The Wisconsin Review The official publication of the Wisconsin Hereford Association welcomes member and non-member advertising.
Editor… Jane Adolph | 815-244-5456 E-mail: jeadolph@gmail.com
President Letter Hello again, it is that time of the year for the last quarter of the Wisconsin Hereford Association’s Review. I hope everyone had a safe and prosperous 2022 as it winds down. I want to take time in the President’s letter to let you know your board has been busy and some of the things that were accomplished in 2022 to date. Our advertising committee and association members had attended several agriculture events this year including the Driftless Region Beef Conference in Iowa, the Wisconsin Power Show in Oshkosh, the Farm Technology Days in Clark County, and the World Beef Expo in West Allis. We also had representatives from our association at the Kids and Cows Day in Barron County where By: Rick Starck kids have the chance to educate themselves on several topics of WHA President cattle handling and showing and actually had a chance to handle live animals. What a great opportunity to get kids involved in cattle where they wouldn’t have otherwise! I feel all of these events benefit our association and Hereford cattle by connecting with people and discussing our cattle and the many facets of the cattle industry as well as the challenges we face. This year’s Wisconsin Hereford Tour was held in the southeast part of the state this fall where several educational topics were discussed by state and national leaders in the cattle industry. AHA Shane Bedwell brought new and exciting information in feed efficiency traits as it relates to the never ending discussion on greener gas emissions, a topic of worldwide discussion. Market information and consumer expectations were also discussed by top leaders in the state. We also enjoyed virtual tours of the host farms. The Jackpot Steer Show was well attended where Hereford submissions were up from last year and our county fair award program has continued to provide combs to those winning in the show ring. The Jones family continues to provide excellent supervision to our juniors and I’m sure BJ will be counting on a lot of from all of us in 2023 as the Junior Nationals comes to Madison in 2023. We want to send a big congratulations out to Madison Katzenberger, WHA Queen on her crowning as the National Hereford Queen. We are fortunate to have her representing us. It was our goal as a board to provide better communications to our members this year utilizing our updated website and group emails to inform you of what has occurred and what is happening in the future. We understand better communications provides others a chance to get involved in our association and as we move forward promoting and growing Hereford cattle we hope our association does too! I’m sure I missed many other accomplishments we have made in 2022 and who knows what is in store for 2023. I do know our annual meeting is in January and Secretary Lisa Davis is working very hard in planning that meeting and hope everyone can make it. As I finish this letter, have a safe and productive harvest season and remember it is of most importance to enjoy and appreciate your family and friends this Holiday season!

What an incredible run for Team Hereford this fall! The demand for quality Hereford genetics was evident as many production sales across the country saw an increase in sale average and brought in many new customers. As my first full fall working for the AHA begins to come to a close, I can’t help but be excited about what the Hereford breed has in store for the future. This great demand for Hereford, paired with new data that we are going to continue to collect from the University of Illinois and Colorado State University generates excitement into the spring sale season. Looking back on October, the AHA also held the Annual Meeting in conjunction with the American Royal. Every year, I am blown away by the magnitude of this event, and this year was no different. Hereford breeders from across the world gathered for the betterment of the breed. A truly impressive event, and I hope everyone was able to attend, or learn about the annual meeting through social media and press releases that were posted throughout the week. Before I wrap-up please continue to watch for updates on the following sales: Kentucky Hereford Association Hereford Influenced Feeder Calf Sale – 12/1/2022 – Stanford, KY Greater Midwest Hereford Influenced Feeder Calf Sale – 1/5/2022 – Carthage, IL These two specialized sales have been critical in the marketing of Hereford feeder cattle in the last 10 years and have significantly helped fight the discounts that Hereford breeders may sometimes receive in a normal sale. In the association, we want to help you market your cattle more successfully, and these two sales are a great way to do that. As we begin to start closing out 2022, take time to be thankful. I always enjoy the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons and I think they are critical in our industry. To everyone out there, take the extra time to be with your family and loved ones. Enjoy their company and make memories alongside them. God has blessed each of us and this time of year is a great to take time to recognize that. I hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe holiday season. As always, never hesitate to reach out!

