Beyond the Finish Line

I hear the “beep, beep, beep,” of my alarm in the morning about an hour before the time that I would prefer to start my day. I keep thinking maybe I should change my phone alarm to something sweeter and more pleasant to wake to in the early hours of the morning, but I also know the cute sounds of birds chirping, or something like that, would be easier to sleep through. After hitting the “snooze” button once or twice in denial of what I need to do, I pull myself out of bed, fumble my way to the kitchen and make the usual, peanut butter toast with a little bit of honey drizzled on top. I make my way to the couch to watch the news and to eat breakfast — you know, the early morning news that comes on before the regular morning news. After my meal has settled, I change into my athletic shorts and tank top and lace up my running shoes. I grab my earbuds, set the music to something with a good beat and leave the house for what has become my semi-daily morning run. Some mornings when my feet hit the pavement near my apartment in Kansas City, I feel proud and accomplished that I’m sticking to a commitment I made months ago. Many mornings, though, it isn’t until I round the corner and head up the last hill of my 3-5 mile run that was such a challenge to complete that I think to

/ November 2016

myself, “good, glad I got that out of the way for today.” Back in the spring, I was chatting with a friend about getting back to running. Six years ago we trained for and ran the annual fall half-marathon in Kansas City. Both of us were feeling a need to set a goal and start to prioritize our health and fitness. So, I decided to run the same race again. Knowing this type of thing is not easy for me to complete on my own, I recruited my mom to be my accountability partner and running mate on race day. May came around, and it was time to start training. I would be lying if I didn’t say that the majority of this time I was internally kicking and screaming against what I had agreed to do. I’ve never been a morning person, and waking up even earlier to exercise before work is not something I was excited about. And, starting the weekend with a long run — the runs that prepare a runner for the 13.1-mile distance — is not exactly fun. However, the sense of accomplishment and the feeling of a growing endurance in my legs and lungs is something I cannot quite describe — thrilling and pride come close, though.

Hereford Advantage This summer and early fall as the American Hereford Association (AHA) was wrapping up another fiscal year and as staff was preparing the 2016 Annual

Report, we began to assess where the Association and Hereford breed stand. Turn to Page 33 and you can read how the Hereford breed had another strong year. Hereford popularity is the highest it’s been in recent years, and it’s such an exciting time to be in the Hereford breed — however, it wasn’t a sprint to this goal, but a marathon. Talking to Hereford breeders and staff and learning how the breed got to this point, it’s evident that it was a long, difficult course filled with tough days and hard decisions. The path to the “Hereford Advantage,” we know today, took Hereford breeders making tough culling decisions and using the tools the Association worked hard to provide. I commend the breeders who decided many years ago on a common goal — to provide their customers with genetics that are accountable, predictable, profitable and sustainable. Unlike a marathon race, however, there isn’t a finish line for progress. As we start new fiscal year 2017, I look forward to seeing how the choices made today affect the outcome of the breed for decades to come. On Oct. 15, my mom finished her first halfmarathon, and I finished my third and first in six years. The race had moments of fun and moments of agony as we ran the 13.1mile hilly course. We hit our goal, but I don’t think we’ll stop there. HW Hereford.org

They Trust You The American Hereford Association (AHA) saw a great year in 2016, and this is due to the efforts of all members and their commitment to breeding cattle that are demanded by the commercial industry and are backed with information including pedigree, performance and integrity. As seedstock producers, it is our job to listen to our customers and to know our environment in order to produce the type of cattle that can make our customers profitable. Our latest commercial cow-calf survey that was done by MarketSense Inc. in 2014 prior to the Genetic Summit showed that Hereford cattle are the most adaptable to all environments. Because of this adaptability and the ability to add more heterosis in a crossbreeding program, the Hereford breed has a presence in all regions of the United States. This continues to position us well and gives us an opportunity to market well-documented cattle into all parts of the country.

New economically relevant traits Since 2003 the AHA has added four new traits to the genetic evaluation including Mature Cow Weight (MCW), Carcass Weight (CW), Teat Size (TEAT) and Udder Suspension (UDDR). In addition, we are currently reporting Dry Matter Intake (DMI), Sustained Cow Fertility (SCF) and Heifer Calving Rate (HCR) as research releases, and we will move them into the

/ November 2016

current genetic evaluation in the next few months. Also, during these past few years, we changed how we display the carcass traits from an ultrasound basis to a harvest basis because these are the traits of economic relevance. With the addition of these new traits, and more to be added, it becomes apparent that information overload can be a problem for customers. Not all cattle will be perfect for each trait. And, in many cases, more does not mean better. As we select for extremes in individual traits, we have antagonisms associated with other traits and that problem does not always mean these will be the most profitable for your customers. For example, if you are selling Hereford bulls to an Angus-based commercial cow herd, the operation probably will not need Hereford bulls in the top 5% of the breed for Maternal Milk (MM) but may need to look at teat and udder quality or even fertility. In addition, this same customer may not need to be looking at just marbling for end-product merit but may need to consider CW and ribeye area traits. With this possibility in mind, the AHA developed profit ($) Indexes in order for breeders to select genetics that can be profitable and can be positive for genetic change in areas of economic relevance without selecting for single traits. These $ Indexes reflect both the traits of interest and economic components associated with these traits. Over the next few months, the AHA will update the indexes with the new traits and different

economic components that are reflective for both the past and the future.

The role we play The MarketSense survey also shows that customers look to their seedstock supplier for genetic information. In other words, even though your customers may not ask for or seem to pay a tremendous amount of time researching and looking at expected progeny differences (EPDs) and $ Indexes, believe me, they still know they are important and they expect you to do that work for them. They trust you. According to the survey, both the seedstock producer and the breed association play a big role in the commercial industry when it comes to information. This means that you, as seedstock producers, need to collect and submit the data and we at the AHA need to continue to focus on building a strong genetic evaluation and to develop traits of value. It has been a great year, and as we start 2017, we see the agriculture industry getting strapped again on price, yet input costs do not seem to be moving down in a relative way. So, this challenge means that we need to put even more pressure on breeding decisions and using all the tools available to take the risk out of the cattle that you are selecting and selling. With these possible tougher times ahead, Hereford cattle can have an effect on the beef industry because of the strengths of the breed and the commitment the breeders have to producing the type of cattle demanded.

The American Hereford Association (AHA) Board of Directors met in Boise, Idaho, Aug. 24-25. The following are highlights of the meeting: The AHA Board heard reports from all committees and focused on how to continue to build programs for office efficiency, genetic improvement and marketing for all businesses at the Association. After reviewing projections for 2016’s year-end, the Board acknowledged that AHA will have another year of contributing to reserves and a profit after depreciation. After hearing from each committee, the Board approved a surplus budget for fiscal year 2017 of $96,538, after depreciation of more than $205,172.

Breed improvement Tad Sonstegard, Recombinetics, addressed the Board on precision breeding technology for the meat, livestock and milk industries. Shane Bedwell shared with the Board the progress that has been made with the new genetic evaluation software, BOLT, at Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI), and the Board discussed the importance of the extension component for the membership.

Selling a select set of show heifers and show steers from the leading Hereford breeders in Indiana.

There was also discussion on the work that Mike MacNeil, Delta Genetics, is doing with the profit ($) Indexes, including the additional traits and economic components. A motion was passed unanimously to charge a $250 fee for any animal DNA reconstruction. Bedwell presented the new Tissue Sample Unit (TSU) product that can be utilized by members to collect and submit DNA. Collecting DNA using TSUs can be done at any age of the animal.

Marketing and communications The third ad in the “He Wants it All” series will appear in publications this fall. This ad focuses on how Scott Ellinger, chef-owner of The Brass Rail Steakhouse and an adjoining meat market in O’Fallon, Mo., has incorporated Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) into his business. Staff reported they plan to work with Propaganda 3, a company based in Kansas City, Mo. The Board has asked that the staff organize a strategic planning meeting for the spring of 2017.

