My name is Stephanie (Stielow) Dickerson, I am an owner and operator of Bar S Ranch, Paradise, KS, together with my husband, David, my parents Ken and Pat Stielow, son Ethan and daughter-in-law Lexi and son Jayce.

Bar S Ranch was established in 1900 with seedstock genetics that are commercially focused in a real world, unpampered environment. While Angus is our largest breed, we also sell Red Angus and Charolais bulls in our annual bull sale.

As I write this letter, most of you know we had to postpone our annual Kansas Angus Annual Meeting, Banquet and Futurity Junior Show. I hope all of you can join us Saturday Feb. 28 for our annual meeting and banquet, as well as Sunday March 1 for the junior show in Hutchinson.

We are also coming out of the deep freeze from some of the coldest temperatures this year. To quote a good friend of mine. “To every cattleman and cattlewoman watching the calvers tonight, coffee in one hand and grit in the other; may your calves hit the ground breathing, your mams stand and mother up, and your hands stay steady when the weather gets ugly.” Stay safe out there.

Thank you and I hope in the coming year I can meet many of you and connect with those of you I already know. I am humbled and excited to serve as your 2026 KAA President.

Notes & News from Anne Seasons?

In Kansas in February sometimes is hard to tell what season we are in, we can experience below freezing days, blizzards and even warm sunny days that hint at a promise of spring.

However, for Angus producers we know the season is the beginning of sale season and that calving season is in full swing for most. The season when the mating decisions of previous ‘breeding seasons’ pay off with new calves and sale days.

In FY 2025 reported sales of registered Angus bulls in the US averaged $8395 and females averaged $8436, nearly double from posted averages of just a few years before in 2020.

In the coming months Kansas Angus breeders will offer approximately 5000 registered Angus bulls through production sales and by private treaty an if early sales indicate what is to come it will be a great ‘sale season’.

It is also the season for shopping for new herd bull and replacement females. Our Kansas Angus Association members will offer genetics, bulls and females that fit whatever individual goals buyers have. As you are for your herd bull, donor females or replacement females look at what Kansas has to offer. Don’t miss the upcoming sale list on 24 of this issue.

Until Next Time,

Members! Join our Facebook Group Kansas Junior Angus Association.

February February2026 2026 7 7

Greetings, We are looking forward to a great spring season! From calving to sales to scholarship season, it’s a great time to be a part of the Angus family. If you are a high school senior, the state Auxiliary scholarship is due April 1. As a reminder, bronze and silver awards must be received prior to scholarship application. If not completed, do so as soon as possible to be eligible. The top male and female from the state are able to be sent on to compete for additional scholarship funds with the American Angus Auxiliary Scholarship. For more details, visit the website or contact any of the officers.

A new scholarship was established in 2023, the Auxiliary Angus Foundation Endowment Scholarship. If you are a college student above the freshman level and have been a member of the KJAA, NJAA, or current member with KAA, you are eligible to apply. Educational programs eligible include but are not limited to trade school, junior college, university, or any degreed program such as nursing or vo-tech. Applications are due April 1. Find more information on the website.

Join us for the rescheduled Ks Angus weekend on February 28 – March 1. We will have a short Auxiliary meeting, and later that evening award not only scholarships but also the Premier Exhibitor and Challenge Award at the banquet. New state royalty will also be crowned. Wrapping up the evening is the Auxiliary auction to raise funds to support the juniors. Bring an auction item or come ready to bid on your favorites! It will be a great weekend to reconnect with the Angus family and support the juniors!

KS Angus Auxiliary Leaders President—Esther McCabe Tarpoff 620.636.0245 Good luck with spring calving and sale seasons!

Parent Match to Streamline Parent Verification Upgraded, no-cost service offered by Angus Genetics Inc.

By Sarah Moyer, Senior Communications Specialist, Angus Media

When reviewing DNA results, members might now see “Parent Qualified by Parent MatchSM” as part of upgraded services from Angus Genetics Inc. (AGI®). This is the first of several progressive updates being implemented in 2026, streamlining the parent verification process for members. Parent Match is a no-cost, added service for customers of parentage testing.

For animals genomically tested with AGI, members can view qualified matches on their DNA results page.

Each parent will now show one of the following statuses: • • • •

Excluded: The provided sire(s) did not match the animal.

Qualified: Parent recorded in Calving Book matched the animal.

Parent Qualified by Parent Match: A different parent than the one provided by the member was found to match, based on results of the Parent Match system.

Contact Office: Conflicts exist in the results; member should speak with an AGI Customer Service Representative.

For Beef Improvement Records (BIR) animals, AGI will use the Parent Match technology to call parentage on those animals who cancel the reported sire or dam. For registered animals, AGI will offer a discovered parent through the “Animals with excluded DNA parentage” tab in AAA Login. Written confirmation is still required to update parentage on animals registered with the Association.

By registering an animal with a Parent Qualified by Parent Match, the member is agreeing that the discovered parents are true and accurate. Parent Match cannot account for individual animal ID or sample swaps at the farm/ ranch level (as is the case today).

Donor Dam Requirements to Register

American Angus Association members are encouraged to review the 2024 update to the donor dam DNA policy

Members with cattle in the upcoming spring sale, calving and show seasons should be cognizant of the 2024 donor dam rule change that may impact the ability to register embryo transfer (ET) calves.) The rule update, approved in 2024, states donor dams born on or after January 1, 2023, and used for embryo transfer must have DNA testing done including parentage markers and the complete genomic condition bundle for the genetic conditions monitored by the American Angus Association®. This mirrors the longstanding requirements already in place for Artificial Insemination (AI) sires.

Incomplete testing can lead to ET calves being placed in suspense, delaying registration. In the event DNA is unavailable from the donor dam for genetic condition testing, the full suite of known commercially available tests for the genetic conditions monitored by the Association will be required for all offspring applying for registration. Members can review Rule 104 d.2. in the Breeder’s Reference Guide. www.angus.orgIf you have questions about donor dam requirements, genetic testing, or how these rules apply to your operation, the Association’s Member Services team is here to help; 816‑383‑5100 or angus@angus.org.
