Ankony Quality and Integrity since 1935

Friends & Angus breeders, We are excited to invite you to join us in Clarkesville, Ga, on Thursday, September 26, 2019 for our second annual “Only the Tops” Ankony Farms Angus sale. In our humble opinion, this is the most unique set of Angus females ever offered in the breed. If they were at any other sale, we would be figuring out how we could buy them—all of them! Unlike any other females ever offered, these 29 females lead the breed on the key indexes that predict profitability—$Combined and $Profit.

It is abundantly apparent to us that Angus breeders must focus on propagating the very best animals. Like begets like, and you cannot produce animals that will be future leaders without starting with animals that are at the top. If in doubt, just study lot 1 in this offering. These elite females will produce the herd sires and the donors of the future. These females will drive enormous value to commercial cow/ calf ranchers, feeders, and packers in integrated supply chain models. These animals will become the cornerstone of the Angus breed.

The marketplace signals are very clear—the demand for high quality beef is stronger than ever and growing rapidly. With our new alliance with FPL Food® and Châtel Farms®, we will see clear value signals to seedstock producers and cow/calf producers that can hit the target. There is no question that these Ankony genetics will hit that high-quality Angus beef market. $Profit will be used to select the genetics that fill the FPL Food supply chain.

Steers sired by higher $Profit bulls will bring back premiums to cow/calf producers. They, in turn, will pay more for bulls. This is will drive the entire Angus seedstock market in the southeastern region.

We welcome you to join us at Ankony Farms for good hospitality, good friends, and good cattle. We hope to see you in September.

Sincerely,

Virgil Lovell Virgil Lovell Owner, Ankony Farms

Prior to the Ankony sale, an educational seminar will be held at 10 a.m. on Sept. 26. This will be an opportunity for commercial ranchers and seedstock breeders to hear from François Léger directly about the FPL/Châtel programs (See page 4). Leachman said the seminar will discuss important drivers for commercial producers. “We are going to help them better understand $Profit and better understand how selecting for this index will improve their profitability and build better beef cows, but we are also going to talk about the opportunity for them to be part of this high-quality value chain and earn premiums based on that participation.”

Lovell said that the seminar will be a good opportunity for cattlemen who haven’t necessarily followed the fast pace of reproduction and genomics, but want to have quality animals and sell into a food chain for higher returns.

New Opportunity Offers Southeastern Ranchers

More Profit, Less Risk

A unique partnership gives Southeastern cattlemen a pasture-to-plate opportunity The winds of opportunity are blowing through the Southeast, and at the heart of the whirlwind is a new partnership providing a win-win situation for beef producers.

Meat packer and feeder François Léger is building a conception-to-consumption supply chain of high-quality, Angus beef.

On the genetic side, he is teaming up with long-time cattlemen Virgil Lovell and Lee Leachman of Ankony Farms in Clarkesville, Ga. To supply the product, the team is seeking cattlemen within a 600-mile radius of Augusta, Ga., to set up multiplier herds that could deliver several thousand calves per week into the FPL Food’s/Châtel Farms’® system.

A French Farmer Brings a Rare Perspective to the U.S. Meat Industry FPL Food’s and Châtel Farms’ owner François Léger grew up in France on a beef, pork and poultry farm, where he learned the intricacies of how each species was raised. One of the youngest of a family of 10 kids, Léger knew he couldn’t stay on the farm, so he took a position in a beef plant. From carrying meat on his shoulder to boning, he worked his way through the ranks at the plant before working with two different French retailers to gain additional training. He then began an 18-year career with Keystone Foods, which took him to Australia and South America before bringing him to the United States.

In 2004, Léger acquired the processing facility in Augusta, Ga., from Keystone Foods, and founded FPL Food. FPL grew to become the largest family-owned processor of fresh beef products and ground beef selections in the region. Léger is now designing plans to streamline and modernize the plant to accommodate the new product line.

In 2011, Léger started Châtel Farms at Reidsville, Ga., to maintain supply for FPL Food. He expanded the farm with three stateof-the-art, environmentally-conscious barns to feed out cattle for the plant with forage and silage grown onsite.

