Craig Huffhines

Strength of the Brand The concept of brands in marketing of products is certainly not a new concept. Hundreds of brands have come and gone over time; many of which were displaced by a newer brand of product with more “bells and whistles” or by companies that move the needle more quickly on product development and marketing.

On many occasions the old tried-and-true brands have been pushed aside by those that appeal to a new generation of consumers.

On the other hand, there are older brands that refuse to be knocked off. Take for instance Wrigley’s chewing gum. In 1893 William Wrigley Jr. first developed Juicy Fruit, and Wrigley’s Spearmint chewing gum has dominated the category for now over a century.

Both of those brands are still on the shelves, Wrigley’s is still managed by a fourth-generation family member, and it now owns other brands in the category. Fourth generation — why that sounds like a Hereford breeder!

Branding is not a new concept to the meat industry. In the heyday of the terminal market era in the 1920s through the 1950s, beef packers differentiated themselves

by branding their name on swinging carcasses. The Swift, Armour and Cudahy families built packing empires on delivering their own brands of quality to the major metropolitan cities.

U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) beef grading was just being introduced and many packers differentiated themselves with their own set of custom grading standards.

Over time packers either innovated, consolidated into multinational firms or conceded a slow business death to new innovators that entered the boxed beef trade.

Eventually the landscape changed in packing, but the USDA grading system became the “gold standard” for differentiating quality of beef. During the last 20 years, brands have been developed to enhance the grading system through specification marketing.

Breed, particularly Hereford and Angus, hormone free, locally raised, private company labels, age and source, VAC-45, and in the not so distant future, humane handling guidelines have, or soon will, become standards that add value to beef products.

Consumers want to know more about the food they buy and how it was raised.

Hereford Beef (CHB®) have a story to tell. As a part of the Hereford story, we may soon be required to tell consumers how we raise our cattle.

The two breeds of cattle in the U.S. that have established themselves as the unequivocal champions of beef quality — Hereford and Angus — have generated the most awareness with the most story line. Both breeds complement one another and are recognized as breeds that produce a quality beef eating experience.

For Hereford this reputation is multicultural.

The Hispanic community, now accounting for more than 50% of the population in the southern U.S., has always recognized the Hereford breed as a breed of high quality.

CHB LLC has experienced increased interest in the Nuestro Rancho Hereford brand.

The American Hereford Association (AHA) established the CHB Nuestro Rancho brand in 2009 to capture an added value for Select Hereford beef, a program that offers about as much potential as the CHB brand itself within a growing Hispanic consumer segment that is looking for quality and leanness at a reasonable price.

Although the category for fresh beef is getting crowded, there is a great deal of opportunity for both the CHB and Nuestro Rancho brands at retail and on restaurant menus.

Jack Ward

BuyHereford.com Growth Continues Through the years, I have written many of these columns and most of them are directly related to breed improvement and the programs that have been developed to improve Hereford genetics. Most of these programs have a direct link to Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR) and its importance for unbiased reporting.

Today, the Hereford breed is seeing a tremendous “pull demand.” This demand can be seen in the commercial, seedstock and junior programs. So, once you have built a program that has the genetics and type that your customers are seeking, then you will need to develop some type of marketing strategy.

This marketing comes easily to some, and, traditionally, most large breeders have either an annual production sale or an aggressive privatetreaty marketing scheme.

The interesting part of the seedstock industry, and specifically the American Hereford Association (AHA), is that the largest portion of the membership has less than 30 cows. Because numbers are a limiting factor in having a production sale, these members have to be very inventive in their marketing schemes.

As AHA staff, we have tracked very closely the growing demand for Hereford genetics and asked ourselves the question, “How are we going to get the cattle marketed for all size breeders?” Of course, the

6 Hereford World / November 2010

AHA sponsors a number of national sales in which breeders may participate.

In several states there are beef expos and stateand regional-sponsored sales that provide very strong opportunities for breeders to market their cattle. In most cases the states have recognized the importance of selling Hereford genetics that are documented with sufficient levels of performance, and most require that breeders participate in the AHA Whole Herd TPR program.

My hat is off to those organizations. In many cases these sales utilize the AHA staff to help select cattle. But, again, some members do not have the time or resources to market cattle even at these sales.

So, a year ago, the AHA developed an online auction site (BuyHereford.com) in partnership with the Wendt Group to help Hereford breeders market cattle, embryos, semen or any other item they have for sale.

During this first year, there have been some very exciting sales; the site has been utilized by both large and small breeders to market single lots as well as entire production sales.

This concept is not new.

It has experienced huge success in the swine industry and could be considered the typical way to market pigs around the country; in addition, it has also seen widespread use in real estate and machinery auctions.

There are some real benefits to these types of

auctions for both the buyers and the sellers.

As a seller, it obviously has an advantage to the smaller breeders and allows them access to potential buyers around the country.

Furthermore, it will allow producers to market yearround. A producer may offer a heifer calf one month, a cow another, a bred heifer another, some semen one month and maybe even some embryos from a cow that flushed better than expected.

Additionally, this type of auction can give a farm or ranch advertising at a minimal cost. We have had breeders who have sold items on the site and right after the sale have actually sold additional items to contending bidders and even bidders that were just watching and later called the owner to make a deal.

Even our larger breeders could utilize this sale site with cattle that might be born outside the window for marketing within their production sales. For example when I was marketing genetics at Maple Lane Farms, the production sale was always in the fall. If I would have had an opportunity to use this kind of site to market some fall-born calves in the spring, the sales would have given us some much needed cash flow throughout the entire year.

For a buyer, purchasing on BuyHereford.com is a very seamless process that gives him access to cattle from all size programs from throughout the entire U.S. In addition, it may give continued on page 55... www.hereford.org

More than 100 Hereford youth participated in our Masters of Beef Advocacy (MBA) kickoff during PRIDE.

10 Hereford World / November 2010

to complete the MBA certification, sponsored by the beef checkoff program, by Oct. 1.

The NJHA board’s goal is to lead the way in the agriculture industry through knowledge and promotional tools. This goal is the reason we want to be the breed with the largest number of junior members certified in the MBA program. The NJHA board members have completed the MBA program and want other NJHA members to become educated in animal care, beef nutrition, environmental stewardship and beef safety.

After completing this course, junior members will be able to help consumers choose what to feed their families. Juniors who complete this course will be able to tell consumers the importance of safe, wholesome and nutritious beef. Another important aspect of the course is explaining where beef checkoff dollars go, what the money is used for and how the checkoff helps beef producers.

This course will help junior members prepare presentations and find speakers on nutrition.

The MBA is not just for junior members; beef producers of all ages are encouraged to complete the course to better understand

consumers and their wants and needs when choosing a certain type of beef.

The beef industry is constantly in the media; it is our job as beef producers and consumers to ensure the public is receiving the correct message about the beef industry.

The Hereford breed is taking a step in the right direction to educate our members to then educate the public and keep consumers aware about the beef industry. Consumers have questions and are looking for answers; they are bombarded by the media and advertisements.

By completing the MBA, our Hereford juniors will be armed with the knowledge to answer these questions and many more.

In Kansas City during the American Royal, Daren Williams, National Cattlemen’s Beef Association executive director of communications, facilitated a workshop about the MBA program.

He facilitated media training and explained how to tell your story about the beef industry.

The Hereford breed is proud to provide educational tools to Hereford youth wanting to be proactive in the beef industry. Following Williams’ presentation, Hereford juniors who had completed the MBA were recognized for their initiative in taking the next step in becoming an advocate in the beef industry.

Through the education of the MBA program provided by the beef checkoff program, we, as breeders, producers and consumers, can educate the public.

