Breed Focus

Rounding Out 2020

by Jack Ward

The 2020 Annual Membership Meeting and Conference features a week-long celebration of Team Hereford. The American Hereford Association (AHA) recently finished a fantastic “Hereford Homecoming” themed Annual Membership Meeting and Conference week that included virtual educational and award sessions along with the new Board election. I would like to thank our industry partners for their continued support of this event and give a special thanks to Merck Animal Health.

adult memberships, a slight growth in registrations and a positive consolidated net income. Here are a few highlights for the year:

electronically in 2020. The Board continues to support developing MyHerd tools that allow breeders to customize searches and lists.

The “Hereford Homecoming” week started with some great educational webinars. Shane Bedwell, AHA chief operating officer and director of breed improvement, kicked off the week with a session on breed improvement topics. The following evening, Danette Amstein, Midan Marketing, touched on consumer preferences and Danielle Beck, National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, gave an update on agriculture policy issues in D.C. On Wednesday evening, we turned our focus to feeder calf marketing and health with presentations from Nolan Stone of S= Cattle Co. and Lowell Midla, VMD, MS, Merck Animal Health. Thursday’s awards ceremony recognized our talented Hereford juniors, dedicated breeders and outstanding Certified Hereford Beef ® partners. We hosted the Annual Membership Meeting Saturday morning which started with a membership breakfast to honor the 2020 Hall of Fame and Merit inductees. Burke Healy was introduced as the newest member of the Hereford Hall of Merit and Warren and Isabel Brown, Billy Ashe and John and Ginger Dudley were recognized as the newest members of the Hereford Hall of Fame.

A 2020 reflection Like everything this year, the Annual Meeting took on a different look, but it did not slow down the enthusiasm of the membership, Board or staff. Fiscal year 2020 saw an increase in both junior and

• The Board formed a new

Commercial Programs committee to focus on programs and relationships promoting Hereford genetics into commercial cow herds and feedlots. Both the Premium Red Baldy and Hereford Advantage programs saw growth in participation, helping to increase the value of Herefordinfluenced cattle. The membership also saw a renewed commitment of AHA field staff in the placement of Hereford-influenced feeder cattle. Partnerships have been formed with cattle procurement firms to help place large groups of feeder cattle; plus, Hereford special feeder sales continue to prosper.

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

• Over 83% of animals were recorded

• Juniors continue to be a significant part of the AHA with growth in membership and in programs like the National Junior Hereford Association Fed Steer Shootout.

• Breed improvement continues to

be at the forefront. A genomic component was added to the maternal traits, which is reflected in the weekly Pan-American Cattle Evaluation. The National Reference Sire Program remains vital in allowing breeders to evaluate and identify great young sires.

Looking ahead to next year, the AHA will continue to focus on identifying and proving the value of Hereford genetics in commercial cow herds. The message from this year is clear: “Come Home to Hereford.” Hereford.org

Performance Matters

Maternal Matters

by Shane Bedwell

A look at the progression of Hereford female traits.

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

There has been a lot of positive energy surrounding the Hereford marketplace this fall, and it is encouraging to see and hear the success stories regardless of the production point/emphasis Hereford breeders are experiencing. It is clear that above average cattle paired with strong breeder reputation equal a great outcome, especially in a year like this when folks aren’t willing to gamble — they want the sure bet. “Come Home to Hereford” could not be more apparent with renewed interest in the breed, as well as the increased demand experienced at the fall bull sales. Hereford genetics are simply working, and folks know they can count on them.

Invest in your females Along these lines I want to continue to encourage you to focus on the cow families and females that have made this breed legendary for the last 140 years. Keeping a keen eye on feet and leg structure, along with great teat and udder structure, will allow the breed to continue to distance itself from the rest. Continued longevity of these cow families and their potency they can pass on through their sons will certainly keep the breed strong and commercial cattlemen coming back for more. In the Breed Improvement section of the 2020 Annual Report you will find some great trends relative to female

traits and strong improvements in the last 10 years. On average, over the last decade the expected progeny differences (EPDs), Milk (M) and Sustained Cow Fertility (SCF) improved by 38% and 36% respectively. Admittedly, M is a value that needs to suit your environment and your commercial customers’ needs, but as a whole, I think most will agree this trend is favorable, especially when you factor in the increase in udder and teat EPD improvement by better than a 12% increase in the last 10 years. Combining the two of these is not easy and often antagonistic, but progress is being made. Likewise, as you study the improvements and favorable trend line for the SCF EPD, you may question how the data was acquired for this EPD as its first published production run was in 2017. Because Whole Herd Total Performance Reporting (TPR™) is celebrating its 20th anniversary, phenotypes are available and comparisons can be made even though this trait is new. It is encouraging this trend is indicating that we are heading in the right direction and providing a great barometer for making key decisions — even more so now given the fact the genomic component is contributing to all maternal traits. This definitely gives you a more informed picture of what those daughters can be like later in life opposed to waiting until they are in production. The investment in female genotypes compared to male genotypes is also telling as you compare the trend and shift in the last 10 years (see Figure 1). Of the total genotypes turned in 2019, 57% were female genotypes. This speaks strongly to the continued investment in breed advancement and dedication to improvement. It is undeniable that marrying this knowledge with years of cow family history paves the way to progress for generations to come. Hereford.org

Fall Registration Know-How

by Laura Loschke

To help ensure the registration process goes as smoothly and quickly for you as possible there are a few things to keep in mind. The following are key items to remember as you register fall calves.

What to keep in mind

• When calf registration forms are

missing required information, the calf registration is placed on hold until the correct information or data is provided by the breeder. Be sure to submit all required information.

• You must have an active,

up-to-date membership with the American Hereford Association (AHA) in order to register any calves. Meaning, your annual dues have been renewed and your member service fee has been billed.

• The conception date (or embryo recovery date, for embryo transfer calves) determines who the breeder is of the calf. Whereas, the owner of the cow at the time of birth determines who her original owner is.

• When registering embryo

transfer calves, a recipient dam can only be entered if the cow is a registered Hereford dam. If the animal is a commercial dam that field must be left blank.

• Whoever owns the dam at the

time of birth is who must register the calf. If a calf is purchased at the side of the dam, the original owner of the calf still has to be the one to register the calf and then transfer it to the new owner. If the dam has been transferred recently, pay close attention to

| November 2020

the transfer date on the dam to determine who should be the one to register the calf.

• There can only be one breeder listed on an animal. There cannot be multiple breeders listed. If the dam is multiply owned, make sure you pay close attention to which owner is listed as the breeder. You can choose to change who is listed as the breeder between the owners, but it must be one of the owners on the dam at the time of conception.

• If a dam is multiply owned

at the time a calf is born, the calf can only be registered in one of the dam owner’s name originally. If the calf needs to be registered to all owners listed on the dam, the calf must be registered to one owner and then transferred to all owners you want listed on the calf.

• Tattoos are a requirement at

the time of registration. It is not required in both ears, but the calf must be tattooed in at least one ear and that tattoo must be reported to AHA at the time of registration. The tattoo is up to you, the breeder remember, the tattoo must be a combination of numbers and/ or letters only. No symbols can be used in the tattoos.

• The herd ID of the calf must be

unique to each individual calf. No two animals in the same herd can have the same herd ID. An easy way to do this is to simply make the herd ID the same as the animal’s tattoo. This is a common practice with most breeders.

• Registration fees are calculated

based on the age of the calf when it is submitted for registration. Remember, registering your calves electronically either through MyHerd or imported files from Herd Management programs (CattleMax or GEM) saves you money. See the table below for calf registration rates.

Age of calf Up to 4 months 4-8 months 8-12 months More than 12 months

Regular $14.50 $20.50 $27.50 $52.50

Electronic $12.50 $17.50 $22.50 $52.50

Friendly reminders Allow three to four weeks for results on new DNA samples, from the time they are received at the lab in Lincoln, Neb., and are processed with the AHA. If you need DNA tests and genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences for sales, shows, etc., allow for at least six weeks to receive results. Your Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI) bill can be viewed and paid on MyHerd. If you are a MyHerd user you will no longer receive a statement in the mail from AHA or HPI. They will be sent via email at the beginning of each month. Having trouble navigating through MyHerd? Contact AHA Customer Service at 816-842-3757. To sign up for MyHerd, email your member number to myherd@hereford.org. Laura Loschke is the records supervisor and education and information service coordinator of the American Hereford Association. She can be reached at lloschke@hereford.org.

Youth Movement

Reflections of Past and Present

by Bailey Morrell

In a year like 2020 where life has thrown everything at us but the kitchen sink, I have found I focus more on reflection. In fact, as I sit here writing amid my quarantine due to COVID-19 reflecting on the past and knowing how far we have come as a breed is quite inspirational. Did you know the Hereford breed originated circa 1742 in Herefordshire, England? Did you know it took until 1817 for Hereford cattle to come to the U.S.? Maybe you did know this because you participated in the National Junior Hereford Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quiz bowl contest, or you find yourself really interested in Hereford history.

Together as one Well, as I personally reflect on the last 258 years since our breed was founded in England, I like to think about how far we have come.