Hereford Hall of Fame and Hall of Merit The AHA Board selected Jack Turner, Oklahoma City, Okla., and Jimmy Powell, Ft. McKavett, Texas, as the newest members of the Hereford Hall of Fame. Art Handel, Rapid City, S.D., will be inducted to the Hereford Hall of Merit.

Member service The member service committee reported that MyHerd.org business is up nearly 50% and continues to enhance office efficiency. The staff is working on adding features to MyHerd including a DNA kit request. The Board collectively wanted to congratulate AHA staff members for a great fiscal year and to thank them for the work each has done for the membership. HW

Simplot NRSP Results Announced Below are the National Reference Sire Program (NRSP) results from 2015born calves at Simplot Livestock Co. in Grand View, Idaho. Simplot has been a part of the NRSP since 2011. Simplot’s breeding philosophy places a strong emphasis on Calving Ease (CE), while keeping down pressure on milk and mature cow weight but allowing for gain and end-product merit. Hereford genetics have allowed it to accomplish this goal. Likewise, Simplot uses Angus as a complement in its maternal cross while utilizing Charolais as its terminal breed to complete its rotational scheme. Simplot collects all measurements from birth to

harvest on test progeny, which includes a test period through its feed-intake unit. Also, Simplot collects a calving ease and calf vigor score on all calves born. I commend Simplot for recording these two critical measurements. Printed in Table 1 are expected progeny differences (EPDs) for sires used along with the phenotypes of progeny evaluated in test. The sires and subsequent progeny are listed in two separate tables. The first table lists the sires that were used on heifers (Jack Ranch Calves). In this list you will find two high-accuracy Angus bulls that were used by Simplot to make comparisons. It’s important to note that this is a randomized test where

Hereford sires are mated to predominantly black females and Angus sires are mated to baldies — thus accounting for most of the hybrid vigor effect on both sets of heifers. Table 2 lists the sires that were used on the mature cows (New R_D Ranch Calves). Data were not compared between the two ranches as the groups were managed in different environments at the respective ranches. Data presented in both tables are raw data that have not been adjusted for age of calf or age of dam. The EPD profiles of the sires used reflect progeny phenotypes from the Simplot test and are from the most recent Pan-American Cattle Evaluation (PACE) released on Oct. 15. HW

BQA free certification period announced The countdown has begun once again for beef and dairy producers to become Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) certified for free online through Nov. 13. As an added bonus, anyone who becomes certified during this period is eligible to win a prize package courtesy of Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica Inc. (BIVI) and the BQA program, funded in part by the beef checkoff. BIVI will pick up the $25-$50 online training fee for every person completing BQA training through Nov. 13.

The program covers production practices such as proper handling and administration of animal health products, reducing injection site blemishes, and low stress cattle handling principles.

Our meeting was of experiences being through a conference on the National Junior call and lasted about Hereford Association an hour. Now, I am not Brooke Hinojosa (NJHA) board started a big fan of multiple with working in the ring at the people on one phone call at time, Junior National Hereford Expo. but this was such an awesome I came to find out very quickly experience to me. When there are how exhausted feet will become. more than 12 people on one phone Although I already have some call, it can become very jumbled minor problems with my feet, it is and confusing. I was so impressed very important to have comfortable with all of the business we covered boots to wear. Board members in such a short amount of time. In end up walking miles in such a this hour conference call, we made short space. Little did I know that our finishing details on the Faces working the ring was such a small of Leadership conference. After part of being on the NJHA board. this call, I was sure that everything would come together to put on a very successful conference. Now that we had covered all the business about Faces of Leadership, it was finally time to head to West Texas as an official NJHA board director. I never realized how much Chairman of the event is put on strictly by Kelsey Stimpson, kscattle@mindspring.com the junior board. It was such an Vice chairman Jessica Middleswarth, amazing sight to see how much each jess.middleswarth@gmail.com individual contributes to make the Communications chair convention run so smoothly. The Kelsey Repenning, kelsey.repenning@gmail.com first day was our first real time to Leadership chair “kick back” as a board and to get Brooke Jensen, brookerjensen@outlook.com to know one another on a more Fundraising chair personal level rather than just in the Steven Green, gwherefords@yahoo.com meeting room.

I was a little Brooke Hinojosa, brookehinojosa10@gmail.com scared and nervous since I was Nathan Hopkins, nhopkins3632@att.net such a newbie.

/ November 2016

this is when I knew I had made the right choice to run for the junior board. I have always wondered how each and every board member gets the ability to impact so many peoples’ lives. It had finally dawned on me — this is when. The board has been very busy with meetings and conference calls as well as trips. I was given the opportunity to visit California for my first time through the NJHA. I would not trade this experience for anything. Part of the board made the trek to California for The Harvest II, a fundraiser for Hereford youth. This was, without a doubt, a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We made the best of Cali as we toured some of the best wine country and history it had to offer. It was such an amazing opportunity to see $2 million generated for the youth involved in the Hereford industry. I was very sad when we had to leave such beautiful country and to come back to reality with life. Our most recent endeavor was our NJHA board orientation. This was once again an amazing opportunity to see what the adult board does as well as what happens behind the scenes of such a wonderful industry. We finished the weekend with touring and gathering a little more information on how everything is produced within the American Hereford Association, as well as one last meeting. Meetings had never been quite my thing, but now that I have encountered so many opportunities through being elected onto the NJHA board, they have become part of my life. I am so thankful to be serving you on the NJHA board and truly look forward to the next three years full of meetings, opportunities and oncein-a-lifetime experiences. HW

It is a tradition that during the NHW Annual Meeting hosted in Kansas City, Mo., members of NHW say goodbye to the retiring board members and welcome the new board members. With the new board members, we also have new leadership to the NHW. Maddee Moore, 2015 NHW president, presented the gavel to president-elect Jill Folkman during the annual meeting on Saturday, Oct. 29. The new board members serving the NHW for the next four years are Amy Taylor, Northeast; Sharon King, Southeast; and Erin Lockhart, Southwest. Retiring board members are Alise Nolan, Gilmer, Texas; Beth Blinson, Buies Creek, N.C.; and Carol Priefert, St. Joseph, Mich. We would like to thank them for their years of service to the NHW. When asked about her time on the board, past president Carol

Priefert stated, “Serving as a NHW board member the past four years, I have had the privilege of carrying on the traditions of promoting the Hereford breed and beef industry, and youth that past generations of Hereford women started over 60 years ago.” In the past six decades, it has been a tradition for the NHW to annually award more than $10,000 in scholarships, contest recognition and awards as well as leading the National Hereford Queen program. NHW continues to do fundraising to support these programs. A new fundraiser is the Lot Sale Supporter Program (LSSP), which has been officially launched this summer. An overview of this is as follows: Every sale that contains Hereford cattle and/or is sponsored by a Hereford association, ranch or family, is eligible to sign up for and participate in this program. NHW will promote this program through print and online advertisement and personal outreach. To participate, sale management and a member of the NHW Board of Directors will set a meeting to discuss the participant’s level. Participation in the NHW LSSP is a pledge between the participant and the NHW. Participants have

the option for three pledge amounts: 2, 5 and 10% of the sale amount for the designated lot. Funds will be sent directly to the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) and will be designated for the dedicated NHW scholarship for the given year. This pledge amount will be tax deductible as a 501(c)3 donation to HYFA. Retired board member Beth Blinson says, “I have had the pleasure of serving on the NHW board the last four years, three of those years as its treasurer. The NHW board works hard all year to fund approximately $8,000 in annual scholarships for our junior Hereford enthusiasts. Serving on the NHW board allowed me to give back to a group that has been there for my girls.” NHW unveiled its new logo at the Junior National Hereford Expo this past July in Madison, Wis. The logo features a specific icon for various aspects of the organization. Be on the lookout for this fresh new logo on all NHW sponsored items. The National Hereford Queen program is in its 42nd year, and we thank the young ladies who ran for National Hereford Queen. The National Hereford Queen is there not only to present awards but also to promote the Hereford breed, beef industry and agriculture. When you see the National Hereford Queen, please take time to thank her for promoting the beef industry. HW

Third Generation Leader

ome may never be so fortunate to realize their lifelong career at the age of 2, but for as long as he could remember, Idaho Hereford breeder Sam Shaw knew he wanted to continue the legacy his father and grandfather had set before him — raising Hereford cattle and giving back to the breed. Sam is the third generation of Shaws to not only be involved in the purebred Hereford industry but to serve as president of the American Hereford Association (AHA). “This very fact is an indication of what the Hereford breed has done for our family,” Sam says. “It’s important for us to give back because this breed has given us a lot of opportunity.”