NHW Thanks Leaders During the National Hereford Women (NHW) meeting in late October, the organization welcomed new leaders to the board and thanked six women for their years of service.

Jill Tucker, N. Platte, Neb., is a new board member as a result of nomination and appointment.

Jill She will fill the unexpired term of Della Ehlke, who submitted her resignation as a northwest area director.

Jill was born and raised in Pawnee, Okla. She was active showing cattle growing up. She attended Oklahoma State University and received a degree in hotel and restaurant management with a minor in marketing. Following college, she worked in various marketing positions with hotels and corporations.

Today, Jill is involved in the dayto-day operations of her family’s cattle business with her husband, John. They have two sons, Blake, 15, and Mitchell, 11. The boys are extremely active in sports, high school rodeo and many other activities. Jill enjoys supporting the boys in all their endeavors. She has served in numerous leadership roles with the North Platte school system and as a den leader for the local Cub Scout chapter for the past eight years.

In addition, she works part-time with a local kitchen and bath design center, overseeing its marketing efforts. In her spare time, she can be found landscaping around her home south of North Platte.

Jill, John and their boys have raised and shown Hereford cattle for the past eight years. Although John grew up in the Hereford business, Jill did not. She has developed a love of Hereford cattle and, most especially, the Hereford people. “They have been so welcoming to me and my family. I have learned so much about the breed as well as the organization behind it,” Jill says. “The junior national is an incredible event. The experiences and opportunities it provides the kids, even beyond the showring, are outstanding. These memories are some of the fondest we have of our family vacations.”

As a newly elected member of the NHW board, Jill is excited to learn more about the infrastructure of the Hereford organization and hopes to be of service, particularly in the areas of junior events and scholarships. “The juniors are our future, and anything we can do to help them achieve their goals and aspirations only betters the breed,” she says. “These kids have so many great ideas. We as adults can learn so much from them.”

Founding directors retire Gail Blagg, Deb Carlson, Donna Fulton and Susan Rader were the first of the NHW founding directors to retire. These women dedicated time and talent to their respective organizations prior to the inaugural year of NHW. See “Retiring directors’ thoughts.”

Brooke Gandy, southeast, and Katie Peebles, southwest, also join the retiring founding directors. They

came to the NHW board with a strong National Organization of Pollettes (NOP) background, continuing a family tradition. Both of their mothers previously had served on the NOP board.

Ways and means The 2010 Junior Hereford National Expo (JNHE) in Indianapolis is long over. Ribbons were won, memories were made, and pictures were taken.

Yet, in the minds and memories of many JNHE exhibitors, those six days made a lasting impression.

Those exhibitors’ lives were touched by awards presented by the NHW. Some of those exhibitors walked away with substantial scholarships to assist in their educational goals; one lucky individual walked away with a heifer; four young ladies walked away with added bonus checks for exhibiting the heifer that they had purchased with the assistance of funds from the NHW the previous year. These are examples of just a few of many programs that are in existence due to the hard work and persistence of the NHW. NHW members work year-round planning and executing ideas to generate funds that allow them to continue the rewards and stimulation of the Hereford youth. This year was the beginning of what we hope will be an annual ways and means project.

We have been talking about it, dropping clues, even giving previews. The final project has been named and is now entering its final phases. The original print

Retiring directors’ thoughts Gail Blagg

As I retire from the founding board of the National Hereford Women (NHW), I see a great future ahead for this organization.

I enjoyed every minute of service with the American Hereford Women and as a member of the founding NHW board.

I believe the consolidation of the women’s organizations has been and will continue to be a positive thing for all the members.

I believe this is especially true for the youth activities and Hereford promotions this group supports.

I can truly say in all the organizations I have served I have never encountered such a group with the dedication and vision of these ladies. These women truly believe in the Hereford breed. They have an unwavering faith in the youth and their impact on the future of the breed and the industry.

I will miss the e-mails and phone conference calls that made me feel connected to the breed and the industry on a national level. It was a great reminder of the many Hereford breeders out there near and far and a wonderful sense of camaraderie. I will remember and consider my fellow board members as friends always. I will look forward to seeing all the great things this group will continue to accomplish and highly recommend membership to all women interested in the breed and the youth that will keep our industry viable.

Deb Carlson

What a quick four years! My four years on the women’s board has been a great growing experience for me. I have gotten to know many “great” Hereford women from all over the U.S. I truly believe “behind every good Hereford man is a good Hereford woman!”

The highlight of my tenure with the Hereford women was the annual spring board meeting outings; they were a great time to get to know and visit with fellow board members. After my four years with the Hereford women, I am not only going away as the “chore girl” for Carlson Cattle, I am an advocate for the Hereford breed.

During the school months, I will continue to serve as the 7th, 8th and 9th grade school counselor for Pioneer Jr./Sr. High School in Royal Center, Ind. Summer vacation will find me in the showbarn our son-in-law built, working with the show string. I will also be in “Grandma Training,” because Rachel will kick off our calving season the first of www.hereford.org

Hereford Association (NJHA) membership a paid, complimentary NHW membership. To promote and encourage NHW membership, the board will also wave dues for these members their second year of NHW membership. This decision is in accordance with the mission of the NHW — to promote women and youth of the Hereford breed.

The NHW board encourages all members to complete the Masters of Beef Advocacy Program. Information about the program is available on our Web site www.herefordwomen.com and blog www.barnaisle.blogspot.com. HW

March with our first grandchild. You will find me pushing a stroller around at junior nationals in Kansas City! Thanks for the memories.

Donna Fulton

I have enjoyed the opportunity to travel and meet many of the outstanding Hereford breeders across the country. One of the most rewarding experiences has been supporting the youth that continue to promote one of the foundation breeds of the country.

As my tenure on the board comes to an end, I will continue to co-own and manage H&C Hereford Farm near Lexington, N.C., with my husband, Rodney, and my mother, Maxine Koontz. Our two daughters, Tristen and Abigail, are active in local, county, state, and national junior Hereford shows. I will also continue teaching at North Davidson High School.

Susan Rader

What an experience I have had for four years on the national board. It was a thrill last year to be part of the newly formed NHW. My family has been in the Hereford business for over 25 years.

My husband, Mike, and I have two children, Steven and Sara.

Steven teaches high school ag science, and Sara is a sophomore at Tarleton State University.

We have all been very active with the Hereford industry. Serving as an officer and director and eventually president of the Texas Pollettes prepared me for the national board.

As both of my children have served in multiple offices and both as president of the Texas Junior Polled Hereford Association, Mike and I were head advisors. Working with the juniors and their parents was truly a blessing. Lifelong friendships were formed!

For the past 10 years, I have been secretary for the Northeast Texas Hereford Association. Getting the annual consignment sale ready each year has been exciting and, some years, a challenge.

I am employed with Jordan Health Services, one of the largest home health agencies in Texas, as an administrative assistant. This year marked my 10th year.

When I am not tending to the cattle, my hobbies include reading, oil painting (which I haven’t had time to do in years), traveling and being with family.

Thanks to everyone who voted for me four years ago to be on the national board! It has truly been the most wonderful experience of a lifetime. HW

The Angus name is becoming commodity. Almost every packer has its own private label Angus program. Certified Angus Beef’s exclusivity advantage has been diminished.

This year, retailers began shopping Angus products across packers in an attempt to drive the price down on what can be described as a commodity mindset. This interest in looking at other brands opens opportunity for Hereford products that can deliver as good or better quality from a natural, non-enhanced beef standpoint but yet be different enough to market against Angus.

Continued success of the Hereford brand will depend on how many marketers believe in and are sold on the brand.

