increase their cow herd’s response to selection and genetic progress (Figure 2).

From the Field New Arrivals

Keaton Cromwell

Brooke and Kalen Cromwell, Kansas, announce the birth of their son, Keaton Cromwell. He was born on Dec. 29, 2021, and weighed 8 lbs., 11 oz. Proud grandparents, Kevin and Sheila Jensen, are excited to welcome another member to Jensen Bros.

Lane Ryan Woolfolk

Matt and Erika Woolfolk of Adair, Iowa, announce the birth of their son, Lane Ryan Woolfolk. He was born on Jan. 29. Lane weighed 8 lbs., 2 oz., and he was 20 inches long. John and Pat Woolfolk, of Woolfolk Farms, Jackson, Tenn., are the proud grandparents.

In Passing Lawrence Leon Malone, 99, Moline, Kan., passed Dec. 15, 2021. He was born on Sept. 26, 1922, to Herbert and Eva (Witt) Malone Lawrence in rural Chautauqua Malone County, Kansas. He graduated from Moline High School in

106

| March 2022

1941 and shortly after married his wife, Eva (McGregor), on Nov. 22, 1942. They shared nearly 72 years of marriage until her death in 2014. Lawrence and Eva made their home on their farm in Belknap, Kan., worked the farm together and raised their three children, Alton, Corrine and Leroy, until they built their home in Moline in 1985. They proudly raised polled Hereford cattle and built about 11 miles of terraces and a mile of waterways on their property. Over his lifetime, Lawrence was very active in his community, serving on the school board, Farm Bureau, Chautauqua County Land Conservation and Polled Hereford Association. In 2017, he was honored with the Chautauqua County Pioneer Award. He and Eva were avid square dancers for close to 14 years. Lawrence also enjoyed playing cards with family, accumulating around 30 decks of cards at the last count. As devoted to his community, family and farm as he was, his greatest accomplishment was his lifelong marriage to Eva. Lawrence is survived by his children: Alton (Marie) Malone, Emporia, Kan.; Corrine Wood, Fort Worth, Texas; and Leroy (Wanda Mills) Malone, Moline, Kan.; along with his nine grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Marvin Malone; sister, Leona; and his wife, Eva. William R. “Bill” Angell, 75, La Salle, Colo., passed Jan. 27. William R. “Bill” Angell was born in Lansing, Mich., to Bill Angell Robert D. and Frances L. Angell on Aug. 24, 1946. Bill was raised on a small farm in Michigan, where he acquired his love for agriculture. After graduating from East Lansing High School, he enrolled at Michigan State University (MSU). Bill was an avid livestock evaluator and a member of the MSU livestock judging team, where he had great success and always valued the instruction from

his coach and lifelong friend, Dr. Harlan Ritchie. Upon graduation, Bill continued his education by earning a master’s degree from the University of Wisconsin, where his success in livestock judging continued, but this time as the coach. His success as a coach paled in comparison to the most important thing he received while in Wisconsin — the introduction to the love of his life, Donna Zimmerman. Bill and Donna were married April 30, 1971, and spent the next 50 plus years together. Shortly after their marriage, Bill and Donna moved to Lexington, Ky., where Bill coached the livestock judging team at the University of Kentucky. Bill recognized the potential a young person had to impact the industry or to achieve their goals. He lent support and shared his expertise. Bill’s willingness to take the time to share words of encouragement was an invaluable gift. On April 17, 1973, Bill and Donna started their family with the birth of their first-born, Blake William. After two years at the University of Kentucky, Bill made a career change that would set in motion the next nearly 50 years of his professional life. In the fall of 1973, Bill moved his family to Pine Bluff, Ark., as he became a fieldman for the American Polled Hereford Association. This is where Bill’s love for the purebred cattle industry was forged. He traveled throughout a four-state region, as well as nationally, working with polled Hereford breeders, assisting them with marketing and promotion, and conducting Association business. While in Arkansas, Bill and Donna grew their family. On Sept. 27, 1976, their daughter, Miki Renee, was born. Just a short 13 months later, their third child, Marisa “Missy” Lynn, was born on Oct. 29, 1977. In 1978, Bill and Donna moved their family to Colorado when Bill accepted a position with the Record Stockman newspaper. Bill loved working with seedstock operations and assisting them with their marketing for annual production sales. One of his most valued Hereford.org


and loved contributions was providing ringman services at production sales. For those in the cattle business, Bill was a fixture ringside at production sales across the country for decades. He had a knack for figuring up the sale average within moments after the sale. Those who knew of this ability would seek him, because he was always the first one to have the averages tabulated. After leaving the Record Stockman, Bill worked for Superior Livestock Auction for several years where he built the sale catalog, developed the advertising and promotional campaigns, and generated the sale reports. However, Bill was still passionate about the purebred business, and he returned to that segment of the industry as the yards manager at the National Western Stock Show (NWSS). Over the many years he was at NWSS, Bill’s contributions to the activities that took place “in the yards” were immeasurable, including the “Wall of Champions” in the Livestock