Léger’s involvement on the processing side of the beef industry lends him a more direct line of communication with consumers than most ranchers, and he is intensely listening.

“What the beef industry is lacking today is transparency at both the producer side and the retailer end,” Léger said. “We can’t 4

®

produce what we want to produce and force it through the chain to the consumer. We have to produce what the consumer wants.”

Léger said consumers increasingly want to know what they are eating. “One hundred years ago, most of the population was from a farm and agriculture,” he added. “Sixty years ago, we started talking about people having less connection to the farm, but people still had grandparents or cousins that farmed. Today, people have no connection to the farm. They have food on their plates without knowing how it was produced.”

“The customer wants high-quality beef and they don’t want to be disappointed,” he said. “To get high-quality beef, you need consistent, high marbling, tender, flavorful meat.”

To satisfy this customer demand, Léger developed True to Nature™, a brand that will soon be available in retail outlets. Châtel Farms® Angus Beef, is the high-quality signature line of FPL’s Never Ever Angus brand, True to Nature™, an all-natural, no-hormone, no antibiotic beef product that is born, raised and processed in the Southeast. Léger’s aim is to improve efficiencies and expand production, to eventually make the quality product available to consumers across the Southeastern states.

Joining Cattlemen with the Meat Company “It’s obvious that I cannot make this product alone,” Léger said.

“We need the help of ranchers to develop a supply chain in the Southeast.”

To supply the brand with superior, traceable genetics, Léger is announcing a new partnership with Ankony Farms. Léger chose

“We need the help of ranchers to develop a supply chain in the Southeast.”

From left, François Léger of FPL Food & Châtel Farms, Augusta, Ga., is announcing a new partnership with Virgil Lovell of Ankony Angus, Clarkesville, Ga., to build a conception-to-consumption supply chain of high-quality, Angus beef in the Southeast.

to partner with Ankony because of the ranch’s reputation for carcass traits and outstanding marbling and its location in the Southeast. He searched the country for the best partner for his branded beef line and found a common root—many of the best Angus herds traced back to Georgia’s own Ankony genetics.

Another allure to the Ankony herd was their use of an index called $Profit.

The $Profit index was developed by Lee Leachman, who took his economics degree and third-generation cattle background to develop a birth-to-harvest index that evaluates more than 20 financially important traits and boils it down to a value that indicates the difference in profitability that will be generated between bulls in your herd. The 15-year-old index has evaluated more than 1.1 million head in the Leachman database. “$Profit finds the animal that simultaneously improves the quality of your cowherd while increasing the quality of your feedlot and slaughter cattle in a balance closer to what most ranchers want,” Leachman said. The index helps identify cattle with traits that are usually antagonistic, such as maternal ability and carcass merit. “Combining animals that excel at those antagonistic factors is really important when you are trying to build a supply chain from the commercial herd to the consumer,” he said.

The index is simple for cattlemen to use. With an assumption that a bull will have 100 calves, a rancher can determine the difference between Bull A with a $Profit value of 25,000 and Bull B with a 20,000 value to be a $5,000 difference, or $50/calf on those 100 calves, Leachman said.

The results are already apparent in the Ankony herd. Ankony’s use of the $Profit matings propelled the herd to produce a significant percentage of the top 50 non-parent females in the United States in the EPD re-calibration performed by the American Angus Association in June. This included the #1 and #3 non-parent females on the $Combined Angus index that is slated for release in 2020.

With the new partnership in mind, Lovell said Ankony is now striving to produce a volume of bull pregnancies from these top-performing females that will be mated to the highest carcass trait Angus bulls.

These bulls will then be leased or sold to multiplier herds with the intention of putting a buy back contract in place with Châtel Farms for the calves produced by these bulls. After agreeing to breed a certain number of cows, the multiplier herd will sell back the resulting calves to the program for a premium. Premiums from the buyback are expected to all but pay for the cost of the bulls for the rancher. Ranchers will also have the option to retain ownership of the calves.

