DaKitch Farms 2023 Bull & Female Sale

Dear Friends,

Welcome to our 9th Annual DaKitch Farms "Our Brand is your Success" Production sale. We are so grateful for your interest and humbled by the support we have received from our loyal customers, friends and family. Over the years our focus has always stayed the same, to produce quality, affordable genetics that will positively influence the bottom line for the commercial cattleman. Our program doesn’t follow fads or trends, rather we use genetics that produce high performing bulls, steers and heifers that keep the commercial cattle man in business. Whether your operation needs a calving ease high maternal sire or a high growth more terminal carcass sire, you will find a strong selection of exceptional quality potential herd sires that will fill your needs.

All bulls have had ultrasound measurements taken for rib eye size, marbling and back fat. Data will be available online and at the sale. The bulls will be fertility tested with scrotal measurements taken. The entire bull offering has been DNA tested and has GE-EPDS, This is like having EPD from the animal that would include 25 progeny for calving ease, weaning weight and yearling weight, and 22 birth weight measurements, obviously improving the accuracy of the EPD you are selecting for.

The female line-up is stacked with young females from the heart of our program. If you know us we don’t give up too many females. This is our largest female offering to date! So here is your opportunity to obtain genetics that contain generations of the DaKitch prefix.

Everyone is welcome to come and view the cattle anytime prior to the sale. We hope to see you all at the sale. If you can’t make it be sure to register early with DvAuction if you are interested in viewing and bidding with this method.

We look forward to being your seed stock source of good quality Angus and Hereford cattle.

Sincerely,

Matthew D. Kitchell

Understanding Angus Expected Progeny Differences

Calving Ease Direct (CED) is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers.

Birth Weight EPD (BW) expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Weaning Weight EPD (WW) expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Yearling Weight EPD (YW) expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Scrotal Circumference EPD (SC) expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires.

Maternal Milk EPD (MILK) is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed in his daughters compared to daughters of other sires. In other words, it is that part of a calf’s weaning weight attributed to milk and mothering ability.

Marbling EPD (MARB) expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

Rib-eye Area (REA) expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in rib-eye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

Fat Thickness EPD (FAT) expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M) an index, expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences from conception to weaning with the underlying breeding objective assuming that individuals retain their own replacement females within herd and sell the rest of the cull female and all male progeny as feeder calves. The model assumes commercial producers will replace 25% of their breeding females in the first generation and 20% of their breeding females in each subsequent generation.

Beef Value ($B) a terminal index, expressed in dollars per carcass, to predict profitability differences in progeny due to genetics for post weaning and carcass traits. This terminal index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot phase and market these animals on a carcass grid.

Combined Value ($C) an index, expressed in dollars per head, which includes all traits that make up both Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M) and Beef Value ($B) with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid. Expected progeny differences (EPDs) directly influ-encing a combined index: calving ease direct (CED) and maternal (CEM), weaning weight (WW), yearling weight (YW), maternal milk (Milk), heifer pregnancy (HP), docility (DOC), mature cow weight (MW), foot angle (Angle), claw set (Claw), dry matter intake (DMI), marbling (Marb), carcass weight (CW), rib-eye area (RE) and fat thickness (Fat).

Genetic selection tools can go a long way in helping you choose your next bull. All bulls have been DNA tested with genomic enhanced EPD’s. In an effort to help you streamline your search, we have pulled out several economically important, highly heritable traits that we use in bull selection. Full pedigrees and EPD profiles can be found on www.angus.org using the animals registration number. If we can be of any assistance to you as you make your way through the catalog, we would love to help you any way we can.

Driving the science of better breeding

There’s little room for error in the cattle business. Producers need the most advanced information to make smart selection decisions, and Angus Genetics Inc. (AGI) provides it through genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs).

GE-EPDs have become the industry standard for herd improvement, building on decades of science-backed genetic evaluation tools originated and maintained through the American Angus Association®, home to the largest and ever-growing single-breed beef cattle database.

