World’s Perspective

Switching Gears

by Joe Rickabaugh

Change can be hard and beneficial.

Joe Rickabaugh is the director of field management and seedstock marketing for Hereford World. He can be reached at jrick@hereford.org.

| July 2021

It was impossible to determine what the future held when the pandemic began. There were plenty of changes, and we learned a great deal. Some lessons were not fun, but others showed us ways to improve our lives. On the personal front came renewed appreciation for the importance of certain aspects of our daily lives — family, spending time together, sitting down for a meal and other often forgotten, but valued, traditions. Hereford World (HW) serves as a business example. The American Herford Association (AHA) and Hereford Publications, Inc. (HPI) decided earlier this year to create an editorial team. The decision stems from a commitment to expand and enhance editorial for Hereford breeders and current and potential commercial users of Hereford genetics. One associated change is that part of the editorial team will work remotely. Katie Miller from Indiana joined the HW staff in January as assistant editor. She brings a wealth of knowledge and editorial experience to the HPI team. Katie is a talented writer, and you will enjoy her frequent contributions to the magazine. She is also a talented editor with extraordinary organizational skills. Cindy Himmelberg became the HW editorial designer in March, taking over after Christy Benigno retired. Cindy has a broad background in editorial design and a passion for doing just that. We are fortunate to utilize her talents for HW. Wes Ishmael from Texas joined the group in April as executive editor. Wes is an established, extremely knowledgeable journalist in the commercial cattle industry. He brings a wide-angle view of the commercial sector and will focus more on commercial HW tabloids and publications that share the many genetic attributes Hereford offers the nation’s beef cattle industry.

Cristin Tavernaro joined HW in May as managing editor. Cristin was a great find for this position. Her talent will focus on the glossy issues. She agreed to join the team while working on her teaching degree and plans to pursue teaching in January; the search for her replacement is already underway. As with any new venture, you wonder if such a change was fitting. Although the editorial team interacts remotely, the first chance to assemble face to face came in June at AHA headquarters. It did not take long to witness the team’s productive synergy. The talent each brings to HW is exciting. I think you will agree as you witness their dedication in this and future issues.

Special thanks

I would be remiss to not thank the rest of the HPI team for their help and contributions through this transition. They all stepped up and did whatever was needed. Special thanks go to Caryn, Alison, Samantha, Sharon and Teri. Enjoy this July Herd Reference issue. It includes a special celebration — the Hereford Storytellers — highlighting breeders who stamped lasting impacts on the Hereford breed and the entire agricultural industry. This industry is filled with great folks and Hereford breeders are among some of the best. You will notice there are even more pages in this year’s edition than last year. Thank you to our breeders, who not only advertise in this issue, but advertise throughout the year. You make the HW possible. Unfortunately, change also can bring sadness. John Meents, territory 5 AHA fieldman for 21 years, announced he will retire at the end of August. His dedication to his breeders and territory is the epitome of a fieldman. A great job, John — thank you!

Celebrate Hereford

by Jack Ward

History made and in the making.

Jack Ward is the executive vice president of the American Hereford Association. He can be reached at jward@hereford.org.

I hope you enjoyed celebrating July 4 and the freedoms we continue to enjoy since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Moving through the summer months, I hope those affected by the widespread drought find some relief. Every issue of Hereford World aims to provide readers with timely and timeless information they can use. For instance, this month you’ll find everything from how breeders use genomics to benefit their own herds and those of their customers to a reminder from the Hereford Women of a legacy movie starring the Hereford breed.

AHA Board Actions

The American Hereford Association (AHA) Board of Directors acted on several issues during its spring board meeting in Kansas City, Mo. You can reference the May/June issue for details about proposed amendments to AHA bylaws regarding remote meeting participation and voting. Here are other highlights from the meeting: • The board voted unanimously to support Craig Bacon, Ark., as a replacement to Ed McMillan on the Certified Hereford Beef © board of directors. • The board unanimously voted to adopt the following rules governing Gene Editing: 1) The AHA may accept registrations of Hereford animals that have an intentional genomic alteration (IGA) produced by genome editing, subject to the following restrictions. Eligibility for registration will be restricted to those animals possessing an IGA that has been appropriately reviewed and approved by the applicable regulatory agency, which is currently the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additionally, animals with an IGA applying for registration will be subject to review