To get started, Châtel Farms will evaluate a commercial

cow herd’s genetic merit using historical data and DNA. Once the contract is set up, Châtel Farms will have Ankony bulls available for immediate turnout. Given the intended size of the supply chain, Châtel and Ankony are encouraging other Angus breeders to produce high $Profit bulls. Ankony Farms will offer eligible genetics at its upcoming sale on Sept. 26. A “who’s who” of elite cow families will be offered at the sale, and will represent cattle in the top one-tenth to one percent of the Angus breed for $Profit.

Prior to the Ankony sale, an educational seminar will be held at 10 a.m. on Sept. 26. This will be an opportunity for commercial ranchers and seedstock breeders to hear from François Léger directly about the FPL/Châtel programs. Leachman said the seminar will discuss important drivers for commercial producers. “We are going to help them better understand $Profit and better understand how selecting for this index will improve their profitability and build better beef cows, but we are also going to talk about the opportunity for them to be part of this high-quality value chain and earn premiums based on that participation.”

Lovell said that the seminar will be a good opportunity for cattlemen who haven’t necessarily followed the fast pace of reproduction and genomics, but want to have quality animals and sell into a food chain for higher returns.

The Win-Win Benefits for Southeastern Cattlemen The program offers Southeastern ranchers a unique opportunity to build equity in the future of their business, while minimizing some of the risks they have normally faced.

This program brings fed cattle back to the Southeast, Leger said. “There’s no reason why we cannot feed these cattle in the Southeast. The goal is to produce the best beef and to avoid sending the cattle to the Midwest, avoiding shrink and freight, which is a more sustainable approach. Our supply chain will satisfy consumer preferences for more locally raised beef.”

Lovell added, “This opportunity is perfect for ranchers in the Southeast who want to produce a quality product and make more with their cattle by taking them to a higher level of production and efficiency. The program will give breeders a peace of mind that someone wants to buy their cattle or joint venture with them.”

If you would like more information about this exclusive partnership opportunity, make plans to attend the educational seminar and Angus female sale held at Ankony Farms in Clarkesville, Ga., on Sept. 26. More information about the event will be posted at ankonyfarms.com. For more information about the $Profit index, visit leachman.com or call Lee Leachman at (970) 219-8519. —ANKONY

A New Paradigm for Enhancing Angus Value Understanding Ankony $Profit, $Ranch and $Feedlot

We believe $PROFIT is the most proven and consistent tool available to predict profitability from conception to consumption.

…$Profit selects for good growth, moderate frame, lower feed intake, less energy requirement, good ribeye, average fat, and very high marbling.

6

How $Ranch and $Profit compare to $M, $B, and $C Today, ranchers have too much data to study. Considering that 26 traits are predicted with Angus EPDs, buying the best animal has become very confusing. We have actual weights, adjusted weights, ratios, and then a host of EPDs and indexes, plus genomic rankings. The challenge is figuring out how each of those traits is going to impact your bottom line. The goal of every breeding program should be to identify and propagate the animals that make the most profit—unfortunately, we often end up guessing which animal that will be.

Back in 2005, Leachman Cattle started working with the BIO group out of Canada.

Utilizing a simulation model, partially developed by Dr. Steve Miller (the current Director of Genetic Research at AGI), BIO calculated financial models that predicted the relative profitability of animals from birth to market. Since 2005, Leachman’s have calculated and selected for profit using BIO’s simulation model to predict $Ranch® and $Profit®. Through test herds, cooperator herds, and feedlot performance data—the $Profit system has been proven to work extremely well.

How $Profit works $Profit assumes that the average commercial bull will have 100 progeny over its lifetime. Let’s compare a bull with a $15,000 $Profit score to a bull with a $8,000 $Profit score (the average 2018-born Angus bull).

The predicted difference between the bulls is $7,000 or about $70 per calf over the 100 calves. While females will not have the same number of progeny—their prediction is calculated the same way. The model assumes that you keep 30% of your heifers and that you retain ownership on the remainder and sell the finished animals on a carcass grid. We calculate two other indexes—$Ranch and $Feedlot. $Ranch looks at the relative profit if you sell the calves at weaning—this is the maternal side of the equation. $Feedlot is much like $Beef and just looks at the terminal traits after wean-

AnkonyFarms.com | 706.754.6000

ing. $Profit looks at the complete cycle, from birth to harvest, and assumes you retain ownership all the way to harvest.