The ranch

2016 AHA President Sam Shaw continues a family legacy by leading the Association.

/ November 2016

The Shaw family’s Hereford herd began in 1946 when Sam’s grandpa, Tom, was given a belated graduation gift from a neighbor — a Hereford heifer. In 1959 Tom and his wife, Mary, purchased a piece of land near Caldwell, Idaho, which is where the family resides today. Tom and Mary’s son, Greg, officially joined the family business in 1969, and he and his wife, Cleo, formed Shaw Cattle Co. Their son, Sam, made the decision as a young boy that he wanted to work on the ranch alongside his family. “By the time I was 2 or 3 years old, I knew this is what I wanted to do. Of course I don’t remember being that young,” Sam laughs, “but my parents comment on how I always wanted to go with dad and be with him on the ranch.” As Sam grew up, he continued to enjoy being around cattle and became involved in the junior horned Hereford program. Though Sam’s mind was made up to join the family business, Greg and Cleo told Sam after high school graduation he had to attend college or join the military before he would be allowed to come back to the ranch. “So that’s really the only reason I went to the University of Idaho,” Sam says. “I would have rather been home working cattle because it’s always been my passion. But I’m glad I went, even though I spent a lot of time driving back and forth.” Today, the ranch maintains more than 1,500 registered cows encompassing Hereford, Angus and Red Angus breeds. Though the operation has grown, Shaw Cattle Co. remains customer-service driven — a focus started by

Hereford.org

Sam’s grandpa. “We have customers that have bought bulls from us for three or four generations,” Sam says. “Some people we sell to aren’t just customers anymore, they are more like our family and friends. They are our customers, but really it’s more of a relationship. That’s what sets us apart — our family selling bulls that will help other families be profitable.” Shaw Cattle Co. calves in spring and fall to expand its market and cater to its customers by offering bulls in two age groups. Each February the ranch markets 450 bulls at a sale hosted on the ranch. The ranch is located on 3,000 irrigated acres, where the Shaws own 1,500 acres and lease the other half in the area. Sam says they are fortunate to have mild winters, and, thanks to irrigation, they are able to economically keep their females in good condition. “The expensive part is growing that grass,” Sam says. “Everything is irrigated because precipitation averages only 10-12 inches a year. We have three big reservoirs that collect snow pack from mountains that irrigate the valley. Without the water we would have nothing. But with the water we have lots.” Sam recognizes that their environment differs from that of their customers as the majority run cattle on high desert ground. Knowing this, Sam says they run cows as tough as possible. “Our bulls have worked for our customers for the past 60 years, and we can assure them of this because the guesswork is already done.”

The right cattle Sam says with each breeding decision, Shaw Cattle Co.’s mission is to produce cattle that will make its customers money and cattle that will go out and work in a tough environment. “Structural soundness is a huge deal, along with udder quality and temperament,” Sam says. Sam continues the Shaw family’s legacy of collecting data and building performance behind the cattle they raise and sell. “We try to collect every piece of information we can from the animals — not only for us but for our customers,” he says. “Every one of them wants something a little different so we try to provide them with what they need. Regardless of their emphasis, our cattle are data and performance driven.” Sam says it’s his responsibility as a seedstock producer to ensure they produce and sell quality cattle. “It’s our job to make sure the cattle are right when we market them,” he says. “We make sure there are no genetic or structural problems and that all bulls pass a semen and fertility test. Not all our bulls will have the same expected progeny differences (EPDs) because our customers want different things, but the main

part is for us to make sure they are a sound, quality product. My grandfather would always say, ‘Never chase an extreme. The fad will come and go, but if you are somewhere in the middle you’ll hit twice instead of being on one end or the other.’” Shaw Cattle Co. genotypes all replacement females and bulls it sells. “We try to use proven genetics that keep us where we want to be,” Sam says.

A family business Shaw Cattle Co. is truly a family business. Sam works daily with his father, mother and brother, Tucker, who returned to the ranch with his family in 2003. Sam says the key to their success is simple — communication. “One thing I’ve learned is if everyone is talking, days go by smooth,” he says. “My brother is active in the Idaho Cattlemen’s Association so he’s gone a lot, and I’ve been gone a lot, so we’ve had to even ramp up communication lately to make sure things are getting done.” Though each Shaw is involved in all aspects of ranch decisions, Sam says they have found niches and roles to fill. Sam focuses on mating decisions and artificial insemination (AI) schedules. Tucker’s focus is on the land and irrigation plans. “When Tucker moved back to Idaho from an insurance job in North Dakota, he brought with him business expertise,” Sam says. “That’s when we decided to run this more like a business with us having more at stake and more to lose.” Both brothers help market cattle, but Sam says his dad still contributes in this area because of the many relationships he’s formed with customers over the years. continued on page 30...

“We’re where we want to be,” He chuckles thinking back Sam says. “We’ve grown from to those moments. “The phone annually selling 100 bulls to rang all the time,” he says. 450 thanks to great help and “I couldn’t talk to any of my great employees and we still friends and my Mom couldn’t have time to do family things.” talk to any of her friends Sam and his wife, Janel, because dad was on the phone have three young daughters, so much. So mom and I put our and Tucker and his wife, Angie, own phone line in the house have five children. “The kids and only gave the number to seem to enjoy the ranch,” Sam our friends. When dad was on Sam Shaw is pictured with grandparents Mary and Tom says. “We don’t know which one Shaw who began the family’s Hereford herd in 1946. the Board the Hereford breed will come back, but what we do was in a different place.” every day is for our kids and the next generation.” Sam attributes the breed’s successes today to past Board members and breeders who struggled through Time on the Board change to improve their future. “It’s because of guys When Sam took the helm as American Hereford like my dad that Hereford breeders are reaping the Association (AHA) president last year, he followed the benefits of today,” Sam says, noting the introduction path of service to the Hereford breed set before him by of programs like Whole Herd Total Performance his grandpa and dad. Sam was also continuing a path Records (TPR™). “We had a great year this year but was it because of he set for himself which began with him serving on the my leadership? No, it was the leadership of the last 20 National Junior Hereford Association board from 1995 years that put us in that direction. I hope in 10-20 years to 1998, the year he filled the role of president. people will look back and say those guys sure got us in Thinking over his tenure on the Board Sam says, the right direction. I hope what we did this year will “I couldn’t have been on the Board at a better time help breeders in 20 years.” because of the upward trend in Hereford popularity,” Sam notes that he and fellow Board members he says. “Registrations have gone up every year and this worked with staff to increase the frequency of genetic year each AHA entity was profitable.” evaluations from two to 10 runs per year. He also is Sam was just out of college and living at home when proud of the staff brought on in the past few years, Greg was AHA president. He remembers his father’s who work with the Board to keep the AHA in the right tenure in contrast to his own. “When he was on the direction. “I hope we will see these decisions as benefits board, the trend wasn’t as good,” he says. “It was after in the years to come,” he says. the merger of the horned and polled associations, and they were trying to save the breed.”

