Summer Sizzle

4

The weather is getting consistently warmer and the days longer — what a wonderful time of year it is.

I find myself, like so many other Americans, thinking more and more about summer gatherings and spending time outside.

Hearty meals are swapped out for fresh, simplified family dinners and, in my opinion, the perfect complement to a nice summer day is beef sizzling on the grill.

May is beef month and cattlemen and Hereford breeders have a lot to celebrate — their customer, the consumer, loves beef.

According to the July 2015 Consumer Beef Index provided by the Beef Checkoff, beef continues to be one of Americans’ favorite foods, particularly with the millennial parent demographic. There is a growing consideration of beef as a top protein choice accompanied by an interest in beef recipes.

Consumers have increasingly positive opinions about beef’s taste, nutrition and value for the money — all of which they consider highly important when making purchasing decisions.

The millennial group, 80 million strong, and specifically millennial parents place greater importance on nutrition. They also, however, appreciate beef’s value for the money more than other age groups and understand how beef fits with a healthconscious diet.

We’ve heard it before, but individuals who make up this

group connect daily through social media, are more engaged in information seeking and are an active part of the conversation about beef and nutrition.

This is all great news for Hereford breeders, who, at their core, are beef producers. Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) LLC staff are working to create demand for CHB product as well as to procure supply all while maintaining the standards set by both the program and its customers.

I encourage you to visit HerefordBeef.org to see how they are reaching millennials with inviting recipes, howto’s in the kitchen and easy to understand information about the benefits of beef in a healthful diet.

And, speaking of beef and grilling, Hereford youth should take advantage of a fantastic contest hosted each year at the Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) — the Great American CHB Grill-off. Young Hereford chefs have a chance to share their creativity and to gain critical public speaking skills, all while learning to promote the product they raise. What better way is there to reach the millennial group with the great message about

Flip to Page 32 to learn more about all the great sights and attractions Madison has to offer. Just afterward on Page 35, you’ll find a preview of the JNHE. There are some really fun activities planned, including a new group painting activity.

See Page 66 for a schedule and more details about this popular summer event.

The Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) is gearing up for a “Weekend in Wine County.”

HYFA invites Hereford breeders and enthusiasts to “The Harvest II” fundraiser event at Kunde Family Winery in Sonoma, Calif., Aug. 26-27, 2016. This is a one-of-a-kind event you won’t want to miss. Page 86 has more details.

Take on the Challenge

6

As spring winds down, the excitement builds for young graduates as they begin to think about either their next steps for continuing education or the ultimate step of entering the workforce.

Over the past few weeks, the American Hereford Association’s (AHA) staff has been involved with many different youth leadership conferences. I have had the pleasure of addressing many of these groups about my journey, and I have also shared with them some of the opportunities and challenges of agriculture.

I met some of the brightest and most talented college students from across the country during both the Agriculture Future of America (AFA) and the Youth Beef Industry Congress (YBIC) conferences. The AHA hosted a group of students that attended the AFA conference, and our staff shared some of their experiences.

The National Junior Hereford Association board of directors attended the YBIC conference and joined other junior breed association boards along with juniors from state beef associations from throughout the U.S. Some of our staff was also instrumental in planning that event.

In addition, I was asked to address the freshman and sophomore ag students at Black Hawk East College. During these events, it was exciting to see the engagement and

/ May/June 2016

enthusiasm of the students for agriculture and, more specifically, the beef industry. The discussions and questions ranged from “How did you get to your current job?” to “What are the tools that you think will need to be developed to help improve production and efficiency in the industry?”

Opportunities in agriculture As I prepared to address these different groups, I was researching different sites in order to share with these groups the importance of agriculture and the opportunities and challenges these individuals will be faced with over the course of their careers. This research was fascinating and reminded me of the great job our industry does feeding a world population.

According to the American Farm Bureau Federation, there are 2.2 million farms that dot America’s rural landscape.

About 97% of the U.S. farms are operated by families, individuals, family partnerships or family corporations, and farm and ranch families comprise just about 2% of the U.S. population.

In addition, more than 21 million American workers (15% of the total U.S. workforce) produce, process and sell the nation’s food and fiber.

Also, according to Farm Bureau’s statistics, today’s farmers produce 262% more food with 2% fewer inputs (labor, seeds, feed,

fertilizer, etc.) compared with 1950’s farmers.

More specifically, according to the 2012 United States Department of Agriculture Ag Census, there were approximately 619,172 farms that specialized in beef cattle production, and the average herd size was about 40 head with an average producer age of 58 years. The economic impact is staggering, as there was $88.25 million in farm gate receipts. In 2015 the value of beef exports equaled $6.302 billion and the top export markets include Japan, Mexico, Canada, South Korea, Hong Kong and the Middle East.

As I addressed these students, the message was clear. There are plenty of opportunities to stay engaged in agriculture because all of us are challenged to continue to produce a healthy, safe and sustainable product to a growing number of consumers. These challenges will force our industry to endorse technology and be willing to take head-on the questions from consumers about how we produce our product to ensure we are conscious of leaving our God-given resources better for the next generation.

It was exciting to talk with these groups. Their members are engaged, well educated, determined and full of enthusiasm for the industry. I encouraged them to not be afraid to take on a challenge in order to create an opportunity and, really, just to enjoy the journey. HW Hereford.org

As some of you may have heard, south-central Kansas and north-central Oklahoma experienced a historic grass fire last month. The fire burned more than 400,000 acres and was recorded as the 11th largest in U.S. history.

Personally, this news hit home with me as my family ranches right west of Medicine Lodge, Kan. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but some ranchers did lose cattle, building structures and miles and miles of fence.

On a positive note, though, a lot of cedar trees were burnt, and with abundant moisture, the pastureland will come back better than ever.

After word had spread about the fire, many groups such as the Kansas Livestock Association started requesting that hay and fencing supplies be sent to people in need.

I shouldn’t have been but was overwhelmed by the selfless giving of cattlemen in Kansas and surrounding states. Semi load after semi load of hay was trucked to Medicine Lodge for donation.

It seems, though, that it almost takes hard times in life, like this, to bring everything back into perspective. It has been pretty clear to me that America’s backbone is still alive and well.

Rural America, farmers and ranchers, know how to pull together in times of crisis and are able to make it through.

/ May/June 2016

My perspective Since starting at the American Hereford Association (AHA), I have been impressed. The first four months have been very enjoyable, and I have met some tremendous cattle breeders and, better yet, just good people.

It has been quite amazing what you have done as breeders. There are more and more cattle that blend together exceptional phenotype and put together the expected progeny difference (EPD) profile needed for continued growth and acceptance of the breed within the industry. The Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) program and the National Sire Reference Program (NSRP) have really added to the strength of our genetic evaluation system. This system has allowed you as breeders to really find the differences among sires and to make genetic progression quicker.

Continue to make good selection decisions On Page 92 you will find a list of sires that have been awarded the Certified Hereford Beef Sire of Distinction (CHBS).

This list proves that you, as breeders, have taken improvement in growth and end-product merit seriously.

Rightfully so, commercial cattlemen are demanding more out of your bulls

because the packer and, ultimately, the consumer wants more as well. But understand, it must be done with balance. Selection of one trait at the expense of another trait is detrimental for the breed. The beauty of Dollar Certified Hereford Beef ($CHB) and Dollar Baldie Maternal Index ($BMI) is that both of these dollar indices are multi-trait weighted and take into account the economic weighting for each trait.

Choose carefully So as you finalize your breeding decisions for next year’s calf crop, keep a balanced but yet progressive approach in mind — regardless of whether you’re raising show cattle, replacement females, seedstock bulls or bulls for the commercial man. It is important that every Hereford breeder pull together to raise the best product possible. Doing this will only strengthen the image of the breed and keep Hereford the breed of choice in America’s cow herd.

AHA election process Each year three American Hereford Association (AHA) Directors retire from the Board and three new Directors are elected to succeed them.

The election procedure is a multi-step process.

1) Nomination of board candidates – The AHA Board of Directors executive committee selects a five-member nominating committee at-large. According to Section 3(a) of Article VI of the AHA Bylaws that were amended Oct. 29, 2015, the nominating committee shall nominate no less than three nor more than six candidates for election as Directors of the Association, each of whom shall be an active member or a representative of an active member at the time of nomination, and shall submit the names of those candidates to delegates at the meeting of delegates.

In addition, any delegate present in person may nominate any active member (including himself or herself) or any representative of an active member as a candidate for Director at the meeting of delegates.

2) Election of voting delegates – Each state elects voting delegates to attend the AHA Annual Meeting in Kansas City to vote on the slate of nominees.

Each state is entitled to one delegate for every 750 Hereford registrations recorded from Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2015.

A state must have a minimum of 375 registrations to be entitled to one delegate. If the number of registrations exceeds 750 or any multiple thereof by 375 or more, the state will be entitled to an additional delegate or delegates.

Voting quadrants for AHA Board of Directors

3) State election of voting delegates – In late April, delegate nomination postcards are mailed to all AHA members. Replies must be postmarked by June 1.

Each active member is asked to nominate one state candidate to be elected to serve as a delegate to the AHA Annual Meeting. An active member is defined as a member that registered at least one animal in the calendar year preceding the year of the election.

A state delegate ballot will be sent to each active member to vote from a list of state nominees. Each active member will vote for the entitled number of state delegates. Each state is entitled to a number of delegates based on registration count and membership count in the previous year’s registration period. A minimum of 375 registrations is required for the first delegate, and then for every 750 registrations thereafter an additional delegate is added. In addition, each state is allocated a delegate for the first 25 members and an additional delegate for every 100 members thereafter.

Weighted votes Each member delegate vote will be weighted based on the individual’s registrations as follows: Number of registrations 1-20 21-50 51-100 101-200

More than 200

Weighted votes 1 6 15 30 60

Principle place of doing business Each active member must vote in the state that is his or her principle place of doing Hereford business, i.e. ranch or farm address must be in the same state in which he or she is voting.

Election schedule April May 31 June

The U.S. is divided into four regions of representation, and each region will have at least one director.

Ridley’s Family Markets continue to be a CHB brand partner In 1984 Jerry and Connie Ridley opened their first Ridley’s Family Market in Payson, Utah. Today, their company has grown to a chain of 30 stores. Ridley’s takes pride in being a hometown food and drug store that employs valued members of the local community who enjoy serving their neighbors.

Throughout Ridley’s growth, its focus has remained the same: to provide its customers with exceptional customer service, quality products and competitive prices, compared to big box superstores. Ridley’s strives to provide both great service and value to its large and loyal customer base with stores located throughout Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada and Colorado.

“At Ridley’s Family Markets, we pride ourselves on offering superior quality product at a significant value for our customers,” Mark Ridley says. “This is why the Certified Hereford Beef program is such a great fit for us.”

Ridley’s Family Markets has been serving its stores’ communities with USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Choice Certified Hereford Beef for almost 10 years. Kenn Fultz, director of perishables, is a devoted fan of and enthusiast for CHB. “This program is a cut above all the other programs in the market,” Fultz says. “The sizing, quality and bloom in the meat case is consistent and continues to provide value to our customers.”

Ridley’s Family Markets at 32 years strong is thriving and continues the company’s time-

Unforgettable Memories A lot of people outside the cattle industry hear that I serve on the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) board and think what a great résumé builder.

However, it goes much further than that.

The relationships I’ve built and places I’ve gone, and most importantly, the juniors I have helped or impacted is what this experience is truly all about. I have had too many people to name or thank for making me who I am in this industry and being on the board was a great way to give back.

I still remember making my first trip to the Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) in Billings, Mont. As soon as my dad and I got out of the truck and stepped into the barn, I knew this was where I wanted to be. Ever since then, like many other

juniors, I have always looked forward to our family vacation at the JNHE to see my friends from across the states and to also make new friends and memories.

I may have never run for the board if Sue Rowland hadn’t given me that extra push and headed me in the right direction from the gate.

She always puts the juniors first and guides us into leadership and decision-making roles to develop us into great industry leaders like many past Kansas Junior Hereford Association board members that I’ve looked up to.

When it came time to apply to be a NJHA board candidate, I thought to myself, “Is this the best fit for me?” Now that my term is coming to an end, I could not imagine it any other way. At that moment when I decided to run I knew I wanted to give back to an organization which provided me so many skills over the years through a wide variety of contests, scholarship opportunities or relationships. It became very clear to me that the people I met through the NJHA will always be here for me.