EPDs that traditionally contained all pedigree, performance and progeny information now also include results from available genomic, or DNA, tests. Breeders who use genomic technology give buyers access to AGI-generated GE-EPDs that provide:

Increased predictability and decreased risk for young and unproven animals due to enhanced accuracy of EPDs

Better characterization of genetics for difficult-to-measure performance traits (such as carcass traits, maternal traits and feed efficiency)

The ability to make more rapid progress for traits that are important to you, due to:

·  more accurate selection

·  easier identification of genetic outliers

·  the ability to propagate young animals with confidence earlier in their lives

In fact, GE-EPDs on unproven animals have the same amount of accuracy as if they have recorded an average of 15 progeny, depending on the trait. That’s valuable insight, offered regularly through the breed’s weekly national cattle evaluation.

How do you know if EPDs are genomic-enhanced?

Ask your breeder, refer to the registration paper, or look for the AGI GE-EPD logo, Angus GS TM powered by partner Neogen or the HD50k by partner Zoetis. These images indicate animals for which genomic testing has been conducted and incorporated by AGI into GE-EPDs

The Power of Genomically Enhanced EPDs

The American Hereford Association (AHA) has embraced the use of genomics into their genetic evaluation by launching a first of its kind single step analysis that utilizes the marker effects of specific traits. Likewise, AHA is directly estimating accuracy values rather than approximating. The direct estimation of accuracy results in a more conservative value but a more accurate value than previous methodologies. The AHA is producing the most reliable genetic evaluation that is supported by Whole Herd TPR™ and genomics, which will give prospective buyers added confidence in purchasing young and unproven animals.

Buying animals that have a genomic profile incorporated into their Expected Progeny Difference (EPD) offers many advantages that allow for quicker breed and herd improvement. Below is a table showing the average increase in accuracy when buying a young animal with a Genomic Enhanced EPD (GE-EPD) versus an animal without a GE-EPD. Similarly, an effective progeny number increase is listed by trait that shows how many progeny equate to a genomic enhancement of a young animal (e.g. yearling). That’s right, buying a young animal that has been genotyped is like having 2-17 progeny, depending on the trait. The proof gained on young, non-parent animals, through a genomic enhancement is valuable and greatly mitigates the risk and allows for more directed selection.

Each animal tested is recognized with the AHA GE-EPD logo.

* Effective Progeny Number Increase (EPNI)- EPNI is the difference gained for genotyped animals versus non-genotyped animals.

Understanding Hereford Expected Progeny Differences

Calving Ease Direct (CE) is based on calving ease scores and birth weights and is measured on a percentage. CE EPD indicates the influence of the sire on calving ease in females calving at 2 years of age. For example, if sire A has a CE EPD of 6 and sire B has a CE EPD of -2, then you would expect on average sire A’s calves would be born with an 8% more likely chance of being unassisted when compared to sire B’s calves.

Birth Weight EPD (BW) is an indicator trait for calving ease and is measured in pounds. For example, if sire A has a BW EPD of 3 and sire B has a BW EPD of 6, then you would expect on average, sire B’s calves would come 3 lb. heavier at birth when compared to sire A’s calves. Larger BW EPDs usually, but not always, indicate more calving difficulty.

Weaning Weight EPD (WW) is an estimate of pre-weaning growth that is measured in pounds. For example, if sire A has a WW EPD of 70 and sire B has a WW EPD of 50, then you would expect on average sire A’s calves would weigh 20 lb. heavier at weaning when compared to sire B’s calves.

Yearling Weight EPD (YW) is an estimate of post-weaning growth that is measured in pounds. For example, if sire A has a YW EPD of 100 and sire B has a YW EPD of 70, then you would expect on average sire A’s calves would weigh 30 lb. heavier at a year of age when compared to sire B’s calves.