| July 2021

and approval by the AHA Board of Directors, who will consider the impact of introducing the IGA into the purebred Hereford population, informed by scientific and industry standards and practices at the time application is reviewed. 2) Application for registration: Members submitting registration applications for a genome-edited animal must follow all current rules for registration of Hereford animals. Additionally, all animals resulting from genome editing must be parent verified through the AHA official service laboratory. The member applying for registration must provide documentation describing the IGA introduced and the proposed functional difference the IGA creates in the genomeedited animal. 3) Animal naming: PB (Precision Breeding) will appear in the name of all genomeedited animals. • The board voted unanimously to support the following National Show judges: American Royal - Tom Hawk, Ill. North American International Livestock Exposition - Andrew Foster, Mich. Western States Hereford Show Shane Werk, Kan. Cattlemen’s Congress Bull and Female Show - Matt Copeland, N.M. Cattlemen’s Congress Pen Show Sam Shaw, Idaho; Bruce Thomas, Mont.; and Keith Phillips, Ky. Ft Worth Stock Show - Harlan Yocham, Okla. • The board accepted a recommendation from the Member Service Committee to list animals through AHA online systems that are potential carriers of a known genetic abnormality.

Economics say it’s time to produce more bulls to serve growing demand, as long as they’re the right kind.

Last month, I touched on the breed’s extraordinarily strong spring sale season with reported bull prices an average of 19% higher year over year with 5% more bulls sold. That’s an impressive feat, for sure. Based on visits with breeders and representatives, the same strength is evident in private-treaty sales. Lots of bulls are being sold; some breeders are out of bulls to sell. Some say demand is so strong they could have sold an additional 15 to 30 bulls. Momentum is very strong right now, and it is important to keep grinding. The breed has gained strength and commercial acceptance to the point demand for Hereford bulls is pushing the supply. Basic economics would say it is time to produce more bulls to serve growing demand. I agree with this sentiment if we do it the right way with a bull that is in demand. Growing numbers just because you could have sold an additional 20 bulls this year is not the right approach. Rather, I feel the approach we need to focus on is realizing why you earned new customers and why they bought bulls this year. A multitude of factors could have led them to buy a Hereford bull, but the fact remains they either switched from another breed of bull and chose Hereford or they added Hereford to their multi-breed battery. Nothing feels better than getting that customer you have been working on for five years to come and buy a bull for the first time. The only better feeling is to be still selling him bulls five years down the road.

Maintain high selection standards

Getting to this point took a lot of enduring sacrifices. I’m sure there were bulls you cut in the past that could have been sold this year. The temptation to not cut as many bulls ahead of the next sale season has never been higher, in my opinion. But, we have to keep our eyes set on the type and the kind of bulls these commercial producers came clamoring for this spring. Plain and simple, if a bull does not hit that target, then he should be cut. Inevitably, those bulls sold that should have been cut are the ones that come back to bite us in the end. Those kind of bulls fail to deliver what the customer expects. When that happens, the next opportunity to sell another bull to that particular customer could take until your son or grandson is leading your operation. Every operation is different. You have cultivated your clientele to expect the kind of bull they can count on year after year. That’s why their neighbor came to buy a bull this year. They want some of those big baldy calves they have been branding every spring. That visual impression of pounds due to the Hereford advantage is impressive, but we must keep our genetic base moving forward with undeniable efficiency and end-product improvement. Selecting and keeping bulls that fall on the wrong side of progress is a step toward weaker demand. Losing sight of key breed strengths, such as docility and feet and leg structure, sends us down that path. The bottom line is we have to continue to be great stockmen — our breed is filled with them. Happy Fourth of July.

Association News Annual Meeting announcement

The 2021 American Hereford Association (AHA) Annual Membership Meeting and Conference will be Oct. 22-23 at The Loews Kansas City Hotel. The “Come Home to Hereford” weekend schedule will include an educational forum and industry trade show on Friday, Oct. 22, followed by an AHA Board of Director’s hosted social hour. The annual meeting and Hereford Honorees breakfast will take place Saturday morning, Oct. 23 and will honor the 2021 Hereford Heritage Hall of Fame and Hereford Hall of Merit inductees.

The national show award winners will be recognized at the American Royal on Sunday, Oct. 24, and the National Hereford Queen will be crowned for the coming year.