It’s been three years; however, it feels like yesterday I was giving my candidate speech, nervously hoping I got the delegates to think I was a perfect fit to represent the NJHA. I was tremendously excited when Austin Buzanowski handed off his maroon jacket to me. I would have never guessed what close friends

I would become with the other 16 board members I served with.

During this amazing period of serving on the board, I have countless memories that I will treasure forever. These experiences are what being on the board is really all about. This is where I challenge all of you potential candidates to reflect on what the NJHA has done for you and decide if you’re up for the challenge to be an NJHA board member and to help our breed reach new heights.

I want to close with saying thank you to everyone who has ever planned for or helped at a JNHE, influencing numerous juniors in countless ways. Also, thank you to my parents, Kirk and Stephanie Jensen, who dealt with me always traveling from show to show and have been there with advice.

I would like to finish with thanking the entire American Hereford Association staff and offering a special thanks to Amy Cowan, Bailey Clanton and all the junior advisors for putting up with me the last three years. Hope to see everyone in Madison, and once again let’s prove to the industry who deserves the Best of the Barns Award in regards to junior nationals.

— Cody Jensen, NJHA chairman

Inventing Our Future The summer of 2013 in Kansas City, Mo., was hot, but didn’t even compare to one in Georgia.

Somehow though, in that arena, it felt like 95 degrees with 80% humidity. My palms were sweaty, my throat felt swollen and I could feel my heart beating in my toes.

Hearing the other awards sounded like a buzz in the distance. I could hear that someone was speaking into the microphone, but I couldn’t make out what he was saying. My head was consumed with what would happen afterwards. I knew there Hereford.org

was nothing else I could do; the results were in.

Suddenly Amy Cowan came on the mic. My head shot up. She congratulated the candidates on a wonderful week and nodded to the retirees to go ahead. This was it. One by one the retirees walked to the stands. My father had been hurt earlier in the week, so we had to sit on the front row to keep him from walking up the stairs.

I watched, in terror, as the retirees walked, one by one, up the stairs on either side of me. My heart sank.

They were going to the candidates farther up into the stands. I didn’t get a position. Just as a tear started to form in my eye, the crowd around me started cheering like crazy.

I looked up to see Matt Woolfolk running down the stands. I didn’t know what was happening. He got to the bottom, grabbed my hand and scooped me up into a huge hug. “Let’s keep it in the South,” he said, as he draped his jacket over my shoulders. My head was spinning. All I could see were familiar

faces and hands all around me. I was now a director of the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA).

As the summer of 2016 approaches, this moment is still running fresh in my mind. This was the day that opened up hundreds of opportunities for me that I wasn’t even aware of at the time. Being on the NJHA board of directors, I have been blessed with the absolute best support system that I believe has ever been possible.

From my fellow boardies, our advisors, Amy and Bailey, to the entire American Hereford Association staff and board, our team was unstoppable, and I always had someone to turn to.

Thank you all so very much.

From the mountains of Colorado to the valleys in Arkansas, I was able to travel all over the country thanks to the board and the juniors who put me here. Though our feet may ache and our stomachs may growl, working the ring and helping at shows have been the highlights of my three years serving, and given the chance, I would happily do it again.

Last, I want to thank my family, which consists of not only blood relatives, but nearly all 50 states of people who have shaped me into the woman who stands before you today.

The kindness and advice that you have all given me over the years will be something I hold onto forever; it has honestly changed me. I can’t even count how many of you have offered me food, a hand or a shoulder when I needed it most.

This amazing association has such a great power; it’s truly inspiring. They say the best way to predict the future is to invent it. I challenge our junior members to do just that. Believe in your industry, believe in your association and believe in yourselves throughout your journey, inventing our future.

— Tommie Lynne Mead, NJHA director

Leave Your Campsite Better Than You Found It Contrary to what we hear and see on television and social media, I believe there is a greater percentage of good in the world than evil. Each of us has a responsibility to propagate that good by leaving a lasting footprint marked by good deeds, not only for our families, but for our communities as well. In doing so, we enable the next generation to prosper and to be in a position to improve conditions for the subsequent generation, and on it goes.

My father, who ranched in Texas and New Mexico with my mother, taught me and my siblings early on the importance of “always leaving your campsite better than you found

it.” It’s this simple, yet profound, idea that perpetuates goodness, and if it were followed by everyone, the world would be a far greater place.

When we become passionate about something, such as our community, it becomes easy and even energizing to give of our time and our resources. Collectively, I consider Hereford breeders and the industry to be a community, one that my family and I have enjoyed being a part of for over 30 years.

My passion for this community has led me to become very active with the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA).

I see my involvement as a way to

leave my campsite a little bit better.

HYFA is a vitally important bridge to facilitate passing this passion for improving the breed and the industry from generation to generation. It creates and maintains numerous opportunities to fashion successful future leaders.

If you are reading this, it is quite likely that you, too, are passionate about the Hereford breed and want to see it prosper for generations to come. If so, I invite you to help us help our youth in having the best chance possible to attain their potential. What a great way to leave your campsite a little better than you found it. HW

Join HYFA for a wine country weekend The Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) invites hereford breeders, enthusiasts and supporters to attend “The Harvest II” fundraiser event at Kunde Family Winery in Sonoma, Calif., Aug. 26-27, 2016.

“The Harvest II” will be hosted by the Jim and Marcia Mickelson family with all proceeds going to HYFA’s Growing a Lasting Legacy campaign to benefit leadership and educational events for Hereford youth across the nation.

The event will start at Kunde Family Winery outside Sonoma on Aug. 26 with a casual dinner and entertainment by master magician and comic Jay Alexander. Saturday will include area tours, tastings and a special visit to Sonoma Mountain Herefords in Santa Rosa.

/ May/June 2016

The highlight of the wine country weekend will be Saturday evening’s sale featuring some of the breed’s most elite genetics and one-of-a-kind silent and live auction items including vacation getaways and exquisite artwork. The sale will take place on Kunde’s famous Boot Hill that has been the setting for numerous film productions.

Guests will stay at the Sheraton Sonoma County in Petaluma.

The Sheraton’s resort-like setting overlooks the river and the hotel has been named by Travel and Leisure magazine as one of the “Nation’s Top 10 Getaways near a Major City.” Event pricing and travel details are available on HerefordYouthFoundation.org, and hotel rooms will be included in the registration fee.

In 2011 “The Harvest” auction raised more than $292,000 to support Hereford youth. HW

Visit Us at JNHE This summer many of us are planning to head north to Madison, Wis., to attend the Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE). It is there at Wisconsin’s Dairy Palace that hundreds of excited Hereford enthusiasts will gather.

Even more excited are your National Hereford Women (NHW) members, who have been busily planning for various scholarships and contests and the NHW’s social and annual meeting, along with the highly anticipated National Hereford Queen’s Tea. Before we know it, we will all be packing our bags, our show and food boxes, and, most importantly, our kiddos’ bags and placing our Herefords in the trailer for the beautiful ride through America’s heartland to Madison.

Early in the week, the NHW will host the scholarship contest. Later in the week juniors will compete on behalf of their states in the illustrated speaking contest, the Great American Hereford Grilloff and extemporaneous speaking contests, just to name a few.

The NHW highly encourages all juniors to compete in one or more contests or to apply for scholarships sponsored by the NHW, the Hereford Youth Foundation of

America, the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) and our various other donors. It’s always wonderful to hear from young adults just out of the NJHA about how these contests or scholarships positively impacted their lives.

Midweek, join the NHW for its annual meeting and then later in the week for its evening adult NHW social, which is always a lot of fun.

It’s a great excuse to let the kids feed and tie the cattle out and to enjoy a little fun time with Hereford friends.

Come learn about the NHW’s busy past year and its projects that support Hereford youth.

As your ticket in, we encourage you to bring a recipe either handwritten or copied from your state or family recipe collection for us to place on our NHW recipe website. To date the NHW has more than 100 treasured recipes from Hereford families present and past. Showcasing the recipes that bring you together around the table is a great way to catalog your family’s history for generations to come. Recipe categories include main dishes, soups, appetizers, desserts and our favorite “Cooking for a Crowd,” which has become an increasingly popular addition to our site.

Also for little girls young and old, you won’t want to miss the National Hereford Queen’s Tea, hosted by National Hereford Queen Taylor Belle Matheny. It’s a fun afternoon

for our Hereford royalty to meet young ladies from across our nation, share their stories and enjoy one another’s company. Taylor Belle has been busily planning the tea that has become a favorite event each year.

Save room in your bags to bring back some of the NHW’s limited edition prints by Amanda Raithel that will be available either framed or unframed. We can certainly help you provide your next Hereford event, sale or junior show with prints for judges’ gifts or auction offerings while at the Expo, and we will pack them up for safe delivery.

This year the NHW will sell yet another fun Hereford T-shirt and will carry Hereford and western inspired pillows among other items.

The Power in Asking ‘Why?’ A business book by Simon Sinek is earning acclaim. It points out the power of understanding “why” in your business.

Sinek makes this observation: “All businesses know what they do — products and services. Most are pretty good at how they do it — strategy and tactics. Only a few can truly inspire their employees and their customers by clearly articulating why they do what they do.”

Sinek suggests that once you — or your business — harness the “why” in your efforts and convey that to others, it will elevate your success. In his book, “Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action,” Sinek offers four examples of companies that have cultivated employees and customers extremely committed to the company and its vision.

• Apple: Challenge

• Southwest Airlines: “You

the status quo.

are now free to move about the country.”

• Disney: Provide

• Medtronic: Save lives.

good, clean fun.

What do the four visions have in common? The answer is that they do not describe what the company does; they describe why the company exists.

Influencing behavior Why is focusing on why versus what so important? Sinek explains that when leaders talk about or explain “what” the business does, employees and customers process what is said in the part of the brain called the neocortex.

The neocortex is responsible for rational and analytical thinking and language. The “what” is understood here, but it does not drive behavior.

28

/ May/June 2016

Conversely, when leaders explain “why” they do things, employees and customers process what is said in the limbic brain. This part of the brain is responsible for all of our feelings — trust, loyalty, commitment. The limbic brain is responsible for human behavior and decision making.

The “why” resonates in this part of the brain. Only when “why” is clearly articulated can employees experience the emotions that lead to commitment to the vision and passion for the success of the business.

It seems very compelling that business owners and leaders should articulate why the business exists.

So, why is it so rarely done? Again, people need to understand how the brain functions.

Articulating vision — the business’s “why” — is difficult because the neocortex has difficulty verbalizing emotions that are in the limbic brain. And, the limbic brain has no capacity for language; language is solely in the neocortex.

Thus, successful communication of the vision — the “why” — often requires the use of stories, symbols, logos and images.

Articulating “why” A quote from “Start with Why” pinpoints the challenge for the owner/leader: “If the leader of the organization can’t clearly articulate why the organization exists in terms beyond its products or services, then how does he expect employees to know why to come to work?”

It is easy to focus on what the business does — raise cattle, grow crops, sell hay, etc. It is much more difficult to articulate the “why.”

Sinek suggests that “why” must come from the founder. It is the reason the founder took the risk and endured the hard work to

start the business. Think about the history of your farm or agribusiness.

Why was it started?

Often, that “why” is still present today or has evolved into a specific “why” for the current generation. It needs to be clarified and articulated so all of the workforce, trusted advisors and customers understand it and can become passionate about sustaining the business — is it the lifestyle, is it to secure similar opportunities for the next generation, is it to produce quality genetics that influence the industry?

Sinek argues that the greatest challenge for every business leader is to pass that vision — the “why” — to his or her successor. He gives several examples where businesses have struggled because the leader failed in continuing the “why” to the next generation of leaders.

Specifically, Steve Jobs had to return to Apple to reinstill the “why” in the business. And, Sam Walton’s vision was not about low prices; it was to serve people. He did not, however, pass that vision on, and Walmart changed dramatically after his death.

The bottom line: Think about and reflect on why your business exists.

Determine the powerful “why” that has sustained the business over the decades. An even greater challenge is to find ways to articulate this “why” to your family, especially your children, and to your employees, trusted advisors and customers. What stories and symbols can be used to convey the “why”? Then, make the “why” the cornerstone of transitioning your farm or other business to the next generation or successor.

Henry Vilas Zoo

at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, July 9-15.

Hereford exhibitors will be greeted by a state-of-the-art facility that can house up to 2,500 head with the recent addition of two

new barns — the New Holland Pavilions. The week will center on the cattle shows, as well as offer a variety of educational, leadership and motivational activities for participating youth.

Families can also find ample “fun in the sun” during their week in Madison. Downtown Madison is located between Lakes Mendota and Monona, which gives the city its trademark name of “Lake, City, Lake.”

