Lienemann Cattle Co 2017 Bull Sale Catalog by LivestockDirect

Trevor Lienemann tlienemann@diodecom.net 402-560-6824

Fellow cattlemen,

We welcome your evaluation of our 2017 Lienetics Bull sale offering. The progressive and hardened genetics offered in this sale will increase profits at all levels of production. That means they: calve easy and are vigorous at birth, are efficient foragers, have high growth and conversion, are sound and structurally correct, are fertile and maternally efficient, with premium udders, and will produce a heavy and high quality carcass for the packer, retailer, and consumer. As market conditions ebb and flow, one thing remains consistent; optimizing all genetically important traits and markers to create low input, high performance, and high quality carcass cattle will remain the most profitable. That is why Lienetics bulls and females are produced by females with function and performance in an environment of minimal inputs that include early spring through late fall grass (no creep) grazing, fall and winter residue grazing, and minimal days hay in the months of February, March and April. We feel a minimal input environment and management practice, combined with the right type of genetics, will allow us to always meet and most likely far exceed your expectations of your genetic purchase. It is easy to breed for maximums, or increase inputs, but certainly these are not the most profitable methods for our customers. As seedstock producers, we need to challenge and demand greatness of our cattle at every stage of production for your benefit. In putting this catalog together, it is interesting to see how years of breeding for genetic optimums has allowed so many cattle in this offering to defy antagonisms, and hit the top of the breed across the board in economically relevant traits of BW and Growth, as well as $W and $B indexes, all the while keeping input requirements in check. Over the years, we have had several customers request for some Simmental influence in connection with our amazing maternal Angus genetics. Therefore, we fulfilled that request with a flush to our time proven Barbarae 4988 cow and the great WAGR Driver bull. As well, we sought out of the best purebred Simmental bull offered in 2015, and utilized him for natural service, thereby adding some Â˝ blood SimAngus to the sale for your evaluation. Also, for the first time in several years we are offering a select group of heifers with tremendous genetic merit and optimum maternal value. Select your next show heifer, foundation or donor. If you are part of the total beef production and profit chain, please join us, or contact us to arrange purchases on sale day.

Sincerely,

Trevor L. Lienemann 402-560-5385

We believe in the Angus breed, our program, in our customers, and in our combined ability to provide the best quality beef product available in the world with complete consumer satisfaction. We intend to fulfill that belief through our genetics which take low input resources provided by solar energy, and convert it to the most premium protein product in the world, as well as the most satisfying eating experience available to the consumer. This is achieved through the continual improvement of our Angus genetics through acquisitions, selection pressure for phenotype and genotype, AI & ET technology, DNA EPD enhancement, and our feedlot program which allows us to measure and appraise actual performance, efficiency, and carcass merit of our raised animals and those produced by our bull genetics in our customer cattle. If you have Lienetics sired cattle to sell, please let us know, and we will do our best to participate, own, or find buyers to increase your cattle value and profits. When it comes to added con-

sistency in todayâ€™s variable market, we have invested additional dollars into the bulls and females you are purchasing for your added benefit. This has been done through genomic (DNA) testing of all the cattle on the sale. Those results have then enhanced the accuracy and value of the related EPDâ€™s on each bull individually to give you as the buyer a more confident and consistent product to purchase, and related progeny results.

FALL BORN BULLS The fall born bulls offered for sale are from outstanding dams and nursed on late fall grasses and corn stover, similar as the spring cows. These calves are creep fed in the later months as the nutritional quality of the grazing forages is significantly depleted. They are weaned in March and turned out on grass for the summer, and combined with the spring born bulls for development on test in late fall. These bulls have a little bit more age and size with a ton of future. They will cover big pastures and settle a large volume of females while maintaining their condition. Their progeny will add additional profit to your operation and bottom line.

All natural protein supplement for heifers, brood cows, stocker cattle and horses. SweetPro 16 protein supplement is designed for the essential fortification of heifers, brood cow, stocker cattle and goat requirements for vitamins A, D and E plus protein, calcium, phosphorus and trace elements including selenium. Daily intake will vary depending on forage quality and nutritional needs. SweetPro blocks improve calving and clean-up. Stronger calves pay bigger dividends. SweetPro blocks are an effective tool to improve breed-back. Organic complexed (chelated) minerals plus extra energy are known to improve first service conception rates. Using SweetPro blocks at weaning reduces calf weight loss by reducing weaning stress and cows consistently wean heavier, “growthy” calves without risk of discounts for “fat” calves.

We are proud to be your SE NE Sweet Pro Dealer

EPDs and $Values We have the following abbreviations throughout this book with regard to EPDs and actual data. $ Values are expressed in terms of real dollars for a combination of related traits. Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus. Re-

member, no EPD is an absolute. It simply allows you to compare genetic differences in sires. $Value indexes, are multi-trait selection indexes to assist beef producers by adding simplicity to genetic selection decisions. $Values are reported in dollars per head, where a higher value is more favorable. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires in the database if the sires were randomly mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environment.

Birth Weight, expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the animals ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny

Weaning Weight, is a predictor of a sireâ€™s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Milk

Influence of the dam, due to her milking ability, on weaning weight, expressed in pounds of calf weaned.

Yearling Weight, expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sireâ€™s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compare to other sires

%IMF

Expressed as a fraction of the difference USDA marbling score of a sireâ€™s progeny compared to others

REA

Ribeye area, expressed in square inches, and a given end point.

FAT

Fat thickness, expressed in inches, at a given end point.

Carcass Weight is expressed in pounds is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire's progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

$W or API

Is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for pre-weaning merit, and includes both revenue and cost adjustments

$B or TI

Is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post weaning and carcass value

Adj.WW

Actual weaning and yearling weights adjusted to a common number of days for proper comparison

My recommendation for exposure based on all relevant Recom- factors, for bulls to work on first calf heifers, heifers or mended cows(added perfomance), and the most profit to cow for: production and feedlot value. A Cow Energy Value ($EN) is available to assess differences in cow energy requirements, expressed in dollars per cow per year, as an expected dollar savings difference in future daughters of sires. $EN