Calling Century and Golden Breeders

A highlight of the Hereford Honorees Reception during the AHA Annual Meeting and Conference is celebrating families who have raised Herefords for generations. The Century Breeder recognition honors families and operations in the Hereford business for 100 years; the Golden Breeder recognition honors those in the business for 50 years.

Queen Service Project The red and white back the blue Each year, the National Hereford Queen conducts a service project during the Junior National Hereford Exposition (JNHE). The

| July 2021

reigning queen, Kaylee McInvale of Lockney, Texas, chose to honor first responders. We’ll let her explain: This project is about giving back to first responders, nurses and anyone else who is on the frontline serving us every day. We’re collecting items to donate to the Kansas City Police and Fire Departments, and to Saint Luke’s Hospital. These men and women put their lives into their work each day, and it’s time to show them our love and appreciation. The hospitals would really like us to make thank-you cards they can hand out to their nurses and staff. I hope each family will consider making several thank-you cards that we can provide. The police and fire departments would love it if we made blessing bags they could hand out or hygiene bags for the homeless. The police officers also said if y’all would like to donate or make food goodie bags for them, they would be very thankful. If each family coming to the JNHE makes three or four blessing bags or hygiene bags, then we will have lots to give to the police and fire departments. Thank you, everyone. I can’t wait to see you at the Hereford Spectacular in Kansas City, Mo.! Please bring your donations to the National Hereford Women’s booth at the 2021 JNHE.

His decades of work in the cattle industry also provide our breeders a different lens through which to analyze evolving issues that impact them and their commercial customers.” Ishmael’s articles and columns have appeared in a variety of cattle business publications over time, including BEEF magazine, where he was a contributing editor for more than 20 years. He also publishes the daily Cattle Current markets newsletter and podcast. “Whether it’s genomic technology, market segregation or nutritional management, the more we learn, the more we figure out what we don’t know,” Ishmael says. “I look forward to continue serving commercial cattle producers and Hereford breeders by working to share information that’s helpful to them. I’m excited to be part of the Hereford team.”

Take Inventory of your Herd

by Laura Loschke

Don’t miss the American Hereford Association fall inventory early bird deadline on July 15. It’s time for 2021 fall herd inventories. The herd inventories were generated last month for Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPRTM) members. Check your mail or MyHerd.org account for your herd inventory. Remember, herd inventories turned in by July 15 receive a $0.25 per-head discount on every female maintained on the inventory. Inventories submitted between July 16 and Sept. 1 will be charged the normal $5.50 per cow, $3 per first-time heifer and $1.50 per bull

Reproductive status codes

NS – Next season NE – Non-exposed CE6 – Calf born dead or died shortly after CE7 – Aborted/premature CE8 – Open, missed out CE9 – Died, calving difficulty CE10 – ET donor dam CE11 – ET recipient dam CE12 – Multi-owned, no calf

Disposal codes

T – Sold with papers 1 – Sold as a breeding animal without papers 2 – Sold as a feeder calf 3 – Died, illness 4 – Died, injury 5 – Died, calving difficulty 6 – Died, old age 7 – Died, other 8 – Culled, inferior production 9 – Culled, open 10 – Culled, illness 11 – Culled, injury 12 – Culled, poor treatment 13 – Culled or died, genetic defect 14 – Culled, bad feet 15 – Culled, poor udder 16 – Culled, prolapse 17 – Culled, cancer eye 18 – Culled, structurally unsound 19 – Culled, old age 20 – Culled, other

(optional). Any inventories turned in after Sept. 1 will incur the $2 perhead surcharge. Any dam whose offspring you intend to register and record weaning performance data through the Whole Herd TPR program must be listed on the current inventory.

Inventory FAQs

Q: I sold a cow and transferred her to someone else’s ownership. Why is she still showing on my inventory? A: If an animal is listed on your inventory but you have sold the animal, then a proper disposal code and date must be reported in order to remove the animal from your inventory. If the animal was sold with papers, American Hereford Association (AHA) staff does not automatically remove the animal from your inventory, because they are not certain if you still have offspring from the animal to register. If you would like to remove the animal, use the disposal code “T – sold with papers” and the appropriate disposal date. Q: If I have embryo transfer (ET) calves out of a dam I do not own, do I have to add the donor dam to my inventory? A: No, you do not have to add the donor dam to your inventory. However, a recipient cow inventory fee for each ET calf will be billed if the calf is recorded with birth performance information (birth weight). If birth performance information isn’t reported, a recipient inventory fee won’t be billed.