Outdoor options Paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing and biking are a few of the outdoor activities offered along the lake shore (Find rentals at visitmadison.com/ things-to-do/sports-and-recreation/) The Henry Vilas Zoo offers free admission and is home to more than 200 different species of animals. Exhibits include a

Tropical Rainforest Aviary, lions and tigers, monkeys, apes and Artic Passage — featuring grizzly bears, polar bears and harbor seals. Younger children will especially enjoy the Children’s Zoo area which features a carousel and electric train. The zoo is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. (vilaszoo.org) The Madison Mallards are the city’s minor league baseball team — and they have a few home games scheduled during the week of July 9-15. Each game serves up great baseball along with fun fan participation with between-inning contests. Locals say it’s one of the best ways to spend a summer evening in Madison.

“Beautiful” and a “must see” are how most TripAdvisor reviewers describe it — and it boasts being voted one of the top ten most inspiring gardens in North America

by Horticulture magazine.

Olbrich Botanical Gardens Visitors can stroll among 16 acres of outdoor gardens, including a two-acre rose garden, a perennial garden, a sunken garden and an herb garden. The Bolz Conservatory features exotic plants, flowers, orchids, birds and a waterfall. The Thai Pavilion is another highlight. It was crafted without nails or screws

by Thai artisans. (olbrich.org) The Wisconsin State Capitol is ranked as the second most popular TripAdvisor activity in Madison.

Quirky museums

• For little tykes, the Madison Children’s Museum is a fun getaway. Activities include exploring the city of “Possible-opolis,” using pulleys and a harness to move Gertrude the cow, running in a giant gerbil wheel or playing a video game with giant controllers. (madisonchildrensmuseum.org)

• Take a short drive to Middleton, Wis., and tour the National Mustard Museum, which features 5,000 different types of mustards from all 50 states and over 60 different countries. Of course there’s also a gift shop with lots of mustard-themed items. (mustardmuseum.com)

• In nearby Mount Horeb, Wis., the Wally

More of Madison For great shopping and restaurants, spend some time on State Street — a bustling pedestrian mall that links the State Capitol to UW-Madison.

You’ll find specialty gift and accessory shops, an indie bookstore and “made in Wisconsin” items at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art gift shop, as well as the Wisconsin Historical Museum gift shop.

Madison’s Lakes Madison hosts five area lakes: Mendota, Monona, Waubesa, Kegonsa and Wingra.

Whether you’re looking to enjoy cruises and boat rentals, fishing or kayaking, you’re sure to enjoy every moment on Wisconsin waters.

If you’d rather be in the lake than on it, there are more than a dozen parks and beaches to help you beat the heat during the summer months.

In addition to the beaches, Madison also has a brand-new public swimming pool. The Irwin A. and Robert D. Goodman Swimming Pool is complete with two water slides and several play areas for children.

The Greater Madison area also offers a wealth of waterfront restaurants that allow you to savor unique flavors—and watch the sun set while you dine.

For more information check out visitmadison.com/things-to-do/ lakes/on-the-lakes/. HW

Last but not least, to beat the summer heat dessert lovers may want to seek out the perfect cool treat — ice cream! The Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream Co. along State Street boasts more than 40 homemade flavors including one dubbed the “Exhausted Parent,” which is bourbon-spiked espresso ice cream swirled with bittersweet chocolate chunks. (chocolateshoppeicecream.com) On the University of Wisconsin campus, the Babcock Hall Dairy Store is the flagship of the University’s respected dairy program. Known for generous scoops of campusmade ice cream, some of their signature flavors include Irish Crème, Angel’s Food and Orange Custard Chocolate Chip.

‘A Hereford Scene in 2016’ Plan to attend the 2016 Junior National Hereford Expo in Madison, Wis.

T

he Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) is around the corner, and Hereford youth looking for the latest information on contests and scholarships can visit JrHereford.org to find rules, entry deadlines and applications.

JNHE entry packets, including the spring The Advantage newsletter, were mailed to all active National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) members in early April.

Electronic versions of the forms are available at JrHereford.org. Youth

can also submit entries online at HerefordJuniorNational.com.

The final entry deadline is June 1 and the early bird deadline is May 1. Paper entries will only be accepted until May 1.

Welcome to Wisconsin On behalf of the Wisconsin Junior Hereford Association, I would like to invite each of you to the 2016 Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) in Madison, Wis. We are so excited to host this wonderful family event and can’t wait for you to enjoy our state and the fun activities we are planning.

Of course we have a couple new events up our sleeves!

Starting with the opening ceremonies on Sunday, there will be an opportunity to make new friends from other states with a social mixer where you can exchange complementary state pins with other exhibitors. This mixer will be similar to what the Olympic athletes do upon arrival with Olympians from other countries. You will be trading your state pins for other state pins, while meeting new friends.

Don’t forget to bring your cell phones and a selfie stick.

Why you ask? It’s a surprise, we’ll tell you when you get here.

Following opening ceremonies we will host a Celebrate Wisconsin Brat Feed, all highlighted by the best country and western band in Wisconsin — “Madison County.”

I know there may be some grumbles when you find out 3-on-3 basketball has been cancelled, but we have a new event that is sure to be even more fun, and guarantees no one will get hurt. You can trade in your basketball shoes and your headband for a paintbrush and an imagination. Our painting event is sure to make everyone happy and you will definitely have a good time showing off your one-of-a-kind artwork through the barn. This painting event isn’t just for

36

/ May/June 2016

the juniors, it’s for boys and girls, moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, anyone can sign up to join us.

The painting party is on Monday and you may choose between a morning or an afternoon session.

While you are in Madison I hope you are able to enjoy a few of our local attractions too. Very close to the Alliant Energy Center is our zoo. It’s always nice to get away from the barn for a couple hours and the zoo is perfect for that, plus the price is right — FREE. There will be several other suggestions of family activities to do while in Madison that will be in the JNHE welcome bag.

Our juniors and advisors have put a lot of work into making this the most memorable junior nationals ever, so we are super excited to include everyone in on the fun. More surprises and activities are still in the making, but you can expect nothing less than marvelous. Further information and details will be sent out to the state advisors regarding our extravagant events, so stay tuned.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family to Wisconsin.

Briana Katzenberger, Wisconsin Junior Hereford Association President

Example of cattle stalls for JNHE

Stalling policy JNHE participants and families are encouraged to review the barn and tie out policies for the 2016 event. The Alliant Energy Center prohibits taping, stapling, nailing, welding or the use of screw and adhesives on any livestock stalling or building surface. Heavy-duty zip ties are recommended for stall assembly. Please note that altering or damaging any county-owned property will result in damage repair or replacement with fees assessed to the exhibitor.

Generators are not allowed inside the barns; however, the use of generators placed outside the barns while plugged inside the barns is encouraged. Due to the size of the barns, it’s recommended to bring adequate extension cords to ensure power needs are met for exhibitors.

This year tie outs will be preassigned by state and marked by state advisors — no need to arrive early to mark tie outs. All cattle will be tied on panels provided in the tie out area and no individual pens will be built in tie outs. continued on page 38...

Panels are 7’ tall × 10’ wide with bottom tie 2’ from the ground and top tie 4’ from the ground.

Group painting activity Get your creative juices flowing with the fun group painting activity Monday, July 11, and at the end of the day you will have the perfect souvenir of some one-of-a-kind Hereford artwork, created by you. You can choose between a morning session from 9-11:30 a.m. or an afternoon session from 1-3:30 p.m.

This is open to all ages, exhibitors, parents, grandparents and friends. Cost is $30 to pre register and $40 on site if space allows.

Painters between the ages of 7-10 will need to bring along a parent and if the parent would like to paint on their own picture they will need to sign up as well. All materials will be provided, just bring along your creativity.

JNHE Judges Owned heifers Lydell Meier resides in Clinton, Tenn. He and his wife, Holly, and three children, Andrew, Annie and Alyssa, own and operate Gamble Angus Farm.

Their 150 head operation focuses on raising and selling Angus heifers, and the program has been fortunate to produce numerous national champions at the Lydell Meier National Western Stock Show (NWSS) and the North American International Livestock Exposition (NAILE).

He has judged at both the NAILE and the NWSS. Meier was born and raised in Stonewall, Texas, and he and his brothers competed heavily in showing steers and heifers throughout their 4-H and FFA days.

Meier graduated from Texas Tech University in 1999 with a dual degree in animal science and general business.

Bred-and-owned heifers and cow-calf pairs Todd Herman, Harrod, Ohio, works with the show and sale cattle at Jones Show Cattle, a Maine Anjou and Simmental operation.

Herman grew up showing Hereford cattle and graduated from Michigan State University. Prior to working for Jones Show Cattle, he spent three years as the show and sale cattle manager for Buck Cattle Todd Herman Co. in Oklahoma and worked at Star Lake Cattle Ranch for 30 years.

He has judged various cattle shows across the nation and Canada, including the NWSS, the NAILE, the American Royal, the Fort Worth Stock Show, the San Antonio Stock Show, the Houston Livestock Show, the Canadian Western Agribition and The Royal in Toronto, as well as the 2013 Junior National Hereford Expo steer show.

In 1987 Herman was recognized as the Hereford Herdsman of the Year. He and his wife, Kim, have a daughter, Kasey, who was actively involved in the National Junior Hereford Association.

Tyler Winegardner was born, raised and currently resides in the Lima, Ohio, area.

He and his wife, Natalie, are co-owners of Winegardner Show Cattle, along with his family. They sell around 100 head a year and market cattle through their annual production female sale the first Saturday in November.

/ May/June 2016

After high school, Winegardner attended Black Hawk East, where he competed on the most highly decorated junior college livestock judging team in history. He then transferred to Michigan State University to study animal science and was a member of the livestock judging team there.

Winegardner has judged many shows nationwide and in Canada. He and Natalie have two boys, Beckett, 3, and Ryker, 1.

Peewee and junior showmanship Amanda Schnoor is an agriculture professor at Modesto Junior College located in Modesto, Calif.

She and her two sisters, Amanda and Sidney, grew up traveling the country and competing and showing on many different levels in the livestock industry. In her youth, she was active in the National Amanda Schnoor Junior Angus Association.

She attended Modesto Junior College, where she was on the judging team. She furthered her education at Oregon State University and also participated on its livestock judging team.

Following graduation, she went to the University of Missouri, but when an opportunity became available to teach at one of her alma maters, she took advantage.

She continues to travel to shows with her younger sister and finds time to judge shows across the country — most recently at the NWSS, the Iowa Beef Expo steer show and the Western Regional Angus Show in Reno, Nev.Â

Senior and intermediate showmanship Luke and Stacy Lemenager and their 12 year old daughter, Paige, reside in Hudson, Ill. Together they own and operate Lemenager Cattle, a purebred Angus cow herd, marketing show heifers, bulls and steers.

Luke is a graduate of Lakeland Luke and Stacy Lemenager Junior College and the University of Illinois. He was a member of the livestock judging team at both institutions and enjoys judging cattle across the country and especially values the opportunity to judge youth shows.

Luke is a district sales manager for Stone Seed, a Monsanto Company. Stacy, also a graduate of the University of Illinois, is a business insurance specialist for State Farm. Along with Paige, they have a passion for showing cattle competitively and supporting the families and junior showmen they have the opportunity to sell cattle to. HW

Great feet and legs. Beautiful to watch on the move.

He has grow written all over him. His picture and numbers say the rest.

Protein-Rich Diet Benefits Weight Loss New research shows that high-quality protein helps increase physical function during weight loss in older obese adults.

by Melissa Jackson

N

ew research published in the Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences shows that eating more protein from foods like lean beef, as part of a reduced-calorie diet, can help obese older adults with limited ability to exercise to lose weight and increase physical function.

This new research, supported by the beef checkoff, contributes to the growing body of evidence that shows lean beef and other high-quality protein foods are beneficial for health, including overweight and obese people looking to reduce weight.

Obesity in older adults contributes to negative health outcomes, leading to a potential loss of independence due to reduced muscle strength and limited ability to perform activities of daily living. Duke University Medical Center researchers Connie Bales and Kathryn Porter Starr hypothesized that enhancing the quantity and quality of dietary protein at each meal during a weight loss intervention would help protect muscle mass and improve balance, lower-body strength and walking speed in obese older adults with functional limitations.

“Until recently, weight-loss regimens were not recommended for obese older adults due to concerns about further loss of muscle mass, especially in those who could not exercise,” Bales says.

“While more recent research shows that engaging in exercise

64

/ May/June 2016

may preserve lean mass in obese older adults, we wanted to look at an intervention that would allow these individuals to start losing weight without exercise to account for functional impairments that may make regular exercise difficult.”