Our breed has performed in the feedyards, won in the showring, been docile enough for a 7-yearold to handle and has been in our hearts for a very longtime. The number of generational ranches in our breed is astounding, and I could not name them all if I tried. These families, these ranches and this breed has withstood everything from depressions to drought, blizzards to hurricanes and every other thing nature or otherwise has thrown at them. It is honestly no wonder our ranching community has been so resilient during 2020. We have been through worse as an industry, but we have always come back stronger. In fact, seeing the smiles of juniors at the 2020 VitaFermÂŽ Junior National Hereford Expo this summer, after every hoop we jumped through to make it happen, made the countless Zoom calls and hours worth it, and made this year worth it. You see, the use of technology is another thing on which to reflect. In years before, we had no Zoom, no social media to spread information. When we look back at the very first National Polled Hereford Show in Nashville, Tenn., in 1974 and think about what we pulled off this year it would have been impossible to pull off a similar feat at that time for this breed. However, it became possible when the people who make up this breed decided to stop at nothing to host an event for juniors to showcase their hard work. The people of this breed made it happen. It has been 25 years of progress since one of our most significant changes in the Hereford breed. The choice to no longer be divided between the American Hereford Association and the American Polled Hereford Association; the choice to merge as one Association committed to providing cattlemen and cattlewomen advances

in breed registry, genetic improvement and education. Although I was not alive to see it happen, I still feel the effects of this change in our breed. The merger created an opportunity for our breed to work together in our efforts to produce cattle that meet the needs of the production industry. With this merger we began to combine polled and horned Hereford cattle to make our breed better in all facets; feedlot, seedstock, and showring. Together the people of this breed made it possible for growth and longevity that will allow for future generations to have the same love and passion for the redand-white-faced cattle breed. Hereford cattle have changed over the years no doubt. We have bred for small and round, tall and narrow, eventually leading to stout and functional. We have been trendsetters in show products, genetic development and junior programs. We have developed marketing campaigns, feedlot programs and scholarship opportunities. Our cattle and kids have an industry that backs them and a Hereford family to love them. All of this is possible because of the people who strive to make our breed better every day. The Hereford breed will withstand 2020, and we will become better for it. It is what we have done over the years and it is what we will continue to do, together.

Hereford Women CHB: It’s What’s for Thanksgiving Dinner by Briley Miller

Turkey has been the Thanksgiving favorite for as long as anyone can remember. However we have started a new tradition in our household: Certified Hereford Beef ® (CHB) prime rib. Now, I’m not here to tell you turkey is not a tasty side for those traditionalists out there, but I am here to tell you to give the prime rib a try this year. Now, some people may be intimidated by a large prime rib roast. But, with this fool-proof recipe from the National Hereford Women (NHW) website, even the novice cook need not be afraid.

National Prime Rib Roast Ingredients: 2 tablespoons minced garlic 2 tablespoons crushed black pepper ½ cup course sea salt ½ cup fresh rosemary 4-pound Certified Hereford Beef prime rib roast (bone in) Instructions: 1) Pull your roast out of the refrigerator a few hours prior to cooking and let it sit on the counter so it is almost room temperature prior to cooking. 2) Preheat oven to maximum temperature. Rub the roast while the oven is heating. For the rub: 1) Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix well. 2) Coat the entire roast with the rub. If your roast is larger you may need to double the rub recipe. 3) Place roast on a roaster rack with the fat side up. 4) Cook for 15 minutes at maximum oven temperature. Then cover roast with foil and turn oven down to 325 F. Continue to cook for 15 minutes per pound or until desired cook temperature is reached.

| November 2020

Once you have stepped out of the turkey comfort zone, you will need sides for the rest of this fantastic meal. There is no doubt the traditional mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing and green bean casserole will make fine additions to your prime rib. But, let’s introduce a few new options that will make tasty sides to your red meat main dish.

B&D Herefords’ Wedding Potatoes Ingredients: 2 pounds frozen, shredded hash browns 2 cups sharp shredded cheddar cheese ¼ cup onion (chopped) 1 cup milk ½ cup butter, melted 1 can cream of chicken soup ¼ teaspoon pepper 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup sour cream Instructions: 1) Sauté onion in butter. Stir in the milk, soup, salt, pepper and sour cream. 2) Add hash browns and mix well. 3) Pour into a greased 9-by-13-inch pan. (Or scoop about ½ cup into greased muffin cups.) 4) Bake 1¼ hours at 350 F.

Judy’s Broccoli Rice Casserole Ingredients: 16-ounce package frozen chopped broccoli 1¼ cups uncooked Minute® rice 1 can cream of mushroom soup ½ cup celery (chopped) ½ cup onion (chopped) 1 jar Cheese Whiz (small) Instructions: 1) Microwave frozen broccoli per package directions. 2) Prepare 1¼ cups raw Minute Rice per package directions.

3) Combine all ingredients. Cook in the microwave on high, stirring occasionally until bubbly and heated through. I hope we have given you some ideas to expand your culinary horizon this Thanksgiving. I know we will be enjoying a medium-rare prime rib on what is commonly known as turkey day. I’m sure you noticed I did not offer a new and tasty dessert recipe for you to try this year. As sure as turkey goes with Thanksgiving, pumpkin pie is a most traditional dessert as well. Some traditions are much better left alone. Happy Thanksgiving to our Hereford families from all of us with the NHW!

Carter Gnuse wanted his own Hereford heifer to start a cow herd. Since purchasing the heifer from Richard Doetker’s local church fundraiser, Gnuse has shown the heifer’s steer calves as 4-H projects.

When You Give a Hereford A retired law enforcement officer with contagious generosity gives back to his community with the help of Hereford cattle.

| November 2020

ichard Doetker spent his days serving Lincoln, Neb., as a law enforcement officer and his evenings caring for a small herd of purebred Hereford cattle. Growing up sorting cattle on his parents’ farm in Pickerell, Neb., taught Doetker patience, steadiness and composure. Those traits came in handy for his years policing. Doetker’s calm demeanor and steady voice diffused many potentially dangerous situations. At home, his cattle provided him light on his darkest days. Watching a white-faced calf take its first unsteady steps was a welcome reprieve from the weight Doetker carried as a criminal investigator. Now retired after serving as an officer for 25 years and an investigator for 17, Doetker’s Hereford cattle help him give back. Over the last four years, he has donated two purebred calves to help his community and Nebraska cattlemen. In doing so, Doetker has learned you receive more when you give, and he hopes to inspire others to do the same. “Your act of kindness is like helping God answer someone’s prayers,” Doetker says.

When you give a church a calf In October 2016, Doetker’s congregation, Candlewood Church, was at risk of losing its building. Its rented space was up for sale, and the church would need to raise $700,000 to buy the property. Doetker looked at his spring calves and decided to sell a show-quality heifer to give the proceeds to the church. He listed her on Craigslist for a phone bid-off. His first bid tugged on his heartstrings. Then 9-year-old Carter Gnuse bid all the money he earned from his bucket calf — $650 — to buy his first Hereford heifer. Doetker was moved. His first cow was also a Hereford his father helped him buy at their local sale barn. That commercial Hereford instilled a love for the breed in Doetker that lasts today. In Gnuse, Doetker saw a kindred spirit. And, as a law enforcement officer, Doetker saw many troubled young people who needed the lessons a Hereford heifer could provide, such as responsibility, accountability, hard work and honesty. Each interested bidder who contacted Doetker heard of Gnuse’s bid and his dream of having a Hereford heifer to start his cow herd. Like Doetker, they were moved. None had the heart to bid against the boy. Meanwhile, Gnuse begged his dad to text Doetker each day to learn if they were still in the lead until finally, the text came that Miss Hereford.org

Gnuse and the heifer garnered champion Hereford heifer honors at their local show. Since her show success, Miss Candlewood raised two steer calves Gnuse also exhibited.

...When You Give a Hereford continued from page 21

Nebraska’s March 2019 flood left many roads near the Hansen family’s cattle operation completely unpassable.

When you give a couple a calf

PHOTO COURTESY OF THE GRAND ISLAND INDEPENDENT

On March 13, 2019, a perfect storm of frozen ground, iced-over rivers and torrential rain spawned an unprecedented flood in Cushing, Neb. It sent large ice chunks and a wall of water heading toward James and Darlene Hansen’s bottom field, where they calved cows each spring. Darlene received a call to leave her bank job and help move cows and their new calves to higher ground. By the time she reached the river bottom, the rising water made it impassable for her four-wheel-drive pickup truck. So, Darlene got out and waded through the freezing water to a small strip of higher ground where the cows were seeking shelter. Her father-in-law was calling several cows to higher ground, and Darlene desperately tried to push the rest of the cows and calves off the shrinking dry strip of land. However, the cattle were reluctant to leave the dry ground and wade through the icy water to reach safety. Some cows would start across but quickly run back for their calves. Darlene could see the water was rising quickly, so she scooped up a calf whose dam

was on her way to higher ground and trudged into the cold water. She stopped and clung to a tree as she called James to tell him, “It was bad.” Struggling to keep herself and the calf above the rising currents, Darlene made the heart-wrenching decision to let the calf go and watched as the water took it. She grabbed shrubs and brush along the fence line and fought her way to another tree where her husband and father-in-law found her — cold and battered by the water and ice. Once warm, Darlene and James went back to the bottom pasture for a final daring rescue attempt of the cows and calves on the shrinking strip of dry land before the second wave of flooding reached them. Together, they were able to haul another 28 calves and 16 cows to safety. Sadly, around 20 head were lost. Doetker heard tales of the historic flood on the news. Once again, he felt moved to help and had just the way in mind. Doetker had a Hereford bull calf, named for a good friend and generous veterinarian, and wanted to donate the calf in his late friend’s honor. Doetker called Chris Bernt, a farmer who lived in the flood-devastated area. Bernt told him the Hansen family’s harrowing tale, and Doetker could not think of anyone more deserving. The Hansens were shocked by a stranger’s generosity. “There definitely still are good people out there! I’m not sure we deserved the bull or not, but it was so appreciated — more than they will ever know,” Darlene says. “The Bernts were so kind to tell Rich and Eileen about our ordeal. We had so many people calling to see if we needed anything and offering to help any way they could.” Richard and his wife, Eileen, delivered the bull. After dropping the calf off with the Hansens, they went to eat at a restaurant the Hansens recommended. When it came time for the tab, it had already been paid for. It turns out kindness is contagious. As for the bull calf, he is grown and working for the Hansens. His first calves arrive in January, and as a way of paying it forward, James leased him to his neighbor to cover his small cow herd for free. One day, when the bull retires from the Hansen farm, James plans to send Doetker a check for him. Although it’s unlikely Doetker will accept it. Likely, the money will be paid forward once again because, as Doetker will tell you, kindness always keeps going. “You go in thinking you’re giving, but you’re receiving so much back,” Doetker says. “Giving is addictive. As I said before, your act of kindness could be helping God answer somebody else’s prayers.” Hereford.org

