Adding Heifer Value Hereford bulls build and fill increasing demand for black baldy replacements. by Wes Ishmael

lack and white is tough to beat when it comes to logic and commercial cattle. “A black baldy is the poster child for a cow, in my opinion. They can cross with any breed and get it done,” says Brent Wasteney of Wasteney Farms near Shannon City, in southwestern Iowa. Hereford-built baldies are in such high demand in his part of the world that Wasteney changed his breeding program 10 years ago. He switched to Hereford bulls for the breed’s docility and what they bring to the baldy mix. “The baldy calves stick out. If you take a set of baldy calves to a sale barn, there are normally mostly black calves or red calves. When a baldy set walks in the ring, it catches their eyes,” Wasteney says. Before getting the dally in front of the slack, Wasteney Farms runs several hundred commercial black Angus cows, breeds them to Hereford bulls and markets all of the calves. The operation runs both spring-calving and fall-calving cows. Wasteney backgrounds the spring calves and markets them at about 700-800 pounds through Creston Livestock Auction in Iowa. He markets his fall calves in May, just ahead of grass season, at Dunlap Livestock Auction. Wasteney prefers the price discovery that occurs via auction trade. It also enables him to establish a personal sale of sorts. Buyers know they’ll have a crack at Wasteney’s spring calves, including his top-tier heifers sorted off as a breeding group, the first Wednesday of each year. Buyers can take as few as 10 head, but pot-load buyers usually win the bidding. “The baldy steers always sell well, and there is usually a price break between heifers and steers, no matter what breed they are,” Wasteney explains. “Our baldy heifers have been in continued on page 16...

Smart Money

by Wes Ishmael

Bulls should be an investment rather than a cost.

Wes Ishmael is the executive editor of Hereford World. He can be reached at wishmael@hereford.org.

Assessing bull value is an inexact science. Mendelian genetics means there is always room for unexpected results. Even if genetic predictions were 100% reliable, it is difficult to calculate the specific value a bull adds or subtracts in subsequent generations when replacements are retained. Never mind the quick-scribbled equations in the margins of a sale book that leave out all sorts of specifics. “Bulls are too frequently treated as an expense. Bulls are an investment that must be viewed in terms of their productive lives,” James McGrann told me years ago. I remember the advice because McGrann leaves emotion at the door during business evaluations. He is the Texas A&M University professor emeritus who pioneered Standardized Performance Analysis in the industry. McGrann owns Ranch Management Economist, a ranch business consulting firm. He will never let you hide behind false dogma. More specifically, McGrann explained investing in a higher priced bull is not necessarily that costly when considering the price relative to the number of calves sired and what it represents in terms of annual breeding cow cost, if the bull contributes to improved production of more market-acceptable calves and increased weaning weight. Those kinds of bulls return added revenue, often added net revenue. Bulls of that ilk can return even more if they sire retained replacements. In general terms, cattle geneticists will tell you that bulls used over the last few years contribute more than 80% of gene flow in a selfreplacing herd. So, bull selection drives genetic progress in commercial herds.

Consider the numbers

McGrann developed a free online decision aid several years ago to help evaluate bull buying decisions from an economic standpoint. It was later updated in conjunction with Oklahoma State University. You can find it at BeefExtension.OKState.edu/files/ Bull_Investment_Cost_Calculator.xlsm/ pages/calculators. The calculator details operating costs and ownership costs relative to bull purchase price and yields annual bull cost per cow and cost per hundredweight weaned, among other data.

High-return producers are more conscious about spending their money on animal health, nutrition and genetics. Those are areas where they will spend more because they know a dollar spent will return more than a dollar. — Kevin Good, CattleFax “Calculated cost per calf and per hundredweight of calf weaned per cow exposed are good indicators to compare bull investments. This provides information on what the market would have to pay to justify paying more for a herd bull that could produce a more market acceptable, higher valued calf,” McGrann explained in the Hereford World article, The Economics of Bulls Investments (March 2013). Plug your own numbers into the calculator. When you account for all the factors from interest rate to maintenance cost to salvage value, it’s amazing how little the annual bull cost per hundredweight (cwt.) of calf weaned can change for a bull priced at $5,500 compared to one at $7,000. For the numbers I used, the estimated cost was $12 per cwt. and $15, respectively. Plenty of ways come to mind for how a bull could return the $3 per cwt. difference and more. That helps explain why high-return producers are willing to spend as much or more on genetics than medium- and low-return producers in the annual CattleFax cow-calf producer survey. “High-return producers are more conscious about spending their money on animal health, nutrition and genetics,” explained Kevin Good, CattleFax analyst and director of industry relations, during the 2021 American Hereford Association educational forums.

“Those are areas where they will spend more because they know a dollar spent will return more than a dollar,” Good said. He explained keeping cows in shape (nutrition and health) is typically worth 2-3% more calves per cow exposed. Genetics with nutrition and health can increase weaning weight per cow. So, more calves and more pounds. The CattleFax survey also asks how much respondents spent for bulls and the value of their calf crop. “It suggests a high correlation. If you spent more on a bull, your calf crop is worth more,” Good said. Obviously, it’s more complicated than that. For one thing, Good noted respondents are not asked where and how they market calves. The strong correlation mentioned above suggests cattle are marketed via programs that reward known genetics and other attributes producers are deliberately addressing.

Bull value in an up market

As you determine the value of bulls purchased this year, keep in mind cattle prices appear able to trend higher for at least the next several years. You can get a short-term view in Market Tracks (Page 50) and Margin Squeeze (Page 24). For longer-term perspective, consider USDA’s early 10-year baseline projections (2022 to 2031) from USDA’s Economic Research Service (ERS). They suggest livestock prices, except hogs, will increase over the next decade, while U.S. crop prices will decline. “Beef cattle and broiler prices are expected to demonstrate a modest increase in the early years of the projection period before leveling off to slower growth, resulting in an average price increase of 8% to 17% over the decade,” according to ERS analysts. As you consider the following prices keep in mind baseline projections focus on longer term underlying trends based on a set of assumptions, according to ERS. Forecasts focus more on predicting actual outcome within a shorter time frame. The USDA baseline-projected fivearea direct fed steer price increases steadily from $121.06 per cwt. this year and $128.75 next year to $142.55 by 2031. Baseline-projected feeder steer prices (basis Oklahoma City) grow from this year’s average of $144.80 per cwt. to $155.50 next year and $171.19 in 2023. From there, the price increases to $181.41 by 2031. That’s with the baseline-projected beef cow herd at 30.56 million head in 2022, declining to 30.53 million in 2023 and then expanding steadily to 31.46 million head in 2031.

Next Year’s Marketing Starts Now

by Trey Befort

Producers spend so many hours caring for, breeding and feeding cattle that marketing considerations can end up last on the list. But developing a marketing strategy is crucial to realizing maximum revenue from the calf crop and all those hours spent raising them. Setting goals and developing a marketing plan early in the production cycle — such as spring calving for fall weaning — enables you to be as prepared as possible when it comes time to sell.

COPELAND & SONS HEREFORDS

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to marketing, with many differences from operation to operation. However, there are numerous tools and resources available to help producers make the most effective marketing decisions. Calculating the breakeven price of the calf crop to be marketed is a solid place to start. One tool you can use for this is the Cow-Calf Breakeven Calculator found in the Tools section at CattleFax.com. It walks you through

a thorough process of determining the breakeven value. Breakeven analysis can also assist in deciding whether to sell the calf crop as weaned calves, yearlings, etc. This same process also can shed light on the opportunity to retain ownership through the finishing phase. Retained ownership can be rewarding, both in terms of economic return and the amount of invaluable information gained from feeding your calf crop. Identify a feedlot partner to

“THE QUALITY GOES IN BEFORE THE BRAND GOES ON”

sit down with and discuss the process and possibilities. Most feedyard managers around the country are more than happy to discuss their programs. They can walk you through the various parts of the process, including risk management strategy, financing programs and marketing opportunities among other things. If you decide to sell your calf crop instead of retaining ownership, another part of effective marketing is considering the selling method you plan to use, be it through a sale barn, via a video market or through a private-treaty, direct trade. Each comes with opportunity and risk. You can achieve additional value when you know your product and analyze which market method may offer the most potential buyers looking for your particular product. Regardless of the market avenue you choose, it is always important to develop a relationship with a trustworthy marketing representative that has your best interest in mind.

Consider premium possibilities

Value-added programs offered through various third-party verification companies are another marketing consideration that may offer additional opportunity for price premiums on sale day. Although multiple companies offer these services, the American Hereford Association partners with IMI Global, an industry-leading provider of verification solutions that can qualify cattle for a number of premium programs. Examples include Non-Hormone Treated Cattle (NHTC), Verified Natural and the Hereford Advantage breed-verified genetic merit program. To learn more about available verification programs visit IMIGlobal.com/beef. Even though premium opportunities exist and can ultimately be realized, keep in mind the cost associated with these programs. Do your homework on the cost versus potential return for participating. Although the examples mentioned above are directed toward how cattle can be marketed as value-added beef, the same kind of comparison applies when determining the net opportunity of participating in specified weaning and vaccination programs. Visit with your marketing representatives to see if they have buyers with interest in specific premium programs to consider. There will always be volatility in the markets so being prepared and flexible will help you make the best decisions possible to maximize value for the cattle you work so hard to produce. Now is a great time to start developing your marketing plan. Trey Befort is the director of commercial programs for the American Hereford Association. He can be reached at tbefort@herefordbeef.org.