High-quality protein, improved physical function In the study, those who ate a reducedcalorie diet higher in high-quality lean protein had greater gains in physical function measured by balance, lower body strength and walking speed, compared to those who ate a diet lower in protein.

Although the increase in overall dietary protein was modest between the two groups (1.2 vs. 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day), improvements in function were significantly higher in the protein group. The higher protein diet included at least 30 grams of lean, high-quality protein like beef (e.g. Lean Ground Beef, Deli Roast Beef and Flank Steak), along with other lean meats and poultry, low fat dairy foods and eggs at breakfast, lunch and dinner.

“High-quality protein like lean beef has unique benefits for health,” says Shalene McNeill, PhD, RD, who serves as executive director of human nutrition research for the checkoff.

“A substantial body of evidence shows the nutrients in beef, such as protein, can help satisfy hunger and maintain a healthy weight and build and maintain muscle. Beef is an important source of nutrients, including iron, zinc and B-vitamins, for optimal health.”

Although more research is needed, results from this study are encouraging and support the idea that protein-enhanced meals, as part of a reduced-calorie diet, can foster improvements in physical function during periods of weight loss in obese older adults.

Making Hay Timing and type are everything when it comes to producing quality hay.

by Heather Smith Thomas

E

ach year cattlemen rely on hay to get them through the winter months or dry seasons. Harvesting a successful crop in the summertime ensures supply when needed. Timing of harvest makes all the difference in hay quality. Poor harvesting conditions and methods can reduce

/ May/June 2016

a good hay crop to a poor one — with less nutrient quality and more dust or mold.

Glenn Shewmaker, University of Idaho forage specialist, says the stage of harvest is important, especially in terms of plans for selling or feeding hay. For dry cows, mature hay may be used,

whereas for cows with calves at side, early cut, immature plants that are higher in protein are ideal.

Relative maturity can be easily determined. If it’s alfalfa, look for buds or flowers. If it’s grass hay, look for boot stage or seed heads to indicate more maturity. “One problem with mixed hay is that one species is generally ahead of the other in maturity, so the timing of cutting must be a compromise,” Shewmaker says.

Kevin Sedivec, North Dakota State University professor of range science, says harvest strategy will be different for grass hay than for a stand of straight alfalfa or a mixed stand of grass and alfalfa.

“Here in the Northern Plains, a lot of producers don’t cut their grass hay until after July 4. I am sure it’s tradition because they’ve done it this way for many decades.

“Hay readiness and weather generally make it better to cut it earlier than that, or at least have some flexibility in when you cut it.

Weather is probably a reason people wait until early July, because on the northern plains it is usually warmer by then, and a little more breeze, and lower risk for rain on the cut hay,” Sedivec says.

Grass hay The best time to cut hay, however, particularly grass hay on the Northern Plains, is just after

Hereford.org

Summer Management boot stage, right before heading, Sedivec says.

“This is when you can optimize both quantity and quality. We did studies on cutting grasses for hay, looking at timing. We cut a different piece of the field every two weeks.

When you get to the heading stage (just after the boot stage) versus the seed-set stage, you have about 90 to 95% of the potential growth of that plant. The quality is still fairly high. The protein level at that stage is about 9 to 10% depending on the type of grass, and this is about the quality you’d need for a lactating beef cow,” Sedivec explains.

This stage of growth occurs earlier in southern regions and later in northern regions, which have a shorter growing season.

“If you wait until July 4, you’ll be in the seed set stage,” Sedivec says. “You might gain 5% more production total mass and quantity but the quality drops from the 9 or 10% protein level down to about 6 or 7%, which now puts it at a quality that’s only good for a dry cow. So I always tell producers that if they can cut their grass hay before July 1, they’ll have a much better quality and won’t give up very much production.”

Sedivec adds that if pastures have adequate moisture, grasses will regrow faster if cut at that stage.

Once the plant starts to produce a seed, it puts all its energy into seed production and not much energy toward grass/leaf production.

“By contrast, if you cut it before the heading stage, it will still try to regrow leaf tissue, because it still wants to grow and produce seed.

The best time to cut grass is the boot stage, for quality, but you give up about 30% of your growth,” Sedivec says. This benefit is why producers should compromise a little bit of quality to get more tonnage, waiting until just before it heads.

“Our use of the detergent fiber test has often led us to discount grass hay too much,” says Shewmaker. “There are higher fiber levels in grass hay, but it is a more digestible fiber. Some of the newer tests, like the digestible Hereford.org

NDF (neutral detergent fiber) and relative forage quality, as opposed to older tests for relative feed value are better measures, and more accurately compare grass and mixed hay with alfalfa.”

The time of day grass hay is cut can also make a difference in quality, especially in terms of sugar content. Research in Kansas and Nebraska showed that if grass is cut in the evening, the sugar content will be higher than if it’s cut in the morning. Shewmaker explains that the plants accumulate sugars and starches during the day through photosynthesis and then use up these nutrients at night as they grow.

Time of day may also be a factor in terms of humidity. “If you are cutting it in the morning, it will be wetter if there is dew on it, and it might be too wet to cut. The third to fourth week in June, however, it will be a little drier, with less humidity, and you can usually get it cut and put up in pretty good shape,” says Sedivec.

Alfalfa hay “The biggest thing with alfalfa is what you plan for it in terms of feeding — such as dairy cattle, versus beef cattle,” Sedivec says. If producers want dairy quality alfalfa, they need to cut it in the bud stage and well ahead of any blooms.

Biomass is given up for that first cutting when alfalfa is cut early, but if it’s cut in the bud stage, there is almost always a gain of an extra cutting later in the season.

Shewmaker says there are hay prediction sticks but most cattlemen and hay producers look at relative maturity.

“The rule of thumb when cutting alfalfa for beef cattle is to cut it when it’s about 10% bloomed,” Sedivec says. “I’m not a big fan of that rule, because by the time you see blooms you don’t have much time to be in that window. If you see a field 10% bloomed, it can be at 20% by the very next day. Once it starts blooming it goes fast. When I see one bloom, it’s time to cut that field. You do give up a little quality, for beef cattle, once it starts to bloom, but the relative feed value will still be in the upper 140 to 150 continued on page 70...

...Making Hay continued from page 69

range, versus 175 to 190 if it’s still in the bud stage,” he says.

Sedivec explains that waiting to cut until alfalfa just starts to bloom causes only a 10% loss in the potential biomass. “I don’t recommend waiting any longer because once it starts to bloom it gets a lot more stem and there is also more leaf shatter when baling it. When it is this mature, any class of livestock will do more sorting when you feed it; they’ll try to eat just the leaves and sort out the stems,” Sedivec says. Leaves will be lost if they shatter or if the wind is blowing while hay is being fed, or they will fall off the stems and be trampled into the mud.

“When the hay is at that stage of maturity you have to watch the timing of baling, to make sure it’s not too dry or leaves will fall off,” Sedivec says. “You need enough humidity to keep the leaves on, but not so much moisture that the hay will mold.”

Cattlemen may have to bale in the late evening just as the dew comes on and quit when the dew gets heavy.

“Good hay producers have a feel for this when baling. They can tell, just by the equipment, if the hay starts to get a little ‘tough’ which means it has too much moisture,” Sedivec says.

Shewmaker says some hay producers use moisture meters to check the hay and to help them determine when to bale a field, though some who’ve been putting up

70

/ May/June 2016

hay for a long time have an intuitive sense for the moisture levels in the hay just by feeling the stems.

“We recommend using a moisture meter, and most of these are designed for bales. They don’t work as well in a windrow. One of my colleagues, Ron Thaemert, developed a tool made from PVC pipe, which compresses a forage sample from a windrow. You can use this probe to measure moisture before you even pull the baler into the field. You can also go by feel, scratching the cuticle on the stems, or various twisting and snap tests to check stem dryness.

We advise using both new and old technology,” says Shewmaker.

“When everyone was doing loose hay or small bales, moisture content was easier to target. You could have moisture as high as 16 to 18% and ensure good leaf attachment with alfalfa hay.” Moisture could be higher in small bales, due to more handling and low volume of hay compared with the large bales.

“There’s a bigger window for harvest with small bales, allowing you to still put it up dry. With the lower capacity, however, you had to spend more time baling to do the same acreage,” he says.

The large bales are denser and, therefore, a lower moisture level is crucial. “To meet the target moisture of 13% and no more than 15% without preservative, is a fine line. Most people try to get the hay dried down to about 12% and then get a slight dew or even

just a ‘toughness’ in the evening so leaves will hang on better. It still won’t be as good as it would be with small bales, where you can get up around 15 to 18% moisture without it spoiling. It’s challenging, with 13% average moisture for alfalfa with large bales and a smaller window to target.”

Producers might start out with the hay too wet and end up with it too dry before they finish baling.

Grass/alfalfa mix Sedivec recommends cutting mixed hay based on the maturity stage of the alfalfa, not the grass. “When you start to see alfalfa bloom, it should be cut, even though the grass won’t be quite ready. The alfalfa usually matures more quickly, starting to bloom before the grass is in the boot stage. So you give up some biomass on the grass.

If you wait until you see that first bloom in the alfalfa you are giving up about 20% of the potential biomass for the grass, but still have a nice high quality feed that works well for almost any class of livestock,” Sedivec says.

There are certain grasses that do better with alfalfa than others because they match the alfalfa growth cycle better and this similarity in growth pattern makes it easier to cut at the best time for both the grass and the alfalfa.

“There are also some grasses that regrow better, so you can get a second crop—either for hay or grazing — so you still have a mix of grass and alfalfa versus all alfalfa in the regrowth,” Sedivec explains.

Grasses that regrow best that match alfalfa include meadow brome and orchard grass. “One thing I like about meadow brome is that it is a bunchgrass and not a sod-forming grass, so it doesn’t choke out the alfalfa. The alfalfa will last a lot longer. I have seen some meadow brome/alfalfa stands that are 30 years old and look the same today as when they were planted in the 1980’s,” he says. This meadow brome/alfalfa combination eliminates the cost of reseeding. HW Hereford.org

New forage index for ranking hay quality Hay is often tested for nutrient levels.

Tools used for hay analyses include analytical tests for crude protein levels (CP) and fiber components, stated as ADF (acid detergent fiber) and NDF (neutral detergent fiber).

Some tests use an index system such as RFQ (relative feed quality), which is a good equation but costly; it requires additional nutrient analysis. Relative feed value (RFV) is the most common index used when people compare different batches of hay.

According to Fred Muller, DVM and owner at Ag Health Laboratories in Sunnyside, Wa., and Lynn Van Wieringen, ruminant nutritionist and lab manager, there is a newer index that works better.

Their lab has been doing feed analyses for many years and began using the digestible organic matter index (DOMI), a formula created by Cumberland Valley Analytical Services (CVAS), a feed analytic lab in Maryland.

The typical ranking system for many years is RFV. “This index was created by nutritionists, to have one number that would show the quality of a hay sample,” Muller explains.

“If you are comparing different fields, or buying or selling hay, you could use it to see differences in quality, which can help determine the value of that hay. RFV has been a standard in the industry for more than 20 years, but there have been problems and limitations with it,” he says.

Van Wieringen says one of the limitations is that RFV merely looks at two fiber values — ADF and NDF — to come up with one number and does not take

Hereford.org

into account other nutrients in the hay, such as crude protein. It also does not take into account the digestibility of the fiber.

“One of the problems here in the West is that there is often a lot of soil contamination in hay, which will elevate the ash content and can skew the RFV value downward. A large portion of the ash will show up as fiber, in this test,” she explains.

Hay can be contaminated when wind blows dust over a field and it settles onto the growing crop. Traffic along a nearby gravel road on a windy day can spread clouds of dust over large areas of a field.

“Dirt can also get into the hay when harvested,” Muller says. “Some of the newer rakes pick up more dirt as windrows are raked together. Rain can splatter dirt onto the plants.” Those forages would test higher in ash.

“These are some of the limitations of the RFV index,” Van Wieringen says. “There was a need for a different ranking system.

It’s nice to have an index value because it is just one number — rather than having to compare multiple numbers. If you are looking at different alfalfa hay samples you may look at some of the nutrient analyses but it is nice to have one number to help with the ranking.”

Ag Health Laboratories is an affiliate of CVAS, which developed the DOMI. “We’ve had a lot of interest in this index because it removes ash from the calculation and removes the indigestible fiber,” Van Wieringen says. “It evaluates quality more than RFV does because it looks at digestible organic matter in the sample, which will contain all other nutrients such

as crude protein and readily available carbohydrates.”