Every day the number of people selling and communicating the quality attributes of CHB grows. Every time a foodservice distributor makes CHB its featured brand, between 30 and 100 new street salesmen begin to tell the story of the Hereford breed and the great quality it delivers.

CHB had a tremendous year for foodservice, experiencing 37.6% growth. New distribution channels were opened with Sysco Baraboo in Wisconsin, Sysco Minneapolis in Minnesota and Kohls Wholesale in southern Illinois with continued growth in Sysco Nashville in Tennessee, Sysco Virginia and Merchant Foodservice across the southeastern U.S. We are very proud that there are chefs across the country who are true believers in the brand. Shifting the wave of influence by creating a belief in your product and brand is the necessary ingredient to growth and long-term stability.

Overall CHB LLC reported an increase in tonnage of 3.5%.

Foodservice has now grown to nearly 20% of the 38 million lb. sold in 2010. HW

Strategy‌ The American Hereford Association (AHA) has been built on the hard work of thousands of dedicated cattlemen. Its purpose is to provide programs, services, technology and leadership designed to enhance the genetics of the Hereford breed, to broaden its influence within the industry and to expand the market for Hereford beef.

During fiscal year 2010, the 129-year-old member-driven organization continued to achieve those goals, and today, the Hereford breed is growing in demand as commercial producers seek out Hereford genetics to add heterosis, feed efficiency, longevity, fertility and docility to their black cow herds.

Year-end numbers show the Association experienced an increase in registrations and membership as production sale prices increased. The second largest cattle breed in the U.S., Hereford reports 64,907 registrations and 34,767 transfers with 101,677 cows on inventory. The Association has 3,441 active adult members and 2,244 active junior members.

The growth of Hereford demand has hinged on the Association’s ability to set strategy and to progress through new technologies, breed improvement and marketing programs. And with a new strategic road map, the Hereford breed is poised to continue to grow and succeed for years to come.

Fiscal year 2010 can best be summarized as the year the American Hereford Association (AHA) Board of Directors continued the advancement of the breed by reviewing the Association’s objectives and updating the strategic plan for continued success and growth of the breed.

The Board met in April and in August adopted a set of strategies, objectives and tactics that will continue to expand the influence of Hereford within the beef industry. The seven new core strategies are:

Today 24% of producers indicated that they are interested in purchasing a Hereford bull in the next three years. Hereford has the potential to capture the bull buying interest or market demand of one out of every four commercial cow-calf producers in the country during the next three years.

The 2009-10 national ad was developed to complement and expand the success of the “The Power of Black. Only Better.” campaign. With the continuing goal of touting Hereford efficiency, the themes “There’s no mama like a Hereford-sired mama” and “Hereford-sired mama: the one to bank on” were developed. Utilizing data from the Circle A Ranch Heterosis Project, the ads tout the value of Hereford-sired females.

AHA and CHB LLC were co-sponsors of the National Beef Cook-off Journalist Symposium during the National Beef Cook-off in Sonoma, Calif. More than 15 media professionals representing publications with a combined circulation of more than 12.4 million subscribers attended the event Sept. 22, 2009. Publications included Redbook, Woman’s Day, FIRST and Family Circle.

A highlight of the day was a tour stop at Kunde Family Estate winery. Hereford breeders Jim and Marcia Mickelson treated attendees to a behind-the-scenes tour of the winery including a stop to look at some fall-calving cows and new babies. Following the tour, a luncheon featuring grilled CHB® Denver cut steaks and Kunde wine was enjoyed at Kunde’s beautiful Boot Hill.

After the luncheon, the group returned to the The Lodge at Sonoma for a symposium that included presentations on new cuts from the chuck roll.

CHB product was used for the cutting, preparation and tasting demonstrations.

In early December 2009, redesigned Hereford Web sites were launched, including Hereford.org, JrHereford.org, HerefordWorld.org and HerefordYouthFoundation.org.

New features of the sites include: 1) Hereford Marketplace — the “place” to find Hereford genetics, 2) searchable Event Central — listing of all Hereford events and deadlines, 3) complete Hereford World — recent issues posted in flip format and an archive of Hereford World features and columns, 4) Education Center — Hereford information at your fingertips, 5) Forms Library — a listing of resources needed for adult and junior members and a robust search function to help browsers find the Hereford information they are looking for.

Matching buyers and sellers of Hereford genetics, BuyHereford.com is a marketing tool for producers, regardless of size. In November 2009, AHA launched BuyHereford.com, which features monthly consignment auctions, much like eBay®. Hereford breeders can participate in the monthly auctions or host their own BuyHereford.com sales.

A total of 161 Hereford production sales were reported by AHA field representatives this fiscal year. Bull sales averaged $3,261 and females $2,587. Across the board, Herefords averaged $97 more per lot on 9,573 total lots reported.

Spreading the Hereford message and creating more Hereford demand are the focus of Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI) and the AHA communications team. A concentrated effort is spent developing press releases and networking with media to promote the Hereford breed and brand. HPI produces the Hereford World World, which four times a year is printed in tabloid format and distributed to Hereford World subscribers as well as 15,000 commercial producers. Again this year the tabloid earned top newspaper honors in the Livestock Publications Council contest. HPI staff also earned first place sale catalog with the Hoffman-W4-Topp Annual Sale Catalog.

Economic uncertainty affected the food business in 2010, particularly hitting the retail supermarket trade. The value and sales volume of higher-value steak cuts were affected the greatest as consumers traded down to cheaper proteins in order to stretch their food dollars. That being said, a bright side for Certified Hereford Beef (CHB) LLC in 2010 was an increase in carcass utilization of 32 lb. per head due to the increased demand of chuck and round cuts.

Retailers reduced the featuring of CHB beef in favor of lower-priced poultry and pork features that attracted consumers to lower prices. Even though CHB reported an increase of 3.5% in tonnage in 2010 (38.1 million lb. sold), the revenue was down because the marketing royalties for end meats are four times less than the royalties for middle meats.

Foodservice sales were a big winner for the year — up 37.6% totaling 7.54 million lb. The signing of Sysco in Minneapolis along with continued growth with Kohls Wholesale in Illinois, growth in Sysco houses in Baraboo, Wis., Nashville, Tenn., and Norfolk, Va., and continued growth of Merchants Foodservice in the Southeast created additional restaurant trade that brings positive awareness to the brand.

Today, foodservice accounts for 20% of all CHB sales by volume, which is the highest percentage of sales there has been since the inception of the program.

Furthermore, the addition of Diaz Foods in Atlanta helped to replace much of the Superior Warehouse Nuestro Rancho business lost in the previous year. Nuestro Rancho has been a market for Select Hereford beef targeting Hispanic markets that are critical on price point.

2010 could be summarized as a year of research and development within the value-added concepts. CHB LLC realized significant start-up and development costs for valueadded concepts developed during the year, including hot dogs, burgers, corned beef, and seasoned and marinated lines. The Nuestro Rancho seasoned, marinated line may post a bright spot in the coming year as slotting fees have been paid in three different large distribution firms and repeat business is imminent.

This year, total slaughter numbers for baldie cattle were even with 2009 numbers at 378,621 head identified while carcass certification was down 14.7% (226,570 carcasses).

Despite the decline in certified carcasses, CHB LLC carcass utilization was up 32 lb. per head or 23%.

Pounds used per carcass averaged 168 lb. in the fiscal year compared to 136 lb. in 2009. The shift to end meats that carry a much lower royalty rate (1 cent per lb. compared to 4 to 5 cents per lb. on middle meats) contributed to much of the income decline in 2010.

