MULTI-BREED CALVING EASE
The multi-breed calving ease EPDs are here! You will now see a number for calving ease (CE) and maternal calving ease (MCE) for the SimAngus animals. Please notice that the base changed for the MCE. Which just means that the average is different than before, so make sure to take note of the new average. Here are the current EPD averages for the Purebreds and the SimAngus:

The American Simmental Association and the American Red Angus Association have become partners for the purpose of EPD calculation. In order to make it easier for the customers, they have agreed to work on the same base, so this summer, watch for the EPDs to be on a new base. The only thing you have to think about is to remember to look at the EPD averages to be able to compare the EPDs of each animal to the new average. It will not change the spread between any bulls or the meaning of each EPD.The base number will just be different for each trait. It will actually make it easier to compare animals across breeds. To see the entire percentile tables for the purebreds and the hybrids, log on to www.simmental.org. *Note the EPDs in the catalog are Simmental and NOT Angus. Compare GCCR cattle EPDs to the Simmental breed average not the Angus which are different.

DISPOSITION Quiet cattle with good disposition are a No. 1 requirement around here. We cull strictly and eliminate any animal at any stage if they are nervous or difficult to handle. Calves are socialized from an early age and handled in a quiet and easy manner. And don’t let anybody tell you that a cow has to be aggressive to be a good mother. Most of our cows are gentle but will also be very protective of a newborn. Now studies have come out citing increased pregnancy rates with docile cattle. We have been seeing the studies showing that quiet calm cattle gain better and more efficiently in the feedlots. Thus there is an economic payoff to docility along with the pleasure and increased safety of working with easy cattle.

With feed costs high, in today’s cattle feeding environment , you need an animal that will perform efficiently and hang a carcass that will generate premiums above “average” cattle. We have been feeding Gengenbach Cattle Co calves for the last six years and they have proven that they can do both. The gains are well above the yard average and the conversions are as well. We have been marketing these cattle through the US Premium Beef grid in the spring and early summer. This grid works well for cattle that grade choice and dress above the plant average as do the Gengenbach cattle. The disposition of the cattle is excellent which makes everyones’ job easier. It has been a pleasure feeding Randy and Mary Jo’s cattle.

We would like to introduce Jason Mathis, our new ranch foreman who began in October. Jason has a degree in Animal Science from Black Hills State college in South Dakota. He also has extensive experience in the cattle industry. We welcome Jason, his wife Amanda, his son and new baby to be born in March. We wish Trent Mastre well in his endeavors as he has left to pursue ranching on his own. Trent still helps out on occasion.

BBS Top Cut p274 Herd Bull purchased from Bata Brothers in North Dakota. A growth bull out of the old Top Cut, the #1 bull in the breed for growth. Our Top Cut is one of the top 6 bulls in Active sires for both weaning and Yearling EPDs. His calves are always the top growth and depending on dam may be bigger framed. One thing we really like is that Top Cut is so sound and problem free having run with cows ever since we got him. We are keeping all of his daughters. Use his sons on cows and you will not have any problems.

G A R Prophet Angus bull who is one of the top bulls in the Angus breed for performance and epds plus he is a heifer bull. His performance is for real as 2 of his steer that we sent to the feedlot last year ranked #1 and #3 in gross dollars. Obviously his sons will sire those premiums in the feedlot. We like that the Prophet calves have a lot of capacity and are quiet cattle.

HEALTH STATEMENT It is our desire that bulls and females purchased from GENGENBACH CATTLE will have a long and productive life. With that goal in mind we have implemented the following protocol: All sale animals are ear notch tested for BVD and to this date no positive animals have been detected. All breeding females receive a pre breeding vaccination with a modified live BVD vaccine to help prevent BVD persistently infected calves. At preg check cows are given killed vaccine for BVD, BRSV, IBR, Vibrio and Lepto. Calves receive vaccine for BVD, BRSV, IBR, Pasteurella and Clostridium in the spring and at pre weaning and weaning. Cattle are dewormed in the fall with Dectomax injectable and treated for lice and grubs at that time also. Sale bulls and heifers will be poured with Dectomax prior to sale.

QUICK GUIDE
to ASA EPDs and $ INDEXES Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference between two sires’ EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the performance of their progeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of +10 and –5, a 15-unit difference would be expected in their progeny (moving from -5 to +10 yields 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 more 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-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s EPDs rank him relative 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.) Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat. Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight. Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers. Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight. Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving daughters. Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. Marbling (MRB): Marbling score. Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth. Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye. Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a steak. Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years of age. Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See below for more details.)
Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight. Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight. Yield 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 computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics 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 (bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining 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 which index to use; if you’re keeping 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 compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a+50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed.
