THE WARDENS FARM PROGRAM Like all seedstock producers, we would like to put together a genetic package that will have a major impact in the industry. With today’s complex industry and the necessity for genetics to compete on all fronts, it is not an easy task. We feel that cattle have to calve and reproduce at a high rate, grow efficiently and then end with a desirable carcass that our consumers will demand. By using all the tools outlined here, we feel we are getting closer every year to attaining this goal. Duane Warden grew up on a 400-acre farm in Grant City, Missouri. In 1939, at age 14, he raised a Grand Championship Angus Steer in the regional FFA show in Kansas City. It brought 13 cents a pound, which was a good price then. At that time, a Dodge 4-door sedan cost $925! Inspired by the example of a country doctor, he went to medical school and specialized in Obstetrics and Gynecology. After completing his residency, he served two years in the Army, delivering babies at Fort Eustice in Virginia. In 1955 he started a practice in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Before he retired in 1990, he delivered 6,500 babies there. Over the years, he switched from babies to Angus cattle. From its start in 1964, our performance breeding program has been expanded continuously to take advantage of improved technology and genetics. Wardens Farm was an early supporter of bull tests, selling the top bull at the Iowa Bull Test in 1972 and the top sire group at Dunlap in 1974. Tools that we have used include: 1. Birth, weaning and yearling weights 2. EPDs for the traits above plus maternal milk 3. Carcass data collection 4. AHIR®: Angus Herd Improvement Records 5. Ultrasound carcass data 6. Feed efficiency on bull tests 7. Iowa Beef Tenderness & Carcass Evaluation Project 8. Circle A Sire Alliance 9. Iowa Sire Profit Evaluation Project A new era began at Wardens Farm in 1982 with the purchase of a Pinpointer 4000. The Pinpointer provides access to feed for one animal at a time, recording the identity of that animal as it moves into the feeding area. By monitoring the weight of feed constantly, the animal’s intake can be determined when it leaves the area. This setup provides individual feed consumption measurements, allowing us to test the feed efficiency on our bulls each year. We have now been directly selecting for highefficiency cattle for twenty-eight years! Recently we have upgraded to a new Feed Intake Monitoring System that allows us to test 42 bulls for feed efficiency.

As carcass quality becomes an increasingly important factor in the beef industry, Wardens Farm is once again ahead of the game. Since 1992, we have collected data on 18 bulls through the American Angus Association Sire Evaluation Program. We have also been scanning our yearling bulls since 1988. All of this data allows us to provide accurate carcass and ultrasound EPDs. We utilize artificial insemination extensively in the Wardens Farm herd, we now synchronize all cows and heifers and breed them all on the same day, then use Wardens Farm bulls for clean up. Bull selection: •Weight per day of age (off-test): > 3.0 •Frame score: < 6.5 •Ultrasound fat thickness: < 0.4 in. •Ultrasound %IMF: > 3.0% •Feed efficiency ratio: > 100 •Birth weight: < 95 lbs. •Ultrasound REA: > 12.5 sq. in. •Scrotal circumference: > 36 cm. Today our program includes a core herd of cows in Council Bluffs as well as shared herds in Tingley, Atlantic, Lewis, and Treynor, Iowa. In all, Wardens Farm runs over 300 registered Angus cows.

The Feed Intake Monitoring System A New Generation of Feed Efficiency Testing Wardens Farm has made a gift to the Iowa State University Animal Science department and that is the new feed intake monitoring system (FIMS) that was developed in 2005 by the Iowa Beef Center. This FIMS system allows us to get individual feed intakes on a ration similar to what is used by the feedlot industry to finish steers. The FIMS system was reconfigured so it has seven pens set up to handle six bulls per pen with each pen containing a feed bunk-scale system and waterer. The Iowa Beef Center in cooperation with three companies (Id-ology out of Wisconsin, Scale Source and Mirafont in Iowa) designed and oversaw the installation of the system. The Iowa Beef Center has developed software which summarizes the intake data and calculates feed conversion and residual feed intake on all the bulls. Sixty-three bulls were tested each year in 2006 and 2007 for an 84-day period. In 2008 a total of 41 bulls are being tested under the supervision of Iowa Beef Center staff. During the remaining part of the year, beef research faculty at ISU will be using the system in their research programs.

Background on Residual Feed Intake (RFI) Researchers have known for years that direct selection for feed efficiency (measured as pounds of feed per pound of gain) has some potential drawbacks. One issue is that feed efficiency is highly correlated with average daily gain; this suggests that selection for high growth alone is much more cost-effective than going through the hassle of measuring individual feed intake. Another problem is that this crude measure of feed efficiency would tend to select for animals with greater muscle mass and less fat deposition. This is because a pound of muscle contains far less energy than a pound of fat, and it therefore requires less feed to build muscle than fat tissue. While at certain points in the growth curve this may not be a problem, if feed efficiency is measured through maturity, carcass quality could be harmed by selection for feed efficiency. Finally, selecting for increased average daily gain results in increased mature size; increasing the size and energy requirements of brood cows is not a goal of most operations. Residual feed intake (RFI) is becoming widely accepted as a more valuable tool for genetic selection for feed efficiency. RFI is defined as the amount of feed eaten daily compared to what that animal is expected to consume based on results from the contemporary group in which it was raised. Something called regression analysis on the entire contemporary is used to arrive at the expected consumption equation and then that is compared to what the animal actually consumes. This expected intake value is then compared to the actual daily intake for the individual to determine the RFI value. Example values: Average Daily Gain

Expected Feed Intake

Actual Daily Feed Intake

Residual Feed Intake

3.1 lbs.

16.2 lbs.

15.8 lbs.

-0.4 lbs. (15.8-16.2=-0.4)

Interpreting and Utilizing RFI Because of how RFI is defined, lower (negative) numbers indicate greater feed efficiency, while higher numbers indicate poorer feed efficiency. RFI can be used for genetic selection with confidence; it is not correlated with average daily gain, body weight, body composition, or mature size, so you wonâ€™t be unintentionally moving backwards on other traits as you improve feed efficiency. However, like other performance values for which no EPD is available, RFI should only be compared across animals managed together (for example, one can select among Wardens Farm bulls using RFI, but these values are not useful for comparing with bulls from another operation).