Building on progress Focusing on growing commercial demand is not a new strategy. Since the implementation of the 2005 Strategic Plan, Hereford breeders and the AHA have worked to meet the needs of the commercial cattleman. Helping with progress in the commercial industry has been the AHA’s Whole-Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) program. Now 9 years old, the program has helped the AHA and Hereford breeders build a database that documents the breed’s strengths. More and more Hereford breeders continue to go above status quo and submit ultrasound data, body condition scores, udder scores and cow weights, which all add to the integrity and accuracy of the AHA database.

Likewise, the AHA breed improvement committee continues to raise the bar for testing young Hereford sires through the National Reference Sire Program (NRSP). This year approximately 2,000 commercial cows were enrolled in the program while 35 sires have been tested.

To expand data collected for the NRSP program, the AHA Board approved in August 2009 to partner with Olsen Ranch, Harrisburg, Neb., to install the GrowSafe system to collect feed intake data. This will allow AHA to collect intake data on larger groups of progeny through the NRSP program.

Whole-herd data collection and submission are giving Hereford the power to evaluate and develop selection traits to expand upon the basic expected progeny differences (EPDs) used today.

AHA released its first heifer calving rate (HCR) EPDs in late July. Using whole-herd data submitted, these values show genetic differences in Hereford sires for the likelihood of their daughters to calve as heifers.

HCR evaluation is another step toward providing a comprehensive genetic evaluation of Hereford cattle for as many economically important traits as is practical. Combined with information on calving ease, growth and maternal and carcass traits, HCR EPDs provide even greater opportunity for Hereford breeders to identify and propagate the most profitable genetics for their commercial bull customers.

Real-world research

Since 2005 AHA has sought out and participated in real-world heterosis research projects in order to validate Hereford’s role in the commercial industry.

These projects include Harris Ranch, Circle A Ranch, Amana and Genglebach Farms.

The Harris Ranch project was a three-year project with the third set of steers harvested last summer.

Overall net return for the Hereford-sired calves was approximately $30 per head in a vertically coordinated beef marketing system.

Because of the length of the project, researchers were only able to collect limited data on reproductive performance. Pregnancy rates on yearling heifers identified back to Hereford or Angus sires were collected in years two and three of the study. In both instances, there was a 7% advantage in pregnancy to the Hereford-sired cattle.

The Harris Ranch data was similar to that of the Circle A Ranch Heterosis Project. Scientists agree the long-term implications of higher pregnancy in yearling heifers are dramatic. In addition, there is the documented effect of increased calf livability, increased rebreeding rates and, most notably, a dramatic increase in longevity.

When the Circle A data were analyzed by Vern Pierce, University of Missouri, for economic emphasis, the results showed an advantage of $514 A functioning part of the Hereford Youth Foundation of America net per cow over a 10-year period or $51 difference per cow per year.

In October 2009 the AHA Board, along with the HYFA board, formed a research foundation committee to raise funds and help support special With a focused strategy and a product that can fit research projects. The first BuyHereford.com online fund-raising auction the needs of commercial cattlemen, Hereford is set for the Hereford Research Foundation gathered more than $20,000 to to continue its industry resurgence and success for benefit Hereford research projects July 13.

Nature of Operations The American Hereford Association (AHA) conducts research and experiments in the breeding of Hereford cattle, compiles and preserves pedigree records for owners and breeders, participates in and promotes the arrangement of fairs, exhibitions and cattle shows to encourage the breeding of Hereford cattle, and assists with the promotion of the end product produced from Hereford cattle. Members and subscribers of the Association are primarily owners and breeders of Hereford cattle. The members and subscribers are located worldwide; however, the largest concentration is within the United States.

Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI) provides publication services to Hereford cattle ranches and publishes a monthly magazine.

The Association is the sole member of Certified Hereford Beef ® LLC (CHB).

CHB strives to increase demand for Hereford cattle by promoting Hereford beef as a premium beef product under the Certified Hereford Beef ® trademark. CHB was formed as a limited liability company on September 1, 2001. Prior to that date, CHB’s activities were performed and accounted for within the Association.

American Beef Records Association (ABRA) provides computer consultation in herd planning and management, breeding services and marketing for commercial livestock.

Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include AHA and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI), Certified Hereford Beef® LLC (CHB) and American Beef Records Association (ABRA) collectively referred to as the Association. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Management Estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

Advertising Costs The Association expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.

Advertising expense was $473,273 and $434,495 as of August 31, 2010 and 2009.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation The Association reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets.

• Unrestricted net assets are funds available for any purpose.

• Temporarily restricted net assets represent contributions whose use by the Association is limited by donor-imposed stipulations that either expire by passage of time or can be fulfilled and removed by actions of the Association pursuant to those stipulations.

When a stipulated restriction ends or purpose of restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the Statement of Activities as net assets released from restrictions.

• Permanently restricted net assets — At August 31, 2010 and 2009, the Association had no permanently restricted net assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents The Association considers all money market investments and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Investments amounting to $124,356 and $564,429 were considered to be cash equivalents as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable consist of amounts billed for magazine advertising, subscriptions and member services, but not received by year-end. Bad debts are provided on the allowance method based on management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of each year. HPI’s policy states that accounts with outstanding balances beyond 60 days will accrue interest at 1.5% per month, balances beyond 90 days will no longer be provided with services and balances beyond 120 days will be turned over to a collection agency. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $31,364 and $31,364 as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

Investments Investments are comprised of debt securities and are carried at fair value. The fair value of investments is based on quoted fair prices for those investments or similar investments as of August 31, 2010 and 2009. Gains or losses on sales of investments are determined on a specific cost identification method.

Unrealized gains and losses are determined based on year-end market values.

Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost.

Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The assets are depreciated and amortized over periods ranging from 5 to 30 years. Additions and improvements of $1,000 or more are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the life of the asset are expensed in the year incurred. Depreciation charged against income amounted to $159,694 and $137,699 in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Revenue Recognition The Association recognizes service fee revenue over the applicable accounting period to which the services relate. Unearned revenues related to Association services and publication subscriptions and advertising of HPI are reflected as deferred revenue on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Functional Allocation of Expenses The costs of providing the various programs and activities have been summarized on a functional basis in the Consolidated Statement of Activities. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated among the program services and supporting activities benefited.

Income Taxes AHA, ABRA, and CHB are exempt from federal income taxes on their primary operations under paragraph 501(c)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code, and therefore have made no provision for federal or state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. They are, however, subject to income taxes on any net income from unrelated business activities. AHA, ABRA, and CHB have been classified by the Internal Revenue Service as organizations that are not private foundations. HPI is a taxable entity and is, therefore, subject to federal income

See the accompanying independent auditor’s report and notes to consolidated financial statements.

2010 AHA Annual Report 7

taxes. It is HPI’s policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. At August 31, 2010, HPI believes it has appropriately accounted for any unrecognized tax benefits.

To the extent HPI prevails in matters for which a liability for unrecognized tax benefit is established or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, HPI’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected.

2 — Concentration of Credit Risk

The Association adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) Section 740-10 on September 1, 2009, which covers uncertainty in income taxes. The cumulative effect of adopting FASB ASC Section 740-10 had no effect on the Association’s financial position or results of operations.

The Association files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction. The Association is no longer subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years ended prior to August 31, 2007.