Q&A with AHA President Sam Shaw Q: What do you consider to be the five highlights of fiscal year 2016?

• Registrations are the highest they have been since 2000. This year alone we saw a 4% increase in registrations.

• Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) tonnage sold is 3 million lb.

• We have a tremendous staff in place from top to bottom

higher this year. and the American Hereford Association (AHA) continues to hire valuable people.

• The bull sale average remained strong and number of bulls sold was up 10%. This is an indication that times are good and there is more of a demand for Hereford genetics.

• Personally, a highlight this year for me was being able to travel and meet other Hereford breeders. It has been such a rewarding year.

/ November 2016

Q: What do we need to work on as a breed? A: We have to continue to improve Hereford cattle. We have a tremendous breed with many strengths, but we should continue to work on our weaknesses. We’ve made incredible progress and got rid of some of our weaknesses, but we have to continue making our breed better and culling problems out — we cannot go backwards. Hereford.org

AHA Vice President Terri Barber says working with Sam has been one of her most memorable and enjoyable leadership opportunties to date. “His work ethic, dedication to selflessly serve the Hereford breed and enthusiasm for success have all made him a true role model with big footsteps to follow,” she says. “I have appreciated his humble and genuine personality, which has made serving on the board even more enlightening for all.”

Challenges and lessons While serving on the Board, Sam says a valuable lesson he learned is that each breeder in each region is different. “Realizing the need to understand the breed from another perspective was vital.” And, he says, diversity is what keeps Hereford breeders in business. “If we all did the same thing there would only be half the breeders there are. We have to be diversified and just a little different to market our stock.” The greatest challenge this year, however, was being apart from the family business. “My family made it happen,” he says. “I had to be gone a lot, and work still needed to get done. I was glad to go out and meet so many Hereford breeders, but it was challenging being away from my responsibilities.” Sam is thankful for a family that lit a fire in him for ranching and one that still supports him. “My grandpa and dad gave me the opportunity to follow my dream and my passion,” he says. “I still look up to my dad every day. I still make a lot of decisions but there’s not one big decision I make that I don’t run by him first. I’m so glad he’s as active today as he was 20 years ago. I enjoy my job, but I enjoy working with my dad.”

AHA President Sam Shaw says Hereford breeders must continue to make choices that will move the breed forward.

Future of the breed As Sam wrapped up his tenure on the Hereford Board of Directors on Oct. 29, he encourages breeders to look beyond their own operations and to consider the future of Hereford cattle as a whole. “The AHA staff and Association represent a wide variety of members,” he says. “We all need the Association to do things for us, but we have to look at the big picture and figure out what is viable for the whole membership. I truly believe the AHA’s job is to provide us tools to market our cattle. And that’s why we pay dues to a membership organization.” Sam says it’s rewarding to leave the Board knowing the Association has strong leadership in place. He also encourages breeders to continue to improve their herds: “Continue to select the genetics that will advance the Hereford breed.” HW

Q: What are some of your favorite memories from your time on the Board? A: By far it has been meeting breeders, traveling and seeing Hereford cattle in different parts of the country. Q: How do we continue to gain commercial market share? A: I think we as seedstock producers have to continue to produce the products that will make the beef cattle industry better. We’re in an industry that is producing red meat and it’s important for us to create a quality product that families will want to purchase or give a premium for. This is where CHB comes in — when consumers see our brand we want them to know they will have a good eating experience with their purchase. The consumer is the end goal, and the genetics we are selling in turn produce the beef that feeds consumers. Q: When you were elected to the Board, what were your goals for the Association? How has that changed? A: My goal was to make the breed better and to continue to improve the Hereford breed by giving Hereford.org

members the tools they need to help market cattle the way they want to. Today, I still think that should be the No. 1 goal of the Association. Yes, we should continue to do things like expand CHB, and improve the efficiency of record keeping and data collection —those are the little things, but one big goal is tools that make our breed better. Q: Considering the challenges facing the Board and the beef industry in general, what do you think Hereford breeders need to address? A: It all goes back to the end product and asking, what are we trying to do with the Hereford breed? For the Association, what’s going to drive the breed is what our bulls produce for the commercial sector. Our national cow herd is predominately black, and we need to focus on what those Hereford-influenced steers and heifers are going to do down the road. Our branded program, CHB, will help us create a greater market for our product. HW

2016 American Hereford Association Annual Report

Proven

Advantage V

erifying the continued resurgence of the Hereford breed within the commercial industry, fiscal year (FY) 2016 has been another tremendous time of growth for the American Hereford Association (AHA). This year the Association documented the Hereford advantage, recording increases in registrations, cow inventories and memberships, all while Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) LLC witnessed another year of growth. As the commercial industry continues to put pressure on genetics that are accountable, predictable, profitable and sustainable, the Hereford breed continues to grow market share. The commercial producer “Wants it All,” and Hereford breeders have become dedicated to data collection and endorsing all tools available to produce reliable genetics. Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) is the cornerstone to identify Hereford genetics, and during FY16 the AHA moved to increase the number of genetic evaluation runs from two to 10 runs per year. This change gives breeders and their customers the most up-to-date information available. In addition, the AHA has seen a tremendous growth in the area of genomics with more than 28,000 Hereford animals genotyped. CHB LLC saw another nice increase in total lb. sold. To support the supply for the growing demand of CHB, the AHA developed CHB Hereford Advantage, a feeder calf program which allows breeders and their customers a potential market for Hereford-influenced feeder calves sired by bulls with the genetics supported by feedlots and packers. AHA staff continues to work hard to develop programs that add value to cattle through performance programs, registration programs, fingertip access to pedigree and performance information, seedstock marketing, commercial marketing and research activities while keeping a keen eye on office efficiencies and value. During the survey of commercial cow-calf producers in 2014, it was clear those producers count heavily on their seedstock suppliers to produce data-driven, reliable cattle that make them profitable. As seedstock producers, it is your job to use the tools available to make breeding and selection decisions to make your customers profitable. And, it is the AHA’s responsibility to continue building the tools you need. — Jack Ward, AHA executive vice president

Progressing

Predictable Performance T

he American Hereford Association (AHA) continues to provide its members with programs and services to document the Hereford advantage. This dedication to genetic improvement has proved Herefords are: Accountable. Predictable. Profitable. Sustainable. The advancement and accuracy of genetic prediction for breeding Hereford cattle is a very powerful tool,” says AHA Board Member Kevin Schultz, Haviland, Kan. “The AHA will continue to research and accurately provide its members these cutting-edge tools to help meet and exceed the demands of the commercial industry. The AHA staff is a talented, industry-respected team of men and women that are the basis for the integrity and success of these programs.”

Genetic evaluation The AHA is advancing genetic improvement through more frequent genetic evaluations. Traditionally, the Pan-American Cattle Evaluation (PACE) program, which provides expected progeny differences (EPDs) derived from pedigree, phenotype and genomic information, is run twice per year. The AHA has moved to 10 runs per year (July and November will be the only two months the AHA will not have updated evaluations), allowing breeders to make breeding decisions with the most current information.

New economically relevant traits The AHA continues to provide more tools for genetic selection to Hereford breeders and commercial cattlemen. New to genetic evaluations in fiscal year (FY) 2016 are the Carcass Weight (CW), Dry Matter Intake (DMI), Heifer Calving Rate (HCR) and Sustained Cow Fertility (SCF) EPDs. “As we continue to prove the Hereford advantage, these new EPDs will help us find cattle that are profitable,” says Shane Bedwell, AHA director of breed improvement. “Anytime we can measure differences in the population for economically relevant traits, we begin to find the animals that truly position Herefords for success and profit.

