Bulls!
In the cattle business, the emphasis should be on business and with today’s high corn prices it is important that the money we make is with cattle that perform on grass. We are a forage based operation. Our calves are not creep fed and are raised on grass. All of our bulls are guaranteed TB, Trichinosis, and Bangs free and semen tested. Under our family’s 4 brands we buy over 135,000 High Weaning head of stocker cattle in the Southeast annually. We Weight buy your calves at your local market. We know what your buyers want because we are one of them. Our cattle are well adapted to your area because they were raised less than 100 miles from the Gulf of Mexico on grass. They will not fall apart. 44 of the Charolais breed’s Top 50 bulls for Total Maternal are Rogers Bar HR bred. In addition, Rogers Bar HR bulls have won more BIF guideline central tests than any herd in the nation! We hold the rate of gain record for both MS and FL.

VIEWPOINT
CHAROLAIS Genomics The game changer.
It’s predictable. At some point in the course of the ups and downs of the beef
industry cycles, the advantages and disadvantages of crossbreeding will be debated more intensely than other times. The U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC), Clay Center, Nebraska, began the first germplasm research in the early 1970s. The objective of germplasm research was to determine high priority problems in the beef industry, then design and conduct research to objectively analyze those problems. For many years, MARC data was the only source of objective research continually using controlled maternal genetics. For more than 40 years, MARC has researched virtually every beef related and breed specific issue from animal health, genetics, nutrition, reproduction, meat safety and quality. The research design for all breed evaluations has used a control group of crossbred females (F1), and sires representing virtually every beef breed
indexes. The price point for genomic testing has decreased and is becoming more affordable. Soon, genomic testing for commercial cattle, replacements and feeder cattle, will be commonplace. Animal geneticists have advised for years, when the science and technology became available, genomics would prove there is every bit as much genetic variation within a breed, as there is variation between breeds. Today, the responsibility to make breeding decisions based on sound science has never been greater. But, the information to make those decisions has never been more accurate. Beginning in January, AICA will launch a new national advertising campaign. The theme of the campaign is “Do What Works.” While the beef industry has countless research and studies touting the benefits of breeds and volumes of
“...the fact remains Charolais and Charolais influenced genetics have worked at every segment of the beef business for generations.” found in the U.S. In fact, 36 breeds have been evaluated. The entire body of research spanning the years has resulted in the most extensive relevant crossbreeding research in the world. MARC data has been the foundational, breed specific research from which most all other research has evolved. The beef industry has relied heavily on this research to make changes and improve selection tools. Fast forward to today. As stated on www.ars.usda.gov website, “there is now less emphasis in the industry on evaluating new sources of breeds and more on genetic changes resulting from selection within breeds and genetic differences correlated with genetic markers.” Reduced cow numbers, drought, increased input costs and market volatility have created a perfect storm of sorts. In fact, while the anxiety level is high, the potential for long-term profitability has never been more promising, with a couple of very important caveats. Genomic information likely will influence a producer’s methodology for sire selection and heifer replacements in the future. Buyers of your product will likely require some type of genomic assurance that your cattle will perform before purchasing. If genomic information is not available, your product will be less likely to access a value-added system. Currently, registered seedstock genetic evaluation tools are being enhanced as the influence of genomic data is factored into expected progeny differences and
genomic information, at the end of the day, every commercial producer in America must do what works for them. Drive in any feedyard in America and you will quickly recognize that Charolais genetics work. The decision making process is difficult to quantify and the profitable close out data may not be found in a tidy research package. But, the fact remains Charolais and Charolais-influenced genetics have worked at every segment of the beef business for generations. It’s fairly easy to recognize our industry is, potentially, on the cusp of a massive herd repopulation that may take years. One can also anticipate the next generation of decision makers will largely influence those purchases and quite possibly have a better working knowledge of all the available genetic evaluation tools than the current generation. While genomics may be a game changer in the coming years, Charolais and Charolais-influenced genetics have been on the ‘A’ team for three-quarters of a century. No doubt, the genetic selection tools available today and in the future will provide unprecedented accuracy. The industry, as always, will consider the value of genomic information, as well as other new tools and technology, and incorporate into individual operations as the return on investment makes good business sense. The bottom line is every beef producer must “do what works.”

The AICA is the official registry for Charolais and Charbray cattle in the United States. Charolais cattle were first brought to the U.S. in 1936. In 1957, the American Charolais Breeders Association and the International Charolais Breeders Association merged forming the present AICA. Membership in the AICA is obtainable when the applicant has ownership in at least one animal, and has paid the initial membership fee of $125. AICA annual dues are $100.