Center. The Wall of Champions provided viewers a visual tour of the past. Bill’s most recent impact on the industry was as livestock manager at the Nebraska State Fair. Bill was hired when the fair moved to its new location in Grand Island, Neb., and he played a pivotal role in advancing not only the Nebraska State Fair, but also in establishing the incredible facilities to one of the premiere livestock show venues in the country. Bill gave a lifetime of service to the cattle industry, and his contributions to it were vast. Bill didn’t look for praise or recognition. He found joy and self-fulfillment knowing he had done everything in his power to ensure the outcome of events. Bill was loved and cherished by so many he encountered over the years. Of all his accomplishments, the one he was probably most proud of was being a grandpa. Bill was blessed to have four grandkids that he loved and adored. He attended all activities they were involved in and cherished spending time with each

of them. He was a beloved grandpa who will be greatly missed. Bill loved his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, his family, his countless friends, the cattle industry, his MSU Spartans and the United States of America, which he proudly served in the National Guard. Bill was preceded in death by his parents, in-laws, sister-in-law, Lois, and brother-in-law, David. He is survived by Donna, his wife of 50-plus years; son, Blake (Kirsten) Angell, Gove, Kan.; daughter, Miki (Steve) Kissler, La Salle, Colo.; daughter, Missy (Amy) Angell of Greeley, Colo.; brother, Richard (Leslie) Angell, Michigan; grandson, Tyler Kissler; granddaughter, Makayla Kissler; grandson, Seth Kissler; granddaughter, Brynnlee Angell; brother-in-law, Reg (Betty) Zimmerman, Wisconsin; sister-in-law, Barbara Zimmerman, Wisconsin; brother-in-law, Bill (Sharon) Zimmerman, Wisconsin; nephew, Nic (Shara) Angell, California; nephew, Kevin (Jenny) Angell, Michigan, and numerous other brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews.

Sales Digest: 2021 in Review Hereford Bulls Average $5,745 The demand for Hereford genetics continues to grow, with Hereford bulls averaging $5,745 per lot during the calendar year. In total, 6,617.50 bull lots sold in production and consignment sales, compared to 6,280.66 in 2020. Female lots tallied 5,906 to average $4,331. All in all, 12,523.50 lots grossed $63,598,733 to average $5,078 — an acrossthe-board increase to last year’s figures.

Understanding the Sales Digest summary

This year-end review summarizes the 2021 sales reported in the Hereford World. The sales included occurred from January through December of 2021. Tables are organized by the top production and consignment sales. Production sales are organized by ranges of lots sold, and then sorted by average, highest to lowest. Consignment sales are sorted by average, highest to lowest. Only bull production sales averaging $4,500 or higher, female production sales averaging $5,000 or higher and consignment sales averaging $3,000 or higher were printed in this year-end review, but all 2021 sales reported in the Hereford World were used to calculate the monthly totals and yearend numbers. Visit Hereford.org/ marketing/hereford-sales/ sales-results/ and check out the “Sales Digest” column in the Hereford World to stay up to date with the latest sales results.

The Maternal Advantage program generates females with added longevity, more docility, increased fertility and more profit per year. Can be utilized by producers using Hereford bulls on British-based cows or Brahman-based cows in their breeding program. Producers utilizing the program will have access to a sire EPD summary, added market exposure, replacement selection tools, genetic improvement tools and access to AHA resources, marketing and staff.

Visit Hereford.org to learn more and enroll.

Qualifications • Producers must verify that eligible females are sired by registered Hereford bulls with transferred ownership. • Participating bull batteries must rank in the top 50% of the breed for Baldy Maternal Index (BMI$) if used on British-based cows or the top 50% of the breed for Brahman Influence Index (BII$) if used on Brahman-based cows.
