Loving Farms - 2022 Spring Bull Sale Catalog - 3.5.22

12th Annual

Selling 100+ Bulls and Females March 5th in Pawnee Rock, KS. All bulls have GrowSafe Feed Efficiency data and genomic-enhanced EPDs. Now on

1

Fellow Cattlemen, As I write this, the final touches are being put on our 12th edition of this sale catalog. We have seen a monumental amount of change within genetics and our industry over the life of this sale. Change can be what we make it, if we are willing to look positively to the future and embrace it. We know the landscape that we operate will never be larger than it is today. That is why we feel compelled to produce genetics that meet the challenges of producing more product with less numbers and fewer resources.

As you look through the offering, one thing to notice is the number of bulls and females that will sell on March 5th.

Hopefully, you will notice the quality is consistent throughout the catalog. We have calved the largest number of Shorthorn and Shorthorn-influenced calves ever here at Loving Farms. This lends us the largest pool of Shorthorn genetics in the Midwest to draw from and I believe the quality has never been greater.

In an environment of ever increasing input costs, our drive to identify, mate and ultimately make selections to find more efficient genetics has never been greater. It is rewarding to hear the feedback from our customers that have actively pursued the feed efficiency genetics about how this will impact the future of their operations. The excitement is truly next level.

The sale will again be broadcast live with online bidding on CCI.live and they ask that you get registered to bid before the day of the auction. Please plan to be with us Friday for viewing of the sale offering as well as supper Friday evening. As always, we have provided a list of phone numbers available to you for everything from evaluation to bidding. We hope you will utilize these gentlemen in any capacity that you need.

On behalf of the Loving family, we would like to thank you for taking the time to look through the offering. We firmly believe that the genetics represented will meet or exceed expectations.

Sincerely,

2

Overview of EPDs

Carcass Weight (CW): expressed in pounds as a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

Calving Ease Direct (CED): The most important EPD in sire selection for use on heifers. This value is expressed as a percent of unassisted births; the more positive a number is the more desirable.

Ribeye Area (REA): REA measures the difference in ribeye area of a bull’s progeny. REA is measured in square inches. A higher REA EPD is indicative of expected larger ribeyes.

Calving Ease Maternal (CEM): Reflects a bull’s ability to sire daughters who calve unassisted. The value is expressed as a percentage of unassisted births, with a more positive number being more desirable.

Birth Weight (BW): An indicator of birth weight and calving ease.

Larger BW EPDs typically, but not always indicate more calving difficulty.

Weaning Weight (WW): Weaning weight measures the differences in weight of calves at weaning, and is also reported in pounds. A higher WW EPD indicates an expected higher weaning weight.

Yearling Weight (YW): Like other weight traits, YW measure the differences in weight of animals at yearling, and is also expressed in pounds. Higher YW EPDs indicate a higher expected yearling weight.

Milk (MK): the expected differences in a bull’s daughters’ calves at weaning weight due to their milking ability. Milk is looking at how well daughters milk and how that translates to the weaning weights of their calves. A higher MK EPD indicates a higher weaning weight due to the bull’s daughters’ milking ability.

Total Maternal (TM): TM predicts the total difference in weight of a bull’s daughters’ calves at weaning. A portion of this difference in weight comes from the milking ability of the bull’s daughters (MK EPD), and a portion comes from the genes for growth passed from the bull to his daughters and then on to their calves. The TM EPD is calculated by taking ½ of a bull’s WW EPD + his MK EPD. Stayability (ST): The newest addition to the Shorthorn EPD lineup, Stayability is a measure of the percentage of a bull’s daughters that will still be in the herd at six years old. Like CED and CEM, Stayability is expressed as a percentage. A higher ST EPD indicates a higher percentage of daughters staying in the herd.

Backfat (FT): Fat thickness measures the amount of back fat on a carcass. FT is reported in inches. A lower FT EPD indicates a bull whose progeny will have less fat on the carcass than a bull with a higher FT EPD. Marbling Score (MB): evaluation of intramuscular fat deposition in the ribeye as expressed in USDA numeric marbling scores.