Q: I jointly own a dam with someone else, but I don’t have physical possession of the dam and won’t be registering her calf. How do I need to mark her on my inventory? A: If you multi-own a dam with someone else, you will want to make sure you keep the dam on your inventory. However, if you aren’t the member who will be registering her calf, you will want to mark her as “CE12 – Multi-owned, no calf.” Q: I have females that aren’t showing up on my inventory. Why? A: Remember, females won’t appear on the inventory until they have reached at least 18 months of age. Heifers should only be enrolled on the inventory if they’re bred to calve in the season described. In this instance, fall 2021. Keep in mind your reproductive status and disposal code options listed on the chart. Inventories can be submitted electronically through MyHerd.org or via mail or email. As always, if you are having problems navigating through MyHerd you can view more than 20 tutorials on the MyHerd Help pages, or call Customer Service at 816-842-3757. Laura Loschke is the records supervisor and education and information service coordinator of the American Hereford Association. She can be reached at lloschke@hereford.org.

CHB Bites

Hereford Beef Headlines

“CHB Bites” is a column designed to keep you in-the-know about the Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB) program. To get involved with CHB on social media, search Certified Hereford Beef on Facebook and Pinterest, @certifiedherefordbeef on Instagram and @crtherefordbeef on Twitter.

Guest Lecture at Tarleton State University Certified Hereford Beef (CHB) LLC Brand Manager Kyle Caldwell served as a guest lecturer in Drew Cassens’ Meat Merchandising and Marketing course at Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas. During the lecture, he taught students how a branded beef program operates, its value to the industry and the breeds it represents, and how Certified Hereford Beef® stands out from the competition. Caldwell also illuminated the high standards beef carcasses must meet in order to qualify for brands like CHB, as well as the tactics CHB uses to market products. “I greatly enjoy educating others on the value of branded beef programs and the value they bring to the industry,” Caldwell says. “Certified Hereford Beef continues to add value by driving demand for high quality Hereford beef.”

Crawford Hereford Breeders Association celebrates 100 years The Hereford Crossroads reunion took place at the Crawford Community Building, in Crawford, Neb. It was the sixth event organized by Nebraskans for Hereford Heritage, since 2015. The Crawford Hereford Breeders Association was formed in 1920, with Clyde Buffington and Sam Swinbank leading the effort, says member and former sales manager Tom Lemmon. Both men held private bull sales but were interested in

forming a regional association that could draw additional consignors. Eleven breeders were involved with the organization when the first sale was held in March 1920. Without a sale barn, the association held its initial sale at the Crawford City Park, and early sales often took place in livery stables, according to a 1970 story in Nebraska Cattleman. “They used hay bales for seats,” Lemmon says. “It was a little bit Western.” From its earliest days, the association supported local youth, starting a 4-H Calf Club in 1921, allowing youngsters to choose calves from the members’ herds and sell them in the association sale. Lemmon’s father, Cal, was one of the boys who drew lots for calves in 1921. He and fellow club members Beth Riggs, Gilbert Swinbank, Jim Buffington and Lawrence Tollman staged an all-Hereford show for President Calvin Coolidge during his 1927 visit to Ardmore, S.D., with the assistance of the association, according to a Sept. 4, 1947, issue of The Panhandle Digest. The Nebraskans for Hereford Heritage want to continue the tradition of preserving information about the Nebraska Hereford industry. “It is our long-term goal to have our own museum somewhere in the Sandhills,” says Linda Teahon, one of the founding board members. At the end of the first meeting, the breeders each contributed $100 toward the effort and began working on fundraising ideas. Hereford Crossroads reunion was the result. The reunions take place each October at various locations around the state. All former members of the Crawford Hereford Breeders Association, Nebraskans

for Hereford Heritage members, 4-H and FFA members and other interested parties are invited to the Hereford Crossroads. While they work toward their goal of establishing a Hereford museum, Nebraskans for Hereford Heritage has curated an extensive collection of paintings, sculptures, bull sale catalogs and American Herd Bull editions dating back to 1926. A rotating exhibit from that collection is on display at the Sandhills Heritage Museum in Dunning, Neb. which opened in 2017. “Our collection of information is very valuable to the Hereford industry,” Teahon says. “We have to continue to promote our Nebraska beef, and that’s one thing we’re trying to do.” The group also has commissioned four pieces of artwork commemorating the role of landmark bulls in Nebraska’s Hereford history and also aided with the restoration and display of a metal sculpture of Golden Design 14, a noted herd sire owned by Warner Herefords of Waverly, Neb. The sculpture was commissioned by breeder Charlie Warner to honor his prized 1968 bull. Nebraskans for Hereford Heritage has helped the piece be displayed in more than 40 communities. It is currently on display at the Mari Sandoz High Plains Heritage Museum in Chadron, Neb., where it will remain until Oct. 8, when it will be relocated to Crawford for the Hereford Crossroads reunion.

