WHR Breeders WHR Assessments for 2019 were sent in November. If you have not received yours, please contact the ASA office as soon as possible.

1. WHR inventory assessments must be completed and paid in full prior to registering calves born in the current assessment period, (i.e. 2019 assessment on a dam must be completed and paid in order to register her calf born in 2019.)

2. Included with each assessment is the registration of a calf born to the dam in the year she was assessed (if calf is registered prior to one year of age) and a free transfer of said calf (if recorded within 60 days from the date of the sale.) (i.e. cost to register a calf born in 2019 to an assessed 2019 dam will be $0, if calf is registered within 12 months) 2019 ASSESSMENT FEE SCHEDULE: Nov. 1, 2018 - January 9, 2019 $16 January 10 - February 28, 2019 $20 March 1 - December 31, 2019 $25 *Calves born to unassessed dams will incur additional fees as described below

New WHR Non-Assessed Cow Ruling - Effective Jan. 1, 2019 WHR Breeders: as of January 1, 2019, penalties will be added to WHR breeder registrations for calves born to dams not assessed in the year the calf was born. To avoid penalties, assessment of all dams in the herd must be completed by December 31 of that year.

Registration fees of calves born to unassessed dams from previously closed assessment years: • under 12 months of age - $75 • 12-24 months - $95 • over 24 months - $135 *This applies only to animals registered to a dam which was not assessed in the year the calf was born.

= Beef Business

An In-Depth Look at Selection Indices: Part 1 A hot topic in the hallway at the ASA Annual Meeting in Kansas City was the use of selection indices and the tools we have available in the Shorthorn breed.

Selection index technology wasn’t an official topic in the educational forum, but I believe there was a lot of interest and educating going on among many breeders in attendance. There was a lot of good information and philosophy spread amongst breeders, and I hate that everyone couldn’t be in attendance to be a part of these discussions. That spurred the idea to spend a few months writing about selection indices, how they work, and what we have available in the Shorthorn breed at this time for you to use in your breeding programs. In order to get the best view we can at the whole picture, I think it’s only fitting that we start with the basics before diving into the more specific material.

The development of selection indices in the beef cattle industry are a relatively new addition to genetic evaluations. After EPDs came along, the idea to combine some of those genetic predictors into a single figure to attempt to gauge economic and genetic merit led to the implementation of the selection index. A selection index is intended to give a cattleman a relative economic value for an individual animal when in a specific production scenario. Traits that are important to a scenario are identified and included in an equation. The traits

in the equation are weighted based on their economic value in the individual production scenario. Depending on the situation, some traits will be weighted significantly in the calculations, while others may only play a small role in the final output. Simply put, a selection index is like a long, complicated algebra formula, but instead of just X and Y for variables, there are a LOT more, with some indices having nearly enough components to have variables A through Z! Usually, an association will offer several selection index options to their membership to try and meet several of their breeding objectives. Each index is calculated from a specific production situation, and it is important to know and understand those situations when studying an index. An index built for a breeding program of mature cows may not be as effective for you if you are looking to breed heifers. An index built with retained ownership of feeder cattle in mind may not quite fit your needs (or the needs of your customers) if selling calves at weaning is your main objective.

Of course, whatever index is available to you may not be a perfect fit for your operation, but there’s a good chance that one or more indices will fit the needs of your program pretty well.

A selection index is designed to help breeders improve genetic merit without the drawbacks of single trait selection

Matt director of Woolfolk performance programs

that can sometimes occur when using a single EPD to make breeding decisions.

We all know that multiple traits must be taken into consideration when evaluating what makes profitable cattle in any situation, and a selection index is the best tool we have of predicting which animals can work in an environment.

The American Shorthorn Association has four available selection indices available for breeder use in their mating and selection decisions. They include $Calving Ease, $British Maternal Index, $Feedlot and $Fescue. In future issues, I will go into more detail about the components and uses of each index.

Identifying traits of importance, the production scenarios designed for each index, and how we can use them as Shorthorn breeders and commercial seedstock producers will be discussed.

In the ever changing world of beef cattle genetic evaluation and selection, the use of the selection index is growing increasingly popular with commercial bull buyers. As providers of commercial seedstock, I hope that you feel it is part of your responsibility to understand and assist your customers in finding and using the proper selection index that meets their operation’s criteria. Hopefully, I will be able to fulfill my responsibility to give you the information you need to accomplish this goal over the next few = articles!