What’s New?

Association News and Events

“What’s New?” is a column designed to keep you in-the-know about Hereford happenings. You can also sign up for Hereford Headlines, a weekly electronic newsletter from the American Hereford Association (AHA), and additional Hereford news by sending an email to info@hereford.org. Archived issues are posted at Hereford.org.

Board Announcements Nominate AHA Board directors The AHA’s Board of Directors nominating committee is requesting volunteers to serve a four-year term as a director. Members are encouraged to contact representatives in their respective regions to submit nominees. This year’s nominating committee is: Tommy Mead, chairman Midville Ga. 706-339-0201 Tommy@meadcattle.com Pete Atkins (Northwest region) Tea, S.D. 605-351-9847 petea15@gmail.com David Burns (Southeast region) Pikeville, Tenn. 615-477-5668 burnsda2@gmail.com Les Midla (Northeast region) Marianna, Pa. 724-267-3325 nmidla@pulsenet.com Kyle Peréz (Southwest region) Nara Visa, N.M. 575-403-7971 kyleperez82@yahoo.com Increase in DNA prices The AHA was recently informed that NEOGEN will increase prices on a variety of genomic tests. Because of the increase in costs, the AHA Board of Directors recently voted to increase the cost of the AHA Genomic Profile by $4 to $46 on April 1, 2022. Members will still receive the $4 credit if DNA is submitted through a Tissue Sample Unit (TSU).

Membership News Submit NRSP nominations The AHA is seeking nominations for the National Reference Sire Program (NRSP). This industry-leading program allows producers to test young sires in a commercial setting. Participating sires reap the benefits of acquiring high-accuracy carcass expected progeny differences (EPDs) and performance data. Breeders can

also leverage a sire’s participation in the NRSP as a marketing tool. See Page 56 for results from the 2020-born calf crop at Olsen Ranch in Harrisburg, Neb., a 23-year test herd for the NRSP. Nominations are due March 1. Visit Hereford.org/ genetics/breedimprovement/nrsp/ for full program details and to complete the online application. Online auction raises research funds Thanks to all of the consignors and bidders who helped raise just over $40,000 for the Hereford Research Foundation through the online sale in December. Sale funds — outside of the AHA budget — support continued breed improvement research. This includes research projects conducted in conjunction with universities, private firms and ranches. 2022 Hereford Feedout Program sees record numbers Seedstock and commercial cattle producers enrolled a record 756 head of Hereford and Hereford-influenced steers in the American Hereford Association’s (AHA) 2022 feedout programs. The significant increase in cattle numbers underscores the value producers are gleaning from the opportunity. Participants in the Hereford Feedout Program (HFP), which began in 2020, enroll a minimum of five head of steers that comply with a specified 45-day weaning and preconditioning protocol. They receive feedlot performance data for their cattle throughout the feeding period, as well as carcass data. Similarly, the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) Fed Steer Shootout (FSS) program, begun in 2017, enables NJHA members to enroll a minimum of one steer, meeting the same weaning and preconditioning requirements of the HFP. Juniors also receive feedlot and carcass data for their entries. This year’s FSS includes 200 steers from 74 NJHA members in 17 states.

exposed per year,” says Grady Ruble, former South Dakota State University (SDSU) Extension cow-calf field specialist. “In a crossbreeding system where F1 females were mated to a terminal sire of a different breed, the observed advantage was 23.3%. In this system 8.5% of the heterosis advantage was attributed to individual traits and 14.8% was attributed to maternal heterosis from the crossbred cow. This demonstrates the importance of both maternal and individual heterosis, namely the benefit of the crossbred cow,” Ruble explains in an SDSU fact sheet. He’s referring to seminal crossbreeding research conducted at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center. Goehring has a unique vantage point to assess buyer demand over time. Besides being a Hereford seedstock producer, he and his family run commercial cows, which includes developing and marketing commercial replacement females. The Goehrings also own and manage Keosauqua Sales Co. at Keosauqua, Iowa.

Most are buying baldy females because they wean heavier calves, have a nicer disposition and because of the fertility. Compared to straight black heifers they get 3-4% higher conception rates with the baldies.

Brent Wasteney of Wasteney Farms at Shannon City, Iowa, switched to Hereford bulls a decade ago for their docility and what they bring to building black baldy replacement females.

such demand to go back to the cow herds that they’re selling at the level of the steers, if not better, which is a great niche for us.” Understand that Wasteney steers typically sell firmly at the top of the market. Earning the same money or more than steers for his replacement heifers is a significant economic boon. “Buyers come to these baldy replacement heifers for a reason. They could have kept their own black heifers, but they’re looking for an outcross,” Wasteney says. “Over the last 10 years the interest in the Hereford breed, I think, has picked up around here. I would like to think that we were one of the first ones to get that started in this area. It seems like a lot more baldy calves are being sold.”

Pounds plus fertility and efficiency

“Most are buying baldy females because they wean heavier calves, have a nicer disposition and because of the fertility. Compared to straight black heifers they get 3-4% higher conception rates with the baldies,” says Bill Goehring of Goehring Family Herefords at Libertyville, Iowa. Science certainly supports the notion. “Heterosis is the key to maximizing production efficiency through a combination of individual and maternal heterosis advantages. The combined effects of maternal and individual heterosis yields a 20-28% increase in pounds weaned per cow

It is what producers of a certain vintage would recognize as a community auction. Every Saturday they sell everything from cattle to hogs, sheep and goats, to hay, hedge posts and livestock equipment. Over time, Goehring has seen the market gain for black baldies.

Brent Wasteney of Shannon City, Iowa, prefers big-boned, deep-ribbed, long-sided bulls. “We run cows weighing 1,300-1,400 pounds. If they can’t have a 90-pound calf, they don’t need to be here,” he says.

You see lots more black and white cattle in southern Iowa these days as more commercial producers use Hereford bulls to build black baldy females and more purchase black baldy replacements.

In his family’s own Big Bend Ranch female sale — the first Wednesday every December — Goehring says the baldies typically average $200 more than their black contemporaries. For instance, bred black baldy heifers averaged $2,227 in their annual December sale compared to an average of $2,028 for black bred heifers. When you consider those prices, it helps to understand Goehring replacements are sorted hard, AI-bred to top bulls and carry sexed embryos that will be born in 20-day calving windows. According to Goehring, most black baldy females in his area are bred back to Angus bulls. However, he and Wasteney also see more commercial producers using Hereford bulls on their black cows. “They’re looking to make F1 cows because they will wean more pounds, and they’ll say they’ve never been in pen of black bulls that are as quiet,” Goehring stresses. Baldy users also note added efficiency. “Hereford makes good baldies. They feed out well. We’ve had good luck feeding them out. It seems like our steers usually go to the same places every year so they must hang well on the rail for them,” Wasteney says. Previous and ongoing research document the specific advantages Hereford brings to the baldy mix (see Getting more with less). Goehring adds that his commercial customers find more longevity in Hereford bulls compared to bulls of other breeds they’ve used. “They don’t need to turn them over for six to eight years,” he explains. Depending on the operation that means they’re likely getting at least one to two more years of service.

market cycle, selling their heifers and buying back guaranteed bred replacements. Others believe their females are best and want to keep them in their herd.” Goehring adds herd size plays a role. It’s about 25 head in his area. Although every situation is different, purchasing replacements can have more benefit to smaller herds that might not have the labor necessary to develop them. Go further west where herds are counted in hundreds of head and producers likely believe there is added benefit in keeping replacements acclimated to their specific resources. The Goehrings buy replacement-quality black Angus heifers from trusted Nebraska Sand Hills ranches. Likewise, Wasteney buys all of his replacement Angus heifers from longtime sources in South Dakota and the Sand Hills. continued on page 18...

Buying and building replacements

Debate over whether it makes more sense to buy replacements or develop your own is older than Methuselah’s baby teeth. “I get both comments,” Goehring says. “Some operations believe they are better off buying females, especially through the last “Buyers come to these baldy replacement heifers for a reason,” says Brent Wasteney of Shannon City, Iowa. “They could have kept their own black heifers, but they’re looking for an outcross…It seems like a lot more baldy calves are being sold.” Hereford.org

... Adding Heifer Value continued from page 17

So, both producers have plenty of insight to offer when it comes to considering purchased replacements. “Understand the source, the program and the people behind it. You really need to be knowledgeable of the people breeding the cattle. Some are breeding for cash, not to make better females,” Goehring says. “You’ve got to use genetics you can trust. Find a program with a reputation. Talk to someone who has bought heifers from them before.” Likewise, Wasteney says, Black baldy females are known to wean bigger calves and be more “You need to look at your fertile than their straightbred peers. own operation and what works for you. Buy from someone with consistency. We’ve always tried to have a good reputation and be honest. Represent them to the best of your ability.” Goehring also says it is important to know about the sire used to breed the heifers. “With the data and genomics available to help mate cows, there is no excuse to make a mistake. They should be able to make these heifers 100% calving ease,” he says. With beef cow numbers shrinking and market leverage returning to producers, Goehring anticipates bred heifers being $200-$400 per head higher a year from now.