Influence Your Circle

Retiring 2020 AHA President Joel Birdwell creates an ever-expanding circle of influence. by Diane Meyer

How do you gauge the excitement of a crowd you cannot see? How do you set the pace, know where to focus? It was an obstacle this secondgeneration auctioneer and cattleman from Kingfisher, Okla., addressed with a simple mantra: “Influence your circle,” says 2020 American Hereford Association (AHA) President Joel Birdwell. “That’s all we’re asked to do in whatever the situation is. Influence who you can and who is in your circle and that can make a big difference.” Joel applies this philosophy at home, on the AHA Board of Directors and in the livestock industry.

Round the dinner table

e knew each sale lot to a T. He knew the traits to highlight for each animal, knew the additions noted on the supplement sheet. He shuffled the papers and the glossy catalog in front of him and peered over the microphone to size up the crowd one last time. Normally, he knew what to expect from this audience; after all, he had led this annual Hereford bull sale many times before. Normally, 150 eager faces were seated and ready to start the bidding. This year he was told interest had increased; yet a mere 20 people filled the seats before the podium. This year he faced a new challenge — influencing the majority of buyers on the other end of a phone and behind a computer screen.

| November 2020

Creating a strong circle of influence starts with learning from and with your inner circle. Joel grew up on his family’s ranch in Fletcher, Okla., where Hereford cattle are the operation’s foundation. Today the Birdwell operation consists of 400 registered Hereford and Angus cows Joel co-owns with his father, Jim. A former fieldman for the American Polled Hereford Association (APHA), Jim purchased the family’s first registered polled Herefords in 1972. The father-and-son duo use proven bulls to consistently breed for economically important traits for the commercial cattleman: calving ease, fertility, growth and carcass traits. In partnership with his wife, Bridget, and her family, Joel runs 500 commercial cows and 1,500 to 2,000 head of stocker cattle on winter wheat. Around 70 bulls are sold in a spring production Hereford.org

sale and private treaty. Females are marketed privately throughout the year and in a joint fall production sale. Working quarter horses are also part of the offering. Growing up, Joel was active in the Junior Hereford Association of Oklahoma showing cattle. He traveled to Hereford sales and shows with his dad, who was building his auctioneering business after his time with the APHA. There is no doubt, Joel says, his upbringing influenced what he wanted to do for a living. His passion for the livestock industry grew at Oklahoma State University (OSU). The animal science major with a business option competed on the l995 livestock judging team under the mentorship of Mark Johnson, who also headed up the OSU purebred cattle operation. For six years, Joel managed the purebred cows at the university and gained experience in every aspect of the cattle business. Cindy Pribil, who ran the beef barn at the time, remains a close friend and partner in the Birdwells’ spring production sale. continued on page 28...

Being raised in the Hereford breed inspired Joel to pursue his passion for cattle as a career.

We are so proud of how Joel has represented our family in the Hereford breed and it is a great honor to have our family included in Hereford history because of his leadership. We are all proud a young man like Joel had an opportunity to lead an association like the AHA. — Jim Birdwell

advocate for it,” he says. “It goes back to influencing who you can influence.”

Round the Board room

The Birdwell family (pictured l to r): Jarret, Jhett, Bridget, Joel and Jud.

Following his dad’s lead, Joel hopes to influence his sons Jarret (18), Jud (16) and Jhett (13), to have faith in God and to value family, integrity and honesty. “I want them to realize things you do are important, but your character and your integrity and your honesty are what’s most important,” he says. “My dad is that kind of example to me, and I see how people respect him because of his integrity and his character. I hope I can be that kind of influence on my boys.” All three boys are athletes and play a big part in the cattle operation. Whether or not they return to the cattle business, Joel hopes they share their respect for agriculture with their own circles. “I hope they have an appreciation for agriculture and realize the importance of it and

In 2016, Joel found himself seated around a new circle of influencers as a newly elected director of the AHA Board. Along with classmates Tommy Mead, Ga., and Bruce Thomas, Mont., he set out to serve the breed he loves, honored to follow in the footsteps of those who have inspired him. “Everybody needs to give back in some way whenever they can,” he says. During his tenure, he chaired the show and sale and breed improvement committees, the latter of which he enjoyed most. A few memorable feats with which he was involved include implementing Biometric Open Language Tools (BOLT) technology into the genetic evaluation and being part of the most recent strategic planning session. In 2019, he was elected AHA president. “It was really an honor for the people I’ve served with to elect me and trust me,” he describes, and quickly adds, “Sure, I’m the chairman, but I don’t have a bigger role in what’s going on than anybody else. Whether you’re chairman or it’s your first year on the Board, you’re just as important.” He is proud of his 11 teammates for their shared vision of the direction for the breed. “We all want to do what’s best for the Association and the breed and advance Hereford cattle and Hereford people,” he notes. “In my opinion, that’s a great testament to the Hereford breed and the people involved with it.” With any leadership role there are sure to be some learning curves, and in this role Joel learned issues he thought were black and white actually had a lot of grey area. “There are a lot of different operations, different scopes, different sizes, different ways people run their operations and it’s all encompassed in the Association,” he explains. “You have to think about

all those different operations and how any kind of policy affects people and that’s a little harder than I thought it would be, for sure.” To his successor he advises leaning on the other board members and the AHA staff, and there is no doubt the staff is going to get it done. To the full Board he extends his appreciation for their hard work, help and influence. “I could not have asked for a better group to serve with,” he says. After addressing the membership for a final time as president on Oct. 24 at the AHA Annual Membership Meeting and Conference in Kansas City, Mo., Joel will continue to extend his influence on the breed. “I hope people take away that I took every minute of being on the Board seriously and respected every different kind of operation and person involved in the Hereford business. I hope they take away that I tried to do my best with everything they did.”

Round the pastures Working together, this retiring president is confident Hereford producers can grow the breed’s role in the commercial industry. “Efficiency, adaptability, hardiness, soundness, longevity. Those are real staples of the Hereford breed. Those are the things we’ve always been good at, and we can do those things better than anybody,” he says. He continues, “We’ve improved our calving ease. We’ve improved our growth. We’ve improved our carcass traits. People can gain those traits Herefords have always been good at and don’t have

to sacrifice anywhere else. To me, that’s where we’re going to continue to get our foothold.” With more advancement in the last decade than he has seen in his lifetime, he stresses further growth is easily in reach by promoting commercial marketing programs and research programs. He points to breed improvement initiatives like BOLT, profit indices and the National Reference Sire Program, which have put the breed in a great position. “We have to advance Hereford genetics in the real world and in the entire industry because that is going to drive our entire Association and every member’s profitability,” he says.

Full circle When Joel proclaimed the final “sold!” to the 20 buyers before him, he was astounded to discover the sale had garnered higher averages than ever. Like their cattle, Hereford breeders proved tough and resilient through the pandemic of 2020, adapting to unknown environments to come out stronger. “We can do more when we work together, whether it be working with others to have enough cattle for a production sale, putting a set of feeder cattle together or banding together to fund a research program,” Joel reflects. “Team Hereford is all encompassing. It’s everybody involved with the Hereford breed. It’s the staff. It’s the Board members. It’s the breeders. None of us can reach everybody, by any means. Well, you don’t have to reach everybody. All you have to do is influence your circle.”

HEALTH

Antimicrobial Stewardship by Justin Welsh

document entitled “Roadmap for Reducing the Need for Antibiotics” from HealthforAnimals, the global organization for animal health companies, explains nicely in its introduction the concept of Antimicrobial Stewardship:

"Antibiotics are a cornerstone of modern medicine and public health. Their importance to human and animal health cannot be understated, which is why antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is such an urgent global threat. When bacteria develop tolerance or resistance to antibiotics, we risk returning to a time when animals – and people – fell seriously ill or even died from simple, treatable infections.

Antibiotics are the only way to treat a bacterial disease. There is no alternative. As the producers of animal medicines and other animal health products, our industry equips veterinarians to deal with animal disease. Reducing antibiotic use without first tackling disease rates would mean sick animals go untreated, causing unnecessary suffering and increased risk to other animals and people.