Madison Katzenberger 2023 National Hereford Queen
10
Humbled. Passionate. Excited. These are the three words I would use to describe my reign as the Hereford Queen. When I was crowned the Wisconsin Hereford Queen in February, I was humbled to have had the opportunity to represent Wisconsin in all aspects of my role as the Queen. I am extremely passionate about the Hereford breed and its breeders and dedicated my role to serving you all and promoting our state’s cattle at sales and shows. Lastly, I was excited to be the queen as it has been a goal of mine since I was a little girl, and I was finally living the dream. Fast forward from February to October and from Wisconsin to Missouri and we’d be at the American Royal on the day that one state queen’s life would change forever. It’s Sunday morning on October 23rd, and my mom is busy doing my hair, like she always did, and I am sitting in the chair trying not to let my mind go wild with the uncertainty of the future. I am feeling much more confident in myself wearing my favorite queen outfit so far, as I check the mirror one last time before walking out the door as the Wisconsin Hereford Queen for, hopefully, the last time. As the classes proceed and we near the end of the Heifer show, my heart is racing faster and pounding harder in anticipation for the announcement of the new National Hereford Queen. I quickly looked to my family and friends standing ringside as Shane began reading the names of the other contestant winners, and I was trying to keep an open mind and remain positive for the unknown, but then my name was read and I was introduced as the 2023 National Hereford Queen. I still can’t put into words what that moment felt like for me, but if I had to pick a few, they would be the same as when I was crowned the Wisconsin Hereford Queen. I am humbled that I was selected to hold such a title and achieve the goal I made when I was 8 years old. I am passionate about the National Hereford Queen program and the breed and breeders that I will represent. Most importantly, I am excited for the future and all the different opportunities I will get to experience as the National Hereford Queen. I would like to thank everyone for their unending support and words of encouragement. I would also like to thank the National Hereford Women for allowing girls like me the opportunity to serve in this capacity. I am so humbled, passionate and excited for my journey and look forward to representing the Hereford breed.

Member News Feeder Calf Marketing Opportunities
WHA Membership Information

2023 HEREFORD FEEDOUT PROGRAM ACCEPTING ENROLLMENTS CONVENIENT, COST-EFFECTIVE OPPORTUNITY The HFP, facilitated by HRC Feed Yards, Scott City, Kan., enables Hereford breeders and their commercial customers to send as few as five head to put on feed and discover how they perform. When finished, these cattle are marketed to National Beef Packing Company, LLC as candidates for Certified Hereford Beef. HRC Feed Yards also feeds cattle for the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) Fed Steer Shootout, which provides similar performance discovery for juniors, in addition to an educational program about the cattle feeding and beef packing sectors. Enrollments in the 2022 programs totaled 761 head from participants in 21 states. To participate in the 2023 programs, participants are encouraged to enroll by November 1, 2022. All cattle will be delivered to HRC Feed Yards from December 10 – 14, 2022. To properly prepare cattle for the feedlot, interested participants are encouraged to review and follow the suggested preparation protocol developed by HRC Feed Yards. More information, the enrollment form and the specific protocol for the Hereford Feedout Program can be found here, https://hereford.org/genetics/breed-improvement/feedoutprogram/. To learn more about the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout visit https://hereford.org/youth/njha-fed-steer-shootout/. Contact Trey Befort, tbefort@herefordbeef.org or Lee Mayo, General Manager at HRC Feed Yards, lee@hrcfeedyards.com with any questions about the programs.

There is only one way to know how genetics perform in the feedlot and on the rail — follow them through the finishing period and the packing house. That’s the impetus behind the American Hereford Association (AHA) Hereford Feedout Program (HFP). "I think it’s the best, most reliable way of acquiring actual carcass data and performance of your cattle," says Tom Heidt of K7 Herefords, Lockridge, Iowa. "It was a chance to compare my calves with others from across the country." Heidt enrolled cattle in the 2022 HFP for the first time. "The data verified the points I’m emphasizing in my breeding program," he says. Heidt’s cattle were above pen average for average daily gain, carcass weight and marbling. There was an outlier, though, one that didn’t achieve expectations. "That data aids me in making a cow culling decision," he says. Likewise, Lee Elzemeyer, a Hereford breeder from Richmond, Ind., explains, "I enrolled cattle because I wanted to get the carcass data back and attribute how those cattle perform going back to their dam and sire. As a producer it is important for us to know which animals produce the highest quality meat while also looking at other traits that can add premiums to the final product." Elzemeyer participated in the HFP for the second time last year. "Anyone in the beef business is in the carcass business because they all end up on the rail. If you’re not paying attention to carcass data, I think the time will come that you’ll be left behind," Heidt says.