Besides growing demand for black baldy replacements and Hereford bulls, Bill Goehring of Libertyville, Iowa, believes interest is growing for straightbred Hereford replacements.

If the West and Northern Plains break from the drought, he says prices could be explosive. Inflationary input costs also suggest prices need to be higher. However prices evolve, Wasteney says, “I think there will always be a market for a Hereford bull. On a black cow, it’s unbeatable, in my opinion. Great hybrid vigor, great mothers, and on the marketing end of it, it’s hard to beat a baldy steer and the F1 replacement heifers are always in demand. Good stock sells.”

Getting more with less

The OSU study showed the black baldy cows averaged a better body condition score than the straightbred Angus cows. In fact, the crossbred cows maintained better body condition throughout both phases of the experiment. “On average, we measured just under 2 pounds per day less moderate quality forage intake in the crossbred cows,” Lalman said. “On an annual basis, the black baldy cows would be expected to consume about 725 pounds less forage.” For perspective, some of the more productive native range in Oklahoma produces about 3,000 pounds of forage per acre. However, studies by rangeland ecologists have led to recommendations that cattle producers should aim for only about 25% consumption of available forage by livestock per acre. Doing the math: 25% of 3,000 pounds is 750 pounds. Lalman stresses nobody is saying that raising straightbred animals is a bad thing, and there are many reasons to do so. However, he says simple, planned crossbreeding systems using breeds that complement one another can reduce the cost of maintaining a cow herd and increase ranch output through improved longevity and fertility. “Raising livestock is not, nor has it ever been, a one-size-fits-all solution,” Lalman says. “Cow efficiency is one more important feature in the cattle producer’s toolbox, relative to the decision-making process.” Photo courtesy of Oklahoma State University

“By using the crossbred female and taking advantage of lower feed intake and maintenance requirements of Hereford cattle in our crossbreeding system, we should be able to increase stocking rate or reduce the number of acres required by about one acre per cow-calf unit,” says Dave Lalman, Oklahoma State University (OSU) Extension beef cattle specialist. Lalman is referring to results of an OSU study. “In this experiment, we set out to determine if we could potentially reduce annual cow maintenance costs with Hereford-sired, black baldy cows compared to straightbred Angus cows,” Lalman explains. While there is substantial older data available on the question of heterosis, Lalman says, “There is not much data available on the influence of crossing a breed known for lower feed intake — the Hereford breed — with the popular Angus breed.” More specifically, considerable research exists indicating that a simple crossbreeding system can result in improved cow longevity and fertility compared to a purebred or straightbred system. In fact, years of crossbreeding studies conducted at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center showed an average improvement in weaning weight per cow when a simple two-breed rotation was used with bos Taurus breeds, such as Hereford and Angus. This advantage is known as heterosis or hybrid vigor. Another potential benefit of crossbreeding, and one often overlooked, is to select the second breed in the crossbreeding system based on inherent characteristics that might reduce costs or improve income in the operation. The idea of selecting breeds that complement one another in this way is known as breed complementarity. OSU researchers broke their study into two phases: Maintenance energy requirements and voluntary feed intake. How well do black baldy cows retain body condition compared to Angus cows? What is the forage intake difference between the black baldy cows and the straight Angus cows? “As cattle producers know, cow-calf operations need to have pregnant cows that are able to maintain a good body condition through the relatively harsher winter months while also providing needed nutrients to the as-yet-unborn calf inside them,” Lalman says. “If the cows can do that while consuming fewer nutrients, the reduction in input costs provides an advantage in annual cow costs.”

around food (and non-food) inflation,” according to the MDM report. “It should be carefully noted these higher expected prices reflect both supply-side factors (e.g. higher production costs) and demand strength … It should further be noted the majority (83%) indicate having either the same, or more than normal amounts of meat on hand, indicating both ongoing demand strength and supply availability.” At the same time, U.S. beef exports continued on a record pace through October in terms of both quantity and value. Through the first 10 months of last year, beef export value was 38% more year over year at $8.53 billion, equating to $394.14 per head of fed slaughter. Export volume during the same period was 17% more than a year earlier at a staggering 1.19 million metric tons.

Focus on cost management

to reduce cow feed costs,” Peel explains. “Grazing is the least expensive feed for cows, so this means managing pastures for maximum quantity, quality and duration of grazing and having cows do most of their own feed harvesting. Early planning is necessary to plan annual forage production and grazing management. This must be done in conjunction with plans for cow-calf production, retained stockers and forage use as part of cull cow marketing.” To the extent hay must be used, Peel suggests evaluating opportunities to reduce waste, including testing nutritional value, storage and feeding options, as well as considering the economics of feeding supplemental feeds. “Cost management is the place where producers really need to put their emphasis in 2022,” Peel emphasizes. “But, in general, we’ve got a lot of optimism coming in the market from demand, as well as tighter supplies helping support these markets.”

As bright as the price and demand pictures are, Peel notes higher feed and input costs will challenge cow-calf producer profitability this year. You know the story — everything from drought to supply chain challenges and raw inflation. “The pandemic has significantly altered how our economy functions, with the greatest impact coming from what we consume. Through October, in 2021 Americans spent 18% more on goods and about 1% less on services than they did in 2019. Compounded by a labor shortage, it is easy to see why supply chains have become one of the biggest economic challenges of the pandemic — demand has significantly exceeded the capacity of our existing system,” according to the 2022 Year Ahead Report from CoBank’s Knowledge Exchange. CoBank analysts expect the U.S. farm economy to continue struggling with the ongoing supply chain dysfunction and cost inflation issues that emerged in the summer of 2021. They say historically strong 43818822 P43294080 prices will be more than offset by increases in cost structure for nearly all crop production including row crops, fruits and vegetables, and hay. They do not anticipate any significant pullback in farm-level costs until the third quarter of this year, at the earliest. However, CoBank analysts also explain, “Livestock producer margins should continue to be 43802076 43800204 generally favorable overall, with the effect of shrinking beef cattle supplies finally showing up in higher prices No creep, no special treatment – just high expectations at the producer level.” Closer to home, Peel reminds producers that the commercial cow-calf business Video can be found on For more information, contact: is a means of harvesting forage, which means Dwight Logterman our website: considering ways to increase Home 605-429-3209 • Cell 402-389-1165 the value of forage produced Rob Logterman, Cell 402-389-1328 and harvested. “Part of managing forage for increased value is to utilize grazing better

Collaborating to Improve the Beef Industry’s Sustainability The U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Beef helps stakeholders from throughout the supply chain define, measure and discuss the industry’s environmental impact. By Macey Mueller

Environmental stewardship is a critical component of the beef production system. This is the second in a series of four articles that will highlight the conversations, the practices and the outcomes related to ensuring a long-term food supply and a positive environmental impact.

says the USRSB’s unique structure allows each sector of the beef supply chain to develop its own metrics for each of the indicators. The six high-priority indicators and their respective metrics were eventually combined into Sustainability Assessment Guides (SAGs) for each industry sector and are available on USRSB’s website, usrsb.org. They include site-level assessment tools, decision support or years, the term “sustainable” has been widely used, yet systems, resources and materials that allow individuals to consider vaguely defined throughout the beef industry. That’s not to their own operations and identify opportunities for improvement as say that many ranchers, feedlots and other sectors of the they relate to the key indicators. supply chain haven’t been actively utilizing sustainable practices, “Through the work of the roundtable, we are able to say here’s how they just haven’t always had the means we’re defining sustainable beef using these to describe and validate their efforts with most important things — the indicators, consumers and activists. these are the things we’re going to measure Since 2015, a group representing all — the metrics, and here’s all of the actual sectors of the beef value chain has been detailed information and resources you can working to advance economically viable, use to do that — the SAGs,” Place says. socially sustainable and environmentally “Altogether, we call this the ‘framework,’ sound beef production.

