Welcome fellow cattlemen and cattlewomen to our 38th annual Simmental Production Sale. We would like to invite you to be our guest and analyze our offering. Whether your operation needs a calving ease high maternal sire or a high growth more terminal carcass sire, you will find and strong selection of exceptional quality potential herd sires that will fill your needs. This year’s offering has all percentages from purebred to ¼ bloods in both black and red. Many are sired by some of the most popular sires in the Simmental, Angus and Red Angus breeds.

Alan, Verlouis, Craig and Kevin Forster

All bulls selling are guaranteed against injury, not death, for the first 60 days from turn out. Death coverage can be added onto your farm policy very economically. We will pro-rate your next purchase based on the how long you were able to use him, then subtract any salvage value you received from the injured bull. If you ever have any questions, concerns, or just want to talk cattle, please give us a call. All cattle sell under ASA’s suggested terms and conditions.

We will have a supplement sheet on our web site as soon as they are available at www.ForsterFarms.com. It will include carcass ultrasound results along with updated weights and carcass EPDs. Remember that EPDs are the most accurate predictor of both performance and carcass traits. If you have any questions about EPDs or cross breeding that would work best for your operation I would be glad to help.

As always, the sale offering is available for your inspection at any time, please call ahead to make sure someone can go through them with you. I encourage you to stop by and analyze our offering, we think that you will be impressed with the selection and overall quality. Our cow herd and herd sires are also available for your inspection in their natural un-pampered environment. If you have any questions or would like help with making your selections please give us a call or stop by the office.

Grayden, Leif and Trace Forster

The sale will be broadcast live on DVAuction.com for those that can’t attend the sale. We thank you for your interest in our program and look forward to seeing you sale day!

Quick Reference to ASA EPDs and $ Indexes Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and effective tool available

for co mparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference between two sires’ EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the performance of their p rogeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of +10 and –5, a 15-unit difference would be expected in their progeny (moving fro m -5 to +10 y ields 15 units).

Key to using EPDs is knowing what units they are expressed in. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPDs, A would be expected to sire 15-pounds more weaning weight than B. If calving ease were the trait, A would be expected to sire 15-percent mo re unassisted births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if B sired 30 assists in a group of 100 heifers, we’d expect A to require 15 assists. A percentile-ran king chart is required to determine where a bull’s EPDs rank h im relat ive to other bulls in the breed. For percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units ASA EPDs are expressed in: All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire scenario. (See below for more details.)

Average Daily Gai n (ADG): Pounds of postweaning daily weight gain.

Back Fat (B F): Inches of backfat.

Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight.

Cal vi ng Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers.

Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight.

Docility (DOC): Percent of offspring achiev ing a docile (1) score.

Maternal Cal ving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving daughters.

Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk.

Marbling (MRB): Marb ling score.

Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth.

Ri beye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye.

Warner -Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a steak.

Stayability (S TAY): Percent of daughters remain ing in the cowherd at 6 years of age.

Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per co w exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See belo w for more details.)

Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight.

Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.

Yiel d Grade (YG): Yield grade score.

$ Indexes: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle. That’s where $ indexes come in. Through well conceived, rigorous mathematical co mputation, $ indexes blend EPDs and e conomics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on your bottom line. The same technology that led to the dramatic progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several decades was used to develop the following $ indexes: All-Purpose Index (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (b red to both Angus first -calf heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remain ing heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield.

Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold grade and yield.

Using API and TI: First, determine wh ich index to use; if you’re keep ing replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described above, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth co mpared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull co mpared to another. For examp le, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an ext ra $6,000 over a +50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 d iff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ran king chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the population. For percentile rankings or more detailed informat ion about EPDs and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org.

Important disclaimer : DO NOT co mpare index values of purebreds of different breeds, hybrids of different breed composition or purebreds with hybrids — our system was not developed to make valid comparison among these groups. Therefore, you must first determine the breed and breed composition appropriate for your herd and use index values to compare animals within that population.