But we can exploit the full spectrum of our veterinary tools to reduce the need for antibiotics. By better protecting animals from the threat of disease, identifying health issues earlier and treating them quickly and responsibly, we can bring down disease levels and with it, the need for antibiotics. This requires maximizing the long-term and preventative health benefits of vaccination, nutrition, biosecurity, disease surveillance diagnostics and other animal health technologies. The ability to manage and control animal disease has profound consequences for human health and development, from ensuring the safety of proteins such as meat, milk, fish and eggs to reducing the risk to people of bacterial animal-borne diseases. And, while the links between antibiotics in animals and growing levels of resistance remain complex, AMR affects us all.” This introduction encapsulates many of the issues surrounding this very complex topic. Antimicrobial stewardship in short is an effort we ALL need to be a part

of. Livestock producers, veterinarians, MD’s, Animal health companies, pet owners, and human patients are all key players in this critical effort to retain the effectiveness of antibiotics. The fact is that the list of new antibiotics isn’t growing. So, what do we do? That answer is well described in the “Roadmap” document and revolves around three pillars: Prevention, Detection and Treatment. Efforts in antimicrobial stewardship will not be successful unless we prevent disease. Three key components of prevention are vaccination, biosecurity and animal wellbeing. Important vaccine topics are implementing proper vaccination protocols, providing veterinarian/vaccine access to underserved populations, and working with regulatory bodies to allow use of the newest vaccine technologies. Better consumer understanding of biosecurity needs for livestock and training for animal handlers in biosecurity are also needs. Finally, animal well-being promotes healthier animals. Continued research into nutrition, immune function and best practices in animal handling all help prevent disease and thus the need for antibiotics. We also must monitor animal disease and antibiotic usage. Utilizing new technology to see disease occurrence trends and geographies, monitoring and sharing resistance data and how antibiotics are used will be necessary for success. Individual animal monitoring along with better, faster, more specific diagnostic tools will all have positive implications in antibiotic stewardship. Disease will continue to occur and thus the need for treatment will continue as well. Antibiotics are a key part of animal well-being. Through better training and diagnostics, veterinarians and animal caretakers will be able to make treatment decisions that are more individualized and focused to use the right antibiotic at the right dose, time and route. Continued efforts to improve prevention, monitoring and treatment of disease in both animals and humans are hallmarks of a OneHealth approach to antimicrobial stewardship. Retaining the use and usefulness of antibiotics will require all of us to change our view of how we approach animal disease. Continuing to do the same thing and expecting a different result is the definition of… well, I think you get the point.

10 Dimes to Make a Dollar Nuggets of management advice that may generate a better ROI for your operation. by Kindra Gordon

“I

t takes 10 dimes to make a dollar.” Years ago, I recall a savvy cattle producer sharing that advice with an audience of his peers. His point was taking care of small management details each adds up to contribute to the bottom line. I was reminded of this advice recently during a series of industry speakers featured virtually as part of the Cattle U event hosted by High Plains Journal. A variety of management “dimes” were shared — offering opportunities for producers to make change and enhance their profit margins. Here is a roundup of that advice to consider applying to your own operation:

-1

How do you add value to the cattle you produce?

That was the question Brian Bertelson, vice president of field operations for U.S. Premium Beef addressed, noting “value” means having the right product at the right time at the right location. Bertelsen points out reducing risk of cattle through health/ vaccination programs, genetic

investment and nutrition programs are key for adding value in today’s marketplace. As an extra tip, he suggests those who hot brand place it up near the tailhead to protect hide value.

-2

You need to verify it

If you are putting extra management efforts into your cattle, Bertelson stresses, “Verifying something can set you apart from other sellers.” He suggests developing a “feeder calf resume” for your calves, and notes many verifications for brand programs, specific retailers, niche markets and even exports have similar requirements, which can create multiple buyers for your cattle. As well, Bertelson states, “If you want to develop a reputation [for your cattle], you have to keep your name associated with the cattle,” — which means traceability in some form. That may be brands, traditional or electronic ear tags, or third-party verification programs. Additionally, Bertelson emphasizes value-added marketing “boils down to communication.”

He explains, “If they [buyers] don’t know when and where you are selling them, they might miss them…Also, they need to plan feeder cattle pen space, so advance warning is beneficial. Communicate in advance when you will be selling your calves.”

-3

Follow cattle through to the rail

Do you know how your calves perform once they leave your ranch? Feedlot performance as well as final yield and quality data offer key information to evaluate what genetic or management changes might be made to enhance the final beef product. Bertelsen suggests grid marketing, retained ownership, or simply building a relationship with your cattle buyer and feeder may help return some of that information to you. Similarly, Ty Lawrence with West Texas A&M University, emphasizes minimizing carcass discounts can be more important to profitability than aiming for premiums. For example, animals over 30 months of age see an average discount of $17/cwt.; carcass weight variations below 600 pounds and over 900 Hereford.org

pounds can also create discounts. Carcasses grading Select (or lower) due to minimal marbling can see as much as a $16/cwt. discount. And overly fat carcasses, reaching Yield Grade 4 and Yield Grade 5 may be discounted $12/cwt. and nearly $18/cwt., respectively.

-4

Strive for moderation with cow size

Dustin Aherin, a RaboResearch animal protein analyst, acknowledges it is difficult to find consensus in the industry with regard to the “right” cow size. But from a review of industry data across the past two decades, Aherin reports the data suggests the most economically efficient cows are within the 1,200- to 1,400pound range with a peak lactation near 25 lbs./day. Noting the maxim “everything in moderation,” seems to make sense, he concludes.

-5

Dig into forage analysis

It is often said you cannot manage what you do not measure. This is especially true with analyzing forages for nutrient quality, emphasizes Rebecca Kern with Ward Laboratories. She advocates not only doing analysis on hay, but also pastures and cover crops. Most importantly, Kern encourages producers to take time to understand the analysis they get back from the lab. This can be done by calling the lab and having them go over the results with you, or seeking out a nutritionist or Extension specialist to walk through the analysis with you. By understanding the information provided, Kern says producers will be better able to make decisions that have a positive effect on their bottomline.

-6

Do not skimp on cow nutrition

Nutrition is an investment that does pay off, says Jack Oattes, a beef cattle specialist with Biozyme®. Why? Because without Hereford.org

proper nutrition the impact may be reduced calf health and immunity, lowered rebreeding rate and decreased milk production. Interestingly, did you realize a market steer spends 30-38% of his lifetime getting his nutrition from his mother’s placenta? Thus, Oattes emphasizes proper nutritional management of the cow all year long is key for her maintenance and the development of a marketable calf year-after-year.

-7

Consider sexed semen

While this technology may have seemed out of reach a few years ago, Kansas State University’s Sandy Johnson reports it is becoming more practical for beef operations to utilize today. She says, “There’s a great opportunity in the commercial cattle industry to mate a number of cows to a maternal sire to create F1 females. Or, mate them to a terminal sire to create as many male calves to have steers for marketing.” Additionally, Johnson says sexed semen offers appeal to utilize among yearling heifers to breed them to have heifer calves for calving ease. And, sexed semen makes sense for embryo transfer and invitro fertilization matings when a specific sex of progeny is being targeted.

-8

Think of your ranch in parts

Colorado State University Beef Extension Specialist Logan Hoffman encourages producers to take a different view of their ranch. Specifically, he suggests classifying the ranch in one of three categories. These are Support Centers, which represent fixed costs; Cost Centers, which are expenses; and Profit Centers. Examples of items that would go into each center include labor, equipment, interest and administrative costs in the support center. Feed, hay, grazing and veterinary expenses would go into the cost center, and income

from the cow-calf enterprise would be part of the profit center. If a ranch has other income generating enterprises such as a hunting lodge, or cash crops those should also be looked at separately with their related fixed costs, expenses and income. “Breaking a farm or ranch business into parts allows you to drill down and find strengths and weaknesses,” Hoffman explains.

-9

Know your UCOP — unit cost of production

Hoffman says, “This is the most important number to calculate on a ranch.” As examples, he suggests evaluating your weaned calf enterprise cost per calf weaned; replacement heifer development cost per heifer; hay cost per ton harvested and so on. While often the focus of keeping records is for tax purposes or lenders, Hoffman advises producers, “The goal should instead be collecting data and utilizing it to make good ranch decisions.”

-10

Connect with consumers

The bottom line in the food business is if consumers lose interest — or trust — in your product, your market becomes smaller and smaller. Danette Amstein with Midan Marketing, who grew up on a Kansas cattle operation, encourages producers to remember that the beef industry is striving to feed consumers around the world. And she says the good news is that they want to hear from producers. Amstein suggests that sharing the story of beef through social media posts, photos, videos and other avenues is increasingly important to retain consumers’ trust and loyalty to beef for the future.