Higher values indicate genetics that are expected to marble and have a higher quality grade.

Calving Ease Direct ($CEZ): This index assumes a bull will only be mated to heifers, not cows. The potential profitability of the sire is measured by the incidence of live calves at birth. Moderate mature size is also emphasized in the index, but performance is not a priority.

British Maternal Index ($BMI): This multi-trait selection index attempts to measure a bull’s potential profitability when complimenting the British cow base (Angus, Red Angus, Hereford, etc.). Shorthorn females can likewise be gauged at adding value to British or British composite bulls of other breeds. A balance of growth and carcass traits is desired with a strong maternal component aimed at optimum reproductive efficiency and cow longevity.

Feedlot ($F): $Feedlot places strong emphasis on growth and carcass traits. This multi-trait index assumes the sire will be mated to a mix of heifers and cows and attempts to measure profitability when progeny are sold on the fed market. On the female side, mature size should be monitored closely when selecting for $F. Dam Weaning Ratio (DWR): Indication of dam’s productivity. First number is number of progeny. Second number is weaning index.

His name says it all: Complete. Very few sires have broken tradition here with their names, but we felt from the day he hit the ground 0408 was a transformational sire and he would need a more deserving name. Calving ease, growth, carcass, and feed efficiency; Complete is true to his name in every dimension. Selling full possession and 50% semen interest.

2

A standout since a calf at his powerful dam’s side, Justified has shown the rapid growth that the Okie cow family has made a living on. He balances top shelf calving ease with explosive growth and lands right near the average for feed efficiency. Retaining in herd semen interest.

Probably the best balanced bull in terms of numbers in the sale. He is moderate in nearly every dimension with loads of eye appeal. With double digit CED to solid growth numbers, a 110 ratio for DMI, and 150 ratio for IMF, 0429 is impressively well rounded.

One of the top feed efficiency Answer sons to sell and his maternal half-brother was one of the crowd favorites of the 2021 sale. He is super balanced in his numbers and, at better than top 10% $CEZ, 0420 is heifer safe.

Top 25% CE and YW EPDs that are backed up by a 108 and 105 WW and YW ratios. 0507’s mother is a Pacer Performance dam with a consistent 108 weaning ratio from 5 progeny.

Feeding & Development Done Right We employ the service of John Ney with Nutrition Solutions to help balance the feed rations as well as to monitor the intake and performance of the bulls. The bulls start out on the cow without creep feed and only rely on their mothers for weaning performance.

This allows us to evaluate the performance of the cow as well as the calf. They are weaned on a high forage content mixed ration and allowed to grow at a slower pace to increase frame and give them time to develop. As final selections are made, the sale bulls are moved to a ration containing higher energy while maintaining a higher forage content. These bulls never see a concentrate ration and we feel that is important to a digestive system that will only have access to a forage based system post sale. Exercise is key in the development of a young sire; we feel that it’s important to give them access to plenty of space to move to aid in their growth.

Sell Shorthorn-Influenced Calves for a Premium Let us partner with you!

Marketing at Weaning If your operation typically sells at weaning, we have buyers ready to purchase Shorthorn influenced calves without your typical market distortion (sorts on color, size, etc.). This eliminates yardage, sale expense, and essentially cuts out the middleman.

Partial Ownership to Finish If your desire is to market the cattle to finish weight and maybe your cash flow doesn’t allow for it, we have feeding partners willing to own a percentage of the feeding group. This allows the owner a cash flow up front and still be able to participate in the profitability of finish cattle marketing as well as have the option to achieve any grid based premiums. Feed will be financed to finishing date and settlement will be made at close out. This is a nice option for the producer who has been a typical market at weaning operation that wants to transition.

Retained Ownership Finishing The feed, yardage, and expenses are carried for the length of the feeding period and settled at close out.