The Association maintains cash accounts at a bank located in the Kansas City metropolitan area. The balances in the bank periodically exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits. The FDIC insured limits were $250,000 at August 31, 2010 and 2009. The Association’s uninsured cash balances totaled $76,394 and $96,206 at August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

7 — Temporarily Restricted Net Assets Temporarily restricted net assets are funds donated for the purpose of awarding $2,500 annually to the champion of the National Western Stock Show in Denver. The balance of temporarily restricted net assets was $7,500 and $10,000 as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

3 — Fair Value Measurements

8 — Collections

Fair values of assets measured on a recurring basis at August 31, 2010 and 2009 are: August 31, 2010 Fair Value Quoted prices in active markets

for identical assets (Level 1) Government bonds and notes $971, 704 $971, 704 Corporate bonds $586,492 $586,492

Total $1,558,196 $1,558,196

August 31, 2009 Government bonds and notes $947,632 $947,632 Corporate bonds $77,216 $77,216

Total $1,024,848 $1,024,848

Investments consist of money market funds as well as government and corporate bonds and notes which are carried at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. There were no significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Unrealized gains in the amount of $27,913 and $19,742 were recorded to adjust investments to fair value for the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

These investments are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term.

The Association has a collection of artwork, appraised at approximately $308,600, at August 31, 2010 and 2009, that is on public display at the Association’s headquarters.

The Association has adopted a policy of not capitalizing the collection of artwork in its financial statements. Accordingly, no collection items are recognized as assets, whether they are purchased or received as a donation. Purchases of collection items reduce net assets in the period when purchased. No items were purchased for or removed from the collection during the years ended August 31, 2010 or 2009.

The Association insures these collections with a policy that has a face value consistent with the appraised values.

4 — Retirement Plan The Association established a defined contribution employee retirement plan for all eligible employees. The plan provides for employer and employee contributions based on a percentage of annual compensation. Employer contributions for the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 were $86,692 and $81,289, respectively.

5 — Long-Term Debt Long-term debt consists of the following at August 31: Notes - vehicles, collateralized by related vehicles, interest fixed at 4.99%, maturing from July 2012 through April 2013 Current portion

9 —Other Assets On October 4, 2006, AHA entered into an agreement with Seabiscuit Park, LLC to purchase approximately 10 acres of land for a purchase price of $1,306,800. In 2007, AHA made a deposit of $250,000 of earnest money which was classified as an other asset on the consolidated financial statements.

Interest earned on the escrow account totaled $468 and $1,082 for the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had accumulated earnings of $12,255 from its inception.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, the members and lenders of Seabiscuit Park, LLC decided to not move forward with the planned development.

After the cancellation of the development, AHA petitioned to have its deposit refunded. The balance of the deposit plus earnings was repaid to the Association less $50,000 which was deemed non-refundable and resulted in a $50,000 loss recorded on AHA’s books for the year ended August 31, 2010.

10 — Accumulated Deficit and Management Plan for Certified Hereford Beef (CHB) CHB showed a decrease in net assets of $308,640 and $185,746 during the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The deficit equity balance amounted to $1,143,308 and $834,668 as of August 31, 2010 and 2009. CHB has experienced difficulty in generating sufficient program revenues to offset rising program expenses. Management is developing plans to generate additional unrestricted revenues and to significantly reduce operating costs. These plans call for increased oversight and management from the Association, resulting in no further decrease in net assets in the upcoming fiscal year ending August 31, 2011. The Association will continue to evaluate the success of these efforts in determining the future of CHB.

Scheduled maturities of principal payments on the liabilities are as follows: Year Amount Year Amount 2011 $31,749 2014 – 2012 32,609 2015 – 6,036 Thereafter – 2013

11 — Reclassifications

$70,394

Interest expense was $4,492 and $1,320 for the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Management has evaluated subsequent events through September 30, 2010, the date which the financial statements were available for issue. There have been no events which require disclosure.

Certain accounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current year financial statements.

6 — Income Taxes

The provisions for income taxes consist of the following components for the years ended August 31:

2010 2009 Current $– $– Deferred Temporary differences 10,212 5,906 Change in valuation allowance (10,212) (5,906)

$ – $–

The tax provision differs from the expense that would result from applying statutory rates to income before income taxes because of the valuation allowance applied against the deferred income tax assets.

Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of HPI’s assets and liabilities. Differences are primarily attributable to the net operating loss carryforwards, resulting in deferred tax assets. The components of the deferred tax assets are as follows: Deferred Tax Assets Net operating loss carryforwards Less: Valuation Allowance

2010 $189,386 189,386 $ –

2009 $199,598 199,598 $–

HPI utilized net operating losses of approximately $32,319 and $17,371 for the years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

HPI has net operating loss carryforwards of $557,017 available to offset future federal and state taxable income that expire through 2023 as follows: Year Amount Year 2011 $– 2014 2012 2,283 2015 156,011 Thereafter 2013

Serving M the Breed

by Sara Gugelmeyer

arshall Ernst knows about beef. He was raised in the Hereford business and worked for more than 30 years in the meat packing industry. He just wrapped up a term on the American Hereford Association (AHA) Board of Directors after serving the last two years as Certified Hereford Beef (CHB) LLC president. He may now be retired from the Board, but his Hereford operation is thriving, and he has no plans to end his commitment to the breed.

Marshall and his wife, Barbara, started their own Hereford herd in 1977 and have continued to improve their genetics ever since.

Marshall stayed busy with his day job as well. He worked in the meat packing industry for decades, moving from Wisconsin to Ohio and eventually settling in Windsor, Colo. He worked for such industry giants as Smithfield Foods, Johnsonville Sausage, Sara Lee Meat Group, ConAgra Beef Co., and Swift and Co. throughout his career, overseeing everything from hog and cattle processing facilities to value-added and further processed product manufacturing. He retired from Swift in 2006 and became a full-time cattleman.

Ernst Herefords truly is a family business. Barbara and their four

Marshall speaks about CHB during the 2010 American Royal.

Ernst Herefords is truly a family endeavor. Pictured here is Stephanie, Chad, Jeremy, Kevin, Kathryn, Marshall and Barbara. Daughter Melissa is not pictured.

Marshall Ernst discusses his time on the AHA and CHB LLC Boards, speculates on the future.

kids, Melissa, Stephanie, Katheryn and Kevin, have always been a part of the operation. “Barbara is the glue that holds us all together and is there to help with the cattle, farm work, meals or when one of us just needs Mom,” Marshall says. Melissa and Stephanie are now married, but they and their husbands, Jeremy and Chad, help out as much as they can. Katheryn and Kevin are both college students but still play a large role in the operation. Kevin, who is a National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) director, is especially involved since he is close to home and can help often.

All of the children were or are active in the NJHA. The Ernst family has shown at junior nationals every year but one since 1990.

Ernst Herefords is a purebred seedstock operation, which sells bulls to both registered and commercial cattle operations. “We are currently in a herd building mode but do sell some top-quality show heifer projects to juniors,” Marshall explains.

The Ernst family has seen success in the showring. Kevin showed the reserve champion carcass steer at the 2010 Junior National Hereford Expo, marking the fifth time one of the Ernst children has shown either continued on page 40...

Q&A with Marshall Ernst What do we need to work on as a breed?

Demand for Hereford bulls going back on the predominantly black commercial cow herd is as good as I have seen it in my lifetime. As breeders we need to be sure that we are producing the kind of cattle that are in demand by commercial cattlemen and will make them money. We need to be sure and only keep bulls that deliver quality attributes.

The combination of low to moderately low birth weights along with cattle that have solid growth and performance are two of the keys. Carcass traits must be right there as well, particularly in regard to marbling.

As an Association, we need to stay abreast of the fast moving and developing science of genomics and be ready to utilize science to keep the Hereford breed in a position of prominence. The AHA staff and Board of Directors spend a lot of time staying up to speed with new research as it becomes available and are in constant contact with genomics companies. Genomics is an area we must continue to be on top of.

Research over the past few years with projects like the Lacey and Circle A crossbreeding programs have given the AHA good data to spread the word about the value of Hereford bulls in crossbreeding programs. The AHA must continue this research.