ASA Genomically Enhanced Heifer Program If you are considering taking advantage of the new ASA Genomically Enhanced Heifer Program (GEHP), then birth weight, weaning weight, and yearling weight data has to be submitted on your heifers in order for them to qualify for the credit towards their DNA testing. If you haven’t seen it already, the GEHP offers $15 credit towards the cost of a uLD or 50K genetic test (the tests that get you GE-EPDs) on yearling females that meet the following requirements: 16

shorthorn country = january 2019

1. Heifer must be born on or after January 1, 2017.

2. 75% of the yearling heifer inventory, with at least 3 heifers submitted, must be tested.

3. All heifers tested must have a recorded calving ease score, birth weight, weaning weight, and yearling weight.

4. Heifers with carcass ultrasound or feed intake records will receive an additional $15/head credit.

If you have heifers that would qualify, you must notify me that you would like to participate; as space is limited to the first 500 heifers enrolled. Since the launch of the program October 1, more than 300 heifers have been submitted to GEHP. If you have been thinking about collecting DNA and genomic information on your heifers, don’t miss out on this opportunity.

“Shorthorn breeders should be proud!

Proof that Shorthorn genetics can compete with the best of the best. Proof that our junior program helps put us in the spotlight against others and helps to show people the added value Shorthorn genetics can provide. Whether it’s in a show ring setting or a commercial atmosphere, if we can prove it, others will take notice,” said Robert Alden, ASA Board of Director and Board Liaison for the Shorthorn Senior Show Committee.

On October 7, 2018, at the Keystone International Livestock Exposition in Harrisburg, Ky., spectators gathered around to watch the annual Junior Supreme Champion Beef selection. This consisted of the 15 junior show breed champions, competing against each other for one Supreme Champion title.

The judges who selected the Supreme Champion were Ryan Rash, Scott Bayer and Scott Bush.

by Cates Farms of Modoc, Ind. On November 11, 2018, the Grand Champions from 15 breeds were exhibited on the green shavings of Freedom Hall in Louisville, Kentucky for the 45th Annual Junior Female Supreme Champion Drive.

The judge of the North American International Livestock Exposition Supreme Champion was Doug Worthington of Modesto, California, the general manager of Vintage Angus Ranch.

Worthington gave the Champion slap to Ashtin Guyer of Robinson, Illinois, with her ShorthornPlus female, SULL H/F Crystal Judy 1471 ET. Guyer’s heifer was bred by Sara Sullivan of Dunlap, Iowa.

“This is a great accomplishment for the Shorthorn breed to have two females named Supreme Champions this year,” said Montie D. Soules, Executive Secretary/CEO of the American Shorthorn Association. “We have had great participation throughout these

shorthorn country = january 2019

national level Junior Shows; in both the Shorthorn and a significant increase in ShorthornPlus. It is exciting to see the growth in quality we continue to have each year.”

ASA Board of Director President, Rick Leone, added, “The two recently selected supreme champions that were Shorthorn and Shorthorn influenced through the plus program represent the dynamic change and appeal Shorthorn Cattle are demanding today. The Shorthorn breed through genomics and performance testing combined with a very successful show ring involvement is reclaiming its place as the oldest most acclaimed British breed to improve carcass quality and maternal ability. Congratulations to the exhibitors on showing great cattle and the success they found in the Shorthorn breed and overall against all breeds.

Today’s Shorthorn will turn heads in a variety of settings and bring success to their owners.” =

Sherman Berg Sherman Berg was born in Osage, Iowa, in 1941. He grew up on a crop and livestock production farm that his brother, Kendrick, continues to operate. He was very active in 4-H, showing cattle and livestock judging.

Before he was called to duty by the Army, Sherman attended Iowa State University. While at Iowa State he was an active member of Block and Bridle and a member of Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity.

Following his military service, he spent 18 years with the American Shorthorn Association in Omaha, serving as junior activities director and editor of Shorthorn Country. In 1965, Sherman married Cynthia Sheridan.