You are paid on the net of sale minus expenses. Our feeding partners have been exceptional in terms of rate of gain as well as feed conversion. They also have delivery rights for USPB and other grid based marketing opportunities.

We have maintained a relationship with our feedlot partners for over 20 years and they have fed thousands of head of Shorthorn-influenced cattle. They are very much in tune with the ability of Shorthorn influenced cattle’s ability to gain and convert in the top tier of everything they feed. Allow us the opportunity to help you maximize the full value of Shorthorn genetics.

This Count son’s numbers are impressive enough, but more so now as we lost his 13 year old mother in the early summer. He still weaned a 110 ratio and his 4 time Pacer Performance mother weaned 10 calves with an average ratio of 108. He’s also the second highest F:G bull.

26

Why

Invests in Feed Efficiency Testing

The simple answer, because feed is the number one controllable expense in beef production. That’s right, controllable. High feed efficiency can save huge dollars no matter which sector we are talking about; cow/calf, stocker, feedlot. Loving Farms genetics have a track record nearly two decades long of low feed conversion in their feeding environments. We have sought ways to quantify this back to the individual level, but it requires a substantial investment in time and facilities OR a feeding partner that is trying to make the cattle they feed better as well. This is the evolution for us and our feeding partners at HyPlains Feedyard.

“I’ve been feeding Marty Loving’s calves for more than 20 years. We have 20 years worth of data and his calves convert in the top 10% of the cattle we feed, and we feed some pretty good ones. His investment in the GrowSafe program shows his commitment to his customers and their end product.”

- Tom Jones, Hy-Plains Feedyard

What should we expect?

The first thing is to realize that the bull is only half the equation. Secondly, the females that these sires are mated to will vary as widely as the bulls in this offering. The take away is that this will be a multigenerational process. There will be some successes seen very quickly, others will take longer. Since it isn’t feasible to test every female, the progressive cattleman will select better than average bulls for the components of feed efficiency from now on and the result will be a positive increase in efficiency.

How does feed efficiency impact my operation?

Here are a couple of scenarios to help quantify what a shift in feed efficiency will mean to you. For both scenarios, assume a 20% increase in feed efficiency.

Stocker/Feedlot:

Steers/heifers are placed in the feedlot for an average of 240 days on feed. Assume Dry Matter Intake (DMI) decreases by 20% (50#/hd to 40#/hd) and feed is costing $.049/lb.

240 days x 10% less days = 24 days 24 days x $0.40 yardage = $ 9.60/hd 216 days x 10#/day x $.049/lb. = $105.84/hd

$115.44/hd

x 40 hd Total savings of 40 head calf crop: $4,617.60

Cow/calf:

Spring calving cows are fed for 120 days from January 1 to May 1. Assuming forage hay cost is $70/ton and 24% protein at $500/ton. A 1300 lb. cow eating 2% of her body weight would consume 26# of dry hay and another 3.5# of protein to meet her requirements.

120 days x 5#/day of hay x $.0375/lb. = $22.50/hd 120 days x .7#/day of protein x $.25/ lb. = $21.00/hd

$43.50/hd

x 100 cows Total savings in a 120 day period: $4,350.00

Repeat these savings over a 5 year life span of that one bull and no other trait has that return on investment. *LF genetics for low feed conversion average a 8-10% increase in ADG meaning they reach goal weight faster.

This is the first opportunity that we have offered to own one of our high feed efficiency females. Lass 1432 was right near the top of our replacement heifer pen for F:G, indexing 114, and was on the low end of DMI at a 123 ratio.

Combine the feed efficiency with a Pacemaker sire and a Pacesetter dam, she has consistent and proven genetics as part of her DNA.

71

The prominence of the Kendra cow family is well noted throughout the country. Not well known, there were not many of them here. Here is the opportunity to own one.

72

The feed efficiency genetics of Optimus 7538 are well documented in the sires that are represented in this catalog and it’s safe to assume 1419 carries the same. Put those genetics with surefire calving ease and a YW EPD in the top 10% and you have the makings of a top producing cow. DS test pending.