Reminders Utilize our on-line system
I
n September of 2012, AICA moved its DNA parentage testing and 50k genomic testing to GeneSeek Laboratories in Lincoln, Neb. The change from UC Davis to GeneSeek has been very smooth. The procedure for requesting a kit has not changed; we need to know the registration number of the animal because the kit is specific to that animal. You may request the parentage test, the 50K test or a horned/polled test. This lab does not offer rush services, so please plan on at least a 10 day/two week turn around. Reminder – the deadline for having data submitted to be included in the 2013 Sire Summary is November 15th. You can send data to the office or enter it on-line using AICA’s on-line system. Go to the “my inventory” list and click “calving” to enter the calf data. If you already have the calf data on file, start on the “my weaning” screen under “my performance”. You can add performance data to animals that are already registered by going to the “weaning” button and clicking “edit”. Performance data for animals you did not own on the birth date cannot be entered on-line. You will need to submit the weights and registration numbers to the office. As we move further into the fall, the processing time here at the office will increase to a week. Please make sure you get your paperwork in to us in plenty of time to meet all your deadlines. Papers can be processed as a rush, the fee is $50. • November: The 2013 dues notice cards will go in the mail to all active and junior members. The dues are $100 for active member and $25 for junior members. • December: AICA office is closed December 25th through January 1st. • January: 2013 female enrollment will be open. You can process yours on-line or watch for 2013 enrollment form. The form will be mailed to all active/ junior members.

Hello, my name is Kurtis Clawson and I am currently a sophomore at Kansas State University majoring in Agronomy. I am involved on campus with Agriculture Ambassadors, Phi Eta Sigma, Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity, and the Wheat State Agronomy club. I have grown up in the Charolais industry and have grown to love the AIJCA. The organization has helped shape the person I am today.
Q: Which Charolais Jr. National contest has affected you the most and why? A: The Quiz bowl contest has affected me the most because
it has expanded my knowledge of beef and the Charolais industry, as well as, general cattle information that is useful to know.

The traits in the Charolais breed that I consider the to be stranded with Wes Chism because of the funny jokes or most important are the finishing traits. Charolais cattle have stories I expect him to have. proven themselves to perform well in feedlots with good feed efficiency, high terminal weights, and superior muscling.

She’s sired by Big Ben, a bull that has blown the doors off our expectations. At three years of age, he has had a daughter in the National Sale and a son named the American Royal Grand Champion as a calf. In our bull sale this past spring, five of the top nine high sellers were sired by him. The 15 Big Ben sons in the sale averaged 81 lbs. at birth, 110 for weaning ratio and sold for an average of $5,446, almost a full $1,000 over the sale average. Her service sire was our high-selling bull going to Weber Charolais for $10,500 for onehalf interest and fall possession. Presented by Wienk Charolais Ranch, Lake Preston, SD 605-860-0505

His dam’s sire, Galaxy, may be the best bull I’ve used for udder quality. Beyond Belief daughters follow the same pattern.

Genetic Evaluation
Evolves With Genomic Data by Robert Williams, Director of Breed Improvement & Foreign Marketing
Seedstock producers look to use genetic variation to make directional changes in their herds for economically important traits. When selection decisions are made there are expectations of a response to those selections. The importation of beef genetics, establishment of research, education and extension programs, the beef cattle performance revolution and the printing of the first sire summaries have all had a profound impact on the U.S. beef population increasing value and production. While current beef cow inventories have returned to levels of the 1950s, beef production has more than doubled over the same period of time. While much of the improvements in productivity can be traced to improvements in nutrition, management and improved health it has been the last 30 to 40 years that our increased focus on performance programs has been responsible for significant gains as well. With the introduction of the Expected Progeny Differences (EPD) in the early 1980s accuracy of selection was greatly increased, not only for seedstock producers but for commercial beef production as well. No longer did we have to rely simply on what we could see along with the influences of the environment in our selection, we now had a tool that allowed us to more accurately separate environment from genetics to make more informed decisions within and across herds. Genetic evaluations have played a significant role in much of the improvement with the first sire summary published in 1971 and closely followed by every major beef breed in the United States. Genetic trend tables published by the Meat Animal Research Center, Clay Center, Nebraska, have shown as much as 60 pounds or more increase in the genetics for yearling weight alone since the early 1970s. Additionally, over this same period of time the combination of genetics, management, nutrition and health has seen average dressed carcass weights for steers increase by 150 pounds. Since 1980 we have continued to make improvements in genetic selection tools that have increased the accuracy of selection. As technology and research continue to advance we will continue to see improvements regarding accuracy of selection. We have benefited greatly from the research and development from USDA ARS and land grant universities among others. However, development of new technology often takes a building-block approach where new discoveries are based on earlier discoveries and increased knowledge. We are a witness to this today as genomic technology continues to improve and the optimism that it will play a larger role in the genetic characterization of our cattle. The question whether to use genomic information has been replaced by how to use it efficiently and effectively. The cornerstone for our success in regards to genetic selection has been the collection of quality phenotypic data which has allowed producers to 60