The advertising program using the “Black only Better” theme and several other Hereford heterosis emphasis ads seem to have traction with commercial cattlemen. We need to continue those programs.

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced as CHB president?

The largest challenges facing CHB over the past two years are undoubtedly the economic conditions of the country. We have found good interest in our CHB® product, but because the economy has been slow, consumers are buying lower priced proteins, particularly chicken and pork.

In addition, when they buy beef, they are buying more of the chuck and round cuts. That causes CHB LLC revenue problems because we generate dollars from the sale of products with middle meats returning us three cents per pound and end meats one to two cents per pound.

The economy also impacts retailers’ decisions to change from one program to another, say from a Black Canyon Angus program to CHB. It costs the retailer a lot of money to trade out programs, and at a time when they are struggling to make profit, they are reluctant to change.

Have the goals you set when elected CHB president been accomplished?

My goals were to increase volume and bring CHB at least to a breakeven in revenue. This did not happen. We have www.hereford.org

however established some things that I believe position CHB to get to that point in the near future and perhaps in fiscal year 2011.

The first is that we have developed a line of further processed products under the Nuestro Rancho line that is a CHB trademarked label. These products are seasoned and marinated in 10 to 12 oz. packages and have gained significant interest in stores that we had never been able to get any of our products into. The margins on these products are in the 20 to 30 cents per pound range. This line can change our profitability significantly while at the same time help us establish positive relationships with retailers to allow us to introduce CHB whole muscle products in the future.

We are in the process of establishing licensing agreements with several brokers that are doing a very good job of promoting CHB, particularly in the upper Midwest.

There are several presentations to large retailers in the Ohio Valley and, believe it or not, in Puerto Rico happening as I speak.

We have acceptance from a high-level executive in the retail sector to join our CHB board of directors. This will be the first time we have had someone so closely involved in the trade be a member of that board, and we look to gain significant insight and assistance from this gentleman’s advice and counsel.

We have made significant changes to the staff at CHB. We are leaner and meaner but loaded with a lot more years of experience than we have had in the past. That is why we are seeing some of the contacts start to develop that were mentioned above.

In the new strategic plan is an objective to grow CHB. What do you think is necessary to make that happen?

I believe that the investment all of us have made as members to this point in CHB has been money well spent. I also believe that it is time that this program starts to pay for itself or at least be more neutral in revenue than it has been.

If we had the financial wherewithal to do it, I would like to see CHB become a separate entity from the AHA. We don’t currently have the resources to do that, but if we look at Certified Angus Beef’s history, there were several times that the American Angus Association almost shut the program down.

Fortunately for them they did not. The program really started clicking when it had a structure in place that was fully focused on beef sales and everyone can see where they are at today.

We have a great product, and doing the hard work in the trenches every day and having the most and best qualified people we can have working for the growth of CHB is what will make the program successful. We will need to add to the board more outside industry leadership, like the gentleman I spoke of earlier, that can provide meaningful industry information and help us with contacts and support. HW

champion or reserve champion carcass steer at the junior national.

The National Western Stock Show (NWSS) is also a very important show for Ernst Herefords.

In fact, Marshall was recently named the livestock manager of the NWSS. This winter will be the ninth consecutive year the family has exhibited cattle there. “Denver has become a major marketing event for us because we are only 50 miles north of the stock show grounds,” Marshall says. “We have had the opportunity to present our breeding program to both commercial and purebred breeders there with very good results.”

Being successful at Denver has helped drive demand for Ernst cattle. “Kevin and Katheryn have each shown a champion female in the junior show on the Hill,”

Marshall explains. “In 2009 we exhibited the champion yearling pen of bulls, and in 2010 we placed reserve in the spring bull pen show behind the overall champion pen in that division. In 2009 we had the high-selling bull and pen in the Western Heritage All-Breed Bull Sale in the Yards.”

The cattle operation is a family endeavor and so is serving the breed. Before Marshall’s recent retirement from the Board, he, Barbara and Kevin were all directors in their respective organizations. Marshall says, “I grew up with Hereford cattle and love Hereford cattle and honestly, in the livestock industry, I think Hereford people are the nicest ones out there. I just want to give back to the people that have done so much for me since I was a boy.” HW

Ernst Herefords has had great success at Denver, not only in the showring, but it has also helped drive sales. Pictured bottom left is Marshall and his daughter Melissa. Top right: Ernst Herefords exhibited the reserve champion spring bull calf pen at the 2010 National Western Stock Show.

Speaking Out Several Hereford breeders from across the country are speaking out for the beef industry, taking a stand against the false negativity that surrounds cattle production.

by Christy Couch Lee

I

t’s impossible to avoid it.

Negative press surrounding the beef industry on the national news and in national publications seems to arise weekly. Animal activist groups, including the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), with a 2008 budget of more than $131 million, make it well known that a world without livestock production is their ultimate goal.

So, what is a cattleman to do? It’s simple. Take a stand for the industry.

Several Hereford breeders across the country — including Kyle McMillan, Sam Shaw and Susan Gebhart — are doing their part, speaking out to portray the industry in a positive light and tout the positives of beef production.

Although the task may seem daunting, these producers say that

Kyle McMillan, Ohio, Ill., says Hereford producers must speak out for their industry. “If we don’t speak up, it’s very possible that all of livestock or meat animal production could be moved abroad.”

48 Hereford World / November 2010

with a little training and the right motivation, every cattleman can take a stand. And, in this uncertain world, that’s exactly what it’s going to take to thrive and survive against such strong opposition.

Getting their start McMillan, Shaw and Gebhart may not have realized it when they were young, but their lives have prepared them to be advocates for the industry.

McMillan was raised on a small Hereford operation in Highland, Ill., where he was active in 4-H and FFA. He became involved in the state and national Hereford organizations, serving as the National Junior Polled Hereford Council president in 1994.

His parents, Ed and Judy McMillan, Greenville, Ill., have been instrumental in his Hereford involvement, and Ed currently serves on the Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) board of directors.

McMillan received a bachelor’s degree in agricultural economics from the University of Illinois and then earned his master’s degree from Colorado State University, specializing in beef industry leadership.

He has received media training for the past 15 years, first through his junior board experience.

Most recently, he participated in the two-year Illinois Agricultural Leadership Foundation, through which participants attend 16 seminars, meet with politicians in

Washington, D.C., and travel abroad to learn about agriculture around the world.

Although McMillan works off the farm as a national sales manager for BASF plant science, he still remains active in the Hereford industry.

Today, he and his family — wife, Jodi, and daughter, Lauren — run a small Hereford operation in Ohio, Ill., focusing on donor cows and cooperator herds to raise embryo calves, with a primary focus on junior show cattle.

Idaho cattleman Sam Shaw also grew up in the Hereford industry.

Sam and his family raise registered Hereford, Angus and Red Angus on their ranch near Caldwell, that was established by his grandfather, Tom Shaw.

Sam served on the American Junior Hereford Association board of directors for three years and was selected by the American Hereford Association to attend the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Young Cattlemen’s Conference.

He attended the University of Idaho, where he received his bachelor’s degree in agricultural business in 1999, and then returned to the family ranch. He ranches alongside his parents, Greg and Cleo; brother and sister-in-law, Tucker and Angie; and wife, Janel.

Today, Shaw Cattle Co. consists of 900 mother cows, which calve in the spring and fall. In midFebruary, the Shaws host an annual production sale, selling www.hereford.org

We are always open to them.”

about 250 bulls, 60 crossbred heifers and 40 purebred heifers out of the top end of their replacement females.

Currently, Shaw is active in local and state cattlemen’s associations, serving as the

purebred council chair for the Idaho Cattlemen’s Association.