Sherman has provided positive growth opportunities for youth. His commitment to leadership training and development for practice resulted in the formation of the American Junior Shorthorn Association and the first National Shorthorn Youth

Conference. Sherman has taken an active role in the local 4-H programs as both a leader and a volunteer. He hopes his time volunteering will help to provide a wholesome environment for youth to develop skills in responsibility, resourcefulness and leadership.

In 1982, he joined the Knights of AkSar-Ben Foundation as the Director of agricultural activities. He established an event to benefit the youth of Omaha and promote the state’s agricultural background and heritage. He assisted in development of the Nebraska LEAD program. He developed the “catch-a-calf ” program, a mentoring program which pairs members of the Omaha business community with youth.

Sherman has held many leadership positions around his community. He even served on the Shorthorn Foundation for 25 years. Sherman is a leader and Shorthorn enthusiast. =

Keith Moore After World War II, Keith’s parents bought and moved to a farm in Decatur, Ohio where his father bought him his first Shorthorn heifer. He then got involved in 4H and showed his first heifer at the Brown County Fair in 1946. In 1996, the Brown County Fair Board presented Keith with an award for competing for his 50th consecutive year.

In 1955 he graduated from high school and that fall he attended the Ohio State University. After his first year of college he was drafted into the US Army and spent 16 months in Korea before being honorably discharged.

Upon completion of his service, Keith started building a Shorthorn herd and showed on the county fair circuit at the Ohio State Fair. He also participated in state and district sales while starting a family, which includes his wife and three children.

In the early 1970’s, the Ohio Shorthorn Breeders Association and the Ohio Polled Shorthorn Association merged creating the Ohio Shorthorn Breeders Association.

Keith became the organization’s secretary and fieldman. He traveled throughout the state representing the association. Over the span of three years, he managed many sales for the OSBA as well as sales in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Kentucky and Tennessee.

Keith was hired by Pete Swaffer in 1974 to work shows for the American Shorthorn Association. About this time, the association also started publishing a monthly newsletter called Shorthorn Country. In 1975 the American Shorthorn Association bought the ‘Shorthorn World’ and started publishing the ‘Shorthorn Country’ magazine. Keith began working as a field representative for both the Shorthorn Country and the American Shorthorn Association.

The Kentucky State Fair Board decided to start a national show in 1975, and Keith was assigned to work with the board to help get this new effort started. That new national show is now known as the North American International Livestock Exposition.

In 1981, as Keith’s days as fieldman came to a completion, he returned to the farm where he raised tobacco and managed his Shorthorn herd. He sold animals at some select sales and also participated in state fairs ranging from Ohio, to Kentucky, to West Virginia, as well as the NAILE. In 1988 the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association started a Beef Exposition and Keith was appointed as the Ohio Shorthorn Association representative to the Expo board where he still serves today. If you speak with him on the subject, you will hear him declare ‘it is the best Expo going!’ You will still find him in attendance at many of the Shorthorn state and national events.

Whether Keith attends an event with, or without animals, you can bet he will always be promoting the Shorthorn breed!! =

With David’s exuberant interest sustained through youth activities and his father’s lessons, he and the Colonel established a reputable Shorthorn herd. Now 55 years later, Greenhorn Cattle Company is the shared dream and dedication of the third and fourth generations of the Greenhorn family – David, his son Josh, and grandson Kolten.

and

5 years as the program coordinator for their “Best Program”, one of the top youth programs in the United States.

He has also served nearly 20 years on the board of directors of The Ohio Shorthorn Association.

In 1975, he worked with Ohio State University to establish the first Embryo Transplant Center east of the Mississippi. Greenhorn Cattle Company maintains an elite donor arsenal and the majority of the calves born at Greenhorn Cattle Company are a result of Embryo Transplants.

Greenhorn Cattle Company holds 2 sales annually. The first is a production sale in the fall, which has been held for 13 years. The second, an elite frozen genetic sale, started 9 years ago, and is held at the North American each November.

David has advanced the prestige of Shorthorns over a wide geographic area of the United States through breeding, developing and promoting a highly regarded herd. He also provides marketing opportunities for their customers by contributing unwavering support of youth and new breeders. =

Jeff Byers

Jon is a graduate of the Ohio State University where he majored in Animal Science with a minor in agricultural agronomy.

Jon now works with their family farm in OhioByland Polled Shorthorns - which has been a member of the Century Club for decades. The family runs a grass fed herd with an intense focus on consistently developing better Shorthorn cattle with relevance to the commercial and purebred industries.