Celebrating Tradition and Progress 2020 AHA ANNUAL REPORT

iscal year (FY) 2020 has certainly challenged everyone, but like every good batter who faces a hall-of-fame pitcher, you need to step up to the plate, dig in and aim to hit it out of the park. That is exactly what Team Hereford has done throughout this pandemic. As the old saying goes, through every challenge arises an opportunity. Through the use of new technology and hard work, both the American Hereford Association (AHA) membership and staff have forged ahead to make FY 2020 a great year. In the last year, the AHA Board of Directors developed a new Commercial Programs committee to focus solely on creating demand and adding value to Hereford genetics for commercial cattlemen. This committee worked to change the parameters of the Hereford Advantage program to make it a third-party verified program (verified through IMI Global), while maintaining added value with superior genetics, health and management requirements. There is plenty of documentation representing the value of this type of program, and we have seen cattlemen from across the country take advantage of this opportunity. In addition to the changes to Hereford Advantage, the AHA started the Hereford Feedout program in partnership with HRC Feed Yards, Scott City, Kan. This program allows producers to retain ownership in cattle, no matter the group size, and to track both feedlot and carcass performance. In March 2020, the AHA staff was mandated by the government of Kansas City to close the office and to work remotely. The staff needs to be commended for making this adjustment and it certainly gave a glimpse of how information and work can be transferred electronically. We continue to see breeders utilize MyHerd with more than 80% of registrations being submitted electronically. The National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) continues to thrive with a very strong and active membership, and these youth and their families proved their resilience and commitment to the breed as they adapted to changes to the 2020 VitaFerm® Junior National Hereford Expo.

It was another great event with great participation and support from everyone involved. Beyond the showring, we continue to see the junior membership understand the importance of the feedlot and packing industries to the long-term sustainability for agriculture. With the support of BioZyme® Inc., the NJHA has added educational components to the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout program. The AHA has been working with Grant Company, St. Joseph, Mo., to build and to expand our opportunities to promote Hereford genetics through a very focused approach. Over the last year, the AHA launched its new campaign, “Come Home to Hereford,” with some very focused messages of how Hereford genetics can add to the bottom line in commercial cow herds. In addition, the AHA has seen growth in services provided through Hereford Publications Inc. such as Herefords On Demand. Breeders are utilizing this online sales tool to promote their programs with the most current information available on their sale animals. Breeders continue to utilize breed improvement tools to make sound breeding decisions. Whole Herd Total Performance Records continues to be the backbone of the strongest genetic evaluation available. Breeders are submitting data, genotyping and utilizing the most comprehensive young sire test program in the industry to identify Hereford genetics that will make a difference. This past year, the genomic component was added to the maternal traits to make those traits even stronger on nonparent animals. The beef industry hit it out of the park despite this difficult curve ball the pandemic threw at us, and the Hereford membership continues to see the rewards of staying committed to a program and making cattle better. The message is clear: “Come Home to Hereford.” — Jack Ward, AHA executive vice president

he progress is undeniable. The potential is unlimited. Cattle producers across the country seek reliable genetics, and many are returning to their Hereford roots.

“Come Home to Hereford” To mark the beginning of fiscal year (FY) 2020, the American Hereford Association (AHA) unveiled its new national advertising campaign, “Come Home to Hereford.” The campaign’s goal is to promote the advantages of Hereford genetics in the marketplace supported through research showing the economic advantages of the breed. The AHA partnered with Grant Company, St. Joseph, Mo., to develop and to grow the campaign.

Marketing tools The AHA provides expanding options to help members market their programs and continues to develop digital resources. Herefords On Demand, a digital production catalog service launched in FY 2019, is connecting breeders from coast to coast to help customers locate animals that fit their specified criteria. The service is a valuable tool for marketing production and private treaty sales of all sizes. In FY 2020, Hereford Publications Inc. (HPI) began researching and developing digital advertising options for Hereford breeders. These digital options complement print advertisement through targeted Facebook campaigns and website advertising services. These marketing efforts helped Hereford producers promote the breed. In FY 2020 Hereford bulls averaged $4,724 and Hereford females $3,562, as reported to the Hereford World by the HPI field staff.

award available to members showing their commitment to going above and beyond collecting whole herd phenotypes and genotypes. To further highlight the strength of the AHA’s genetic evaluation the National Reference Sire Program celebrates 21 years. More than 420 bulls have been tested through this program, building on the AHA’s strong inventory of birth-to-harvest phenotypes. Also, in FY 2020 AHA began a research project, collaborating with David Riley, Ph.D., Texas A&M, and Dorian Garrick, Ph.D., Massey University, New Zealand, to identify genetic markers to predict eye pigment. Previous research suggests markers may exist to assist in predicting an animal’s eye pigment. The AHA looks forward to gaining a better understanding of the genetic markers driving pigmentation in the Hereford breed.

he American Hereford Association (AHA) continues to embrace technology to strengthen the core foundation of its genetic evaluation to provide the strongest breed improvement tools for its members and for the commercial cattle industry. Fiscal year (FY) 2020 marked a historic year within the area of breed improvement as Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) celebrates 20 years of being the backbone of the AHA’s genetic evaluation. Through this robust program, the AHA has collected a very precise and unbiased set of phenotypes to form and to predict an extremely accurate suite of expected progeny differences (EPDs). The AHA currently has more than 115,000 genotypes in its database, up 28% from last fiscal year. These genotypes aid in improving the accuracy of an animal’s EPDs. With this, the AHA upgraded to the high-density GGP 100K chip to continue to identify key genetic markers of interest for continued improvement and research. FY 2020 also marked the first recognition award year for the Platinum TPR breeder recognition. Thirteen breeders from eight states were recognized with the highest performance

Focus on the female In FY 2020 the AHA added the Marker Effects Model (MEM) utilizing Biometric Open Language Tools (BOLT) to our maternal traits to incorporate the genomic information for Sustained Cow Fertility (SCF), Milk (M) and Calving Ease Maternal (CEM) EPDs. This feat was accomplished because of a successful cow herd project that rounded up more than 10,000 female genotypes and the continued effort of breeders who have increased collecting female genotypes in their respective herds. Female genotypes accounted for 57% of the 25,000 genotypes collected in FY 2020. This is definitely a progressive

ith a marketplace proving to be as competitive as ever and a buyer base continuing to demand increased genetic quality and improved health and management practices, enhancements have been made to the American Hereford Association’s (AHA) Hereford Advantage feeder cattle marketing program. Cattlemen using Hereford bulls can now provide value to the marketplace beyond genetic merit through health and management practice documentation and verification. A Beef Quality Assurance certification has also been included as one of the program components, which continues to be an industry-leading program to provide value in the marketplace as well as added buyer and consumer confidence. The program’s genetic component requires a minimum of 50% Hereford genetics, a bull battery ranking in the top 50% of the breed for the CHB$ profit index and transferred ownership. With the credibility of IMI Global’s third-party oversight, the Hereford Advantage is a vehicle to get information to buyers while giving producers using the best genetics and proper management techniques a voice in the marketplace. Over 4,000 head of cattle were enrolled in the program during its first year of including the newly added components. For more information and to get started with enrollment, visit HerefordAdvantage.com.

Hereford Feedout Program To provide producers an opportunity to learn more about their genetic merit and to expand marketing avenues, the AHA has partnered with HRC Feed Yards, Scott City, Kan., to offer the Hereford Feedout Program. Participants in this program will have the ability to collect valuable carcass and performance data, while gaining firsthand experience in the cattle feeding industry. Participating cattle are also given the opportunity to be marketed through an industry-leading U.S. Premium Beef® marketing program as Certified Hereford Beef candidates, giving producers large and small a great avenue to directly connect with the brand. The information gained from this program not only helps the participants to improve their

4 2020 AHA Annual Report

genetic quality, but also helps to strengthen the AHA’s genetic evaluation and expected progeny difference accuracies. In its first year approximately 300 head, representing producers from eight states, were fed through the program.

Feeder cattle marketing The AHA is now offering a unique opportunity for Hereford producers to access more marketing outlets for their feeder cattle through a partnership with S= Cattle Co., a cattle-buying business owned and operated by Nolan Stone and based in Eaton, Colo. AHA field representatives will have the opportunity to locate and source Hereford-based feeder cattle to be marketed through Stone, with the aim to increase marketing avenues for commercial Hereford producers — and drive additional value for the breed. Both parties will also help locate backgrounding opportunities for feeder cattle and will work to organize locations across the country to pull small loads of cattle to get them weaned, vaccinated and sorted into marketable, uniform groups.

Commercial Programs committee formed With an ever-important focus on the Hereford breed’s growth in the commercial industry, the Board of Directors formed the Commercial Programs committee for oversight and guidance of the growing number of commercial programs and marketing tools provided by the American Hereford Association.

he American Hereford Association (AHA) has partnered with industry-leading organizations to provide educational opportunities for members and cattle producers. These partnerships offer the latest information and tools to help operations develop strong animal health and genetic programs.

Health programs

share tips and research on topics ranging from preconditioning, growth implants, antimicrobial stewardship and much more.

Genetic tools AHA members will now have expanded access to expertise from Neogen’s genomics team to make the best use of rapidly evolving genomic tools. Educational opportunities for producers will be available at AHA events and through online resources. There will also be opportunities for junior members to learn about the concept of genomic testing for genetic improvement. These efforts will help Hereford breeders stay current on proper DNA extraction and understand its value for genetic improvement, like utilizing genomicenhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs) to improve sale results, assist in seedstock selection and accelerate breed improvement. The AHA is excited to work with Neogen as advancements are made to the genomic frontier and to evolve with the technology as a team to strengthen the AHA’s genetic evaluation.