Susan Gebhart and her husband, Richard, raise Herefords with their family on the land settled in 1910 by her grandparents in Claremore, Okla.

Their current cattle operation began when their children became active in FFA. Every family member, including daughter Roxane and daughter Erica and her husband, Matt Boyer, works off the ranch.

However, the ranch is a family affair.

Each Gebhart family member has a role in the operation, and all of them enjoy traveling as a family to exhibit their cattle at the top livestock shows in the country.

Although these three individuals’ backgrounds are diverse, their mission is the same: to help preserve and protect the cattle industry by letting their voices be heard.

Why it’s important McMillan believes it is critical for cattlemen to speak out for their industry.

“Activist groups have extremely deep pockets, and they have an

Cattlemen get social with social media

The beef checkoff program is utilizing Masters of Beef Advocacy (MBA) graduates — and beef producers, in general — to make a presence in social media, including Twitter and Facebook.

Last fall, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) conducted a “Food Fight” campaign in response to the Time article regarding food production in America in which beef was cited as a cause of global warming, obesity and heart disease, says Daren Williams, NCBA executive director of communications.

“Producers were saying, ‘What is going on? This doesn’t resemble anything we know to be true about this industry,” Williams says. “We are really in a fight for modern beef production. We’ve got to engage in this.”

In November 2009 NCBA launched a “Give Thanks” program, through which producers were encouraged to “give thanks” for beef and beef producers. Activities included sending “Give Thanks” letters to the editor, handing out business cards, using e-mail signatures, social media posts, viral “Give Thanks” e-mails, and encouraging

unparalleled passion about their viewpoints,” McMillan says. “If we, as producers, don’t engage in that dialog with the public, our message will not be heard. If we don’t speak up, it’s very possible that all of livestock or meat animal production could be moved abroad.”

Shaw says, as the general public becomes more removed from the farm, producers must stand as the voice of agriculture.

“It used to be that a large percentage of the general public continued on page 50 ...

producers and consumers to volunteer at a food bank.

In February 2010 NCBA conducted the “I Heart Beef” campaign in February. Beef producers and industry supporters showed their love of beef by changing their profile photos to the “I Heart Beef” logo, writing “love letters” to beef on the “Beef. It’s what’s for dinner” Facebook page and entering discussions about why beef is the perfect complement to a romantic dinner.

In addition, Williams says, beef producers have become stronger advocates in online media. One such example was a stream of comments in support of the beef industry in regards to a Washington Post article negatively portraying beef production on the environment. And, when [yellow tail] wine announced a $100,000 donation to the Humane Society of the United States in February, livestock producers filled the [yellow tail] Facebook page with notes of their concern and removal of support for the company.

saying how bad they are for it.

The ranchers are out there being stewards of the land. That’s how they make their living. If they abuse the land, it won’t be there.

“But, those groups have a lot of money, and they know a lot of lawyers and judges,” Shaw continues.

“They can take someone to court, and whether you’re right or wrong, you have to hire a lawyer to defend yourself. It can be costly.”

Ultimately, with the proper training, producers may be able to be a proactive voice against opposition.

But, where is a person to begin?

Learning the ropes

Producers need to be prepared to speak out for the industry so consumers like these continue to buy beef at the marketplace. Pictured here is Mandy-Jo Laurent from Texas, a MBA graduate and National Beef Ambassador.

were rural, or from an agricultural background,” Shaw says. “We have to tell our story. If we don’t, the media will. And, sometimes, the media will get something and run with it, and it might not all be true.”

Shaw has witnessed first-hand the devastation of misinformation in the public.

“In the West we have a lot of Bureau of Land Management — government-owned — ground,” Shaw says. “Groups are trying to kick ranchers off the ground,

McMillan recommends seeking a mentor actively engaged in the community, in order to gain insight into how to serve as an ambassador for the industry.

In addition, he says, preparing a “30-second elevator speech” is key.

“I liken it to Hereford producers,” McMillan says. “If someone asks about your Hereford operation, you should be able to tell that person all about your operation in 30 seconds.

You also need to have that same 30-second sound bite about issues in the industry. You must be educated and aware. And, you should be able to shore it up with current facts and statistics about what’s going on in the industry today.”

McMillan says it’s also critical that cattlemen are aware of all

50 Hereford World / November 2010

aspects of the agricultural industry — not only the cattle industry.

“It’s important to stay up to speed with what’s going on out there — not only with our industry but with those who touch agriculture,” McMillan says. “For example, if the beef industry does not pay attention to the swine or dairy industries, one regulation could get passed that could ultimately affect beef production.”

In addition to staying aware of current issues, Shaw and his family have also implemented an opendoor policy with the media.

“We never turn away a news group,” Shaw says. “We are always open to them. They’re always so amazed when they get out here. The cows look good, and we have nice green grass and fresh water.”

Not only does this relationship work well in good times, sometimes it works well in challenging times for the industry, as well.

“When they get a bad story, they’re going to call you if they know you,” Shaw says. “And, you can sometimes head them off. Very few people in this industry have something to hide. For the most part, everyone is proud of their place and their cattle and what they’re producing. Let people see it.”

McMillan recommends producers become actively involved with their state beef associations in addition to the NCBA. Not only does this involvement keep producers up to date on current events, it also provides formal training for advocacy.

One such program, which Gebhart recently completed, is the beef checkoff-funded Masters of Beef Advocacy (MBA) program.

Daren Williams, NCBA executive director of communications, says since the program’s inception last March, 1,625 cattlemen have completed the online courses and “graduated” and about 1,600 are currently enrolled.

“The goal of our program is to equip beef producers and allies to be everyday advocates for the beef industry,” Williams says. “Our goal www.hereford.org

is for producers to be well versed in all issues impacting the industry, so they can serve as our ground troops in this battle going on about how food is produced.”

In the program producers complete six one-hour online training sessions, and complete a series of homework assignments such as giving a presentation about the benefits of beef in their local communities. An optional commencement concludes the MBA experience.

Gebhart says the program taught her how to answer consumers’ questions about the beef industry.

“They do a good job of teaching you how to encapsulate answers to little pearls of information that you need to get across,” Gebhart says.

“They teach you to answer questions their market research team knows people have. And, it teaches you to sometimes weave things in without a person even asking the question.”

And, often, producers can be most effective through subtle approaches.

Telling the story Gebhart says, with every family member working off the ranch, members of her family are presented with many unique opportunities to educate the public. Susan and Erica work in a business specializing in training members of the medical field; Richard is a professor at the University of Tulsa; and Matt is an agriculture teacher in Claremore.

“The thing about having town jobs and ranching on the side, it gives you this unique opportunity to drop tidbits here, there and yon’,” Susan says. “You never know the people you’ll cross paths with and the impact you’ll have.”

In addition, the Gebhart family has established a Web site and blog for their ranch and dog sales: www.threechicksontheranch.com.

Through this site, the Gebharts share humorous stories of life on the ranch, with an underlying goal of educating the general public in the process.

“I find that people that go to look at my puppies will start www.hereford.org

“Beef producers, and cattlemen, in general, are encouraged to find their niche. What can they do on a daily, weekly or monthly basis to engage in this discussion?”

— Daren Williams reading our cattle blog,” Gebhart says. “I tell funny stories, and people think it’s fun to read. I’ve really learned from my dog blog — I tell a lot of stories. We try to tell the stories before people have an objection to what we do.”

Williams says there’s no “formula” for how producers should speak out for the industry. In fact, he says, some of the most successful advocates simply do what fits them best.