Muller says the DOMI evaluates protein, which RFV does not do, and discounts for high ash levels, which RFV doesn’t do very well, and takes into account fiber digestibility, which RFV doesn’t do.

“Those are the main big differences that make DOMI a more valuable tool,” she says. “CVAS has been reporting the DOMI is as pounds of organic matter per ton of feed. If you have a value of 1,300 lb. of digestible organic matter in a ton of hay, that would be better than hay with 1,100 lb. value. This index makes it simple and easy to understand.”

To get a DOMI, the hay is sampled the same, but it is important to provide a core sample of multiple bales from a stack.

Producers can order a hay probe, or borrow one from a local Extension office.

“We’re now using smaller diameter hay cores. This allows us to sample more bales, because we need a random sampling from the stack and not just one or two bales,” he says.

“We want a one-quart baggie of sample, and there should be at least eight to 10 bales represented, and 15 or more is even better. It depends on the size of your hay probe, however, regarding how many will fit in the sample bag.”

A random sampling is ideal to get a true picture of the hay quality. For instance, in a field of grass/alfalfa, some bales will be predominantly alfalfa and some may be mostly grass. HW

Summer Sickness The cause of summer pneumonia in calves is not easy to determine.

by Heather Smith Thomas

P

neumonia can affect calves of any age. Though most of the bacterial pathogens that cause pneumonia are already present in the calf’s upper respiratory tract, they become a problem in the lungs only when immune defenses are compromised — such as by viral infections or stress.

One of the most frustrating respiratory infections in nursing calves has been called “summer pneumonia.” The cause is not always easy to determine — especially since cases may appear during good conditions when producers don’t think of these calves as being stressed.

/ May/June 2016

Grotelueschen, the University of Nebraska; David Smith, Mississippi State University (previously at the University of Nebraska); and Aimee Woolums, the University of Georgia, all worked on a threestate study in Nebraska and the Dakotas comparing ranches that experienced this problem with other ranches in the same veterinary practices that have not had the disease.

Smith, an epidemiologist, spent several years investigating a number of summer pneumonia outbreaks in Nebraska herds.

He consulted with Woolums to design the study since she has expertise in immunology and the use of vaccines to control respiratory disease in cattle.

“We know a lot more about weaning and post-weaning

respiratory disease in calves and how to prevent and treat it,” Daly says. “If we can minimize those calves’ stress levels at weaning and do a good job of vaccinating at that age, we see fewer problems,” he says.

By contrast, pneumonia in nursing calves has been challenging.

Woolums says there is very little in the veterinary-scientific literature about risk factors for summer pneumonia, compared to feedlot pneumonia.

“There is a lot of data about dairy calf pneumonia but almost nothing on pneumonia in beef calves at that age. We are trying to understand why some ranches and farms have a problem and others don’t. Some have a problem with it year after year, while others never do,” she says.

Daly says it’s frustrating that even with reducing stress in younger calves and using good vaccination programs, these methods are not working to prevent disease as uniformly as they do for the postweaning respiratory problems.

“There might be some management practices in those herds that put their cattle more at risk,” Smith says. “Gathering cattle for AI (artificial insemination), sorting, exposure to dust, etc. may favor transmission of viruses or otherwise compromise the immune system. We don’t always know which of these factors might be important.”

In some herds, pneumonia occurs in calves out on the range without those activities.

“We looked at a large number of farms that have had cases, and comparing them with farms that haven’t had issues — in a similar location and period of time,” Daly says. “We wanted to see if we could discover factors that make things more favorable for calf health on some farms, or anything that could help producers prevent this disease. Some environmental factors are hard to control. In some instances calves are getting sick out on summer range. We don’t know what’s happening. We can Hereford.org

Summer Management understand the stress of transport, weaning, dusty corrals, etc. but often this is different,” says Daly.

Some ranchers have problems in June to July, while others have sickness in very young calves soon after birth. Some have pneumonia in older calves the month before weaning.

“These calves respond to treatment, but for awhile it really knocks their weight gain.

Sometimes there is scarring and permanent damage in the lungs and those calves don’t do as well later,” Daly says.

Multiple factors The researchers looked at various factors, such as gathering cows and calves for AI synchronization programs or branding.

“The calves are apart from their mothers just a short period of time and we wouldn’t think it could be enough stress to affect the calves, but maybe this facilitates transmission of bacteria or viruses,” Daly says. There may be multiple factors working together.

On some operations, the ranchers move cattle periodically for rotational intensive grazing, or there may be sub-populations brought together at different times such as for branding or vaccinating.

“Mingling cattle from different sources is a well-known risk factor for feedlot BRD (bovine respiratory disease), but we don’t know for sure if mingling young calves from different sub-populations on the same ranch can also increase the risks for respiratory disease,” Woolums says.

Daly says, similar to scours, summer pneumonia may be multifactorial. Colostrum intake has been looked at along with calves’ ability to respond to vaccine at different ages.

Weather, like a late spring storm or a cold rainy spell in early summer, might be a contributing factor in some situations.

“A respiratory pathogen may be circulating, and perhaps there have been some inapparent mild Hereford.org

infections and all it takes is a little extra stress to put them over the edge,” Smith says.

There may be some genetic differences in the way calves are able to mount a good immune response. “We are just scratching the surface of that possibility,” Daly says. “We know that crossbred cattle have hybrid vigor and part of that characteristic includes more hardiness and disease resistance.

There may also be some subtle genetic differences among cattle that we don’t yet know about.”

Case-control study Part of this research was a casecontrol study in which researchers compared management practices of herds that were affected with summer pneumonia with practices of herds that didn’t experience this problem. Smith says, “We now have the results of this study, which were presented at the annual AABP (American Association of Bovine Practitioners) meeting in September 2015.”

The major findings were that larger herds were more likely to have problems. “If they practiced intensive grazing or used AI they were also more likely to have problems,” he says. Anything that stresses or confines the calves or separates them from their mothers more than they would be otherwise can be a factor.

“These are all practices in which cattle have more opportunity to share pathogens within the group, whether it’s being congregated more tightly during AI procedures, or other opportunity for effective contacts with other cattle during intensive grazing or mob grazing,” he says.

“Ranchers have told us anecdotally that as the industry has gotten better at grass management and intensive grazing we’ve seen more incidence of calf pneumonia. This doesn’t mean that these practices (intensive grazing, AI, etc.) are bad, but everything has a downside.

There are many good reasons to intensively manage grazing and breeding, but producers need to be aware of the fact that as they increase stocking densities, or any opportunities for one calf to have close contact with another one, it does increase the risk for disease — just like sending your kids to day care or kindergarten.”

Smith says cattlemen should pay attention to ways they can minimize that risk.

The cases in the study were herds that experienced a significant amount of pre-weaning pneumonia that were compared with nearby herds that had not experienced problems.

Daly says, “By using herds in the same location and time frame, continued on page 76...

May/June 2016 /

...Summer Sickness continued from page 75

we hoped to remove some of the regional and environmental differences. There were neighboring ranches in which one had problems and the other didn’t, so we were trying to find out if there are differences in how they manage and co-mingle cattle, move cattle, or administer vaccination programs.”

For each case herd, researchers looked at two control herds.

Woolum says, “At that point we were simply identifying management practices associated with summer pneumonia, and just because two things are associated doesn’t necessarily mean that one thing causes the other.”

In-herd comparisons The researchers gathered additional data from some of the herds that have had problems.

“If they have individual calf treatment records, we asked them to share those with us,” says Woolums. “Then we could compare characteristics of calves that get summer pneumonia with calves that don’t, on ranches where summer pneumonia occurs. That’s the ‘calf

level’ risk factor analysis. So we were working on two things — what makes a certain ranch more likely to get summer pneumonia versus a ranch that doesn’t, and what makes an individual calf more likely to get this problem, versus a calf that doesn’t.”

Age of calves can be a factor, but one of the differences these researchers have seen is that the age of the dam plays a role. “We see this with calf scours, as well.

The first calvers may not give their calves as much immunity through colostrum,” says Woolums.

Their calves are more likely to get respiratory disease and/or scours, simply because there are not as many antibodies in a heifer’s colostrum compared to that of an older cow that has had more chance to build stronger immunity. The older cow may also have a higher quantity of colostrum and have better maternal bonding skills that favor the calf nursing sooner.

“The other pattern is outbreaks of pneumonia — many calves getting sick,” Smith says. “These tend to be older calves, 120-150 days of age. This could be because

Mail-survey study The researchers studying summer pneumonia also conducted a mail survey, hoping to gain insight into the problem.

“We did an earlier study, and although it was not as strong in scientific design as the study we recently completed, it provided support for the concern that certain management practices are associated with summer pneumonia,” says Woolums. “This study was a mail survey of producers in Georgia, Florida, West Virginia, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska.

We mailed a list of questions to cow-calf producers, asking about their management and whether they had calf pneumonia. We did find some significant associations,” she says.

“In that survey we looked at summer pneumonia in two different ways — whether or not the producers saw any calves with respiratory disease, and also the proportion of calves that they treated for pneumonia. Some things were associated with whether they saw respiratory disease, and different things were associated with the proportion of calves they treated for respiratory disease. For example, if a farm had calf diarrhea they were more likely to also see calves with respiratory disease. If a farm did AI (artificial insemination), they were more likely to treat a larger proportion of their calves,” says Woolums.

Those calves may have experienced stress, being gathered and sorted away from their mothers.

Depending on the conditions — whether it was low stress handling, the weather was hot or inclement or corrals were dusty — there might have been factors making them more vulnerable. “It’s also possible that when the calves are sorted away from their mothers and grouped together they have more opportunity to spread respiratory viruses or bacteria among themselves,” she says. HW

the majority of those calves are past the age when they would be covered by maternal antibodies and have not yet mounted enough of their own immunity.”

There is a gap of time between early protection from mama and the calf building its own strong immunity.

The researchers tried to find differences within that herd in terms of calf age or calves from heifers versus older cows, time of calving, time of infection, etc.

“These could be factors within a particular herd that might give clues as to why some calves got sick and others didn’t,” Daly explains.

This data came from only a few herds since most producers don’t keep complete health records.

“Ranchers often write down calving information, but when it comes to roping a calf in the pasture and giving it a shot because it’s droopy, this might not always be written down. The ranchers who keep these kinds of records were really helpful to us,” says Daly.

It is very beneficial to know what age the calf was when it was treated.

Age susceptibility “The problem in sorting this out is that all the calves in well-managed herds are about the same age.

They move into that window of susceptibility at about the same time. Is it something related to the season or is it something related to the age of the calf?” asks Smith.

Pneumonia in calves prior to weaning has a component of age susceptibility, like a childhood disease. From about 90 to about 150 days of age, calves are very susceptible because their maternal antibodies have essentially disappeared. The calf’s own immune system is trying to come up to speed.

“This is going on in the background, regardless of anything else. If you have a good, well-managed breeding season, all those calves will be approximately the same age, within six to eight weeks of each other, then they all Hereford.org

Vaccination Some producers vaccinate calves for viral pneumonia at spring branding and feel the procedure helps. “We think it helps, too,” Smith says. “But two doses of vaccine before calves are three months of age might provide Hereford.org

better immunity. It’s a tough thing to figure out how to get two doses of vaccine into the calves.”

Woolums says there is some research that supports the thinking that calves 60 to 90 days of age can respond to vaccination. “In some instances they do, and sometimes they don’t, depending on different variables,” she says.

The age to vaccinate is an important question. “We address this in dogs and cats by a series of boosters,” says Smith. “A puppy might get its first shots at six to eight weeks of age and then a booster every three weeks or so until the puppy is about 16 weeks of age.

That first shot, on some puppies, might be effective, but there will be a better response by the second or third one,” says Smith.

That vulnerable window is spanned by using a series of boosters, but giving boosters is easier to do with puppies and kittens than with calves.

“The other piece of that challenge is that even if you know when to vaccinate, you must have effective vaccines against the pathogen that’s involved in the disease, or you are just shooting in the dark vaccinating calves,” says Smith.

Ranchers need to consult with their herd-health veterinarian, and design a strategy to fit their individual operation regarding vaccinations. “There isn’t one formula or schedule that fits all herds,” Woolums says. It’s frustrating for producers because proper timing of vaccination is complicated, and there are also a lot of different vaccines from which to choose.

Regardless of when producers vaccinate and with what, there are some individual calves that won’t mount adequate immunity for one reason or another. Woolums says, “There is also a genetic component — not just in resistance to bovine respiratory disease, but also in response to vaccination. It’s not the same for all vaccines.” HW

Is a virus involved?

