2013 Brant Farms Genetic Balance Sale

From our Families to Yours...Welcome to our 9th Annual Sale!

Once again it is an honor and pleasure to welcome you to our 9th Annual Genetic Balance Sale.

Please come for a fun filled morning and afternoon complete with coffee and donuts along with Wendy and Vicki’s famous lunch. The sale will be held at my farm in Hinckley, Minnesota starting at 12 noon.

With the national cow herd being at an all time low, it is a good time to increase your numbers and improve your genetics with efficient, high performing Simmental and Sim-Angus cattle.

This year’s offering is dominated by an excellent set of young Simmental and Sim-Angus cows boasting a fancy heifer or a stout bull calf at side. There are five halter broke show heifers awaiting their new owner and summer fair time. They come Red, Black and Sim-Angus. John Boy has done an excellent job getting a stout set of bulls conditioned and ready to go to work.

The Accelerated/Brant Farms Top Fuel bull and our battery of donors have numerous sons and daughters selling. A select group of ET calves with their recip dams are included in this years offering.

If you need to leave your cattle at the farm for a few days, don’t hesitate to ask. Just like we’ve done in the past, Brant Farms will be accommodating. We appreciate your interest in our cattle, are pleased to hear they are working in your programs and thank you for your support.

A big THANKS goes out to John Boy and his crew at BRANT FARMS for working hard and smart.

All of us guys here at the farm thank Julie for being the Performance Advocate that is True to this Cow Herd and for keeping records and cataloging this great set of cattle. A special THANK YOU to my wife, children and grandkids for their support and inspiration as Brant Farms continues to grow and expand.

I urge interested buyers to make plans to view the sale cattle on Friday or stop by the farm any time prior to Wednesday. Visitors are always welcome. If you have any questions regarding the cattle on this sale, contact myself, John Von Rueden, one of the sale consultants or our sale Manager, Val Eberspacher.

Sincerely,

Ron & Vicki

Win a HAY RING FEEDER!

Brant Farms will give away ONE HAY RING FEEDER at the end of the sale. One lot number will be pulled out and the buyer of that lot will win a hay feeder.

You must be present at sale to win.

Dear Friends and Fellow Cattlemen: As I sit down to write this letter, I reflect back on what a ride the last year has been. Cattle numbers are as low as they have been since the 50’s resulting in higher fat cattle prices. With input costs also rising, it becomes even more important to use quality genetics to increase your bottom line. At Brant Farms we are dedicated to producing efficient, functional cattle that will perform.

We have put together another great set of cattle for your appraisal. This year’s bull offering is fantastic.

Black or red, these bulls are stout. They have been semen tested and are ready to hit the pastures and go to work this spring. I have worked closely with our nutritionist to develop these bulls to their fullest potential without over conditioning them. Our bulls sell with built in longevity that will perform.

The females we have assembled this year are great. There is a tremendous amount of quality in this offering. You will have the opportunity to select first calf heifers with an A.I. sired calf, mature cows raising ET calves, fall bred heifers and fancy opens. There is a female to suit everyone’s needs.

I would like to thank my crew; they are always willing to go the extra mile to get things done. You guys are truly appreciated. A special thanks to Julie for everything she does and Ron and Vicki for the opportunity to work with this great herd of cattle. Foremost; I would like to thank my family, you are my anchor.

Please do not hesitate to call Ron or myself with any questions.

Sincerely,

John Von Rueden

• Lady walks in the footsteps of her full sister BRANT X3405, last’s year high selling female with a valuation of $11,000.00.

• This beautifully uddered heifer is doing a great job raising her black blaze faced Make It Rain heifer calf.

• This is a total outcross package. This young cow has excellent EPDs in the top 10% to 15% of the breed.

• I knew the moment she was on the 2011 sale, I was going to buy her. The guys made me promise if she was clipped and pictured I would not change my mind.

• Jazzy Simmental would like to reserve a flush at seller’s expense and the buyer’s convenience. OR, if preferable to the new owner, we could flush immediately after the sale to a mutually agreed upon sire and split the resulting transferable embryos. Shortly thereafter, I would deliver the cow/calf pair and frozen embryos.

Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.

Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score.

First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described to the left, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed.

Explanation of ASA’s New EPD Evaluations Presenting Fall 2012 EPDs on a NEW BASE: The Fall 2012 ASA Genetic Evaluation marks the first time major breeds have expressed their EPDs on a common base (i.e., the same scale). The common base was a natural evaluation of the RAAA/ASA genetic evaluation partnership. Though forming a common base will initially lead to some confusion, the boards of both organizations unanimously agreed that it was a positive step for the beef industry – a step that allows producers to directly compare genetic predictions from the largest multi-breed database in the world.

As with any progress, there is change. Breeders and commercial producers will need to adjust to the new base. Much like converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius, it may be a struggle at first, however, over time we will all grow accustomed to the new scale. For example, look at the average EPDs of purebreds shown in this table to the right.

The changes to the base does not change the evaluation of animals; it just changes the magnitude of the EPD. It has the same impact on all animals. Be sure to use the new percentile tables to develop a “feel” for the new EPD base.