Jeff is a veterinarian and the owner of a 5-doctor practice, Byland Animal Hospital, LTD. Dr. Byers works exclusively with large animals, mostly dairy and beef; focusing on herd health and reproduction.

He also helps run the farm, Byland Polled Shorthorns, with a herd size of 145 cows. Their mature cows are housed exclusively outside year-round with no access to a barn. They calve outside and

must calve unassisted. Cows are fed only hay and grass to help improve fleshing ability and structural integrity.

Here, they are intent on consistently developing better Shorthorn cattle with relevance to the commercial and purebred industry. Their herd birth weights, weaning weights, and yearling weights have been collected and turned into the ASA database for 5 decades. They collect scan data on their one year-old bulls and utilize EPD’s, $Values, and carcass data in their mating and purchasing decisions. Byland feeds out steers, heifers, and market fed cattle through Boliantz Packing. The calves are sold on the rail with an emphasis on high quality grade beef which are in turn sold to the highend restaurant and market trade industries. They routinely make bull selections based upon carcass merit.

Byland Polled Shorthorns and Paint Valley Farm in Millersburg, Ohio currently enjoy a partnership for the “Maternal Event” Sale which will hold their 3rd annual sale in December of this year.

The partnership is also planning their first annual “A New Brand Bull Sale,” in April of 2019. =

Agricultural Exceptions and Exemptions to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration Hours of Service (HOS) and Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) Rules The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates transportation in interstate commerce for vehicles weighing 10,001 or more pounds (i.e., any of the following: gross vehicle weight (GVW), gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), gross combination weight (GCW) or gross combination weight rating (GCWR)).

Vehicles with a GVW, GVWR, GCW or GCWR of 26,001 pounds or more may require the driver to have a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL).

However, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) provide an exception for the transportation of horses and other animals to shows and events, as well as cars, boats and other similar items. When such transportation is not business related (i.e., the transportation is not for compensation, and the driver is not performing in an underlying business related to the move), the FMCSRs do not apply, even if prize or scholarship money is offered for the event. This exemption includes the Hours-of-Service (HOS) regulations, requirements for use of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) and CDL regulations, unless a CDL is required by the driver’s home state.

Agricultural Exemptions Congress provided four statutory exemptions to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety HOS Regulations for agricultural operations: • Covered farm vehicles weighing 26,001 pounds or more, operated by a farmer or a farmer’s employee, are exempt from HOS and CDL regulations if the vehicle is operated in the State of registration or within a 150-air mile radius of the farmer’s farm or ranch. Covered farm vehicles weighing 26,000 pounds or less are exempt throughout the country.

• During planting and harvesting periods, as determined by each State, drivers who transport agricultural commodities from the source of the agricultural commodities to a location within a 150 air-mile radius (172.6 statute miles) of the source; farm supplies for agricultural purposes from a wholesale or retail distribution point of the farm supplies to a farm or other location where the farm supplies are intended to be used within a 150 air-mile radius from the distribution point; or farm supplies for agricultural purposes from a wholesale distribution point of the farm supplies

78

shorthorn country = january 2019

to a retail distribution point of the farm supplies within a 150 air-mile radius from the wholesale distribution point are exempt from HOS regulations. Additional information is provided in the guidance on the 150 air-mile radius exemption.

• Drivers who transport commercial bees in interstate commerce are exempt from the 30- minute break required by the HOS regulations if there are bees on board the vehicle.

• Drivers who transport livestock in interstate commerce are exempt from the 30-minute break required by the HOS regulations if there is livestock on board the vehicle.

In addition, when drivers are relieved from work and all responsibility for performing work, hours driven may be considered as personal conveyance and are not counted against daily and weekly HOS limits. Additional information is provided in the guidance on personal conveyance.

General Applicability of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs), Including ELDs and HOS If the vehicle or combination of vehicles (truck and trailer) weigh 10,001 pounds or more (GVWR, GCWR, GVW or GCW) and the operation is not eligible for any exceptions, the FMCSRs apply.

Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Exceptions Several ELD exceptions may apply to a carrier’s operation, including, but not limited to, the following: • The short-haul operations exception for preparing a logbook found in 49 CFR 395.1( e) for drivers who operate within a 100-air mile radius of their normal work reporting location for vehicles that require a CDL (or 150 air-mile radius for vehicles that do not require a CDL), and work no longer than 12 hours a day.

• Vehicles that are older than model year 2000.

• Drivers who are required to complete paper records of duty status eight (8) days or fewer in any 30-day period.

Recording HOS when Transporting an Agricultural Commodity When a driver operates a vehicle under an agriculture exemption outside the 150 air-mile radius from the source, distribution point, or wholesale distribution point and the driver does not

qualify for an ELD exemption, the driver may use one of the following options to record their HOS on an ELD: Option 1 A driver can operate within the 150 air-mile radius without logging into the ELD, and then log into the ELD once the vehicle reaches the 150 air-mile radius limit. Driving time within the 150 airmile radius will be identified on the ELD as “unidentified driving” time. The driver will reject the unidentified driving time on the ELD and the motor carrier must annotate the ELD data to explain that the “unidentified driving” time occurred while operating under an agricultural HOS exemption.

Option 2 The driver can log into the ELD when coming on duty and identify the time operating within the 150 air- mile radius with an ELD annotation stating that the vehicle was operating under an agricultural HOS exemption.

Option 3 When operating within the 150 airmile radius the driver can identify the movement of the commercial motor vehicle as authorized personal use on the ELD. If the driver logs into the ELD and identifies the movement as authorized personal use then the driver must also make an annotation on the ELD explaining that the movement is exempt per the agriculture exemption. Upon exiting the 150-air mile radius the driver must then identify the movement of the vehicle as on duty driving.

If When a driver is required to use an ELD, the safety official will review ELD data by transferring it to the Electronic Records of Duty Status (eRODS) software using the telematics or local transfer option. If the ELD data cannot be transferred, the safety official will review the data on the ELD display screen or printout. In accordance with the ELD rule, an ELD is not required to identify driver violations and the driver remains accountable for non-compliance with the HOS rules.

General Applicability of Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) Requirements: A CDL is required if: • The vehicle has a GVWR or GVW of 26,001 pounds or more; or • A combination of vehicles (truck and trailer) has a GVWR or GCWR of 26,001 pounds or more, including a towed unit

with a GVWR or GVW of more than 10,000 pounds.

However, if the vehicle is used for a non-commercial purpose, (i.e., a recreational vehicle, a vehicle transporting horses and other animals, or cars, boats and similar items to shows and events), the driver does not need a CDL, unless required by the driver’s home State. If an underlying business is not related to the transportation, it is considered noncommercial. This includes any unrelated agricultural business, such as a cattle rancher who owns horses for personal use, unrelated to the ranching business.

Employers and drivers who transport horses and other animals or cars, boats and similar items to shows and events, in a vehicle or combination of vehicles weighing 26,001 pounds or more (GVWR, GVW, GCW or GCWR), must comply with their State’s licensing laws, which may or may not require a CDL. A State may exempt farm vehicle operators from its CDL requirements.

A farm vehicle waiver is limited to the driver’s home State, unless there is a reciprocal agreement with adjoining States.

How to Determine if a Driver is Required to have a CDL If a safety official stops a CMV transporting an agricultural commodity (including non­processed foods, feed, fiber, or livestock), FMCSA recommends that the driver explain that the transportation is agricultural related. If it is determined that a driver is engaged in non­agricultural related transportation or the driver does not qualify for an agricultural exemption, FMCSA recommends that drivers use the following questions to determine if they are required to have a CDL: 1. Is the vehicle being used for a noncommercial purpose, such as taking a personally owned animal to a show and there is no underlying business related to the transportation?

If YES, a CDL is NOT required.

2. Does the vehicle or vehicle combination have a GVWR, GVW, GCWR or 􀀚GCW (whichever is greater) of 10,001 pounds or more?

If NO, a CDL is NOT required.

3. Does the vehicle or vehicle combination have a GVWR, GVW, GCWR or GCW (whichever is greater) of 10,001 pounds or more, but less than 26,001 pounds?

If YES, a CDL is NOT required.

4. Does the vehicle or vehicle combination have a GVWR, GVW, GCWR or GCW (whichever is greater) of 26,001 pounds or more?

If YES, a CDL MAY be required.