Merck Animal Health (known as MSD Animal Health outside the U.S. and Canada) has committed to a five-year partnership with the AHA to educate cattle producers on the importance of animal health programs in maximizing cattle’s genetic potential. Through the partnership, Merck Animal Health will lead educational sessions at the AHA’s Annual Membership Meeting and Conference, as well as at other Association events and online educational opportunities. Look for the latest information on building animal health programs and protocols to improve cattle wellbeing and performance in the “Handle on Health” series in the Hereford World and the “Hereford Health” EDUC ATION section of the Hereford Headlines blog.

his year we celebrate 25 years of providing wholesome, high-quality Certified Hereford Beef ® (CHB) products to consumers nationwide. We also honor Hereford producers for their diligence in continuing to advance the breed. Your management practices give Team Hereford the confidence to believe in and stand behind the integrity of the breed and brand.

Milestones As market dynamics evolve, we can adapt quickly and efficiently to provide tools and resources to support our industry partners in marketing and promoting the brand. We are proud to have the experience and expertise to accommodate the demands of consumers to positively influence the industry. In 2017, the brand created the CHB Premium program which markets an upper two-thirds United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Choice and higher product. This program is a great example of how the brand

Certified Hereford Beef

Premium

has evolved and adapted to consumer demand for a higher-quality product. More than 10 million pounds of product have been distributed into the market through the program since its inception. Through continuous genetic improvement, the CHB brand took a bold leap to elevate the overall quality of the brand. In 2018 after extensive research, it was determined the quality of cattle far surpassed the original USDA Select quality grade standard that was set when the program was established. This once again is a testament to the attention paid by Hereford breeders across the country to improve the performance quality of the Hereford breed. This move to a USDA Choice and higher product added relevance to the brand and has allowed entry into the marketplace as a competitive high-quality beef option for the industry. Even with the changes that have been made, the brand has stayed true to its heritage, story and breed integrity. Because of the improvements made to the brand and the demand that has followed those improvements, added premiums for cattle are now available. These premiums reward producers who are producing high-quality cattle meeting the CHB Premium program requirements. As demand continues to grow, we look forward to seeing an increase in premiums paid to our hard-working Hereford producers. We are encouraged there are additional Hereford brands being introduced into the market today to bring additional awareness to the breed. We are proud to be the leader and pioneer for Hereford branded beef and the foundational brand supporting the dedicated members of the American Hereford Association.

25 years of success In its 25th year, the Certified Hereford Beef® brand has collectively supplied consumers nearly 900 million pounds of beef and harvested more than 7 million head of cattle to supply the brand. We celebrate this milestone as we look to the future for continued growth, innovation and demand for Hereford genetics.

National advertising campaign — This year we began the process to create a national advertising campaign to strategically target specific industry segments to bring awareness to the Certified Hereford Beef brand. This strategic partnership will utilize creative talent, consumer insights and social platform expertise to further the initiative towards brand awareness and drive demand for the CHB brand. Industry partner marketing assets — Providing exceptional customer service is at the forefront of Certified Hereford Beef’s initiative to increase brand awareness. The tools and resources used in the industry to effectively market and promote the brand and breed are updated regularly to accommodate the evolving marketplace. Educational platforms — The CHB team implemented educational programs to elevate

industry partners’ knowledge of the CHB brand and of the beef industry. These experiences provide a platform for personal and professional growth. Meat labs held this past year gave sales professionals firsthand experience in understanding the various cuts derived from the animal and how to market and promote them. The ability to identify and effectively communicate how these muscle cuts can translate into profitability for the end user is invaluable in creating longstanding partnerships. Farm tours also gave sales professionals insight into beef production and an understanding of the life cycle of beef production and how it affects the consumer industry. The addition of a meat scientist to the CHB team has provided additional credibility to training courses that provide long-term, sustainable results to our brand partners.

In closing Celebrating 25 years is a momentous occasion and we are encouraged and inspired by the strides made over the years. We will continue to look to the future on how we can better service the consumer marketplace, better represent the Hereford breed and, more importantly, tell the story of Hereford and the value the breed and brand has in the industry. Cheers to another 25 years of brand innovation and breed advancement!

2020 AHA Annual Report 7

he National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) is a welcoming home for students wanting more. The NJHA along with the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) provides more opportunities for Hereford youth to share their passion for agriculture, develop additional leadership training and grow in their professional development. The future depends on today’s experiences and even amidst social distancing guidelines and a global pandemic, Hereford youth continued to take advantage of scholarship and educational opportunities through the NJHA in fiscal year (FY) 2020. At times, we as an Association had to get creative and think outside the box, but with today’s technology, Hereford youth were able to reap the rewards of their hard work. In spite of all the challenges of 2020, Hereford youth came home to Kansas City, Mo., and gathered this summer at the VitaFerm® Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE), one of the industry’s biggest stages. But it was much more than a cattle show. It was the strength of rural America on display and the commitment of the Hereford breed to the next generation. In total there were 1,082 entries, hailing from 37 states and Canada. More than 8,000 individuals tuned in to Walton Webcasting throughout the week to watch the Hereford shows and the virtual awards ceremonies.

Despite the mandates in place due to COVID-19, the show went on and amidst a shortened schedule and taking some of the week’s events virtual, the Hereford breed will always remember coming home to Hereford and the 2020 JNHE.

Shootout brings education to the forefront BioZyme® Inc. and VitaFerm continued to expand their sponsorship outside the showring to include the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout, and in FY 2020 education was brought to the forefront of this up-andcoming program for Hereford youth. With 111 head of purebred and commercial pens and individual Herefords on feed, contestants expanded their knowledge of the feedlot industry. The comprehensive educational program included a performance portfolio, quizzes and new this year, participants had to complete the online Beef Quality Assurance course to be eligible for the top-five and NJHA Fed Steer Shootout Junior of the Year awards.

Young leadership takes global stage In March, six NJHA members took the journey of a lifetime and traveled to New Zealand to compete in the Young Breeders Competition during the 2020 World Hereford Conference. Team USA brought home a third-place overall finish, just two points shy of second place. A highlight was the team’s first place honors in the presentation module of the competition with a speech about bridging the gap between urban and rural populations. The team’s victory earned the opportunity to share their presentation with the 400 attendees at the World Hereford Conference. This global experience is sure to open doors for future networking opportunities with Hereford breeders and junior members from other countries. 8 2020 AHA Annual Report

Scholarship payouts soar to new heights The scholarship fund is the cornerstone of the HYFA and countless youth are the benefactors of the mission. Scholarship disbursements soared to a whole new level and as HYFA turned the page on FY 2020, scholarships made headlines with an impressive $225,000. This allowed junior members to further their education and to travel abroad and represent the U.S. at the World Hereford Conference. In addition to the travel scholarships, new this year was the inaugural National Hereford Queen scholarship. This was made possible with a joint fundraising effort between the National Hereford Women and HYFA. Last fall, the first MGM/Merry Family Scholarship was awarded to a student pursuing a veterinary degree.

Foundation female nears million-dollar mark The Hereford breed is rich with history and the Lot 1 Foundation Female that headlines the Mile High Night sale in Denver is one of HYFA’s long-standing traditions. In January, PCC New Mexico Lady 8170 sold for $70,000 to benefit HYFA’s Growing a Lasting Legacy Campaign at the Mile High Night Sale during the National Western Stock Show.

The Lot 1 Foundation Female has highlighted the national Hereford sale in Denver for more than a decade and has raised a total of $960,000 to support HYFA’s mission of leadership and education. New Mexico Lady was donated by Pérez Cattle Co., Nara Visa, N.M., and when the gavel fell for the last time, the female was purchased by Whitey and Weyman Hunt of Innisfail Farm, Madison, Ga.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1 — NATURE OF ORGANIZATION

Nature of Operations The American Hereford Association (AHA) is a not-for-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), is a for-profit corporation that provides publication services to Hereford cattle ranches and publishes a magazine periodically. Certified Hereford Beef, LLC (CHB), is a not-for-profit association whose sole member is the AHA. 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. Hereford Legacy Fund, LLC (HLF), is a not-for-profit association whose sole member is the AHA. HLF holds the proceeds from the sale of AHA’s building in 2018 and makes distributions to parent for a portion of its investment income to pay for the rent of the consolidated Association. HLF was formed as a limited liability company on April 12, 2018.

2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AHA and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: HPI, CHB, ABRA, and HLF. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Collectively, the consolidation of AHA, HPI, CHB, ABRA, and HLF 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 reported as follows:

Net Assets Without Donor Restrictions: Net assets in this category are not subject to donor imposed restrictions and may be expended for any purpose in performing the primary objectives of the Association. These net assets may be used at the discretion of the Foundation’s management and the board of directors. Net Assets With Donor Restrictions: Net assets in this category are subject to stipulations imposed by donors. Some donor restrictions are temporary in nature; those restrictions will be met by actions of the Foundation or by the passage of time. Other donor restrictions are perpetual in nature, where by the donor has stipulated the funds be maintained in perpetuity. Donor restricted contributions are reported as increases in net assets with donor restrictions. When a restriction expires, net assets are reclassified from net assets with donor restrictions to net assets without donor restrictions in the statements of activities. The Association has no net assets with donor restrictions. Measure of Operations The consolidated statements of activities report all changes in net assets, including changes in net assets from operating and nonoperating activities. Operating activities consist of those items attributable to the Association’s ongoing animal services and interest and dividends earned on investments. Nonoperating activities are limited to resources that generate return from investments and other activities considered to be of a more unusual or nonrecurring nature.