capitalize on research/technology transfer programs for genetic improvement. This will continue to be important or research into genomic markers may have little if any impact. The old adage “genetic evaluations are only as good as our data” will continue to be true and will be important information as the expansion of genomic data will require large volumes of phenotypic data and will be required to update existing marker effects. As has been mentioned, the greatest benefit regarding genomics when included in future evaluations will be the increased accuracy on young nonparent animals when compared to conventional or current evaluations. Accuracy of genomic enhanced EPD however will be reliant on the accuracy of performance data bases. The more accurate the performance database the greater the opportunity to improve and sustain accuracy through genomic enhanced EPD. Regardless of including genomics into genetic evaluations we can nevertheless improve accuracy today through existing programs. Increases in artificial insemination (A.I.) to widely used high accuracy sires between herds and contemporary groups both within and across years improves connectedness. An increase in the use of A.I. can result in increased accuracy. More timely and complete reporting of data to be included in genetic evaluations will result in increased accuracy of selection. Getting calves included in a genetic evaluation as soon as possible increases the accuracy of selection before calves have been sold and/or exposed or before selection and/ or breeding decisions have been made.
“The old adage ‘genetic evaluations are only as good as our data’ will continue to be true...” Report more yearling weights and associated yearling measurements, such as ultrasound data. While many calves are sold from the herd shortly after weaning there remains a significant number of yearling weights that could be reported and thereby increasing the accuracy of weaning and associated traits. When yearling weights are collected there are opportunities to collect measurements of scrotal circumference and ultrasound measurements for ribeye area, rib fat thickness, rump fat and IMF scores which are used in the calculation of carcass EPD. And finally, accurate and complete reproductive and breeding information through whole herd reporting programs will not only help breeders identify the most productive cows in their breeding herds it will also help lead to the identification of genomic markers in the future for important reproductive traits; again increasing accuracy of selection.

Both But we don’t need a whole genome sequence in most cases.

The point to remember is that the expected change of an EPD with a high ACC is correspondingly less than those of an EPD with a lower ACC value. One mistake that many producers make is to assume that low accuracy have little reliability as compared to actual performance data. We must remember that an EPD utilizes all available information; therefore, a low accuracy EPD incorporates the available performance and pedigree information. Recent research has shown that an EPD is the most accurate tool available to make genetic progress for a given trait.