Sara Place

“It is essential that cattle producers and the beef value chain get involved in the conversation to share their stories of sustainability,” she says. “I’ve got five kids who want to take over the ranch someday, and if there’s going to be an opportunity here for them one day, I think it’s important that the industry takes action to ensure a sustainable future for the business.” Lyons-Blythe says that while activists were initially driving the sustainability conversation — influencing retailers and their stakeholders The roundtable is unique because it to make decisions — consumers are now much more aware — and concerned — about how spans the entire beef value chain, so beef is produced and its potential impact on you’ll see some similarities with our the environment. “We can’t just ignore these sustainability goals and those made by other industry conversations — we tried that for a long time; organizations, but they’ll also be different if we don’t respond and get the truth out there to prove that what we’re doing is right and that because they are truly about a whole we are committed to continuous improvement, supply chain approach and trying to then misinformation is going to dominate the conversation,” she says. “It would be tragic if elevate and improve everything from we were limited by decisions that were made when we weren’t at the table.” efficiency and reducing food waste at

Collegiate Cross

Texas A&M University-Commerce’s Super Baldy crossbreeding program captures the value of Hereford’s hybrid vigor and hands-on learning. by Katie Maupin Miller

exas A&M University-Commerce, Commerce, Texas, grew exponentially over the last eight years. But, the commercial cow herd maintained by its College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources had dwindled to 50 head in 2016, following the drought five years earlier. Simultaneously, Kilgore College was dispersing its 100 AngusBrahman cross cows. After striking a deal with the school, A&M-Commerce staff knew they’d pair Hereford bulls with their new F1 and F2 females.

Hybrid vigor

Herefords proved to be the perfect cross on an Angus-Brahman cow herd. By adding a third, unrelated breed to their females, A&M-Commerce maximized heterosis (hybrid vigor). Their Hereford-influenced weaned calves weighed more, yet their baldy replacement heifers proved to be more moderately sized, efficient females than their Brangus peers. “I try to teach my students in animal breeding, there are two reasons why we crossbreed,” says Douglas Eborn, A&MCommerce assistant professor of animal science. “One is for hybrid vigor, and the hybrid vigor we get from the HerefordAngus-Brangus cross is really a benefit and a strength in this breeding program. And then, the second reason that we’re crossbreeding is for breed complementarity — to take the strengths of the different breeds and complement them. I think with the Brahman breed and its role here in this part of Texas, the maternal and carcass qualities that we get from the Angus, and all the added benefits that we’re getting from the Hereford, just seem to really do well.” Not only does their unique gene pool maximize hybrid vigor, but Hereford genetics are also diverse enough to find the perfect sires to complement their current cow herd — calving ease, high growth, curve benders, maternal traits. If a herd needs to improve a specific trait, there is likely a Hereford bull with the genetics to help. “There was a Hereford bull that fit any cow that we had,” says Ryan Doerner, A&M-Commerce farm manager. “Some bigger framed F1s, we put with the higher growth bulls; some of the replacements and heifers, we put the low birth-weight bull on them.” The A&M-Commerce team has built a diverse Hereford bull battery from Hereford breeders in their region, including Iron Lake

Ranch, Cox Ranch, Barber Ranch, Rader Hereford Genetics and GKB Cattle. Furthermore, female additions have been added from Six Mile Creek and Stewart Herefords. A&M-Commerce improved udder quality and milking ability with their Hereford sires. The staff was easily able to select for these traits using the American Hereford Association’s expected progeny differences (EPDs) for Udder Suspension (UDDR) and Teat Size (TEAT). Unsurprisingly, their baldy replacement females had improved udder quality compared to their peers. Perhaps one of the most notable improvements in the Herefordinfluenced calves was their docility and disposition. As a university that prides itself in hands-on agricultural experience for students, the easy-going nature the Hereford genetics lent to the crossbreeding program made classwork and research much easier. “From my standpoint, we’re all about utilizing real-world situations for academic teaching and research programs, for curriculum, for experiences and for hands-on learning,” says Randy Harp, dean of the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources at A&M-Commerce.

I try to teach my students in animal breeding, there are two reasons why we crossbreed. One is for hybrid vigor, and the hybrid vigor we get from the Hereford-Angus-Brangus cross is really a benefit and a strength in this breeding program. And then, the second reason that we’re crossbreeding is for breed complementarity — to take the strengths of the different breeds and complement them. — Douglas Eborn, Texas A&M-Commerce assistant professor of animal science

The value of the Hereford influence is recognized outside of the classroom, though. Their baldy calves fetch top dollar at market — often Oklahoma City, Sulphur Springs, Texas or Paris, Texas — before thriving in a West Texas feedlot. These cattle also work as replacement females in the real world. “The little bit of Brahman influence works well for East Texas’s humidity, and the Angus-Hereford cross has always been a good foundation to get that feedlot performance,” Harp says. The university has termed this successful crossbreeding program the Super Baldy program.

Super Baldy

While Super Baldy may sound like a comic book hero, it’s a common term in Northeast Texas for a Hereford-Angus cross calf with a bit of ear. Super Baldies have a reputation of having the favorable carcass and maternal traits coveted by feeders and breeders alike, along with extra heat tolerance and hardiness, which serves them well in hot, humid climates. These attributes combine to make the cross a great choice to graze A&M-Commerce’s 1,300 acres of East Texas rangeland. “The Super Baldy program here is just extremely functional. It works with what we need at the farm, as far as research and hands-on experience for our students, but it also works as far as marketing and cattle sales,” Doerner says “Driving to work every morning and being able to see the college’s cows from the highway is very appealing. And to me, it shows that if another producer drives down the road and sees our cows — sees Hereford bulls, sees Ultrablack bulls, sees black white-face calves, sees red white-face calves — that this program is really trying to do something and not just having numbers to have numbers. It really shows that we have a direction — a functional direction.” As the university continues to grow its Super Baldy crossbreeding program, staff members hope to continue to increase the numbers and uniformity of their cattle. Currently, Super Baldy females account for between a quarter to a third of the A&M-Commerce’s mature cowherd, and Hereford sires and Cavender-bred Ultrablack Brangus bulls are used in rotation to optimize the heterosis in their commercial cow herd. One day, the university hopes to have enough Super Baldy replacement females to market them to area producers. The school also has goals for students on the A&MCommerce show team to exhibit a uniform set of Super Baldies in Fort Worth Stock Show’s commercial show. Already the program has helped animal science students learn with a hands-on approach to beef cattle production. Plus, the additional cattle have enabled the university to have appropriate sample sizes for beef research projects. Hereford.org

Real-world application

The influence of Super Baldies reaches outside the classroom, too, as A&M-Commerce’s beef production program shows the tangible results of Hereford-influenced cattle. “Our Super Baldy program is a real-world, working ranch and farm that utilizes cows made to suit our area and forces us to work on a budget,” Doerner says. “That sort of hands-on experience really helps our students. In this program, they learn very similar to the way ranchers do it just down the road and all over the country.” Today, A&M-Commerce runs about 120-150 cows depending on the forage available at the college’s research ranch, including their Super Baldy program, F1 and F2 Angus-Brahman cross females and a small herd of registered Hereford cattle. As the college’s faculty and staff look to the future, they hope to continue to refine their East Texas Super Baldies to add value to their academic curriculum and offer these efficient, consistent genetics to other cow-calf producers in their region.

Freemartins pose unique challenges. by Heather Smith Thomas

elivering and raising twin calves can be challenging, especially if the cow won’t accept or can’t feed both calves. If the calves are raised successfully, odds are a heifer born twin to a bull calf is a freemartin — a female with an abnormal or undeveloped reproductive tract, incapable of becoming pregnant. Specifically, 85-90% of female calves born as twins to bull calves will be freemartins, according to Colin Palmer, DVM, Western College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan. Scott Poock, DVM, Extension veterinarian with the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine, explains freemartins are more common in dairy cattle than in beef cattle partly because twins occur more frequently in dairy cattle. He adds there is a higher incidence of twinning in some family lines and breeds. “At the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (USMARC) in Clay Center, Neb., they have a line of cattle with a very high percentage of twins. So, it can be partly due to genetics and to production levels with multiple eggs released, and more chance of male-female combinations,” Poock says.

Why freemartins occur

The freemartin is a result of shared hormone exposure in the uterus in early pregnancy, around 30 days of gestation. At that time, the two placentas surrounding the male and female calves can become closely connected or fused which allows exchange of cells and hormones. “This is the same time some of the organs are starting to develop, including determination of sex,” Palmer says. “The fusion of placentas and sharing blood supply can result in variability in how the sex organs develop. There are two reproductive systems developing — the male and the female. Development of the male reproductive system dominates early on. Through the exchange of cells as well as hormones like testosterone, the male chromosome (XY) also becomes present in the female calf (XX) causing the development of a freemartin heifer with a mixed XX/XY chromosome.” In this situation, the males tend to be normal, but the female embryo is impacted by a male hormone called anti-mullerian hormone (AMH). “This hormone in the male helps in development of the male reproductive tract, but the female is influenced adversely,” says Poock. “She is not a hermaphrodite [with both male and female sex organs], but her tract is not fully developed.”