Carcass Weight Pounds of product continue to drive the bottom-line for end-product merit. Thanks to real carcass data collected through the National Reference Sire Program (NRSP) and breeder participation, the Hereford breed has made advances in the predictability of the new trait CW.

Dry Matter Intake The Hereford breed has the advantage in efficiency, and over the course of the past few years, individual feed intake phenotypes have been collected through both the AHA sire test programs and breeders’ testing efforts. This gathering of information has allowed the AHA to produce a new trait for DMI.

Heifer Calving Rate and Sustained Cow Fertility Pounds of calf produced per cow exposed, which is fertility, still drives profit for the commercial cowcalf producer. Through the efforts of Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™), the Association has developed two new traits, HCR and SCF, to identify cattle that excel for fertility and longevity.

Hereford Advantage program

Profit ($) Indexes like Baldie Maternal Index (BMI$) for female retention has allowed the Hereford’s continued growth in the commercial sector. 2 2016 AHA Annual Report

FY 2016 brought with it the Hereford Advantage program, which allows commercial breeders to identify genetically backed, high-quality Hereford and Herefordinfluenced feeder cattle and to build premiums in the cattle that meet the threshold. In order to qualify, the Hereford bull battery must rank in the top 20% of the Certified Hereford Beef Index (CHB$). Because single-trait selection has a negative effect on the development of the breed, the focus of this program is put on the CHB$ profit index. Cattle that qualify for this program should excel both in gain and end-product merit.

Expanding DNA In 2016 the Association expanded the avenues available for DNA collection. Hereford breeders may now submit DNA samples using blood cards and Tissue Sampling Units (TSU) for DNA testing. Blood cards and tissue samples offer advantages in convenience and flexibility since there is no age restriction on taking a sample, unlike hair samples. â€œBreeders can take a blood or tissue sample when it is most fitting for them, whether that be when they tag, brand or vaccinate,â€? Bedwell says. These methods will also allow calves to be registered more accurately. Producers may use DNA testing to parentage-verify an animal before registering when the sire of the animal is in question, to test for genetic abnormalities or to get a set of genomic-enhanced EPDs (GE-EPDs).

Since the AHA transitioned its DNA testing to GeneSeekÂŽ in 2012, the Association has developed more than 28,000 genotypes that contribute to the genetic evaluation. In addition, more than 3,200 animals have been tested for the horned/polled gene.

Herefords

predictable and profitable for commercial producers Hereford cattle continue to excel within the commercial industry. The CHB$ terminal sire index has seen a 50% improvement and the Baldie Maternal Index (BMI$) for female retention has improved 20% from 2005 to 2015. These profit indexes provide multi-trait index selection tools, allowing for continued growth in the commercial sector. These impressive advances are possible because of AHA breeder commitment to better cattle and genetics. Because of these developments, the Hereford breed has witnessed a 54% increase in domestic semen sales from 2011 to 2015 and a 217% increase in domestic semen sales from 2005 to 2015.

National Reference Sire Program Unmatched in the beef industry, the NRSP is in its 17th year and has tested more than 320 bulls since its inception in 1999. This robust test program allows Hereford to stand alone in the area of breed improvement. Because of the commitment of AHA breeders participating in the program, young sires have been identified and proved for all traits of economic relevance.

Focusing on

Efficiency T

he member service efforts of the American Hereford Association (AHA) continue to focus on ways to make the Association and its members more efficient in recording and receiving information while continuing to control the costs associated with delivering those services. The primary strategy for delivering on those goals continues to be centered on the additional development of the MyHerd.org online registry system and increasing its accessibility to and utilization by AHA members. The official launch of the MyHerd system in 2014 and increased member adoption of the system since that time have allowed the AHA customer service department to continue delivering timely performance in processing members’ work submitted outside the MyHerd system while also handling an increased number of customer service phone calls. The introduction of MyHerd permits AHA to deliver information more efficiently to members through an electronic format rather than the traditional method of printing and mailing out reports, monthly statements and other notices. AHA Board Member Dave Bielema, Ada, Mich., says, “MyHerd allows members receive this information more quickly, and the cost of postage is eliminated.” While MyHerd continues to be the Association’s focus for members submitting information electronically, it isn’t the only option available. AHA has a long-standing policy of accepting animal information via compatible herdmanagement software packages.

Electronic registrations received from AHA members 2015: 69%

2016: 74%

Goal 80%

4 2016 AHA Annual Report

“We know that there isn’t a single system that meets every member’s needs with regards to managing and submitting information to the AHA, so we feel it is important for members to have options so they can find a system that best fits their individual needs,” says Stacy Sanders, AHA director of records department.

MyHerd’s new features The AHA introduced new MyHerd features in 2016 in answer to member requests. First was the introduction of “Electronic Certificate Storage,” where MyHerd users have the option to store registration certificates electronically. This feature eliminates paper shuffle and possible mailing errors while increasing the ease and efficiency of registrations and transfers. A hard-copy registration certificate can be released from storage at any time as long as the registration and transfer fees have been paid. Most recent to MyHerd is a feature that allows members to electronically request DNA tests, track the status of existing requests and access the results of completed tests. This feature provides members the ability to create DNA test requests via MyHerd at any time, day or night, ensuring tests are completed and results are in their hands as fast as possible. In addition, AHA staff continued to increase member utilization of MyHerd over the past year primarily through online webinars. Association staff hosted more than 50 webinars for more than 500 participants, and while these have proved useful, interest has gradually fallen off. Therefore, staff developed a series of online tutorials for various functions of MyHerd. Having these tutorials available to new and existing users of MyHerd allows members to focus on specific tasks they want to perform in MyHerd. Tutorials are available 24/7, so users do not have to wait on a webinar to learn more about a topic of interest. The results of the continued development of MyHerd and focus on increasing utilization by members were observed with a significant increase in registrations submitted electronically during fiscal year 2016. AHA’s goal is to receive 80% of registrations electronically, and this past year a rate of 74% was realized, which was an increase from 69% in the prior year. Overall, MyHerd accounted for more than $2.5 million in payments from members and more than $1.5 million in work processed. “I would like to thank the breeders who helped during the trial phases of the MyHerd development,” Bielema says. “This is not our service endpoint, however. We are continually trying to improve customer service and look forward to more improvements in the future.”

Branding

the Advantage T

he AHA works to share with the industry all that the Association and Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) has to offer cattlemen and consumers through digital and print media. In May, the marketing and communications department welcomed team members Kaylen Baker and Katy Holdener, both agricultural communications graduates from Oklahoma State University. The marketing team utilizes Hereford e-News, Sales Digest and the Hereford.org media center to distribute the latest Hereford information to Hereford breeders, enthusiasts and media contacts across the country. The AHA and CHB LLC social media platforms have played an important part in sharing the Hereford message. In fiscal year 2016, the AHA Facebook platform recorded an 8% growth in reach gaining 3,201 new ‘likes,’ and the CHB Facebook page saw a 45% growth, gaining 2,811 new ‘likes.’ Both AHA and CHB are also active on Instagram and Twitter. In FY15, the AHA Board approved the “They Want It All” ad series and in FY16, three “He Wants It All” ads were placed in various media outlets. These ads highlight key industry segments, including the end user — the consumer. The focus of each ad is industry relevance and the positive influence of Hereford genetics in a complex industry that demands efficiency, accountability, predictability, profitability and sustainability. The print ads have digital ads and videos to support and to complement the message. The ads and videos are posted at Hereford.org/TheyWantItAll.