Pre-Calving Vaccination Programs for Cows By Heather Smith Thomas
Calves have a better chance of staying healthy during their first weeks of life if they get an adequate amount of goodquality colostrum soon after birth, containing antibodies against pathogens they may encounter. If the dam has a chance to build a high level of antibodies before calving, she can pass this temporary immunity to her calf. Preventing calfhood disease involves many factors, which include a clean environment (low level of pathogens for the calf to pick up) and well-nourished, healthy cows with strong immunities. Vaccinating cows ahead of calving can help build peak antibody levels--so the cows’ colostrum contains the maximum amount of protective antibodies. Dr. Chris Chase, Department of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences, South Dakota State University, says that when trying to improve colostrum quality in terms of timing (when to give the vaccine) it depends on the type of product used. “It is important to have maximum titers a few weeks ahead of calving. Titer levels don’t tell you much in terms of protecting the cow, but the titer directly reflects what you’ll find in the colostrum. Antibodies are transported into the udder from the cow’s bloodstream,” he explains. “The mammary gland has specialized receptors to snag the antibodies. Those receptors start to show up 4 to 6 weeks before parturition but their ability to concentrate antibodies is highest at about 2 to 3 weeks prior to calving. This is when you want the cow to have peak antibody titers.” If you vaccinate too early and the cow reaches peak level at a month or more before calving, you miss that window. “The thing that’s important is the type of product you use. Vaccines that contain oil as an adjuvant will give antibody titers that last longer than the vaccines using a different type of adjuvant (such as alum). Your product choice may depend on when you have the opportunity to vaccinate the cows,” says Chase. The vaccines that don’t use oil can get you into a problem if your calving season is long. A single vaccination might be adequate if calving season is short, but if it’s 60 days or longer, the cows calving toward the end will no longer have much
titer and their colostrum may contain very little antibody compared to cows calving in the first part of the season. If you used a product that doesn’t have an oil adjuvant, consider re-vaccinating any cows that have not yet calved, to boost their titers so their colostrum will be more protective for their calves. “When dealing with oil-based products, however, you typically have to give those earlier (farther ahead of calving) than when using the other types of vaccines. Almost all products require a 2-dose series the first time (for heifers, and for any cows that have never had the pre-calving vaccination). When giving 2 doses to heifers, the first one needs to be at least 10 to 12 weeks away from calving, and the second one about 4 to 6 weeks out from calving. In subsequent years you only need a single dose, which should be given 4 to 6 weeks before calving,” he explains. “If you vaccinate only 2 weeks ahead of calving, the antibody titer won’t be very high yet. The cow won’t be able to produce enough antibodies to have good quality colostrum.” There are some good products that protect calves against GI infections like rotavirus and coronavirus, E. coli, and Clostridium perfringens type C and D. “There are advantages to using these to help prevent scours in baby calves. The big debate is in trying to prevent respiratory diseases by vaccinating calves rather than getting protection from maternal antibodies. Some producers will not vaccinate cows against BRSV because they are afraid the maternal antibodies the calf absorbs from colostrum will interfere with modifiedlive virus vaccines given to the calf,” says Chase. “We now have products that can be given intranasally to the calf, with very little interference from maternal antibodies. Some people are not impressed with the IM or SubQ modified-live virus respiratory vaccines, particularly BRSV, in terms of protection acquired—because it can be so variable,” says Chase. “The half-life of BRSV antibody, for whatever reason, seems to be more variable than the rest. Most are about 21 days (17 to 24 days) in terms of passive transfer antibodies. But BRSV has a bigger range (about 30-something down to

16 days) so it’s a harder window to hit. But if a ranch doesn’t have a problem with BRSV in calves, they won’t need this type of vaccine,” he says. “Today several companies offer BRSV as an intranasal product for calves, to help avoid maternal interference issue (maternal antibodies in colostrum interfering with the calf ’s immune system mounting its own defenses from a calfhood vaccination). If you vaccinate by injection it’s a problem,” he explains. Vaccination should always be discussed with your veterinarian, to make a plan that most helpful in your own situation—to decide which strategy might work best to prevent diseases that have been diagnosed in your herd. Colostrum quality is also affected by nutrition. It’s common to feed beef cows poor quality forage, but this only works if they have proper supplementation to ensure enough energy, protein and trace minerals for proper growth and development of the fetus and good colostrum quality. You can vaccinate cows but their colostrum quality will be poor if they are not getting the nutrients they need for producing good colostrum. “Some people think the answer is in a vaccine bottle, but there must be enough energy, protein and other nutrients for vaccine to work. If the cows are low on energy, they won’t build good immunity,” says Chase. “We are looking at a study where researchers fed cows
about 80% of their NRC requirements during gestation. The purpose of the study was to look at the effects on muscling and marbling in the calves, but we also are looking at immune response in that calf. If we don’t feed cows properly, not only are we cheating the colostrum quality but we could be affecting growth and development of that calf for longer than we realized,” he explains. “We are talking a lot about fetal programming in calves. Though the study was focused on muscling, we looked at it in terms of immune response,” he says. “For example, in calves infected with BVD in the final trimester, we used to say that by then the calf ’s immune system is working and the infection will be controlled—and the calf will be normal. Now it’s clear that there’s a negative effect on the calf ’s immune system. The same type of fetal programming effect may occur in the calf if the cow doesn’t have enough energy in her diet. You can’t make up for shortages during fetal development after the calf is born,” he says. “I can only imagine what some people are being forced to feed their cows after the drought situation this past year in some parts of the U.S. We wonder what shape their calves will be in, in terms of how much colostrum (and antibody levels) they’ll get from the cows and what affect this nutritional deprivation has had on their growth and development in utero,” says Chase.