Maternal Milk EPD (MILK) the milking ability of a sire’s daughters is expressed in pounds of calf weaned. It predicts the difference in average weaning weights of sires’ daughters’ progeny due to milking ability. Daughters of the sire with a 30 MM EPD should produce progeny with 205-day weights averaging 15 lb. more (as a result of greater milk production) than daughters of a bull with a 15 MM EPD.

Maternal Milk & Growth (M&G) reflects what the sire is expected to transmit to his daughters for a combination of growth genetics through weaning and genetics for milking ability. It is an estimate of daughters’ progeny weaning weight. A bull with a 29 lb. M&G EPD should sire daughters with progeny weaning weights averaging 19 lb. heavier than progeny of a bull’s daughters with a M&G EPD of 10 lb. (29 minus 10 = 19 lb.). It is equal to one-half the sire’s weaning weight EPD, plus all of his MM EPD. No accuracy is associated with this since it is simply a mathematical combination of two other EPDs.

Rib Fat (FAT) reflects differences in adjusted 365-day, 12thrib fat thickness based on carcass measurements of harvested cattle. Sires with low, or negative FAT EPDs are expected to produce leaner progeny than sires with higher EPDs. Ultrasound measures are also incorporated into this trait and have been shown to be highly correlated with the performance of slaughter progeny. All data is expressed on a carcass scale.

Rib-eye Area (REA) reflect differences in an adjusted 365-day rib-eye area measurement based on carcass measurements of harvested cattle. Sires with relatively higher REA EPDs are expected to produce better-muscled and higher percentage yielding slaughter progeny than will sires with lower REA EPDs. Ultrasound measurements are also incorporated into this trait and have been shown to be highly correlated with the performance of slaughter progeny.

Marbling EPD (MARB) reflect differences in an adjusted 365-day marbling score (intramuscular fat, [IMF]) based on carcass measurements of harvested cattle. Higher MARB EPDs should produce slaughter progeny with a higher degree of IMF and therefore higher quality grades. Ultrasound measurements are also incorporated into this trait and have been shown to be highly correlated with the performance of slaughter progeny.

Baldy Maternal Index ($BMI) a maternally focused index that is based on a production system that uses Hereford x Angus cross cows. Progeny of these cows are directed towards Certified Hereford Beef. This index has significant weight on Sustained Cow Fertility, which predicts fertility and longevity of females. There is a slightly positive weight on Weaning Weight, Mature Cow Weight and Milk which accounts for enough growth but ensures females do not increase inputs. Also, but a positive weighting on Carcass Weight which is anticipated to provide profitability from finishing of non-replacement. Females and castrated males. Marbling and Rib-eye Area are also positively weighted to keep the harvested progeny successful for CHB. This index is geared to identify Hereford bulls that will be profit- able when used in a rotational cross with mature commercial Angus cows.

Certified Hereford Beef Index ($CHB) is a terminal sire index that is built on a production system where Hereford bulls are mated to mature commercial Angus cows and all progeny will be targeted for Certified Hereford Beef after the finishing phase. This index has significant weight on Carcass Weight to ensure profit on the rail. As well there is a positive weighting for Average Daily Gain along with a negative weighting on Dry Matter Intake to ensure efficient pounds of growth in the finishing phase. Keep in mind, this production system takes advantage of complimentary breeding with the commercial Angus cow. Although Marbling is weighted positively in this index, a positive weighting for Rib-eye Area and a negative weighting for Back Fat are a greater priority in this index to allow for optimum end-product merit.

Ratios are based on contemporary groups. Average within the group would be a 100 ratio. 110 would be 10% higher than average. Generally, a lower ratio = smaller

Homozygous Polled These bulls have a 99.99% probability of being homozygous polled, having been verified through DNA testing. All calves from these sires will be polled

Heterozygous (Hetro) Polled These bulls are polled but carry one polled gene and one horned gene, therefore, they may sire horned calves when mated to horned cows or other heterozygous polled cows.