What traits are included in $Profit $Profit includes nearly every trait that impacts profitability. The effect of most traits on profit is fairly simple to understand. Here is the list of what is included: Revenue Traits » Calving ease = more calves » Weaning & yearling EPDs = more weight » Fertility (days to conception) = more weight & more calves » Carcass weight = worth more up to 1050 lbs. » Marbling = valued based on the grid premiums » Ribeye area = value as impacts yield grade » % Retail Product = more yield Cost Traits » Cow feed intake = more intake costs more » Feedlot feed efficiency = cost of gain Some traits are not so easily characterized as more-is-better for $Profit. Milk, for example, is a good thing until you get too much.

In the $Profit model, each pound of milk EPD over +25 has a more negative effect on fertility than it has a positive effect on weaning weight. There are a few traits not yet included in $Profit: animal health, structure, and disposition. These traits are important but difficult to express in dollars.

How $Ranch and $Profit compare to $M, $B, and $C One of the best ways to assess the usefulness of an index is to study where it will take you in the future. To see this, you simply need to look at the animals that rank at the top of the breed on that index. Both $M and $Ranch attempt to predict the profitability of a commercial cow/calf operation. If we study the top 20 proven sires on $M, we see that they have the following average EPDs: » +108 YW ranks in the top 30% » +.76 DMI ranks in the lowest 80% » +30 Milk ranks in the top 20% From this, we see that the $M index will point us towards more growth, more milk, and cattle that eat a lot of feed (with Dry Matter Intake more than 90% of the breed).

In contrast, our $Ranch index selects for moderate sized cows with high weaning growth, smaller mature size, good fleshing ability, breed average milk, and lower feed intake. We think that most commercial ranchers would find the highest $Ranch cows to be more profitable than the highest $M cows.

Today, many Angus breeders select almost exclusively for the Angus $Beef ($B) index.

However, $B is a terminal index and only selects for post weaning traits that affect feedlot and packer profitability. In contrast, $Profit looks at all of the maternal traits plus the terminal traits. If we study the top 20 proven sires on $B, we see that they have the following average EPDs: » » » »

+2.5 BW ranks heavier than 75% +80 WW ranks in the top 2% +147 YW ranks in the top 1% +1.0 DMI ranks in the worst 90%

» » » » » » »

+1.0 YH ranks in the tallest 10% +97 MW ranks in the heaviest 2% -37 $EN ranks in the lowest 95% +75 CW ranks in the top 1% +1.10 Marb ranks in the top 4% +.95 RE ranks in the top 10% -.018 Fat ranks in the leanest 15%

From this, it is easy to see that selection for $B favors: » » » » » » » »

High growth Tall frame Large mature sized cows High energy ($EN) requirements Heavy carcass weight High marbling Large ribeye area Leaner animals with less back fat

This type of large, lean animal does not make a highly fertile or easy keeping female.

In contrast, $Profit selects for good growth, moderate frame, lower feed intake, less energy requirement, good ribeye, average fat, and very high marbling.

We believe that carcass weights are high enough and that the best value for Angus cattle is to focus on making a good cow that produces efficient converting steers that grade prime. The new Angus $Combined (see sidebar), is the best of the Association’s indexes. It takes into account a much wider range of traits than any other current AAA index. However, selection for $Combined alone will continue the dramatic upward genetic trends in cow size, feed intake, and energy requirements. For these reasons, we still prefer $Profit and believe it is the best index available for predicting real world profitability.

2019 Ankony “Only the Tops” Sale

$Combined

The American Angus Association plans to officially release the $Combined index in June 2020, but the data is available now on a trial basis.

Combined Value ($C), expressed in dollars per head, is an index which includes all traits that make up both Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($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 eventually sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.

Expected progeny differences (EPDs) directly influencing 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), ribeye area (RE) and fat thickness (Fat).

A New Paradigm for Enhancing Angus Value H P C A Sure Fire P245 Dam of lots 1-3

H P C A Sure Fire P245 » H P C A Sure Fire P245 has emerged as one of the most important cows in the Angus breed.