Grateful Leaders

Gracious Servant by Montana Lawrence

It is difficult to sum up what the past three years of serving on the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) Board of Directors have meant to me. When I was elected to the board, my goal was to impact my fellow junior members. Now, I realize that I am the one who has been impacted. I hope that I have made a difference for my fellow junior members, but more than that, I am beyond thankful for the way this experience has changed my life. Even in my wildest dreams, I didn’t believe that I would have a chance to serve as a board member. Frankly, as a young showman, I thought my talents were better served outside the showring, and I almost chose to stop showing

altogether. As I grew older and became more invested in my state association, I realized I cared deeply for the people that showed alongside me. I wanted to have the honor of representing those people on a national level. I still had doubts about my abilities and qualifications, but I knew that “Hereford people” were my people, and I wanted a chance to contribute to our organization.

With gratitude

I could write many articles about the ups and downs of my journey, but I really want to say, “Thank you.” Thank you to the breeders, mentors and friends who continue to donate their finances, time and talent to the NJHA. You are the force that drives this association and causes positive growth for so many young agriculturalists. I know this to be true because I am one of them. Without your faithfulness, I would not be where I am today, and I know countless others who would share the same testimony. Thank you to the staff of the American Hereford Association (AHA). I have had the privilege of working closely with and learning from the amazing people who keep this association running. I have never met a group of people as dedicated and hard-working as our AHA staff. They work non-stop to execute the vision of our junior board, and they are committed to ensuring that our Hereford youth have every opportunity to learn and grow together. Thank you to my fellow board members. I have served on many different teams throughout my life, but I have never been as proud of my teammates as I am of my fellow board members. I have truly never met a group of young people as

professional, dedicated and hardworking as the 11 board members I served alongside. We have had some amazing adventures together, and I consider myself extremely blessed to have such wonderful people as colleagues and friends. Finally, thank you, junior members. So many things have contributed to my personal growth over the last three years, but it was the members I was elected to serve who have contributed the most. From the moment I began campaigning for a position on the NJHA Board of Directors, I have felt fully embraced by the members who make up this association. Juniors, thank you for your time, your commitment, your tenacity and your friendship. It has been an honor to serve you for the past three years. Thank you for believing in me! I am so excited for the future of this association. If the past three years have taught me nothing else, they have taught me that this association is full of world-changers in a world that desperately needs change. Juniors, keep up the good work, and remember, you are capable of anything.

Encouraging Words by Abby Spindle

I could not be more thankful for the opportunity to serve the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) over the past three years. The past few years have been full of challenges; yet, those challenges allowed our association to show resilience and optimism. I could not be prouder to be part of a group of such determined and tough people. With that said, I’d like to leave you with a few words of encouragement.

do not need to be in a leadership position to influence and lead those around you. Leadership is an action. Leadership is motivation and

Breaking barriers

Throughout my life, it has been ingrained in my mind that personal growth is essential. Personal growth should be a priority, and conscious actions should be taken daily to do so. I ran for the junior board the summer after my freshman year of college, knowing this would be a challenging, yet rewarding, opportunity. Coming from a state with very few Hereford juniors, it took an enormous amount of courage to put myself out there in front of many people I did not know. Looking back over the past three years, I could not be more grateful that I broke the barriers of my comfort zone and decided to run for a position on the NJHA Board. It has truly given me the opportunity to challenge myself and grow every day.