Profitable

Expansion The demand for Hereford genetics continues to be strong as Hereford breeders experienced consistent sale prices and a robust demand for Hereford genetics. AHA field representatives reported 200 production sales during the fiscal year. Bull sales averaged $5,839 and females averaged $4,863. Embryos averaged $377 and flushes averaged $6,115. Hereford breeders moved 606 more bulls through sales than the previous year, selling a total 6,954 Hereford bulls in FY16. Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI) and the Hereford World are key partners for producers in marketing Hereford genetics. The Hereford World included 1,090 pages of advertising and 17 ride-along catalogs, which records a 41-page increase and a 2-catalog increase in advertising. Hereford World advertising has expanded outside U.S. borders, and included advertisements for Hereford genetics from Denmark, Australia, Canada and Uruguay. The Hereford World is also reaching a broader audience. The magazine currently boasts 43 foreign subscribers including 31 from Canada, four from Australia, three from Uruguay, two from Mexico and one from each Argentina, Denmark and Finland. Beyond the magazine, Creative Services produced various marketing pieces for Hereford breeders including catalogs, advertisements, posters, banner ads and logos.

Certified Hereford Beef:

Building the Brand T

he Certified Hereford Beef (CHB®) brand was created more than 20 years ago to market the Hereford breed’s superior genetics and performance. The CHB brand continues to meet the needs of consumers and to expand market share. The science-based specifications of the program establish quality and consistency that earn and maintain consumer trust through brand integrity. The brand logo, and the premium image it represents, has become synonymous with superior quality. The goal of CHB LLC is to continue the legacy of tender, juicy and great-tasting beef. Innovation and progression are required to excel in a constantly changing beef industry. CHB LLC has undergone significant transformation over fiscal year (FY) 2016, from new management and staff to a strengthened focus on how to ultimately grow the program. By collectively focusing efforts in the same direction, CHB has created consumer awareness and driven demand for Hereford-influenced cattle. CHB increased a solid 3.6 million lb. sold over last year, which translates into a 7.1% growth.

Concentrating on breed and brand education between producers and consumers has helped bridge the knowledge gap in both industries. Communicating CHB’s value and relevance has become increasingly important as the brand continues to grow. CHB LLC has been directly involved in producer and consumer events such as food shows and new retail openings. The contribution from both parties has made a significant effect on the brand.

A focused approach Every pound of CHB product sold drives the brand forward. A licensed retailer or restaurant committed to using the brand logo or name has the largest effect on growth. This type of partnership helps further promote and create brand awareness of the program. CHB has experienced significant growth from within these partnerships in both retail and foodservice. By intensifying customer service with a targeted approach from new regional brand managers, CHB is gaining traction through understanding current demographics, putting plans in place to develop the market, identifying areas to educate and properly promoting the brand through media and marketing. Being fully engaged and present with customers, CHB LLC can remain in tune with the changing needs of the industry and can continue to provide exceptional service. Innovation is also vital to the growth of a brand. CHB LLC is committed to open-ended creativity in the marketing and new product arenas. The addition of two new marketing and communications coordinators has set the stage for additional engagements through all marketing and media channels and provided the opportunity to release new and updated educational materials to licensed partners. Product innovation is an ongoing project with the intent to identify items to enhance the product offerings under the CHB brand to appeal to all target audiences. “Certified Hereford Beef has a solid foundation from which we can grow,” says Amari Manning, CHB chief operating officer. “Our targeted and focused approach on strengthening and increasing pounds sold through current customers, and identifying opportunities with future partners, is becoming more streamlined and efficient with the leadership of Mick Welch and the introduction of Ron Santoro and Sarah Samuels to the team. We are all passionate about the program and focused in the same direction to provide the best tools and exceptional service to our partners. We are motivated by the opportunity the brand has in the market and are excited to make a difference and impact in the market.”

Program growth Foodservice is leading the charge with the most growth. This segment of the industry has grown by 3.5 million lb., a 22% growth during FY16. This is due to new business and a refocused effort on increasing product offerings through current distribution channels. Currently, CHB can be found in 40 states with both foodservice and retail partners. As the demand for CHB continues to steadily grow, the need for high-quality, performing Hereford cattle has increased. A total of 370,511 cattle were identified through CHB licensed packing facilities as eligible for the program from a live specification standpoint, which is an increase of 34,364 head, or 10.2 %, during 2016.

“I’m very excited about the direction CHB is going,” says Jim Mickelson, CHB Board president. “We are seeing positive growth, and the energy Amari brings to CHB is really moving us forward.” The Certified Hereford Beef brand offers a unique and differentiated marketing program for CHB’s licensed partners to compete and to excel in a competitive marketplace. CHB LLC is proud of the Hereford breed’s rich heritage and the uncompromising dedication to quality from Hereford cattlemen. These elements allow CHB LLC to bring the legacy of naturally great tasting beef to its customers. They are the reasons why CHB is “Excellence Built by Tradition.”

1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations The American Hereford Association (AHA) is a notfor-profit association that 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 on behalf of Certified Hereford Beef. Members and subscribers of AHA are primarily owners and breeders of Hereford cattle. The members and subscribers are located world-wide; however the largest concentration is within the United States. Hereford Publications, Inc. (HPI) provides publication services to Hereford cattle ranches and publishes a magazine periodically. The AHA is the sole member of Certified Hereford Beef, LLC (CHB®). CHB is a not-for-profit association. 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 27, 2000. Prior to that date, CHB’s activities were performed and accounted for within the Association. American Beef Records Association (ABRA) is a not-for-profit association that is wholly owned by the AHA. ABRA provides computer consultation in herd planning and management, breeding services and marketing for commercial livestock of various breeds. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AHA and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, HPI, CHB and ABRA. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Collectively, the consolidation of AHA, HPI, CHB, and ABRA are hereafter referred to as the Association. Consolidated Financial Statement Presentation The Association classifies its information regarding net assets and revenues, expenses, gains, and losses based on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets of the Association and changes therein are classified and report as follows: • Unrestricted Net Assets: Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed stipulations. • Temporarily Restricted Net Assets: Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that may or will be met, by actions of the Association and/or the passage of time. When a restriction expires, 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: Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained permanently by the Association. The Association doesn’t have any permanently restricted net assets. Basis of Accounting The accrual method of accounting is used, which recognizes income in the period earned and expenses in the period incurred. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Association considers all money market investments and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Investments amounting to $414,076 and $222,824 were considered to be cash equivalents at August 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Accounts Receivable Receivables are presented at face value, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts and consist of amounts billed for magazine advertising, subscriptions and member services, but not received by year-end. The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through provisions charged against income and is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated bad debts based on historical experience. The Association’s receivables are considered past due based upon contractual terms and are automatically charged off after three years. 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. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on the first-in, first-out method. Investments The Association’s investment portfolio is subject to the investment policy set forth by the Board of Directors. Investments are comprised of debt and equity 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, 2016 and 2015. 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 and are reported in the consolidated statement of activities as increases or decreases in net assets. Fair Value Measurement The accounting standards define a fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Association determines the fair value of investments using three broad levels of input as defined by related accounting standards. Level 1: Observable inputs – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2: Observable inputs – other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs – includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used during the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015.