2020 AHA Annual Report 11

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 consolidated 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 $564,597 and $101,719 were considered to be cash equivalents at August 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are presented at face value, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts and consist of amounts billed for, but not received by year-end for magazine advertising, subscriptions, and member services. 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 may be turned over to a collection agency. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value 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, 2020 and 2019. 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 statements 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 – include 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, 2020 and 2019. 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, agency, 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. Revenue Recognition Revenues from member dues, subscriptions and advertising, and hosting database services are recognized over the term of the contract. The contracts are generally for a term of 1 to 3 years. Subscription and advertising revenue is deferred and included in prepayments for subscription and advertising in the consolidated balance sheets. Revenue is deferred at the time of sale to the customer and is recognized monthly as outlined in the contract. At the end of the subscription period, the remaining balance is recognized as revenue reported as advertising and subscription revenue on the consolidated statements of income. The balances of the prepayments for subscription and advertising revenues were $151,699 and $173,518 for the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Publication and advertising, genetic services, creative services, retail and marketing services are recognized when the service is provided. Effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Association adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 201409, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, Accounting Standards Codification 606). The ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. A five-step model is used to determine the amount and timing of revenue recognized. The ASU also requires expanded disclosures to include disaggregated revenue by geographic regions and major product lines. The Association has elected to not apply the quantitative disaggregation disclosures. There were no significant changes affecting the timing of revenue recognition from the adoption. The Association’s additional disclosures are included in note 13. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straightline method over the estimated useful life of each asset. The estimated useful life of assets ranges from 3 to 30 years for consolidated 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 activities 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

12 2020 AHA Annual Report

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. Leases In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases. This ASU intends to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and by disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Previous to this ASU, entities were allowed to exclude from the balance sheet leases classified as operating leases. This ASU requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. In July 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements, which amended ASU 2016-02 to provide an entity with a transition method for implementing the standard. Under this transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date, and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Association elected to early adopt ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), effective September 1, 2017. 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. Functional Expenses The costs of providing program and other activities have been summarized on a functional basis in the consolidated statements of activities. The presentation of expenses by function and nature is included in the consolidated statements of functional expenses. The Association charges direct expenses incurred for a specific function directly to the program or supporting service category. These costs can be specifically identified as being incurred for the activities of that program or supporting service. Other costs that are incurred by the Association that benefit more than one program or supporting service are allocated on a reasonable basis that is consistently applied. Payroll and related costs are allocated based on estimates of time and effort; other costs including depreciation, certain occupancy and office costs, and consulting are allocated based on estimates of usage or benefit received by each function. The Association reevaluates its allocation method each year to determine if there are adjustments that are necessary to the allocation method based on actual activities conducted during the year. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. The amounts expensed during the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019, were $240,134 and $204,421, respectively. Income Taxes AHA, ABRA, CHB, and HLF are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code, therefore, no provision for federal or state income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. AHA, ABRA, CHB, and HLF are, however, subject to income taxes on any net income from unrelated business activities. AHA, ABRA, CHB, and HLF 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 and state income taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards; deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. HPI includes interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities, if any, in income tax expense. Income tax credits are accounted for by the flowthrough method, which recognizes the credits as reductions of income tax expense in the year utilized. 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. New Accounting Pronouncement Effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Association adopted FASB issued ASU 2018-08, Not-for-Profit Entities – Clarifying the Scope and the Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made. The ASU provides clarification on the determination of whether a resource provider is participating in an exchange transaction and provides a framework for determining whether a resource recipient should account for a transaction as a contribution or as an exchange transaction. The Association has determined that there are no significant changes affecting the timing of revenue recognition from the adoption although the Association has classified and reported member assessments as exchange transactions. Evaluation of Subsequent Events The Association has evaluated subsequent events through October 5, 2020, the date the consolidated financial statements were available for issue.

8 —LONG-TERM DEBT

On April 21, 2020, the Association was granted an unsecured loan from UMB Bank in the amount of $535,600, pursuant to the PPP under Division A, Title I of the CARES Act, which was enacted March 27, 2020. The loan, dated April 21, 2020, matures on April 10, 2022, and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum, payable monthly, commencing on March 21, 2021. The loan may be prepaid by the Association at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Funds from the loan may only be used for payroll costs, costs used to continue group healthcare benefits, mortgage payments, rent, utilities, and interest on other debt obligations incurred before February 15, 2020. Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the loan and accrued interest may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act within the time frame outlined by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Association currently believes that the use of the loan proceeds will meet the conditions for forgiveness of significantly all of the loan. Future maturities of the note payable, if not forgiven, are $179,000 and $356,600 for the years ended August 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively.

The provisions for income taxes consist of the following components: Current Income Tax Expense Benefit (Expense) August 31, 2020 August 31, 2019 $ – $ – Federal State – – City (525) (178)

10 — COLLECTIONS OF ARTWORK

The Association has a collection of artwork, appraised at approximately $639,200 at August 31, 2020 and 2019, 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 consolidated 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 years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019. There were no pieces disposed of during the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019. The Association insures these collections with a policy that has a face value consistent with the appraised values.

11 — CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Association maintains cash on deposit in various financial institutions. Due to the nature of the Association’s cash flow, amounts on deposit in individual banks may temporarily exceed the applicable coverage of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation throughout the year. A majority of the Companies’ business activities are with customers in the cattle industry. Therefore, a substantial portion of their debtors’ ability to honor their commitments is dependent upon the cattle economic sector.

12 — 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, 2020 and 2019, were $93,969 and $104,278, respectively.

13 — REVENUE RECOGNITION

14 — CONTINGENCIES

COVID-19 The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused an economic downturn on a global scale, disrupted global supply chains, and created significant uncertainty, volatility, and disruption across economies and financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic remains a rapidly evolving situation. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and financial results will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak within the markets in which the Company operates and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain.

Quick Conflict Resolution Strategies for Real Life Situations Fast tips to quickly diffuse small conflicts and prevent them from brimming over It’s the season our inboxes and mailboxes are flooded with sale catalogs and notifications for events. I love checking out the cattle, but often, I turn to thinking about the people behind all the glossy photos and nice videos. I think especially about how hard they worked to put material together — and how much they probably argued! Go ahead and admit it; if you are like my husband, Cary, and I — and I’m sure many of you are — working together in the picture pen is sometimes the fastest route to an argument. But, why? For many couples, being together with cattle is one of the little things in life that make it worth living… and make you want to pull out your hair, quit your job or fire your family. This is just one example of a little conflict which left unattended can cause problems, especially when working with employees. Seemingly small matters can morph into very emotional trials or, worse yet, when things get out of hand, it’s not only hurt feelings — employees may quit or even get hurt. This situation is called conflict and while it is not fun, it is natural. The solution is to diffuse conflicts quickly and build a culture in your operation where people learn to work small things out and let them go.

Diffuse conflict, build productive resolutions I was reminded of escalating conflicts when I received a call from Jerry. He was debating whether to fire one or both employees involved in a conflict he could hardly believe was worth mediating — an argument about break times that had blown up into ‘a thing’ causing all kinds of problems,

| November 2020

including a wrecked grain cart and a broken wrist. Jerry relayed how two employees, Ashley and Justin, seemed to pick at each other, always finding fault with something the other did. Evidently, they disagreed on the amount of time that should be spent taking a break during the day and eventually the argument went public; they were seen in heated arguments at the local elevator and then took their disagreement to Facebook, calling each other names and denouncing each other’s work ethic, ability, smarts and more online. The grain cart got wrecked when Ashley was driving a truck and looked down at her phone to see Justin’s latest social media slam, a move which caused her to veer into the ditch and twist up the rig. When Justin and another employee arrived to help pull her out, the two got into such a venomous argument that Justin slammed his hand into the tailgate, denting it and snapping his wrist with the impact! Jerry was appalled, embarrassed actually, that such a simple matter had gone to extremes. The thing about petty conflicts is they undermine trust and respect. Worse, these nuances make the workplace unpleasant, dreadful and less productive. Hopefully your picture pen doesn’t get that rowdy (fortunately ours does not!), but here are some fast tips to quickly diffuse small conflicts and prevent them from brimming over.

Two: Act quickly, but never instantly. As a leader, your essential function is avoiding escalation. Breath and evaluate. Set a time to address the issue and let all parties know when it will be discussed. Often, talking in the morning is best. Three: During the discussion about the conflict, ask and expect each party to explain their position and role in the conflict. No one gets a free pass. Even if one person appears to be clearly in the wrong, the other may have reacted poorly causing the problem to expand like hot air in a balloon. This is the time for behavioral change to begin, if people are willing. Four: Come to an agreement about what change or result from the discussion is needed. Instead of acting as a judge, invite the individuals involved to determine the best path forward. Remember, while most of us don’t like conflict, it can be productive and it doesn’t have to last. Employing a few simple steps can make these your smoothest season yet. Sarah Beth Aubrey is an entrepreneur and founder of Aubrey Coaching and Training. She can be reached at sarah@sarahbethaubrey.com.

One: First consider the topic of disagreement — is it something to be discussed? Could there be a problem with a system or process to fix for the benefit of everyone?

From the Field New Arrival Logan and Stevie Ipsen, along with their daughters, Sterling and Mesa, of New Plymouth, Idaho, announced the arrival of their son, John John Ipsen Mills Ipsen. He was born Aug. 24 weighing 7 lb., 13 oz. and was 20 in. long.