These researchers studying summer pneumonia also considered the involvement of a pathogen.

“We want to find out more about the pathogens involved,” says Woolums. “Some people wonder about coronavirus. We find this virus on nasal swabs in some of these calves.

But the important thing to remember is that we can also find it in normal calves. Animals can shed a virus but it may not be making them sick.”

Researchers don’t know if a virus is the actual cause. Just because they find it on the nasal swab doesn’t necessarily mean it’s involved with illness.

“The fact that some herds have more trouble with pneumonia than others might mean they have some pathogens present that are not present in other herds, but we don’t know,” says Smith. “It may be something like BRSV (bovine respiratory syncytial virus) or BVD (bovine virus diarrhea).” Maybe these cattle have a virus circulating that the cattle on other ranches don’t have, making them more vulnerable to other respiratory pathogens.

Woolums would like to have a student sample calves when ranchers gather a herd to AI (artificially inseminate) the cows. “Then later if some get sick they could sample them again and see if there is a difference. One of the reasons there isn’t more research on summer pneumonia is because it’s hard to sample the calves. On a dairy I can just walk down the line of calf hutches and sample a bunch of calves,” she says.

With beef calves, there’s not always an easy way to get hands on them, except at branding time — which happens only in the Western states, where calves are routinely branded at 1 to 3 months of age. A person could possibly capture calves during an AI program, but not all producers are doing AI. “It’s also hard to sample them without changing the risk factors. If we bring them all in to sample them, we’ve grouped them in a situation where they wouldn’t ordinarily have been grouped,” she says. This in itself creates more risk factors — stress of handling and co-mingling in close quarters. HW

lose that temporary protection at about the same time,” Smith explains. This loss of herd immunity is another component of the problem.

“This is an emerging problem in well-managed cattle operations.

The downside of this management is that we set these calves up for risk, which I believe can also be managed. But we have to do it by understanding the time frame in which calves are at risk — and that the things we do to increase opportunities for contact during that time make them more vulnerable. If you can avoid other opportunities for exposure at that age we may reduce the risk.

During that window of increased susceptibility, it is prudent to minimize co-mingling, and minimize stress,” he says.

Low-stress handling during AI procedures, for instance, and minimizing separation time for pairs, along with making sure the holding facilities are dust-free, can help.

“Basically our case-control study told us that there are things that affect the risk. Pneumonia in a susceptible age group is most likely when you put them in closer contact with other calves. Some producers are vaccinating those calves about that same time, and the vaccines may or may not help,” he says.

“This is probably not the time to vaccinate the calves, in some herds.

For herds that are not having a lot of problems with pneumonia prior to weaning, you might vaccinate them at a slightly older age, when they are more capable of mounting good immunity. If you are having problems with pneumonia in calves prior to weaning, you probably need to start your vaccination program at an earlier age,” Smith says.

Pasture Problems Lush pastures in the summer can lead to bloat in cattle.

by Heather Smith Thomas

80

/ May/June 2016

loat can readily occur in ruminant animals because of the way rumen microbes break down feeds, creating gas in the process. Associate professor and Extension veterinarian at Colorado State University David Van Metre says putting hungry cattle on lush legume pastures such as alfalfa or clover, especially in the pre-bloom stage, is most dangerous. These pastures become less dangerous once the plants are more mature with a lower protein level.

“Cattle on legume pastures or new spring growth of winter wheat should be carefully watched,” Van Metre says.

“We typically look for a distended rumen, which is easier to see from behind the animal than from the side. You want to catch them before they develop complications and have trouble breathing.”

The increasing rumen size puts pressure on the lungs, which then cannot expand enough to take in air.

Van Metre says cattle in trouble will stand with head and neck extended, open-mouthed and drooling. “When they have serious problems with low oxygen in the blood, they start to stagger and go down,” he explains. Immediate emergency measures should be taken to let gas out of the rumen and to prevent suffocation.

Bloat generally occurs when there’s a change to higher protein feeds, such as from grass to alfalfa, according to James England,

Hereford.org

Summer Management professor of animal and veterinary science at the University of Idaho Caine Center. Grasses don’t normally cause bloat, but some species of grass can create bloating under certain conditions.

“Usually cattle bloat when eating something that’s highly digestible with high protein content, and they overload the rumen,” he says.

“Bacterial flora start to change and produce more gases, and bacterial byproducts produce a slime that traps the gas in small bubbles or froth,” he says. The cattle can’t expel the gas by belching as quickly as it is produced.

“Depending on the type of feed, it may be frothy bloat. These can’t be belched as readily, nor let out very easily by stomach tube or trocar. Rapid bloat onset interferes with breathing. The distended rumen puts pressure on the lungs and on the nerves that affect breathing,” England says.

In most instances, bloat occurs when cows move into lush alfalfa pastures or overeat on newly erupted seed-heads on certain grass pastures.

Cattle should not be turned into these types of pastures when they are hungry nor moved into new strips when grazing rotationally.

“A lot of people pasture an alfalfa field in strips, and even though the cattle may have been on it awhile and you assume they are used to it, when you move them onto a new strip some

Hereford.org

may bloat. You always want to move them when they are full or introduce them to it slowly.

It’s also wise to keep bloat blocks available, and make sure the cattle are eating them,” England says.

Treatment Bloat should be considered an emergency and needs to be caught early. “The usual treatment is to pass a stomach tube or hose to pass off the gas,” England says. “If that doesn’t work you’ll need a trocar to poke a hole in the rumen to let the gas out.”

England explains that once the gas is vented off and the rumen deflates, it shifts position like a deflating balloon and may slide off the end of the trocar. “This is where you run the risk of the cow getting peritonitis. Usually if it’s just a small hole and the gas is pretty well vented, there isn’t much leaking of fluid into the abdominal cavity,” he says.

Van Metre says the preferred therapy is to administer mineral oil or poloxalene via stomach tube into the rumen, but if the cattle are out on pasture, they may be too far from a holding facility.

Administering the poloxalene or mineral oil by mouth is dangerous because the animal may inhale these medications into the lungs and the pneumonia that results is often fatal — it’s always better to use a stomach tube or nasogastric tube.

“Cattle on legume pastures or new spring growth of winter wheat should be carefully watched. We typically look for a distended rumen, which is easier to see from behind the animal than from the side. You want to catch them before they develop complications and have trouble breathing.”

— David Van Metre “Sometimes it’s a judgment call as to whether or not to put a trocar into the animal’s rumen,” Van Metre says. “Personally, I’ve seen a lot less problems with peritonitis if a person can use one of the new screw-in self-retaining trocars.

Some people call it a corkscrew trocar. The inner part of the sharp spear is the same, but the outside of it is threaded like a wood screw.

These are plastic, rather than steel. When you screw it all the way into the rumen it tends to hold the rumen next to the abdominal wall as the gas escapes and the rumen shrinks. This makes for less continued on page 82...

leakage of rumen contents into the abdominal cavity.”

England explains that the screwin trocar works well in calves to help keep the trocar in place, but it doesn’t work quite as well in adult cattle.

“With the thicker depth of body wall in cattle it doesn’t catch and hold the rumen as well as you’d think it would. It always amazes me, every time I open up a cow’s side, how thick the muscle is, under the skin,” England says. “You need at least a four-inch trocar and cannula.

Most of the cannulas that come on trocars now, you can suture the side of it down so it won’t pop back out.

Depending on how far the rumen drops away from it as the gas comes out, it may still slide off the end of the trocar,” he says.

Frothy bloat is difficult to release because the mass of bubbles tends to plug the stomach tube or trocar.

“In these instances you need to administer Therabloat® or some other bloat treatment product by tube,” England explains.

“Therabloat contains the same

82

/ May/June 2016

ingredient as in bloat blocks, and helps break up the tiny bubbles so the gas can be released. It works a little better than mineral oil, which tends to end up on top of the rumen contents and can interfere with digestion.”

In some instances England has attached a stomach pump to the end of the tube to pump out some of the frothy material. “The froth tends to keep plugging up the pump, but you can usually get some of the froth out and then put Therabloat back in through the tube, to break up the rest,” he says.

Severe bloat — when the rumen is distended higher than the cow’s backbone — is always an emergency and should be relieved quickly.

Cows on lush legume pastures should be closely monitored. The rumen can continue to produce gas several hours after they quit eating.

Preventing bloat There are several ways to minimize bloat on pastures, and these include timing of grazing, paying attention

to plant maturity, observing soil moisture and considering the weather. Choose a dry day and wait until dew is off before putting animals in a new pasture. If they are first fed hay before being put into the pasture, there is less chance of them overeating lush legumes and, therefore, bloating.

It is safest to leave them on the pasture rather than to graze it intermittently. Disruption of grazing can lead to a higher incidence of bloat, such as when cattle are taken out of a pasture overnight or interrupted by storms or biting flies.

Anything that disrupts their normal grazing patterns will result in more intense feeding periods afterward, which may increase the incidence of bloat, according to England.

Plant maturity is one of the most important factors in pasture bloat, so timing of grazing is crucial. Alfalfa pastures are safest when plants are fully mature. Bloat potential is highest when plants are in the pre-bud stage and decreases as the plant grows and matures to

Hereford.org

full flower. Studies have shown that alfalfa eight to 10 inches high tends to produce twice the amount of bloat as alfalfa 20 to 30 inches high.

Soil moisture also makes a difference; plants with adequate moisture for optimum growth are more likely to cause bloating. The stems are soft rather than fibrous, and the leaves are easily crushed between the fingers. Bloat potential of alfalfa is reduced if soil moisture is not sufficient for good growth.

Weather conditions play a role, as well; bloat seems to occur more frequently following a cool day. Moderate temperatures permit optimum plant growth.

Cool nighttime temperatures, in combination with moderate daytime temperatures, may increase the risk of bloat in the fall. Cool temperatures delay plant maturity and extend the growth phase. At the other temperature extreme, days that are hot enough to cause moisture stress and drying of plants reduce the risk of bloat.

Bloat incidence increases with cool weather, heavy dew and frost.

Ranchers have thought alfalfa to be safe after a killing frost, but there is still some risk as long as leaves are green. The first frosts actually increase risk for bloat, preserving the immature stage of growth. Frost also disrupts the plant cells, releasing bloat-causing agents and increasing the rate of cell breakdown. It usually takes many hard freezes to render the plants safe.

“Pasture bloat is multi-factorial,” Van Metre says. “There are many small influences, which in and of themselves may not be very significant, but cumulatively they probably increase the risk of one group of cattle versus another.”

Some individual animals seem more prone to bloating.

“Researchers have analyzed saliva from cattle and have found subtle differences in the salivary proteins that might limit foam/ froth formation in the rumen,” he says. “This may help to explain why some animals bloat more Hereford.org

readily than others. If you have a chronic bloater, note whether that animal bloats just on alfalfa or on anything other than dry hay.

Any time rumen gas production increases, this animal may not be able to handle it. There may be muscle and nerve issues that affect rumen function.”

If records are checked, cattlemen may find that an animal was sick earlier.

“Sometimes chronic pneumonia will cause enlargement of lymph nodes in the area surrounding the esophagus,” Van Metre explains.

“These nodes may put pressure against the esophagus, making it narrower, hindering the ability to burp. The animal may have an enlarged rumen all the time. Some bloaters get better after a course of antibiotics. This treatment doesn’t do anything for the bloat, per se, but if the animal has enlarged lymph nodes, the antibiotics may help.”

Many chronic bloaters cannot be cured, however. If the animal is otherwise healthy and free of residues from any previous medications, the best option may be salvage for slaughter. HW

Make sure cattle have plenty of salt Some farms have more problems with pasture bloat than others. In New Zealand, it was noted for a long time that pastures near the sea produce very little bloat. Herbage tests taken from farms near the sea that never experienced bloat and inland farms where bloat was a constant problem showed that the sodium levels in the “no bloat” pastures were three times higher than levels in the bloaty pastures. Salt tends to inhibit bloat.

Anything that decreases saliva production or consumption can make an animal more likely to bloat. Saliva contains sodium and bicarbonate of soda, both of which help prevent bloat. Salt is used by many New Zealand stockmen to reduce bloat. Some of them put salt in the drinking water as soon as bloat begins and claim that it stops the bloating. Many of them have fertilized their pastures with salt for decades. The sodium in salt is crucial in helping prevent bloat.