2016 AHA Annual Report 11

Equity Securities: Equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Fixed Income Securities: Corporate, government, and municipal bonds and fixed income securities are generally valued by a computerized pricing service or, for less actively traded issues, by utilizing a yield-based matrix system to arrive at an estimated market value. Exchange Traded Funds: These assets are valued at the net asset value reported on the active market on which the securities are traded. The valuation occurs throughout the day based on the market value of the underlying securities as well as the market supply and demand for the particular exchange traded fund. Mutual Funds: Each investor in the mutual fund will typically receive units of participation in the mutual fund. These units are valued daily, based on the underlying securities owned by the mutual fund, which are usually publicly traded debt or equity securities. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. The estimated useful life of assets ranges from 3 to 30 years for financial statement purposes. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of activity for the period. The Association capitalizes all assets, major replacements, and betterments with a useful life greater than one year and cost in excess of $1,000. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred. Long-lived assets to be held and used are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in the circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be disposed of by sales are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. Compensated Absences Employees are entitled to one week of paid time off each year. Unused paid time off cannot be carried over from one year to the next and is not paid out upon termination. Accordingly, no liability for accrued paid time off has been recorded. The Association’s policy is to recognize the costs of compensated absences when actually used by employees. 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. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. The amount expensed during the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was $282,149 and $250,582, respectively. Income Taxes The Association follows the provisions of an accounting standard for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Association believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the consolidated financial statements. The Association files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, the State of Missouri jurisdiction, and U.S. city jurisdictions. Income tax returns of the Association are subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities generally for three years after they were filed. The AHA, ABRA, and CHB are exempt from Federal income tax under section 501(c)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code, and therefore have made no provision for federal or state income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. They are, however, subject to income taxes on any net income from unrelated business activities. The Association, ABRA, and CHB have been classified by the Internal Revenue Service as organizations that are not private foundations under Section 509(a)(2). HPI is a taxable entity and is, therefore, subject to federal income 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, 2016 and 2015, 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. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, and the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information The Association paid cash during the year for interest in the amount of $2,275 and $3,137 for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Reclassifications Certain amounts in the prior year comparative information have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to presentation in the current year consolidated financial statements. Subsequent Events The Association has evaluated subsequent events through October 10, 2016, the date which the consolidated financial statements were available for issue.

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 carryforward, resulting in deferred tax assets. 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. The components of the deferred tax assets are as follows at: Deferred Tax Assets Net operating loss carryforwards Less: Valuation Allowance Total Deferred Tax Assets

8 — Collections of Artwork The Association has a collection of artwork, appraised at approximately $639,200 at August 31, 2016 and 2015, that is on public display at the Association’s headquarters. The most recent appraisal is as of April 2015 for new pieces added in 2015 and as of August 2011 for the rest of the collection. 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 are charged to expenses in the period when purchased. There were no pieces added to the collection during the year ended August 31, 2016, and there were four pieces added to the collection during the year ended August 31, 2015. There were no pieces disposed of during the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015. The Association insures these collections with a policy that has a face value consistent with the appraised values. 9 — Concentration of Credit Risk The Association maintains cash accounts that are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the insured limits of the FDIC. The Association’s bank balances may exceed this limit from time to time. 10 — Retirement Plan The Association provides eligible employees with a 401(k) Qualified Retirement plan. The Association also established a profit sharing plan for all eligible employees. The plan provides for employer and employee contributions based upon a percentage of annual compensation. Employer contributions for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, were $90,333 and $95,862, respectively. 11 — Subsquent Events The City of Kansas City, Missouri has announced that, in their efforts to continue the revitalization of the downtown Kansas City area, plans have been approved to build a new hotel and convention center to be built on the block of property that includes the current location of the Association’s headquarters. This new hotel would be managed by Hyatt Hotels and will be funded mostly by private investors with some support from the City. The Association’s Board of Directors has taken steps to protect the interests of the Association and its membership. The current headquarters building has served the Association for many years and could continue to do so for the foreseeable future; however the Association also recognizes the importance of the project to the City, and the inevitability of their ultimate decision. The Board has formed a building committee and is working with

Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Directors/American Hereford Association/Kansas City, Mo.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of American Hereford Association, a nonprofit organization, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Association), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of August 31, 2016 and 2015; and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended; and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Association’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Association’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Association as of August 31, 2016 and 2015, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The accompanying consolidating information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements or to the consolidated financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole. — Respectfully submitted, K. Coe Isom, LLP, October 10, 2016 Pursuant to its bylaws, AHA submits the above financial information for its members as of the close of the fiscal years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015. — American Hereford Association, Jack Ward, executive vice presidentvv

A Gift to Give Back Legacy Hereford breeder Bonnie Coley-Malir attributes her time on the junior Hereford board and involvement in the Hereford breed with her successes today. by Kaylen Baker

Hereford legacy that began 78 years ago is now funding leadership opportunities for Hereford youth and future generations of the breed. Bonnie Coley-Malir was born into a long-standing Hereford family in Lafayette, Tenn. The Coley family

operation was started in 1938 by her grandfather, V.H. Coley, her father, Dee Coley, and her uncle, Clyde Coley. While growing up, it didn’t take Coley-Malir long to fall in love with Hereford cattle, especially the junior program, formerly the American Junior Hereford Association (AJHA), she says. “I went to my first AJHA convention when I was in the 8th grade, and that’s where I decided I really wanted to get involved with the junior association,” Coley-Malir says. “I was fortunate to win the national speech contest, and during my freshman year in college I ran for the national board and was elected to a three year term.” After graduating college in 1988 from the University of Tennessee with a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture and a major in animal science, Coley-Malir knew her passion was working with youth and set out to begin her career. “After college, I went to work for the American International Charolais Association as the head of their junior activities,” Coley-Malir says. “After six months in that position, the junior activities position opened at the American Hereford Association (AHA), and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to work for the breed I love.” It was Coley-Malir’s position with the AHA that allowed her to cross paths with her husband, Rick. “I met Rick in Kansas City, Mo., during the National FFA Convention in 1989,” Coley-Malir says. “He was a past national FFA president and was presenting a workshop at the convention. I was there for work. I firmly believe the Association brought me together with my husband.”

Passion for leadership

Rick Malir and Bonnie Coley-Malir recently made a monumental contribution to the future of Hereford youth programs.

/ November 2016

The pair now resides in Dublin, Ohio, where they own and operate City Barbeque, a restaurant and catering company with 29 locations in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and North Carolina. However, the Hereford breed is still near and dear to the Malir household.

Pictured (l to r) are members of the Coley family: Tommy, Bob, Bonnie, Jim, Martha, Carol and Johnny.

“When Rick and I got married in 1991, I had to leave the AHA,” ColeyMalir says. “I can still say it was my favorite job I’ve ever had.” Because of Coley-Malir’s passion for Hereford youth, the pair heavily discussed donating to the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA), and decided they wanted to give a donation that would be primarily focused on leadership activities for National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) members. The Malirs debuted their monumental gift Aug. 27, 2016, at The Harvest II event at the Kunde Family Winery in Sonoma Valley, Calif. The pair revealed they are giving a $500,000 cash gift paid over 10 years to HYFA for leadership cattle, but I was more active on the leadership side of programs and announced they will make a $1 million the NJHA, and that’s how I got to where I am.” planned estate gift to HYFA, bringing their total The next generation donation to Hereford youth to $1.5 million. Malir says he believes the junior association is instilling “I really want our Hereford youth to have the same qualities in Hereford youth that will build the next opportunities I had growing up, and I know some of generation of strong leaders. the leadership activities and events available can be cost “This nation needs leaders,” Malir says. “More prohibitive for a lot of people,” Coley-Malir says. “My than ever, we need youth leadership development hope is that through our donation, more kids will be opportunities and any time we can expose our young able to participate in these leadership activities that will people to these activities, we need give them life skills that are crucial do so. The NJHA and HYFA for their success.” My hope is that through to provide those opportunities and Malir says donating to HYFA was that is so important to our youth a no-brainer for him and his wife. our donation, more kids and their future.” “If Bonnie had not been working will be able to participate Aside from the leadership for the AHA in 1989, I would never opportunities the NJHA and the have met her,” Malir says. “That in these leadership HYFA provide, Coley-Malir says should be reason enough to donate activities that will give the friendships made through the to HYFA — but it is a tremendous organization are also important. program, and I am more than them life skills that are “The friendships I’ve made happy to support Bonnie’s passion crucial for their success. through the AHA have become and vision for our donation.” Coley-Malir says. “The Coley-Malir says if it weren’t for — Bonnie Coley-Malir life-long,” friends I made back then are the support of her mother, brothers, still a huge blessing to me. This Bob and Jim, and sister, Carol, as is just another benefit of youth getting involved in this well as the junior association and AHA, she wouldn’t be organization.” where she is today.