Freemartin Myths Since a heifer born as a twin to a bull can be a freemartin, some producers logically wonder about the fertility of a bull born twin to a heifer. “There was one report that indicates bull calves might not be fully normal and might have problems when they reach puberty, with testicular function, etc. We have raised a lot of twins here, and many were bulls that were twins to heifers. I was aware of that report, so I followed those bulls to see how they did, and they were all just fine,” Palmer explains. “I never published our results, but we followed them after they were sold and checked on them later.” Even years later, the bull calf twins seemed to perform well. “One fellow phoned me later when he was looking for another bull. He was really pleased with the one he had bought earlier. I looked that one up, and it was one of these twins. The bull was 5 years old and had done very well in that client’s herd,” he says. One common myth suggests that a bull born twin to a heifer will sire mostly female calves. That is not true.

| February 2022

Identifying freemartins

The mix of male and female chromosomes is one reason a freemartin heifer may look less feminine. As she gets past weaning age, she generally looks more masculine, more like a young bull or steer. Freemartins’ pelvises also tend to be too narrow. “The male pelvis is not as big as the female pelvis, and this is also true of a freemartin,” says Poock. Besides often having a more masculine appearance, male hormones can affect freemartin females’ behavior. “These heifers sometimes have masculine You see a cow with a new behavior, and are more likely to mount other calf and write it down that she cattle,” Palmer says. “They don’t have a penis and calved, and that it’s a heifer can’t breed, but in their calf, but you might not know tiny ovaries, they might have what looks like that there’s a dead bull calf testicular tissue.” back in the brush, and that He explains they are probably producing more the baby heifer is a twin. male hormones than a This happens fairly frequently, normal heifer, and the extra testosterone leads to and the rancher doesn’t bullish behavior. “They tend to play a realize the heifer might be little rough, more like a a freemartin. bull, and a few of them can make teaser animals — Colin Palmer, DVM, if a person is doing heat Western College of Veterinary Medicine detection for AI,” he adds. at the University of Saskatchewan The reproductive tract in these heifers is not normal, even externally. “There is generally shorter distance between the anus and the vulva. In a normal yearling heifer there is usually about 3 inches between the top of the vulva and the anus, and in a freemartin these are closer together. The vulva is tiny and the bottom part is often tipped up, with a large tuft of hair beneath it,” Palmer says. When Poock was working with dairies, replacement heifers would often be lined up in the headlocks so he could go down the line palpating and checking for pregnancy. “If I came to a freemartin, my first thought when I stuck my hand in to palpate would be that this is a bull. The pelvis is narrow, and there may be no ovaries or uterus. But then, I looked closer at the back end and realized it was a female, but a freemartin,” he says.

A missing twin

Most producers don’t keep a heifer born twin to a bull as a replacement female. There are instances, however, in which they might not know that a heifer was a twin. “Sometimes, I discover freemartins while preg-checking a group of heifers after their first breeding season. I occasionally find one that doesn’t have a normal reproductive tract. Often, it’s just a vestigial tract — very tiny and undeveloped,” Palmer says. “When I discover a freemartin in a group of heifers and ask if she was a twin, usually the producer claims she was not. The best answer, however, is ‘I don’t know,’ because there might be a situation where one of twin embryos is lost early and the pregnancy continues with just one fetus. Even if you were there at the birth of a female calf — with no bull calf born with her — there might have been exposure to a bull calf embryo in the uterus early in gestation.”

By using an early ultrasound to pregnancy-check cattle, such blood and gonadal cells, but not every cell type in the body will cases of twins are detected, Poock says. express this genotype. If you contact a lab that does DNA testing “In dairies we often do an early ultrasound, and again in another and want them to see if a heifer is a freemartin, the lab will likely month to determine fetal sex or to reconfirm the pregnancy is ask for a whole-blood sample,” Palmer says. He explains a hair still there. You might find twins at 32 days, and then do the next sample may not be adequate. ultrasound at 70 days and find the cow only has one fetus. It might If it’s a nice heifer, especially a purebred, the owner might want be a heifer, but you don’t know if the one that was lost was a bull to ensure the heifer is normal. or if it might have damaged the heifer,” he explains. “Up to 15% of co-twin heifers are normal, and there is no While the loss of a bull twin in utero may make it hard to reason not to keep them as cows,” Palmer says. identify freemartins, it’s a rare occurrence. If you are selling open heifers as replacement females, testing “Generally, if twins get past embryonic stage [40 to 60 days], if provides assurance the heifer twin is not a freemartin. one twin dies, it will eventually cause demise of the other one, but Editor’s Note: Heather Smith Thomas and her husband, Lynn, have ranched not always,” Palmer says. “The female calf you witnessed being near Salmon, Idaho for more than four decades. She also writes cattle articles born may be a freemartin if her twin that died early was male.” that appear in numerous U.S. and Canadian cattle publications, including In other instances, twins born at pasture might not be observed Hereford World. She is the author of numerous books, including “The Cattle at birth and one might die — and you don’t realize the surviving Health Handbook.” heifer is a freemartin. “You see a cow with a new calf and write it down that she calved, and that it’s a heifer calf, but you might not know there’s a dead bull calf back in the brush, and that the baby heifer is a twin. This happens fairly frequently, and the rancher doesn’t realize the heifer might be a freemartin,” Palmer explains. If the heifer is selected as a replacement (because she’s larger, like a male calf would be), her true status may not be suspected or discovered until she does not become pregnant. More producers are calving later in the spring, out on pasture. If a cow has twins and one of those calves is lost, you may not know it. Likewise, if both twins are born, but the cow only mothers one of them, the rejected twin may die or be eaten by predators. “If the freemartin heifer is palpated later, however, we SHOW: Friday, March 4, 2022 • 1 p.m. discover a very short vagina, and her reproductive tract SALE: Saturday, March 5, 2022 • New Market Hall • 1:00 p.m. is almost absent,” Palmer JUNIOR SHOW: Sunday, March 6, 2022 • 8 a.m. says. “When I was teaching veterinary students, they This is a Jackpot Show open to all 4-H/FFA members regardless of residence would put their hand in there and get a very puzzled look because what they were finding felt very tiny.”

Checking for freemartins

There are ways to check a heifer to determine whether she is a freemartin. “Before the advent of DNA testing, we’d wait until the heifer was a little older and bigger, and use a tube to probe the vagina and see if it was normal or short in comparison with herdmates of similar age,” Palmer says. Having a veterinarian palpate the animal to determine if the reproductive tract is normal remains a common way to determine if the heifer is a freemartin. Today, though, there is also a DNA test. “A freemartin has both XX (female chromosome makeup) as well as XY chromosome makeup in her

We purchased a semen package on HH 8392F and will have a handful of ETs selling this year, but this one is probably our favoirte. He’s moderate, with tremendous depth of rib and capacity. A sure footed bull that strides out smoothly. 055X has been a herd bull producer and we believe this calf has a lot of potential.

Market Tracks Cattle prices step higher. by Wes Ishmael

ander through the year-over-year market snapshot on this page and you’ll see higher cattle prices as market fundamentals take more rein from pandemic impacts. The table provides quantitative comparisons using data from USDA reports. The footnotes detail the specific reports and dates. Regional calf and feeder cattle prices were 10-15% higher in the Southeast region, 11-18% higher in the South Central region and 17-19% higher in the North Central region, according to data from USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service. The monthly five-area direct average fed steer and fed heifer prices were up 22%.

More of the nation was abnormally dry or experiencing some degree of drought at the beginning of 2022 compared to drought a year earlier (see maps). According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, 71.8%

of the nation ranged from abnormally dry (D0) to exceptional drought (D4) versus 61.6% at the same time last year. However, 12.4% was enduring extreme (D3) or exceptional drought (D4) compared to 21.1% at the beginning of 2021. La Niña conditions will likely continue through the winter with a 60% chance of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-neutral conditions by late spring or early summer, according to ENSO blog analysts.

Look at the increased USDA Choice and all-fresh beef retail values and you will see the willingness of U.S. consumers to pay more for beef even amid record large beef supplies. At some point, though, those high prices could also pose demand risk. Consider the $394.14 per head of fed slaughter value from U.S. beef exports and you will see international demand strength, as well as the growing importance of that market to U.S. cattle producers.

Bulls evaluated in the National Reference Sire Program offer opportunity. by Shane Bedwell

he American Hereford Association’s National Reference Sire Program (NRSP) is designed to identify and validate the genetic merit of young sires that offer seedstock producers and commercial users opportunities to improve their herds for specific traits and a combination of traits. It also provides ongoing confirmation of the profitability associated with Hereford genetics. Keep in mind proven sires are also evaluated as part of the NRSP to further validate their value, while providing reliable data for comparing young sires to the Hereford population.

Study the tables on this page — performance of NRSP-sired, 2020-born calves at Olsen Ranch in Harrisburg, Neb. — and the bulls’ expected progeny differences (EPDs). I am confident you will find bulls worthy of consideration. As you do, I encourage you to contact the breeders and inquire about germplasm or sons of the sires they are marketing this spring. For reference, the base cow herd at Olsen Ranch for the NRSP is a commercial Hereford herd. Olsen Ranch has provided the breed with phenomenal value and results as an NRSP test herd for 23 years.