Yet, for a number of years, cattlemen have been advised to remove salt from the diet and to replace it with bloat blocks. Thomas Swerckzek, a veterinary pathologist in Kentucky, has been studying the relationship between salt and the prevention of bloat and grass tetany, and during the past 15 years, he has discovered that sodium is very important in helping prevent the chain of events that can lead to problems when cattle consume lush, fast-growing pastures or frost-damaged plants.

“What I noticed in several severe outbreaks of bloat was that cows were eating the bloat blocks and still dying. Yet university and Extension people are still saying that producers need to put bloat blocks out on legume pastures, to prevent bloat in cattle. However, if cattle have adequate salt, they generally won’t die of bloat. There is a close relationship between bloat in cattle, grass tetany and lack of salt. Cattle are bloating because they need calcium and magnesium for proper muscle contraction,” says Swerckzek.

These minerals become unavailable to the body during the chemical changes that occur with the sudden feed change, if sodium is not available. If cattle are short on these important minerals, the smooth muscles of the gut, including the rumen, lose tone and can’t move things through as readily — and the animals bloat. HW

Kunde Family Winery For more than a century, five generations of the Kunde Family have farmed in the heart of Sonoma Valley — a truly remarkable legacy in the modern age of California winemaking. A fervent, forward-thinking vision of land stewardship and sustainability began more than 100 years ago and has been shaped with each successive generation.

“The history of this estate shows a zeal for life, a fervent, hard-working spirit that our family set in motion over a century ago,” says Jeff Kunde.

“That dedication to land stewardship remains just as strong today in our fifth generation, as we continually work to preserve this beautiful landscape, and share it with others.”

Today, Kunde Family Winery is still family owned and operated with a hands-on team of fourth- and fifth-generation family members at the helm.

At the end of the day, every decision they make, every wine they craft and every experience they provide honors the legacy of founder Louis Kunde, who emigrated from Germany and purchased the original Wildwood Vineyards ranch at the turn of the century in 1904.

Cresting the second century was a profound milestone for the family.

Moving forward, they remain committed to innovation and state-of-the-art facilities, while also maintaining a deep, personal commitment to sustainable winegrowing and preserving the land for generations to come.

“I am still awestruck by this estate, and how hard our forefathers worked to preserve and nurture this property for over a century, making the company what it is today,” says Marcia (Kunde) Mickelson. “As a fourthgeneration member of this family, it’s our responsibility to continue that story by making thoughtful, relevant strides that pay homage to the past with an eye toward the future.” HW

Branding Beef The future of a beef case just might be in the branding.

by Kate Hagans

A

consumer approaches a meat display and takes note of the variety of beef products. What makes these products different? Labels on meat products trigger brand familiarity in the mind of the consumer. Without spending much time considering other options, the consumer places the product with a branded sticker into the cart and continues shopping.

Branded beef has been widely studied and offers an economic advantage says Travis O’Quinn, Kansas State University meat Extension specialist.

“Ninety-six percent of beef sold at retail is sold under some form of brand name,” he says.

O’Quinn explained his study of consumers’ perceptions of branded beef products to an audience at the 103rd annual Cattlemen’s Day in Manhattan, Kan., on March 4.

Branded-beef products carry labels or registered trademarks for beef commodities. Brands are now readily available in grocery stores and stamped on restaurant menus and ultimately influence the consumer’s purchasing decision.

O’Quinn discussed how product identification prior to tasting affects consumers’ perception of the quality of the beef they are eating.

Beef provides consumers with a high level of eating satisfaction — a characteristic that sets it apart from other protein. O’Quinn found in his study, conducted in 2010, there were three determining factors — tenderness, flavor and juiciness — used to measure overall palatability.

“There are two types of interaction in these traits — the real physical interaction and the psychological interaction, which is the biggest interaction,” O’Quinn says.

Flavor is rated the highest determining factor in a beef product for consumers. Questions were raised on the preference of tenderness being increased in meat.

“I believe flavor is the biggest driver,” O’Quinn says.

“We are seeing a shift in increasing tenderness, but flavor is ultimately the reason for overall experience.”

/ May/June 2016

With this study, O’Quinn desired to answer the question “What motivates consumers to purchase branded-beef products?”

He divided his study into two parts. During part one, consumers taste-tested beef strip loin steak.

During part two, consumers taste-tested ground beef.

Of the 112 consumers involved in the study, all were community members of Manhattan, Kan. The age of participants ranged from early 30s to late 40s.

“We qualified a consumer as someone who ate beef at least once a week,” O’Quinn says.

In both parts of the study, the products consumers were provided were branded and non-branded.

Consumers were aware of the differences between products before rating.

Does appearance and branding change the overall consumer perception? The goal of O’Quinn’s blind tasting study was to find the answer.

“Consumers were overall, more accepting and preferred branded beef products after tasting both branded and non-branded,” O’Quinn says.

Once consumers were aware of the product they were eating, the overall majority preferred the branded product. Participants were unaware if the meat was rated United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Prime, Choice or Select.

Consumer experience matters “This study was done with blind taste testing but in the real world, that test isn’t blind,” O’Quinn says.

In most situations the consumer is looking for a certain product or searching for a main meal ingredient while standing at a meat display.

“The consumer knows a lot about that product before they ever take that first bite,” O’Quinn says.

“The price, cut, information from a label — all of these factors go into influencing the consumer’s perception of the eating experience.”

Consumers automatically rate beef products higher on “Retailers, producers, everyone along the supply tenderness, juiciness and flavor if the product is branded. chain is trying to catch the value that is associated This experience is related to the concept of “brand lift.” with branding beef programs,” O’Quinn says.

“This is how we continue the legacy of great beef.” HW Creating and developing the CHB program enhanced the brand’s marketing opportunities in restaurants and stores. The aim is to increase the demand for Hereford-influenced cattle.

Branding the future One member of the audience asked O’Quinn about the future of branded-beef programs.

“We’re a brand-associated country and we’re capitalizing more than ever on branded-beef products,” he says.

Not only has this economic value provided growing opportunities for the beef industry, but it has also built trust and a relationship with the primarily audience: consumers.

CHB Sires

957 Bulls Recognized as CHB Sires of Distinction The Certified Hereford Beef Sire of Distinction (CHBS) program recognizes Hereford bulls that have excelled in carcass traits. The American Hereford Association Board of Directors initiated this program in August 2007.

To qualify as a CHBS, a bull must:

1) Be in the top 25% for the CHB$ profit index.

CHB Sires

2) Have a minimum accuracy level of 30% for both ribeye area (REA) and marbling (MARB) expected progeny difference (EPD).

The CHBS distinction is used to recognize sires in the Hereford breed that excel in improving carcass traits. Although all bulls have the opportunity, only a few bulls will be recognized.

A bull receiving the CHBS status will be recognized with CHB after his name when doing an animal or EPD inquiry on Hereford.org.

A list of the 957 sires recognized as CHB Sires follows.

The Veterinary Feed Directive – Communicating for Success Once the Veterinary Feed Directive is put into effect, veterinarians and producers must maintain a two-way track in communication.

by Kate Hagans

L

ivestock producers, veterinarians, retailers and agriculturists alike are working to adjust to the new Veterinarian Feed Directive (VFD) regulation, a change in policy limiting the administration of certain antimicrobials in feed.

Kansas Department of Agriculture’s (KDA) animal health

98

/ May/June 2016

commissioner, Bill Brown, spoke to Kansas beef producers about this sensitive topic at the 103rd annual Cattlemen’s Day in Manhattan, Kan. “The train has left the station — in other words this is going to happen,” Brown says regarding the VFD regulation ordered to be effective on Jan. 1, 2017, and the KDA will be there for support.

The Veterinary/Client-Patient Relationship (VCPR) definition may differ from state to state.

Veterinarians will only be allowed to issue a VFD for use of specific feed grade antibiotics to producers who have developed a stable relationship with their vet. In defining a relationship, it must be built on trust and the veterinarian must have a full understanding of the client’s operation.

Brown outlined his discussion by stressing that producers must realize how this change will affect them but also giving them the advice that they should begin talking with their local veterinarian.

“Now that the dust is settling, it is becoming more clear as we move forward,” Brown says.

He explained the reason for this strict regulation of medically important drugs is the counterpart role it plays in human health.

“There are arguments on both sides, animal and human.”

Brown says. “What this VFD does is put in responsibilities for animal health and addresses those public health concerns.”

Once this policy is in place, medically important antibiotics used in animal feed will be used only for the purposes of disease treatment, disease control or disease prevention with a veterinarian’s permission.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved VFD antimicrobials for use in animal feed to be allowed only under a veterinarian’s supervision and a written feed directive must be issued to the owner of the livestock and feed mills.

The regulation covers antimicrobial drugs administered via feed or water but not injection.

“What won’t change is anything that has to do with controlling parasites, reproduction and bloat doesn’t apply,” Brown says.

The VFD received from a veterinarian must be in documentation. Verbal consent is not allowed. Electronic VFD documents are acceptable such as faxes, scanned copies including Hereford.org

ones on smart phones and electronic signatures.

Moving into the future, Brown predicts documenting VFDs electronically will become popular.

The associated cost of a VFD is certainly a concern among many producers. Brown couldn’t provide a set cost but ensured that the state of Kansas is currently working to secure an affordable plan.

Veterinarians affected “This is a learning curve for everyone,” Brown says. “In the next year or two it’s going to be a lot of outreach and education not just for producers but veterinarians as well.”

Within the regulation of VFD drugs, they are not for off-label use. It’s important to know the approved combinations.

Knowledge of the VCPR is vital to maintain. Kansas’ Board of Veterinary Examiners oversees the veterinarian practice act in which the VCPR is defined.

The veterinarian will also be in charge of distribution, making sure the producer receives the VFD as well as the feed mill. Brown also says part of the regulation requires veterinarians and producers to keep personal records of the VFDs for a two-year history.

Veterinarians, feed distributors and producers will also undergo FDA audits. Brown states the FDA is currently working to establish a baseline. “All of this refers back to the documentation materials vets and producers are required to have,” he says.

Ultimately, veterinarians will hold a large sum of responsibilities in issuing VFDs for their clients’ operation. The definition of veterinary oversight lies within the states.

Brown stated a significant oversight is the vast number of retiring large-animal veterinarians.

He ensured producers many young veterinarians are being encouraged to practice in rural locations.

Producers affected With time, producers and veterinarians will adapt to changes.

Hereford.org

Brown answers how this will directly affect producers and their operations.

“We’re reaching the point now, USDA is starting to become more in an enforcement-mode for compliance,” Brown says.

Producers will not be left behind in this act of precaution being taken for human wellness.

“This is a response of trying to meet the matters in the U.S. about public health concerns of VFD,” Brown says.

CattleFax study CattleFax recently released a survey asking producers two questions; “Do you regularly use antibiotics in your herd?” and “Do you have a vet client-patient relationship?”

Once the surveys were collected, 20% of producers could not say they had a stable relationship with their local veterinarian.

In asking producers if the use of antibiotics was a part of their program, 24% included use in mineral, feed and water and 27% included the use of injections. The other 49% stated they used the drugs “very rarely.”

Brown’s important link to producers is seeking a reliable veterinarian now and getting aquatinted before the directive is put into action.

Jan. 1, 2017, is the operating deadline toward which producers should be working to prepare not only themselves but also their veterinarians.

Concerns were voiced about the transportation of cattle across state lines and its relationship to VFDs. Brown admitted there are many grey areas his department is still sorting out. However, another important point lies with selecting the right veterinarian carefully and developing a strong relationship despite having different contact with vets outside state lines in the U.S. Brown also stated it has not been defined how frequently the producer’s veterinarian must visit the operation.

“The Board of Examiners wants to figure out where those grey areas

are so they can then modify them,” Brown says.

Brown makes a point to state what is unacceptable in using the new directive.

“Extra label use for feed grade antibiotics is illegal for both veterinarians and producers,” Brown says. It is simply defined as not in accordance with approved labeling.

“If you are going above or below dosage of what the label says you are using extra-labeling,” Brown says as an example.

It is also important for producers to understand a combination of VFD drugs and over-the-counter drugs. If it includes a VFD drug, it will require a VFD. “Producers can be aware of this by reading the drug’s label,” Brown says.

The regulation covers antimicrobial drugs administered via feed or water but not injection.

The expiration date of the VFD defines the term during which the VFD is valid. The duration defines the length of time the drug must be administered and completed before the expiration date.

Many particular circumstances lie in the cracks of the new regulation’s platform.

“The Division of Animal Health in the Department of Ag is taking the outreach of education approach,” Brown says.

Brown has high hopes the FDA will do the same in getting everyone acquainted during this time of change. He stresses the importance of education.