Abby Spindle

influence. To lead, you must push yourself and motivate those around you to the highest level. I am beyond blessed to have been surrounded by an incredible group of young leaders. Just as iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. It is important to keep that in mind when choosing who you spend time with.

that said, I cannot thank those people enough who have helped me along the way. I’m grateful for my parents and siblings for keeping things going at the home front, keeping the cattle up to par and always offering a listening ear and words of encouragement. I’m grateful for our courageous and wise advisors, who spend just as much time as we do to benefit the NJHA. Finally, I’m grateful for all those who served with me over the past three years. Countless hours and many brainstorm sessions from the junior board have led to continued growth for our association, and I could not be prouder. Serving on the NJHA Board has been a blessing beyond measure. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to serve an association of this caliber and be a part of the Hereford family.

Reasons to be grateful

Every day, find something for which to be grateful. The past three years have taught me a lot about juggling priorities. With

Everyone is a leader

This journey on the board taught me the true power of influence. Wearing the maroon jacket is not something to take lightly because it is an opportunity to serve and influence those around you. Nearly every person who runs for the board does so because as a young person, he/she looked up to those that wore the maroon jackets. I was encouraged to run for the same reason. However, you

Hereford Women

The Rare Breed

by Erika Evoniuk

An old movie starring Hereford rings true today. What makes a good Western movie? Is it the boots, chaps and cowboy hats? Perhaps, it’s the scenery of the vast countryside with the cattle drives. Maybe, it’s the quick-draw matches in the middle of town after a disagreement in the local saloon. Today, I want to take you back to a movie you might not have seen for a while. It could even be a movie that has skipped a generation and has yet to be seen by today’s Hereford youth. A 1966 movie starring James Stewart and Maureen O’Hara called “The Rare Breed” deserves to be seen by your family. Here’s a short summary to spark your interest. I will refrain from spoiling the ending, though. The movie follows an Englishwoman and her daughter. Together, they bring their polled Hereford bull named “Vindicator” to America.

Giant, the foundation bull of the Polled Hereford breed in the United States, was born in 1879. That was the same era as the fictional Vindicator bull portrayed in the movie, The Rare Breed.

“A bull without horns?” the naive ranchers questioned. At the time, cattlemen solely praised the Texas Longhorn breed. Although the movie is not a 100% true story, it will still have you admiring our beloved Hereford breed. The bull represents what we still see as our children exhibit and work with Hereford cattle. Vindicator was docile, he was trainable, and he was an eyeful. The bull captured what modern-day judges and meatpackers rave about when they assess our cattle.

Hereford breeders, too

The story is about more than the bull. The woman and her daughter possess the traits of today’s Hereford breeders. They have gentle, careful demeanors, when interacting with the bull. These intelligent ladies are confident in Vindicator’s breeding, genetics, stamina and hardiness to withstand adverse weather conditions. They had great pride in the Hereford breed and convinced others to become fans of the

breed, too. This reminds me of the many Hereford breeders that I know, who are proud of their cattle and enjoy educating others about the breed. While it’s not difficult to figure out how the movie will end, you will still find yourself cheering for Vindicator the whole way through. After all, home is where your Herefords are, and we all enjoy coming home. I encourage each of you to take 90 minutes, relax on the couch with your family and enjoy this movie. While the movie is old and the cast does not reflect any of today’s Hollywood stars, it’s a classic to be enjoyed by all ages. I ask once more, “What makes a good Western movie?” In my opinion, a good Western movie includes cattle with red bodies and white faces. A Hereford sighting puts any good Western movie at the top of my list. I hope you enjoy your movie night!

hey hook you with an opening line, “Let me tell you about the time ...,” paired with a sly smile in anticipation of the memories they’ll share. Their eyes shine with fondness and perspective. You lean in a bit closer and are transported to that moment in time, standing alongside them every step of the way. That’s what our authors experienced as they interviewed the people behind this special section of the Annual Herd Bull and Reference issue. These are people who don’t gloat, except to brag on their family. They won’t tell you their path

was easy, but they never complain. They never ask for respect. They earn it. Their journeys in the Hereford breed, the cattle business, rural America, family — life — demonstrate work ethic, pride, passion, humility, resiliency, instinct and faith. We hope you enjoy these snippets of wisdom and history, carefully selected from pages of notes and hours of recordings. Each experience is unique, but shares common ground: Life is for learning. Life is for loving. Life is for living.