The following tables offer the EPD profiles and sire group phenotypic data for NRSP test sires. Table 1. These are the phenotypic averages by sire group for dry matter intake (DMI), average daily gain (ADG), feed to gain (F:G) and adjusted feed to gain (Adj. F:G), which accounts for animal live weight. Table 2. These are the complete performance results from birth to harvest by sire group. It is important to note there are two distinct sire groups analyzed separately. The first-calf heifers were managed differently from the mature cows. Consequently, two separate contemporary groups were formed, and data should only be compared within each group. Table 3. This table showcases the phenotypic averages to complement the phenotypic means of each of the sires in Table 1 and Table 2. Overall, the performance of the sire groups was phenomenal when you consider the gain and conversion aspects of the business. These cattle performed well and underscored the efficiency advantages that epitomize Hereford genetics. Just as impressively, these cattle graded nearly 90% USDA Choice and higher while achieving an average yield grade of 3.4. It is refreshing to see Hereford genetics hit industry value targets for

both quality and yield, especially in today’s cattle feeding climate where most cattle are fed long past their endpoint. Table 4. These are the EPDs for the sires used in the Olsen test. They include all of the observed post-weaning phenotypes and are reflective of the genetic evaluation released Jan. 17, 2022. Because of AHA’s partnership with Olsen Ranch and other test herds, breeders can make better-informed decisions relative to traits of interest.

Nominate bulls and herds

The AHA is seeking nominations for the NRSP. As alluded to in this article, participating sires reap the benefit of acquiring highaccuracy carcass EPDs and performance data. Breeders can also leverage a sire’s participation in the NRSP as a marketing tool. NRSP bull nominations are due March 1. Visit Hereford.org/ genetics/breedimprovement/nrsp/ for full program details and to complete the online application. The AHA always seeks opportunities to build on the impressive group of current NRSP test herds. These test herds gain access to leading-edge germplasm from some of the most progressive Hereford herds in the U.S. If you are interested in becoming a test herd for the NRSP, please contact Shane Bedwell at sbedwell@hereford.org. Progeny of NRSP sires underscore Hereford genetics’ efficiency and the ability to match consumer quality demands. Nearly 90% of the cattle in the recent test graded USDA Choice or higher.

Helping New Calves Breathe Causes and remedies for impaired respiration. by Heather Smith Thomas

ormally, calves born unassisted begin breathing as soon as the umbilical cord breaks and/or the amnion sac comes off the head, uncovering the face and nose. Unfortunately, other situations can impair a calf’s ability to start breathing or keep breathing.

DVM, a veterinarian near Drummond, Mont. “One of the things that stimulates the calf to breathe is the dropping oxygen level in the blood [as when the umbilical cord breaks and the calf no longer has a constant supply of oxygen]. This triggers the brain to tell the calf to breathe. But if we’ve been pulling the calf with constant pressure, One of the things that Sac bound we’ve cut the circulation off to the brain For instance, the amnion sac can remain enough that this trigger isn’t happening, stimulates the calf to breathe intact, often with fluid.

This triggers the not take a breath.

Many If the calf is not breathing, Creelman says clear the fluid away calf losses due to the sac remaining intact are in first-calf heifers. from its nose with your fingers and tickle the inside of one nostril The amnion sac can remain intact following a quick, easy birth, with a clean piece of hay or straw. This usually makes the calf too. Sometimes after an easy birth, the calf slides out quickly, still cough and take a breath. If the calf is unconscious and won’t start encased, and the heifer may not realize she has a new baby and does breathing, you may need to give artificial respiration. not get up immediately. Creelman also shares an acupuncture method. “There is an acupuncture/acupressure spot on the tip of the nose. If this is pressed or poked, it increases stimulation of the central nervous system. This increases heart rate, respiration rate and overall consciousness,” Creelman explains. “We teach ranchers to use a very small diameter needle, like a 20 gauge needle, and poke right into the center of the tip of the nose, giving the needle a little twist. This will stimulate the central nervous system, and works to stimulate breathing.” He adds you can press the spot with your fingernail if a needle is unavailable. Keep in mind, acidosis — a pH imbalance in the calf caused by stress and shortage of oxygen during birth — also can prevent a calf from breathing immediately because it has an adverse effect on proper heart and lung functions. It can take several hours or days for the pH to return to If a newborn is not breathing, Cody Creelman, DVM, a veterinarian in Alberta, Canada, suggests placing the balance in new calves affected by acidosis. According to Skinner, calf in recovery position upright, rather than lying flat, resting on the sternum, with head and neck extended forward. The calf’s front legs are forward in front or tucked underneath. The hind legs are placed alongside one way to tell if the calf is compromised by acidosis is if the the calf with feet toward the head to keep it propped up. calf tries to raise its head and become upright rather than continuing to lie flat.

Giving artificial respiration

If the calf’s heart is still beating, there’s hope to get it breathing even if it is limp and unconscious. If the calf does not start breathing soon, however, the heartbeat becomes weaker, slower and very faint. Heart rate is one way to tell if the calf is in respiratory distress since it drops as the body is deprived of oxygen. Normal heart rate in a newborn calf is 100 to 120 beats per minute. Place your hand over the lower left side of the ribcage, just behind and above the elbow of the calf’s front leg. If heart rate has dropped as low as 40, the calf’s condition is critical; it needs to start breathing immediately. The color of the calf’s gums also offers a clue; if they are grey, blue or colorless, instead of pink, the calf is in trouble. To get the calf breathing, first clear the airways. Use your fingers to strip fluid from the mouth and nose in a suction-like action, like squeezing a tube of toothpaste, or use a suction bulb if you have one. Rub and massage the calf, moving its legs, to help stimulate lung action. If the calf won’t take a breath, even after tickling his nostril with a piece of hay or straw, you’ll have to blow air into its lungs. Lay the calf on its side with head and neck extended. Cover one nostril tightly with your hand, holding its mouth shut to prevent air escaping. Gently blow a full breath into the other nostril, forcing air into the windpipe and lungs. “You can apply light pressure (with your free hand) to the esophagus, just below the larynx a little higher than mid-neck,” Creelman says. “This will help close off the esophagus to ensure that you are not just filling the stomach with air. Don’t push so hard that you close off the trachea, too, because it is soft cartilage.” Also, blowing rapidly or forcefully can rupture a calf’s lung. Blow until you see the chest rise and then let the air come back out. Blow in another breath until the chest rises again. Continue filling the lungs and letting them empty until the calf starts breathing on its own. Usually, once the body tissues become less starved for oxygen, the heart rate will rise, the calf will regain consciousness and start to breathe.

Initially, it was designed for human use as a way to keep the airway open with less chance of filling the stomach with air. “This is often used by emergency medical technicians when they can’t place an endotracheal tube to get air to the lungs,” Pearson explains. “They put the LMA tube in the mouth [in the back of the throat] to provide a protected airway. The tube has a pointy end and a cuff you blow up that seals off the esophagus. It forms a seal around the trachea so that when you bag and provide air it goes into the trachea.” It utilizes a bellows-type mechanism that pumps air through the tube. As researchers continue to find new ways to help compromised calves take a breath, cattlemen can still call on tried and true methods such as the recovery position, the calf’s natural reflexes and artificial respiration to help compromised calves take a deep breath. Editor’s Note: Heather Smith Thomas and her husband, Lynn, have ranched near Salmon, Idaho for more than four decades. She also writes cattle articles that appear in numerous U.S. and Canadian cattle publications, including Hereford World. She is the author of numerous books, including “The Cattle Health Handbook.

Artificial respiration aids

Producers also have access to some tools that can help give artificial respiration to calves. “One is the McCulloch Calf Resuscitator. It has a mask that fits over the nose and mouth and a syringe to push air in and inflate the lungs,” explains Jennifer Pearson, DVM, with the University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. “One drawback is that sometimes air goes into the stomach instead of the lungs,” Pearson says. “Make sure the airway is open and the esophagus closed off, which is most likely the case when the calf’s head and neck are extended. If the head is tucked toward the body, the airway is closed off.” Pearson and others at the University of Calgary are researching other devices to aid in calf resuscitation. One is the laryngeal mask airway (LMA). Hereford.org

Nematodirus (shown here), also known as the thread-necked

intestinal worm, is an unsightly parasite that causes infections marked by diarrhea and loss of appetite − both of which open the door for other internal parasites to cause even more damage.

Choose Safe-Guard® (fenbendazole) when you deworm to take out more profit-eating parasites. SAFE-GUARD is proven to kill 98.7% of worms, remaining powerful and effective, even in the face of parasite resistance.1 Choosing two dewormers from two different classes (like SAFE-GUARD + ivermectin) can help ensure you’re getting the toughest parasites – and helping slow the growing issue of parasite resistance.