In Celebration

Ron and Nancy Schutte

On Sept. 18, Ron and Nancy Schutte celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. They were married at Calvary Lutheran Church in Rosemont, Neb., where they are still members today. They are the current owners of S&S Polled Herefords, where they have had 47 successful annual production sales with buyers from all over the U.S. Together, Ron and Nancy have raised four children on the S&S ranch: Melissa, Nichole, Amy and Ben. The family has since expanded to include son-in-laws, John T, Brad and John S; and grandchildren, Avery, Trenton, Simon, Lleyton, Evan and Savannah.

In Passing Ronnie K. Johnson, 73, of Beebe, Ark., passed away May 24. He was born to Leonard and Ruby Johnson Aug. 23, 1946, in Ronnie Memphis, Tenn., and was Johnson preceded in death by his wife, Ruth, and brother, Steve. Ronnie was a skilled and knowledgeable cattleman. His many customers relied on his expertise and

| November 2020

guidance in nutrition, breeding, clipping and show preparation, sale consulting, and, his specialty, hoof trimming. He traveled to customers’ farms for clipping, artificial insemination breeding and hoof trimming, and he also exhibited cattle with customers and friends at livestock expositions. While his home base was in central Arkansas, he regularly visited more cattle operations across the U.S. than most people ever see. Often staying in customers’ homes, Ronnie became a trusted advisor who grew into a cherished family friend. He was a kind and thoughtful mentor who took seriously his commitment to cattle producers young and old who sought his counsel on building and maintaining their ranching businesses. The wisdom of beef cattle production, practical working skills and cow sense Ronnie cultivated over a lifetime will be challenging to replace in the lives of countless cattle breeders who valued his proficiency and experience in so many ways. He is survived by son, Mark (Leanne) of Beebe; stepchildren Mike Poe (Holly), Kevin Poe and Dinah Poe of Beebe; granddaughters Hayle, Ashley, Addelyn and Emily; brothers Jerry and Richard; and many friends. Marti Jo (Valek) Wilber, 47, of Belleville, Kan., passed away Sept. 2. Marti was born Sept. 15, 1972, to Eddie and Marcella (Bouley) Valek. Marti Wilber She grew up near Wayne, Kan., the youngest of seven kids (one, Jerry, died at birth). She enjoyed everything about her childhood, working hard alongside her siblings and parents, fishing, hunting, caring for all the critters, cattle shows, harvest, putting bales in the barn by hand (except when Bill chased her with a snake) and watching the sunrise and the sunset. She loved the family God put her in with all her heart. She graduated from Hillcrest in 1991, Cloud County in 1993 (where

she participated in basketball and track) and also attended Kansas State University for a year (where she worked at Nelson’s Hatchery and vaccinated thousands of baby chicks daily). In May 1995, she started working at Hillcrest and continued to work for the school system even after consolidation occurred. She continued to work for USD 109 until fighting cancer became her full-time job. Marti married Dan Wilber in September 1995. They had two children, Cameron and Tobi. At this point, Marti relinquished her place on the tractor seat and began grooming her mothering abilities. She admits to never seeing herself becoming a mother, but God blessed her with two bundles of joy! She loved the outdoors, and the kids were always with her in whatever outside activity was happening. When the kids were in trouble, they did not have a naughty chair — they did laps around the house. So, yes, they can thank Marti for being such good runners in high school and college. As the kids grew older, the activities multiplied. She made a point to attend every activity she could! Of course, she missed some due to cancer and West Nile meningitis, but neighbors and friends sent pictures and videos so she felt part of the event. God, kids, family, cattle, dogs and goats were her passion. She was sprinkled as a child, but baptized by submersion when she was 31. She was an active member of the Central Christian Church, Merry Meadowlarks 4-H Club and the Kansas Hereford family. She will be forever remembered by her husband, Dan; son, Cameron; and daughter, Tobi, of Belleville. Marti is also survived by her sisters, Janis Krob (John) of Cuba and Nancy Erickson (Glenn) of Maysville, Mo.; brothers, Mick Valek (Donna) of Wayne and Bill Valek (Resi) of Wayne; sister-in-laws, Becky Lewis (Craig) of Wichita, Charlotte Sullivan (Blake) of Wichita and Susan Thomas (Zach) of Lawrence; her father and motherin-law, Charles and Ruth Wilber Hereford.org

of Belleville; numerous nieces and nephews; and a host of friends. Elizabeth Rae (Bet) Kettle, 87, passed away Sept. 12. Daughter of Esther and Norman Howard, Bet was born June 20, 1933. She Bet Kettle was wife and partner at San Isabel Ranch to Benjamin W. (Doc) Kettle, and mother and grandmother to five children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Although having no previous experience in ranching when she married Ben, she quickly adapted to the life caring for hundreds of wet baby calves on her back porch during spring calving. One of her favorite times spent with Ben was evening calving checks. She kept all of the pedigree and performance data on 40 years of cow herd genetics. She also processed genetic breeding records for the American Hereford Association (AHA). Hereford cattle were the mainstay of San Isabel Ranch at the time, and together Ben and Bet were recognized nationally for their outstanding genetics and high-quality cattle. She enjoyed the seasonal life of the ranch, including calving, weaning and hours in the saddle on good horses, moving cattle from one pasture to the next. She was an excellent horsewoman and had an accomplished eye to spot outstanding cattle. Bet served for years as the convention committee chairman of the Colorado Cattlemen’s Association, secretary of the Colorado Hereford Association, member of the AHA, secretary of the Colorado Republican Party and president of the Custer County School Board. Bet’s tough, straight-talk, no-excuses philosophy was an asset to any board or committee to which she dedicated her time. For Bet, Tuesdays were always “no-cow-work” days at the ranch. She would dress in her “Sunday best” and spend the afternoons in a mean game of bridge with lifelong friends. Bet loved people in a big way. She had such a good heart and fierce convictions — her legacy of that good heart and feisty spirit shall remain through her children for generations to come. Hereford.org

Lilla Hunter Bell, 82, of Paradise Valley, Nev., passed away Sept. 17. Lilla and her twin brother, Bob, were born June 12, 1938, in San Lilla Bell Francisco to Phelps and Lilla Hunter. Her sisters, Beth and Pat, followed a few years later. Lilla spent much of her early years on the family ranch near Hollister where she found immense joy caring for and raising animals. Lilla was active in 4-H at an early age raising and showing Hereford cattle. She also had a deep love for corgis, breeding and showing them throughout the years. Lilla was a pioneer in the agricultural industry. She received a Bachelor’s of Science in animal husbandry from California Polytechnic (Cal Poly) State University in San Luis Obispo. Lilla was the first woman to graduate from Cal Poly’s animal science program. She also achieved incredible success on the college’s livestock judging team and was the first woman on a champion collegiate judging team. In later years, she served on the American Polled Hereford Association’s (APHA) board of directors. Lilla was the first and only woman to serve as chairman for the APHA board. She played an integral part in the AHA merger. As a result of her contributions and lifelong support of the breed, she was inducted into the Hereford Hall of Fame in 2012. Lilla and Woodie were married in 1960 and had three sons together: Dean (Nikki), John (Jhona) and Dan (Theresa). Lilla loved and cared for her boys deeply. They rejuvenated her interest in the Hereford breed as the boys joined 4-H and started breeding heifers to show. She loved watching her boys compete in high school, college and professional rodeo. Lilla’s seven grandchildren, Dawson, Lilla “Lilly,” Trase, Quint, Cade, Shane and Carly, also raised and showed Hereford cattle in 4-H. Lilla gifted each of her grandchildren a Hereford heifer to foster the joy she had felt for raising Herefords over the years. During the time her grandchildren were showing cattle, Lilla served as an advisor for the Paradise Valley 4-H Beef Club and sat on the Humboldt County Show

and Sale Committee. Lilla enjoyed taking drives through the fields at the Bell Ranch. She was an accomplished photographer and a world-class cook. She was one of the kindest souls this world has ever known. Wayne L. Sage, 81, of Ogden, Ill., passed away Sept. 18. Wayne was born May 26, 1939, in Compromise Township, the son of Wayne Sage Fred and Reka (Albers) Sage. He married Roxie Schweineke Oct. 15, 1961, in Broadlands. She survives. He is survived by his children, Sandra Lynne (Bill) Whalen of Crane, Mo., SueAnn Denise (Jim) Billimack of Metamora and Kevin Wayne (Lisa) Sage of Ogden; nine grandchildren, Emily (Cody) Scott, Rachel (Caleb) Gibbens, Mitchell (Haley) Billimack, Grant Billimack, Sydney Billimack, Janssen Sage, Jo Hannah Sage, Michael Sage and Olivia Sage; brothers, Darold (Millie) Sage of Venice, Fla., and Myron Sage of Gifford; sister, Donna (Carl) Beard of Tavares, Fla.; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. He was a member of the AHA and the Illinois Hereford Association (IHA). He was named the Illinois Hereford Man of the Year by the IHA, received the Illinois Golden Breeder Award and was honored as a National Junior Hereford Association Advisor of the Year. Wayne was a lifelong farmer and was named the Champaign County Young Farmer of the Year in 1970. He also worked as a St. Joseph rural mail carrier for many years. Joe J. Cottle, 88, of Summersville, W.Va., passed away Sept. 24. Joe was in partnership with his brother, Martin Cottle, to form Cottle Joe Cottle Bros. Polled Herefords. In the past decade, he continued to be active in a partnership with his grandson, Neil Litton as Cottle Bros./ Litton Livestock.