In our 2018 sale, we sold a ½ interest in her and her offspring for $625,000 to our friend, Frank Vandersloot at Riverbend Ranch. » P245’s multi-trait goodness remains unparalleled. When we search for the breed’s highest profitability animals, she ranks first among females with 25 or more progeny. Her daughters and sons also rank in the top of the breed however compared. She has three daughters among the top 20 on $Combined at Angus including the #1 female and the #3 female. It is only a matter of time before she produces a breed-leading son. When visitors stop to see the cow, they are impressed. She is a modest-sized cow with tons of thickness, great feet, and a maternal look that speaks to fertility and longevity. » Now is your chance to access this superstar female through the offering of three of her daughters. Sired by Enhance, Peyton, and Velocity—you have a cross section of leading sires.

Each of these females stands out in her own right. Just as we predicted that P245 would produce breed leaders—we are equally certain that these daughters will do the same. In genetics, time marches on and your best bet is always to go with the young animals with the highest proofs. These three P245 daughters check all of the boxes.

Montana Lucy 7003 Dam of lots 4 and 5

One of the things that makes working with Ankony so fun, is when Virgil Lovell and Lee Leachman independently come up with the same ideas. That happened when they chanced upon the opportunity to buy Basin Lucy 1037. It turns out that both of them have long believed that she was one of the best cows in the breed. Our respect for this cow has grown even more as we witnessed Montana Lucy 7003 and her first offspring. Without question, 7003 raised one of the best natural calves on the farm this spring—she sells as lot 4. Rampage has over 860 reported daughters in production—for our money, 7003 is one of the very best! Ankony purchased 7003 for $30,000 in the 2018 Bases Loaded Sale.

Riverbend Lucy U1187

Maternal Granddam of lots 6 and 7 Riverbend Lucy U1187 earned a reputation at Ankony for producing powerful offspring that always came to the top of the stack on visual appraisal and performance. U1187 sold in our 2018 sale for $200,000 to 6 Pastures. 6 Pastures also acquired her daughter by Discovery, 6131, for $180,000.

It is of little surprise that our picks of the 6 Pastures winter 2018 calves are all out of U1187 and her daughters. Lucy U1187 has produced over $1.6 million in progeny sales and has WR 20@101! She is one of the most prolific donors to ever work in the Ankony Farms program.

This daughter of Emblazon stems from a direct daughter of the $2 million producer, Rita 2811, sired by the legendary female sire, EXT. By stacking Emblazon and EXT—X237 offers an impeccable maternal pedigree while still ranking in the breed’s top 30% on $Beef! Blackcap X237 joined the Ankony Farms donor program as the co-top-selling donor of the 2015 Riverbend Genetic Edge Female Sale to anchor the Rita 2811.

Ankony Miss Fusion A016 Dam of lot 19

Ankony Miss Fusion A016, like every other elite female in the Ankony herd, traces back to an elite foundation female – G A R EXT 2114! But she is more than just a namesake, she excels at the most elite levels of the breed with a top 1% ranking for WW, YW, RE, and $Beef. She also is a member of the rarest of clubs – those animals with over +1 for both Marbling and Ribeye area. Most of today’s high growth Angus lack adequate ribeye area to match their carcass weight potential. That’s why we love the animals that uniquely combine both marbling and ribeye.

Ankony Quality and Integrity since 1935

Turn out an Ankony Bull to Access this Unique Profit Opportunity I’ve been in the cattle industry for over 30 years. I started negotiating packer grids on behalf of breed associations in the mid 90s. More recently, I helped develop the Reputation Feeder Cattle program that has now become the Angus Link program. All of that time, I dreamed of a program that would fairly reward ranchers based on the quality of genetics that they produced. I believe that the FPL Food Natural Angus program is the best chance ever for ranchers!

—Lee Leachman Why is the FPL Program different? » It’s regional—consumers want their beef to be produced more locally. » It’s family owned—just like your operation, FPL is family owned. » It’s based on quality, not volume. » It’s designed by ranchers, for ranchers!

Come learn about the plans that FPL Food, Châtel Farms’ and Ankony Angus are developing. This could be the single most important step you take towards ensuring the future profitability of your beef cattle operation.