Spring 2022 Platinum TPR Breeders

Fifteen Hereford breeders achieved the Platinum Total Performance Records (TPR™) Breeder status for spring 2022. The Platinum TPR program was established in 2018 to recognize breeders who participate in the Association’s Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) program that was implemented in 2001 to create a more accurate database and increase the value of Hereford genetics. The Platinum TPR Breeder is the highest level of achievement when it comes to complete calf crop reporting. Breeders must meet all of

the requirements of Gold TPR Breeder status plus genotype 85% of their calves with a weaning weight submitted. The Platinum TPR Breeder awards are designated two times a year and are awarded each calving season. The selection of Platinum TPR breeders takes place during the process of loading each new run of expected progeny differences (EPDs) in January (spring) and July (fall). The criteria for Platinum TPR breeders will be evaluated two years prior to the award year. The following spring 2022 TPR awards reflect the spring 2020 calf crop.

The following Hereford breeders earned Platinum TPR status this spring: ARKANSAS Triple S Ranch, Grannis

Preventing Calf Scours Management can help tackle infectious and non-infectious causes.

alf scours is commonly due to disease caused by a viral pathogen (infectious cause) but it also can stem from disease caused by bacterial infection or non-infectious causes such as inadequate nutrition. In all cases, associated diarrhea can cause dehydration and can set back a calf’s future productivity.

Calving Essentials Checklist Now is the time to plan for calving. Make sure you have a reliable team, including a trusted veterinarian, on speeddial. Prepare a dedicated calving area with ample space that’s clean, dry and protected from the elements. And, stock up on these calving season essentials. 1. Non-irritant antiseptic and extra bedding: Protect newborn calves during calving season from diseasecausing pathogens with a clean, dry environment. 2. Clean towels: Calving season can be a messy business, be ready to clean it up. 3. Iodine, vaccinations and antibiotics: Work with your vet to create or refine a spring calving or fall calving protocol for your operation.

An ounce of prevention

Effective management and proactive intervention can help prevent and control the challenge. Consider these tips:

4. Obstetrical chains, two handles and mechanical calf pullers: Keep these supplies on hand in case you need to pull a calf. 5. A clean surface for used equipment: Avoid having to pick up tools or equipment from soiled bedding. 6. Disposable obstetrical sleeves: Use a new pair every time. 7. Lubricant: Nothing fancy required. Get the job done with non-detergent soap and warm water.

Prepare for a successful calving season.

8. A calving book for record keeping: There’s no such thing as too many records, be ready on day one. 9. Ear tags and a tagger: Add a spare tagger for good measure.

A smooth calving season isn’t possible without preparation. Make sure you have calving season essentials before the first calf is born. Refer to the Calving Essentials Checklist.

Avoid mixing calves of different ages.

Eliminate the age gap and the potential for older calves to shed pathogens to younger calves by shortening the calving window. Or, consider implementing a calving system that keeps different ages separate, like the Sand Hills Calving System.

10. A sled with ropes and a heater: Protect calves from the elements during extra cold winter weather. 11. Colostrum replacer, electrolytes and an esophageal feeder: Ensure calves get the nutrition they need if the weather is especially harsh, or if they can’t nurse their dam. 12. Extra coveralls and boots: Keep extra hats and gloves handy in case there is unexpected cold weather.

Provide high quality nutrition that meets both cow and calf needs.

It’s important to maintain proper nutrition through the third trimester and into calving season so the cow can provide for and properly nurse her calf. Highquality, year-round nutrition also prepares her to rebreed quickly.

Make sure calves are up on their feet soon after birth to nurse and consume colostrum. Adequate colostrum provides calves with necessary antibodies and provides immunity against pathogens1. If you doubt that a calf has nursed and consumed enough colostrum, provide an alternative source, like colostrum replacer, as an insurance policy.

Observe calves daily.

Evaluate each calf and look for signs of dehydration or calf scours. Symptoms include: • Inactivity, lethargy and weakness • Droopy ears • Sunken eyes • Watery diarrhea and fecal staining

Have a treatment plan in place before calving season.

Even the best management programs can fail. Unpredictable weather and new pathogens can throw your calves off course. Use your local veterinarian to form a treatment plan specific to your operation. Don’t be caught off guard by calf scours during calving season. A proactive plan will help you minimize calf scours and dehydration. Editor’s Note: This article was provided by Purina Animal Nutrition.

Scours can be costly for cow-calf producers, but some simple management tactics can help keep calves healthy.

HEALTH

Unmasking Bovine Coronavirus Both management and vaccination can reduce health effects. by Michael W. Bolton, DVM, MS

ere are a couple of scenarios that might be familiar, unfortunately. There’s a group of baby calves with diarrhea that are sick for a couple of days but then recover without further incident. You move a group of calves from the pasture into a shed or barn. They break with respiratory signs such as coughing, nasal discharge and a slight fever, but recover almost spontaneously. The etiology (causative agent) in both these examples could be the same and may have stemmed from bovine coronavirus (BCoV or BCV). Many times, if attacking alone, BCoV is undiagnosed because it seldom results in extreme illness. However, if these calves progress to severe pneumonia or non-responsive diarrhea, and you have swabs or fecal samples submitted to the lab, BCoV is often present, along with a host of other pathogens such as mycoplasma bovis or rotavirus.

Just the facts • Approximately 90% of cattle worldwide are exposed to BCoV at some point during their lifetime. • The same BCoV can cause bovine respiratory disease (BRD), neonatal diarrhea (calf scours), or winter dysentery in adult cattle.

• BCoV does not stimulate the quick immunity (interferon) that is the body’s first defense against most other viruses. • Specifically, though not exclusively, BCoV targets goblet cells, which line both the trachea and the gut. These are the cells that produce a “mucus mat,” which is the calf’s defense against invasion by bad bacteria. When these bacteria are present at the same time, they have an unobstructed path to destroy lungs (e.g., Mycoplasma) or the gut lining (e.g., rotavirus or Escherichia coli [E. coli]). • Unlike COVID-19, BCoV causes pathology primarily in the upper respiratory tract. It causes little direct pathology in the lungs. However, as stated above, the combination of upper respiratory tract damage, damage to goblet cells in the lungs and other pathology does often lead to secondary bacterial pneumonia. Since BCoV is a single-stranded RNA virus, it can mutate (change) often and quickly, similar to SARS CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. Even though it can mutate often like changing tires at a NASCAR race for different track conditions, the engine (conserved part of virus) remains the same, which is why the same vaccines continue to be effective.

Some viruses like the polio virus have no protective coating or “envelope,” but some viruses like BCoV do. Importantly, for enveloped viruses, the envelope is necessary for the virus to enter cells. However, detergents,

BCoV is pneumo-enteric, which is a fancy way of saying it can affect the gut as well as the upper respiratory tract. Presently, available vaccines are licensed only for the enteric (gut) form.

Good Data; Great improvement Accurate data collection drives improvement on cattle operations. by Leoma Wells

“You can have data without information, but you cannot have information without data.” Daniel Keys Moran

The best genetic evaluations simply start by focusing on data at the operation level.

Getting good data

ata is the lifeblood of any organization, including ranches. While it might seem easy to dismiss the true value of data, data collected from your cattle can propel your operation forward, if it’s used properly. A seedstock breeder recently asked me to acknowledge that we’re asking more of registered breeders. Asking them to take on more risk by sampling younger sires and dams to decrease generational intervals. Asking them to invest more in genomic testing to improve expected progeny difference (EPD) accuracy. Even asking for more data — especially on the more elusive traits. And, this is true. However, genomic service providers, associations and genetic evaluations are also being asked for more by producers. Genomic tools are expected to provide producers with accurate and validated predictions about the genetic potential of an animal. As industry-leading cattlemen and women, it is imperative that you embrace these genetic tools, track genetic progress and benchmark your herd’s improvement, so we can continue to use data to improve upon these tools in the future. Before the latest cell phone is released, tech companies compile user data to determine what features are working well and which ones can be improved. Progress, with all technology, happens in stages and starts with assimilating relevant data. With this in mind, focus on your operation’s genetics, collect data and submit it in a timely manner. Submit data after each collection point, such as calving season, weaning and yearling; this keeps the information accounted for and fresh in your mind when it is entered. The American Hereford Association’s (AHA) weekly evaluations allow producers to access their cow herd’s current data and monitor EPD accuracy levels before and after genomic testing.

Good data starts with collecting and submitting measured data points from a contemporary group. How is a contemporary group defined? According to the Beef Improvement Federation (BIF) guidelines, a contemporary group is a set of same-sex calves that were born within a relatively short window of time and have been managed the same since birth. Each calf in the group has

stranded in an old filing cabinet or farm notebook. If you’ve invested in collecting weight records on your ranch, doublecheck to see that this data is connected to each animal’s registry records as well. This information not only impacts the individual animal, but it also affects any related animals, including, but not limited to, the sire, dam and half or full siblings. Weaning weight records can even increase the accuracy of the Maternal Milk (MM) EPD, due to the ability for the evaluation to better predict the difference in

Tips for data collection It is vitally important that the data contributed to your herd’s evaluation is complete and correct. This ensures the accuracy of your herd’s genetic evaluations. Since data collection takes time, make sure your time is well spent with these tips for data collection. • Look at your operation’s management and labor availability at key data collection points and assign tasks accordingly. This is especially important for more subjective data, such as body condition scores, which is more accurately reported when scored by one person. • Review the data you currently collect and aim to add a measurement for one additional trait this year. • Examine your AHA records for the past three years and note any missing data on the registry’s records that have been recorded on the farm but need to be reported.

received the same opportunity to express its genetic merit for traits of interest1. The ability to manage contemporary groups effectively and collect data points depends on resources, management and/or labor and timing. Contemporary groups never get larger — only smaller — as culling decisions are made throughout the first 18 months of these animals’ lives. It is critical to understand contemporary groups so a strategy can be implemented to collect data along the way. This data is reflected in the EPD profiles.