One producer set up a table at his homeowners’ association event, with a sign saying, “Ask me about beef.” Another retired beef producer has begun giving presentations at senior centers about the importance of protein later in life, Williams says.

“Beef producers, and cattlemen, in general, are encouraged to find their niche,” Williams says. “What can they do on a daily, weekly or monthly basis to engage in this discussion?”

In order to engage in the discussion and cast a positive light on the industry, McMillan recommends producers develop guidelines and standard operating procedures for their ranch or farm.

“The beef industry has an opportunity to grow in all segments of the industry,” McMillan says.

“We should be reinforcing positive actions and implementing programs at a local level. Producers should become active on a local level or seek out other like-minded individuals to combine resources and become more efficient.”

Today, McMillan and his wife, Jodi, serve as the Illinois Polled Hereford Association secretary in addition to working with the Illinois Beef Association and surrounding state beef associations to promote state Hereford events.

Shaw works to put a face to agriculture, visiting with state senators as part of his Idaho Cattlemen’s Association board responsibilities.

“Even in Idaho, which is a rural state, many senators come from Boise and have no connection with agriculture,” Shaw says.

A producer’s chosen method of advocacy is not nearly as important as the simple act of getting out and taking a stand.

Don’t be shy If producers choose not to speak out, McMillan believes the result will be simple.

“If producers don’t speak out, it’s almost simple and straightforward,” McMillan says.

“The industry may not exist in the near future. Activist groups are so well armed from a financial and passion standpoint, they could regulate all of agriculture out of the United States.”

Shaw says he understands how intimidating speaking out can seem.

“That’s a tough deal,” he says. “But, I’ll say this: this is our industry. If we don’t speak for ourselves, someone else will. If it’s truly something you love and enjoy, you’re not looking for another job.

I want to have a ranch here, and I want my kids to be able to come back here, if they choose.”

Despite the misinformation circulating about the beef industry today, cattlemen take pride in producing a safe, wholesome and healthy product for consumers.

It’s time for the public to see this truth for themselves. Cattlemen, it’s time to take a stand for your industry. HW

F rom the F ield In Passing John Arthur “Jack” Nelson, Drummond, Mont., passed away Aug. 2.

Jack was a lifetime rancher in the Flint Creek Valley and still lived at the family ranch in Drummond.

After graduating from high school, Jack worked for the Dingwall Bros. on their ranch. In 1942 Jack married Onita Kolbeck, and eventually the Dingwalls turned the ranch over to Jack and Onita, where they lived all 67 years of their marriage.

Jack was proud of the registered polled Hereford cattle that were raised and shipped from the ranch all over the U.S. and even to Chile. In the early 1990s, the ranch transitioned to a strictly commercial cattle herd.

Jack is survived by his wife, Onita; son, Gordon Nelson; daughter, Joy Wetsch; three grandsons; and two great-granddaughters.

L.A. “Cotton” Bartlett, 66, Pleasant Hill, Mo., passed away Aug. 12.

Cotton was a farmer and rancher and had been employed at the Lee’s Summit Animal Clinic as a veterinary tech for 31 years. Prior to that he had worked as a herdsman for Circle L Ranch in Greenwood, Ark., and also had worked for the Lone Summit Ranches in Lee’s Summit, Mo. Jerry D. Merry, 55, Caldwell, Ohio, passed away Sept. 13.

He was a lifetime farmer and polled Hereford breeder.

Jerry Merry Jerry was recognized by the AHA in 2004 for his family having Herefords for 100 years. The Ohio Buckeye Hereford Association inducted Jerry and his wife, Brenda, into the Hall of Merit in January 2010.

Through the years, Jerry worked for Charlie and Larry Cowgill at Cowgill Chevrolet in Caldwell. He then moved on to the Marietta Coal Co. in St. Clairsville, then to Nicolozakes Trucking and Construction Co. Inc. in Cambridge, Ohio. He had served on the Farmers and Merchants Bank board since January 1989.

54 Hereford World / November 2010

Jerry was active in and served on the board of the Noble County Cattleman’s Association, the Switzerland Polled Hereford Association, the Buckeye Hereford Association and the Ohio Cattleman’s Association as well as the National Cattleman’s Association.

He is survived by his wife, Brenda; two sons, Johnny and Ryan; and two granddaughters.

Ralph E. Dodson, 87, Henderson, Tenn., passed away Sept.

26, following a short illness.

Ralph was a retired Ralph Dodson American Hereford Association (AHA) fieldman and former U.S. Navy Lieutenant.

Ralph attended the University of Tennessee at Martin and the University of Tennessee at Knoxville before entering the U.S. Navy at the beginning of World War II. He served in the South Pacific, where he was a bomber pilot and chief air intelligence officer. His aircrew flew in the first airstrike against Tokyo, where he took one direct hit to the left wing of his plane called “The Rebel.” His fighter crew shot down 208 enemy planes.

After the war he again attended the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, where he earned a master’s degree in animal husbandry in 1951.

He met and married his first wife, Dorothy, in 1952. She preceded him in death in 1976.

He worked for the University of Tennessee Agricultural Farm as manager of cattle operations until 1961, when he joined the AHA staff.

He worked as a fieldman promoting the Hereford cattle industry in all areas east of the Mississippi River for 27 years until his retirement in 1988.

Ralph is survived by his wife of 23 years, Tina; along with two daughters, Holly Speight and Leslie Hunt; three grandchildren; and two greatgrandsons. Memorials may be made to the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA), PO Box 014059, Kansas City, MO 64101.

Tom Shaw, 84, Caldwell, Idaho, passed away Oct. 1.

Tom got started in the Hereford business when he received his Tom Shaw first registered heifer as a graduation gift in 1944. He joined the Navy but returned to the family farm in 1946 with his new wife, Mary, and they started their Hereford herd with that first female.

Performance testing has always been a big part of the Shaw program.

Tom started the first performance bull test in the Northwest in 1969 in cooperation with the University of Idaho. He also helped start the Idaho beef improvement program. Since 1969 the Shaws have collected carcass data, and more recently ultrasound technology has also been utilized.

Tom made it a priority to be involved in the breed leadership and to represent Hereford breeders’ interests in the industry. He served from 1978 to 1985 on the AHA Board of Directors, with one term as president. He also served on the boards of the former National Cattlemen’s Association, Beef Improvement Federation, Idaho Cattlemen’s Association, Idaho Beef Board, Idaho Hereford Breeders and the Eastern Oregon Hereford Breeders Association. Tom was inducted into the Hereford Hall of Fame in 2009.

He was a 4-H leader for many years and was active in his church, both in Caldwell and Cascade.

Tom is survived by his loving wife of 64 years, Mary; a daughter, Linda Draney; two sons, Tim and Greg; 10 grandchildren; and 25 greatgrandchildren.

• This heifer calf is the complete package. She has a killer profile, tons of rib shape, lots of extension through her front end and a killer “look”. She has a lot of substance underneath and is built from the ground up with base width and bone and has flawless structure.

• We made a commitment to bring our best heifer to the Reno sale and this one had many friends during the WSHA Field Day so we decided to bring her. She is from one of our very best cow families and her full sister was named 2010 Western Washington Fair Champion Female, one of the toughest Hereford shows on the west coast. We named her accordingly as we feel she has big time potential .

• She sells open.

• She sells open.

• We are very excited to offer our very best heifer for the first time! This outstanding heifer calf is uniquely bred to be an incredible producing cow.

• Her sire speaks for himself at the job he has done for the Hereford business. Her dam is an ideal Hereford cow that has a very good udder, a big hip, lots of fleshing ability and is moderate, square made and attractive. She has a perfect pedigree and an ideal set of numbers for anyone wanting to build a cow herd.

• She sells open.