In Passing Cletus Devon Davis, 85, of Thorntown, Ind., passed away Oct. 5. Cletus graduated from Thorntown High School, and he owned Cletus Davis his own carpentry business. He took pride in his farming and in his livestock. He was a breeder of Hereford cattle, which earned him many high awards throughout the nation, including the Boone County Breeder’s and Feeder’s Distinguished Agriculture Career award. Cletus was involved in the Boone County 4-H organization. He was a Purdue sports fan, and he particularly enjoyed basketball. Cletus was also a little league baseball coach in Thorntown. He was a member of the John Purdue Club for many years. He is survived by his wife, Betty; children, Rick Davis and Jill Davis; and grandchildren, Garrett Kelly, Landon Kelly and Dalton Davis.

In the News China announces it will lift ban on U.S. beef Following a 13-year ban on U.S. beef exports to China, an announcement from the Chinese government indicates it will begin accepting U.S. beef from animals under 30 months of age. “This is great news for U.S. beef producers,” says Kent Bacus, director of international trade for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association. “While these initial reports are positive, we must continue technical negotiations and undergo the process of formally approving export certificates. China is already the world’s second largest buyer of beef, and with a growing middle class, the export opportunities for U.S. cattlemen and women are tremendous.” The next step is for United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials to work with China’s Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine to approve the certificates and protocols for exports. “Our cattle producers are the best in the world at producing high quality

/ November 2016

beef,” Bacus says. “To continue to grow demand for our product, our industry relies on fair trade based on sound science. This latest announcement by China is welcome news and further highlights the benefits of trade in the Pacific, opportunities that will only be expanded by passage of the Trans Pacific Partnership.” Beef exports largest in two years August was a strong month for U.S. beef exports, with export volume at its highest in nearly two years and value of exports at its highest in 2016, according to statistics released by the USDA and compiled by the USMEF (United States Meat Export Federation), a contractor to the Beef Checkoff Program. Beef export volume in August 2016, at 235.5 million lb., was 27% higher than in August 2015 — and the highest since October 2014 — and above 220 million lb. for the first time this year. Export value was $566.8 million, up 14% year-on-year. For January through August, export volume advanced 6% to 1.65 billion lb., while value was down 7% to about $4 billion. Exports accounted for 13.5% of total beef production in August and 10% for muscle cuts only — each up about one percentage point from a year ago. For January through August, these ratios were roughly steady with last year at 13% and 10% respectively. Export value per head of fed slaughter was $256.73 in August, down 4% from a year ago, and averaged out at $252.50 for January through August, down 12%. Exports of variety meat provided a strong boost to the August totals. Beef variety meat exports were up 25% in volume from a year ago at 69.6 million lb. and up 28% in value, to $85.8 million. “U.S. livestock producers deserve some good news in what has been a tough year, and this upward trend in exports is very encouraging,” says Philip Seng, USMEF president and CEO. “Currently, U.S. beef is very competitive, as production by our key competitors — Australia and the European Union — has moderated,

and prices have jumped. As U.S. competitiveness continues to improve, we remain optimistic that exports will maintain positive momentum through the end of this year and into 2017.” August beef exports exceeded year-ago levels in most major markets, setting new monthly records in South Korea (38.5 million lb., up 61% from a year ago) and Taiwan (10.9 million lb., up 23%). For January through August, market-specific highlights for U.S. beef included: • Japan was the leading market in both volume (376 million lb., up 16% from a year ago) and value ($984.2 million, up 9%), including strong growth for high-value chilled muscle cuts and beef tongues.

• Despite the persistently weak

peso, exports to Mexico increased 8% in volume from a year ago in volume to 340.3 million lb., while falling 9% in value to $649.6 million, led by larger volumes of shoulder clods and rounds.

• In Korea the increasing popularity of U.S. steaks — especially at retail — helped drive exports up 28% in volume from a year ago to 237.8 million lb. and 11% in value to $628.8 million.

• U.S. beef holds more than

two-thirds of the chilled-beef market in Taiwan, where exports increased 6% in volume to more than 57 million lb., while falling 3% in value to $213.5 million.

• Expanded access has created new

opportunities for U.S. beef in Indonesia, where exports grew fourfold in volume to 9.4 million lb. and more than doubled in value to $18.6 million. Along with solid growth in Vietnam, these results drove exports to the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) region 11% higher in volume to 33.4 million lb., while value fell 9% to $83.8 million.

HEREFORD MOM DIARIES

by Christy Couch Lee

The Unsung Heroes Giving thanks for the volunteer firefighters of rural communities. It was two years ago, but I can picture it like it was yesterday. It was most definitely one of the scariest nights of our lives. Our almost 3-year-old daughter, Caroline, had gone to sleep with a fever and what appeared to be a touch of a stomach bug. Heading into winter, that’s pretty much commonplace. And when it’s your third child, well, you feel like you’ve seen it all. Acetaminophen for the fever? Check. Bowl by the bed? Check. But at 3 a.m., I awoke to her in distress. She was trembling, stiff and unable to focus on my husband, Craig, or me — even with her eyes open. We truly had not seen it all after three kids. This was a first. And, let’s be honest, we were terrified. Craig called 911 and then his parents, who live on the Lee family homestead just three miles away. What happened next still brings me to tears, even two years later. Within minutes, our neighbor, cattleman and dear friend, Schuyler, walked through the door. He had gotten the call through our small village’s volunteer fire department. He knew the address being broadcast. He knew the 2-year-old in need. His wife tells me he bolted out the door to help. When I saw his familiar face step into our bedroom, the relief swept over me immediately. It didn’t take long for our yard and entryway to be filled with other volunteer firefighters — our neighbors and friends. Some recognized our address as one they knew. Others had heard a 2-year-old was in need and knew it was likely a child of a friend. Because in a small town of only hundreds, everyone knows everyone. At 3 a.m., when many were in the midst of wrapping up

/ November 2016

their harvests and had likely been in the fields late the night before, these gentlemen rushed to help their neighbors in need. They are the true definition of a hero. By the time this help arrived, Caroline was coming out of the episode. And when the paramedics arrived minutes later, she was talking and sharing her sweet little grin again. She took her first ambulance ride that night. It was my first one, too. And, our then 6-year-old was slightly jealous. After that first night in the ER, the weeks were filled with doctor visits, lab work and further testing. They were also filled with many sleepless nights and worry, a few too many nonfat pumpkin spice lattes and Momma’s mind going to some rather scary places. Initially, Caroline’s episode was diagnosed as a febrile seizure induced by fever. However, after another episode and further testing, doctors believe the condition was something lesser — night terrors. Although those are not pleasant, that diagnosis was an answer to countless prayers. And what’s even greater is that we haven’t experienced those episodes much beyond those initial scary few weeks.

During this season of thanks, Craig and I are thankful for three healthy children. Without a doubt, I will also be forever thankful for the neighbors and friends who arrived within minutes of our call. Thank heavens their main purpose that night was emotional support for two frightened parents. But to know in the case of an emergency help will arrive within minutes, even in the wee hours of the night, for nothing more than the pride they take in their volunteer roles and the care they have for their neighbors? Well, that’s something I’ll never forget. Being in the livestock industry, small-town life often comes with the territory. Sure, there can be inconveniences of living an hour from a Target and potentially limited choices of local dining. But, without a doubt, no big city’s paid emergency response teams could compare to the compassion and care provided by those in our small communities where neighbors help neighbors and friends help friends. And that’s something for which we can all be thankful, indeed. HW