Collecting growth data

Birth, weaning and yearling weights are all fairly straightforward, but sometimes this valuable data isn’t submitted for registry records and is instead

average weaning weights between a sire’s daughters. Submitting weights in a timely manner allows the AHA to return the best possible evaluation of your herd and the progeny potential.

Ultrasound data

We are often asked if ultrasound is still needed after the advent of genomic testing. The short answer is yes. Ultrasound is particularly valuable when actual carcass data is not available. Ultrasound gives us insight into the carcass characteristics and allows genomics to be strengthened through validation. Contributing ultrasound records on all yearling animals, including heifers, will help improve accuracy for carcass EPDs within your herd.

Mature cow data

As the need for information on females grows, so does the need for mature cow herd data. As with calf data reporting, cow records on every female should be collected at similar life stages to form contemporary groups. For example, collecting weight measurements on a female at birth, weaning, yearling and then after she has weaned her first calf and each year thereafter provides a plethora of insight into your growth traits and mature cow size. These measurements allow the genetic evaluation to better account for environmental conditions and genetic differences. Going one step further and measuring hip height and/or body condition scores each time a weight is taken is encouraged. At calving, contributing udder and teat scores for each female will ensure your cow herd has actual measurements represented in the genetic evaluation. By submitting this information each year, you’ll be able to track, monitor and compare different sire daughter groups using the data within your herd to aid in selection decisions.

Scrotal measurements

Scrotal measurements were once an afterthought and occasionally missed in yearling bull submissions. This is a critical piece of information, especially if you’re selling bulls or retaining replacement heifers. Scrotal measurements serve as a fertility indicator. Data will continue to be a pivotal and integral piece of cattle operations across the country. You know your cow families and herd history, but others without the same insights rely on the data you report. Data submitted to genetic evaluations provides you with an unbiased view of your cow herd. This data combined with genomics gives you the highest EPD accuracy possible for young animals, allowing for faster genetic progress.

How to Define Leadership Shape leaders on your operation by listening to feedback. Legendary coach Vince Lombardi said, “Leaders are made, they are not born.” Yet, if leaders are made, they are shaped by their experiences, education, mentors and more. When we talk about defining leadership, it looks different from one leader to the next. Yet, there are three common facets of leadership that pertain to us in agriculture: selfleadership, operational leadership and industry leadership. • Self-leadership relates to selfgovernance and self-awareness. • Operational leadership is about understanding how to run the business and place the right people in the right role. • Industry leadership is about the obligation to lead by playing a part in innovation, creating dialogue with consumers and cultivating sustainability.

employees and customers? Are you the type of leader that is known in your community as a leader beyond the farm? Take some time to reflect on these three types of leadership (self, operational and industry) — where you are as a leader today, and where you want to go. • Do you want to reorganize how leadership looks in your operation? By beginning with self-leadership, you start at the top. • Do you need to revisit your management structure within your operation? Operational leadership may be where you need to focus on next. • Perhaps, you want to shore up your industry leadership by joining or becoming more involved in trade associations, advisory boards or boards of directors.

Listening to feedback Grow as a leader

Where do you thrive as a leader? Does it come naturally to lead the charge in your operation? Do you prefer to quietly lead by being in service to your

If leaders are made, then one way they grow is through attention to feedback. Giving feedback is often easy for us in agriculture but receiving it can be a different story. Yet, to grow as a leader you

need to listen. One way to receive some feedback is by using assessments. How would it change your operation if individuals had a job that focused on their strengths and let them thrive instead of saddling them with tasks they can’t and won’t ever accomplish? While it is true that there are some tasks that require everyone to pitch in, everyone is different. There are people in your operation who are task managers, people managers and self-guided employees. There are people who love to learn, love to dream up new ideas or love to be the expert and really excel at one thing. Using a simple assessment tool may help you to identify these and more objectively move employees around, even family members. Assessment tools abound. CliftonStrengths offers several assessments including many based upon the book “Strength Finders 2.0” by Tom Rath, which can be purchased for $20. You can also receive customized assessments from independent consultants, which provide a comprehensive view of a leader’s strengths and opportunities for growth.

Start searching and find something that fits your budget and time constraints. Assessments should be in a common language that helps individuals take a look at where they are, what their unique skills and talents are and how they can develop over time. Knowing where your team is strongest allows you to bring in employees in other areas to help your operation succeed in ways you never thought possible, simply by finding where you’re already set up to succeed and capitalizing on it. Relax and be open-minded when reviewing the feedback. Some of it may not be positive. Take some time to sort through the information to look for patterns. It’s important to decide what you want to do with the feedback. You don’t have to listen to all of it, but you should consider the value of this kind of feedback and how it can make you a better professional.

Fetal Programming Series

Fetal Programming and the Recipient Nutrition is essential to getting the most from future genetic potential. by Grace Vehige

“P

roducers must understand that an animal’s productivity begins at its conception and that every day is important, and a producer’s goal is for that animal to have more good days than bad days. That is why nutrition, herd health and management are so critical every day,” says Doug Hawkins, technical support specialist with Purina. Production potential as the fetus develops has to do with fetal programming, which is still a relatively new consideration when it comes to cow-calf production. Briefly, fetal programming is the maternal environment’s impact on a calf both before and after birth. It applies to all pregnant cows, including donors and recipients. “For the most part, I would argue that we should just be treating our recip herd as well or better, in terms of nutrition, than we do our base cow herd because, theoretically, they’re carrying what could be the most valuable animal on the farm or the ranch,” says Patrick Gunn, beef technical sales consultant for Purina. Positively affecting fetal programming revolves around establishing and maintaining a nourishing maternal environment for the growing fetus. That requires providing the dam with adequate, balanced nutrition.

Hawkins emphasizes successful beef female reproduction requires optimum nutrition that meets the needs of protein, energy and trace minerals. “The goal is always to provide adequate supplementation year-round…There are definitely breed and environmental situations to consider, but these are goals that producers should strive to obtain,” Hawkins says.

away. So, I think from both a commercial and seedstock producer’s perspective, there is a huge financial implication associated with [fetal programming].”

Current research surrounding fetal programming provides producers plenty of detail and incentive to consider implications of this phenomenon when assessing their management program. As Gunn alluded to earlier, however, there is much Learning as we go more to learn. “For as much as we know about fetal While he thinks the future of fetal programming, there’s far more that we don’t programming will continue to examine things like know,” says Gunn. But, he adds, “At this point, phenotype, growth potential, and reproductive what we do know is that if we don’t give a dam what she needs, it can have a negative impact on potential, Gunn believes there will likely be more emphasis on other areas such as cattle health. that calf, long term, once it’s born.” “A lot of times, research on the impact of Moreover, Gunn points out some traits, like fetal programming has been focused on those fertility, are economically important but lowly earlier phases of nutrition, whereas health and immune function tend to be developed more toward the end of gestation,” Gunn says. “So, I think we’re going to see a lot more research surrounding health in particular, as it relates to feedlot health and preweaning health.” He believes more emphasis will be placed on how management can be manipulated so that fetuses can be programmed to be healthier, more reproductively fit and ultimately more profitable. Potentially, increasing Nutrition is key to knowledge about fetal creating value programming could also add “If a replacement female accuracy to the expected has inadequate nutrition progeny differences (EPDs) while in utero, then that that predict genetic merit for can alter key nutrients that specific traits. could be vital to gene Gunn believes the impact of expression of key traits Just because an animal has a certain genetic profile does fetal programming is one reason that producers are selecting some producers are reluctant for, such as reproduction,” not necessarily mean it is capable of being expressed. to fully embrace genomicHawkins explains. enhanced EPDs (GE-EPDs).

Take advantage of hybrid vigor by capitalizing on Hereford genetics. The Maternal Advantage program generates females with added longevity, more docility, increased fertility and more profit per year. Can be utilized by producers using Hereford bulls on British-based cows or Brahman-based cows in their breeding program. Producers utilizing the program will have access to a sire EPD summary, added market exposure, replacement selection tools, genetic improvement tools and access to AHA resources, marketing and staff. Visit Hereford.org to learn more and enroll.

Qualifications • Producers must verify that eligible females are sired by registered Hereford bulls with transferred ownership. • Participating bull batteries must rank in the top 50% of the breed for Baldy Maternal Index (BMI$) if used on British-based cows or the top 50% of the breed for Brahman Influence Index (BII$) if used on Brahman-based cows.