“Antibiotic use, stewardship, reasonable use — those are going to be the theme for the next several months,” Brown says.

Producers honing in on these practices will put an emphasis on prevention of disease and stimulate acceptance of the VFD’s purpose.

“It’s a complex picture but it’s going to take different components to make a final product,” Brown says. HW

HEREFORD MOM DIARIES Good for the Soul You know those weekends that are just good for the soul? The ones that make you walk away feeling refreshed and ready to face the world again?

As a show mom, it’s not likely they happen very often — there’s just not time. But when they do, the experience is life changing. Or very close.

Just last weekend, I was fortunate to spend two days and nights with a core group of my show mom friends. For several years, we have participated in an online Bible study, and it’s safe to say, these gals know way more about me than anyone should.

We ask for advice. We ask for guidance. We sometimes even ask for prayers for that show heifer or show pig that has gone off feed. And the great thing? Not one of us thinks those are odd requests.

Members of our group live at all points across the country — Idaho, Kansas, Texas, Illinois, Minnesota,

South Dakota, Nebraska — and some had never met in person. When the news arrived of a Christian women’s conference coming near Chicago, we decided that was the perfect excuse to gather. And was it ever perfect.

The conference was incredible. And what was perhaps even more incredible was the fellowship afterward. We rented a home in the city, got in our cozy pajamas and ordered pizza (Chicago deep dish, of course), and we talked and laughed and laughed and cried. Sometimes, simultaneously.

And we stayed up way past our normal momma bedtimes.

And we all left that weekend with a renewed sense that we’re not in this life alone.

How important is that? Well, it’s everything.

Everyone deserves that type of friendship — honest, transparent, real.

We 100% support one another. And we also provide the tough advice that’s

Everyone deserves a friend circle like I’ve found with these fellow show moms and livestock enthusiasts. Honest. Real. Fierce.

by Christy Couch Lee

sometimes not easy to hear, but that’s what real friends do.

There’s a saying circulating on many Pinterest boards, “You become like the five people you spend the most time with. Choose carefully.”

We moms in the Hereford circle are so fortunate, aren’t we? There’s no shortage of incredible, inspiring women to learn from and grow with.

Countless times, I’ve called on a fellow show mom for advice. How to balance the washing and rinsing and showmanship practices with baseball schedules and homework. How to best pack those clothes for a show and strategically plan the hotel laundry room runs, too. How to stock the show box and first-aid kits and snack boxes in a way that doesn’t cause a meltdown in the process.

Those show moms are also the ones who are the first to step forward in the moments when they know the challenges are present. With a text on the county fair sale morning from hundreds of miles away sending encouragement to get through the day.

With a phone call on the day when you’re just not sure how you’re going to get it all done and that momma patience is at the breaking point.

With an understanding smile on show morning, when you’re just trying to keep the little ones out of the way while the heifer is being fit. And tension is, shall we say, a bit high.

I’d say my husband, Craig, and I make a pretty good team, and it takes us both to make this crazy family life work.

I’m also willing to bet that most show moms would agree that it takes those gal friends in the barn to survive this life, too.

So seek out those women. Take the time required to nurture and grow those friendships because in this crazybusy life, it does take time and effort.

But, oh, how good for the soul those relationships are, too. HW

80 Million Strong Insight into the “Millennial mindset.”

by Kindra Gordon

A

s modern agriculture evolves, getting to know consumers and understanding their changing needs have become increasingly important to ensure marketing success. Presently, the Millennial demographic is one worth paying close attention to as it is driving change across all sectors of the economy.

Millennials encompass the segment of the population that is 18-34 years old. In the U.S., Millennials are 80-plus million people strong, representing 25% of the population. That translates to $1.3 trillion of direct spending power.

Moreover, 25% of Millennials are parents who comprise 11.6 million households. Also of interest, 6.2 million Millennial households make more than $100K, and 64% of affluent Millennials are women — a statistic which experts say holds interesting marketing implications for the future.

/ May/June 2016

Leah Swartz works with the Kansas City, Mo.-based company FutureCast that was established five years ago to monitor trends among Millennials and aid industries and companies in devising marketing strategy directed at this consumer group.

Swartz emphasizes that marketers should care about Millenials because “they are approaching life in a different way — from food and technology to dating and mating.”

As a result, Swartz says their approach is prompting a lot of change in previous, or traditional, marketing avenues.

She further explains, “With regard to Millennials, we often hear that ‘they don’t grow up and they are digitally dependent.’”

However, she says consumer data FutureCast has collected paint a different picture. “Our research shows they are future focused and agile decision makers.”

She adds, “Many Millennials graduated around 2008 — they recognize and were affected by the difficult economy.” Because of this influence, Swartz says many Millennials are rejecting the traditional life stages of college, then a career, then family. “It’s not as predictable of a path (with Millennials); some may get (a) job, have a family, then consider college,” she explains.

Swartz also notes that because the Millennial population is so vast, the “Millennial mindset” influences everyone, even those outside that generation. “If you use a cell-phone or have ever taken a ‘selfie’ you are influenced by Millennials,” she says.

What they want Foremost in influencing Millennials is the fact that they are what Swartz describes as “digital natives.” They have only known a world with cell phones Hereford.org

and the Internet. As a result, Swartz says, “They have always had access to open doors (of information.)”

She explains that this becomes key with the companies they support and is a big influencer in marketing of food.

Millennials want transparency.

As an example, Swartz says in the past if a company marketed something as the “best new cereal,” people bought it. Now, if a company puts out a claim like that, consumers first look online, and then decide whether or not they’ll buy it.

Swartz underscores, “Consumers want transparency and honesty. A closed door (to information) is not accepted.”

Additionally, Swartz says, “Millennials believe in brands that support ideas or social issues. To them it’s not just about making money.”

Also important to Millennials: participation and experience.

Swartz explains, “Millennials are looking for a remarkable experience that provides memories — and pictures — they can share with their friends.” She adds that often consumers are more interested in the experience than the product itself.

Along with this, Millennials are driven by participation, according to Swartz. “They want to be invited to join versus being told to do so.” She adds, “Millennials are intuitively collaborative; it may be online, but they like (social) groups.”

To tap Millennials’ interest in experience and participation, Swartz says many companies are focusing on discovery as part of their consumer marketing. An example of this is when companies offer consumers the opportunity to submit photos of themselves with the company’s product (or recipes using the product) to potentially be featured on the company’s social media and other marketing campaigns. Uploading videos or GoPro footage is another example.

Hereford.org

“Millennials thirst for partnership, and this tactic allows them to explore or discover, then connect and share. Consumers end up marketing for the company via their posts,” explains Swartz.

She says there is very much a storytelling component to today’s marketing efforts with Millennials.

But, she advises industries and businesses to “find ways to share an experience, not just tell a story.

Millennials seek opportunities to ‘do-it-yourself.’”

This is especially evident in another Millennial statistic — they are one of the most entrepreneurial generations ever seen. Over the next year, 54% of Millennials say they plan to start their own business, and 23% are doing so because of unemployment. “They want to do it themselves,” Swartz emphasizes.

This desire to be involved can also be seen in the online popularity of sites like Yelp, TripAdvisor and Kickstarter. These real-time sites allow people to post or fundraise and get their message out themselves.

Additional factors of importance to Millennials, according to Swartz, include: • A healthy lifestyle, but Millennials define it as “good for my life/spirit.”

• A food mentality focused on flavor and freshness.

• A desire to be supportive of

local — from food to causes.

Swartz concludes, saying, “It’s important to realize this Millennial mindset because it’s resulting in a new consumer economy.”

When asked how to reach Millennials with messages about agriculture, Swartz advises, “Be where they (consumers) are to establish credibility versus expecting them to come to you.”

To do this, she suggests social media, saying, “Blogs are big” as well as Twitter, Snapchat, YouTube and Instagram. Additionally, she concludes, “Tap into influencers, people they are listening to via blogs or other online publications.

Connect and partner with those people to help be a voice for your industry.” HW

In Passing Robert M. “Bob” Koch, 91, of Colorado Springs, Colo., passed away March 10.

He enlisted in the Bob Koch Army during WWII after a semester of college and was assigned to the Army Specialized Training Program (ASTP) in Stephenville, Texas. Because of the heavy casualties during D-Day, ASTP was disbanded, and Bob was assigned to the rifle companies of the 99th Infantry Division, Company E, 2nd Battalion, 395th Regiment.

In Europe he participated in the Battle of the Bulge and received many medals and awards including a Bronze Star. He attended the first Officer Candidate School in Europe and left the service as a First Lieutenant in 1946.

Bob married Virginia Terrett in July 1946, returned to college and graduated from Montana State University with a degree in animal science. He then received his master’s degree and doctorate from Iowa State University.

He joined the Animal Science Department faculty of the University of Nebraska in 1950. His career with the University included serving as superintendent at the Fort Robinson Beef Cattle Research Station, Crawford, Neb., a consultant at the University of Nebraska Mission in Columbia, South America, and the chairman of the Animal Science Department.

In 1966 Bob returned to research full-time and in 1972 moved to the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center in Clay Center, Neb. There he, along with L.V. Cundiff and K.E. Gregory, launched the Germ Plasm Evaluation Program, the largest genetic beef cattle research project to date.

Bob also directed a 25-year project initiated in 1960 to study the effects of selection for growth traits and muscle score in a closed line of Hereford cattle. He wrote and published his last research at the age of 80 in the Journal of Animal Science.

He received many research awards including the Animal Breeding and Fellow Awards from the American

104

/ May/June 2016

Society of Animal Science and the Pioneer Award from the Beef Improvement Federation. In 1989 Beef Magazine named the team of R.M. Koch, K.E. Gregory, and L.V. Cundiff as part of the “25 who made a difference to the beef industry during the preceding 25 years.” In 2001 the team received an Architect of Cattle Breeding Award at the Cattlemen’s Reunion in Billings, Mont.

Bob’s research contributions are documented in more than 150 refereed scientific publications.

He is survived by his sister, Susan Henderson; sons William, James and Richard; eight grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and nieces and nephews. He is also survived by his wife of 18 years, Mary Jane Huxtable-Koch; her children, Tom and Paul Huxtable, Anne Scates and Jean Hamersky; and her childrens’ families.

Rubye Jean Jarrell, 82, of Eagleville, Tenn., passed away March 20.

Rubye was a homemaker, retired bookkeeper and a Rubye Jean member of the Eagleville Jarrell Church of Christ. Until the death of her husband, R. B. “Bob” Jarrell, who died in 2001, she and he both were very involved in the cattle business. She was a member of the Tennessee Polled Herford Association, Beef Agribition and the Poll-Ettes.

Rubye is survived by her daughter, Kay Jarrell Ash; grandchildren, Joseph Ash and Christina Ash; and brother, Charles Cooke.

In the News Frazier named to lead NCBA The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) has named Kendal Frazier its new chief executive officer (CEO). NCBA President Tracy Brunner made the announcement in March.

“It was the belief of the officers and others involved with the search process that NCBA owed it to our members, our stakeholders and the beef community to take our time

as we selected the right individual to serve as the next chief executive officer,” Brunner says. “We can say with confidence that Kendal Frazier is the right leader for the association. With many years of experience working for state and national beef organizations, he has helped to guide our industry through some of its greatest challenges.

“Kendal’s dedication to NCBA and his leadership abilities have been tested and proven while serving as interim CEO since June 2015. During that time, NCBA has not wavered from its responsibility to its members and affiliates as a grassroots policy organization.”

Frazier said he is honored and excited for the opportunity to serve as CEO. “My priorities as CEO will be working with NCBA’s stakeholders and other organizations to vigorously oppose the continued assault by the government on private property rights; work to expand and open markets around the world for U.S. beef; increase trust in U.S. beef production and ensure consumers fully understand the importance of beef’s role in their diets,” Frazier says.

“By focusing on these key areas, we ensure there is a prosperous future for the next generation of cattlemen and women. It has been my privilege to serve our industry. I have spent my career working with and for beef producers, so I am well versed in the many challenges and exciting opportunities that face our industry.

I’m looking forward to working with NCBA’s leadership, membership, staff, state affiliates, state beef councils and other stakeholders.”

Frazier was raised on a diversified cattle and grain operation in southcentral Kansas. He is a graduate of Kansas State University and began his career as a farm broadcaster for WIBW Radio/Television before joining the staff at the Kansas Livestock Association as director of communications. He joined the staff of the National Cattlemen’s Association in 1985 and has held several staff leadership roles during his career with the association. HW Hereford.org