Storytellers Good Business

Farmer, leader and great-grandfather Glynn Debter, Horton, Ala., inspires with strong will and dedication. by Diane Meyer

e always dreamed of a cattle farm, but there was something else he had to do first. Back in 1952, a fresh-out-of-high-school, Alabama farm boy hatched a golden egg in the poultry industry. Business took him from Birmingham, Ala., to New York City and back. Glynn Debter’s success was laid on one principle: “If you give good service, and you have a good product and you do people right, that goes a long way in keeping your business. But you gotta do all of it.”

was introduced to two New York businessmen looking to supply eggs to The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P) — the biggest retailer in America at the time. The Debters sent a trial

A good egg

It started with an agreement Glynn’s father, Ross Debter, of Horton, Ala., had with his feed customers. Ross collected eggs and deducted the price from their feed bill, and then supplied the two Bruno supermarkets in Birmingham, 50 miles south. Glynn became a partner in 1953. He contracted with nearby farmers — supplying them with birds and feed in exchange for eggs. They quickly took over the Birmingham market, and Glynn was in the driver’s seat. Eventually, he

But after six years of talks, he sold the business, which boasted 1 million hens, 55 employees, a feed mill, egg-processing plant and a new $1 million egg-laying house (which still stands on nearby farmland).

Now the herd of 200 registered cows plus 50 commercial cows glean national attention. Glynn echoes his grandfather’s wisdom, “Set a goal, but when you get close to it, move it out. Don’t ever get to it; keep moving it out, and keep working toward it.’” From the get-go, Debter Herefords focused on the commercial cattleman. Herefords are well suited for the South’s unrelenting heat and make ideal crosses with the region’s staple — Brahman cows. The first-generation Hereford breeder lights up at the story that jumpPW L1 Domino 6008, pictured in 1968, is credited as the herd bull that turned started the herd. things around for Debter Hereford Farms. “What really got us going good was when we bought our first bull from Jack Cooper in Montana,” Glynn says. “He really turned things around for us.” The family bought their last cow in 2001 and Cooper and his half-brother, Les Holden, developed their own replacements for two decades. were noted performance pioneers and among the first Hereford breeders to embrace the Answering the call Line 1 genetics developed at Fort Keogh While the operation’s and Glynn’s feats are Livestock and Range Research Laboratory in validated through many awards — the Beef Miles City, Mont.

...Good Business continued from page 39

When he was president in 1988, there were small conversations about a merger between the horned and polled associations. A few years after retiring, he got a call from Executive Vice President H.H. “Hop” Dickenson. The two boards had merged, and the directors slated 15 names to be considered as chairman. Glynn had made the list, though he thought the other names were more deserving. He got another call when he made the top 10, and again when the final name was selected. “We’re down to one name — don’t you make us start all over again,” laughed Hop on that call. At the first meeting of the 24 directors, everyone started with introductions. When those wrapped up, Glynn remembers a distinct comment that turned the tide for the Board. “We’re not horned,

the couple had attended. It appeared out of nowhere in his study with a card protruding from its folds, shining under the sun’s spotlight. It was an Easter card from Bobbie, written a couple years earlier. “The Good Lord had moved it from wherever it was at so I could find it,” Glynn says. He pauses, “I’ll tell you another story, kind of like that.” On a dreary January day, Bobbie and Glynn passed a hitchhiker while driving to lunch. Glynn slowed the truck, but Bobbie didn’t think it was a good idea to pick up the stranger. They continued to the restaurant, and as they finished eating, the same man walked in the door. Glynn watched as he counted the change in his pocket and proceeded to order one chicken finger. Glynn says, “The Good Lord said, ‘That’s the second time you’ve had a chance to do something. What are you going to do?’” So, he paid the waitress with extra change and requested, “When I leave tell that man to eat what he wants to.” Months later, Bobbie was in heaven and Glynn was in the hospital. His throat muscles had quit working, and the only option was to put in a permanent feeding tube. When the widowed Glynn had to face this new reality back home on the farm, a distant memory resurfaced. “All of a sudden that homeless man appeared to me, counting that change,” he says. “He was doing the best he could with what he had, and I said, ‘That’s what Pictured (l to r) are four generations of Horton, Ala., cattle producers: Perry, Kanin, Glynn, Emma, I gotta do.

He describes how son, Perry, and grandson, John Ross, are naturals at running the operation, noting their honest and thorough approach to customer service. Perry is proud of his father’s work ethic. “You don’t inherit it, you learn it,” he points out. “It’s not a given, I promise you.” Likewise, John Ross looks up to his grandfather’s dedication to his trade. “Whoever works the hardest will always come out in the end,” he learned from Glynn. “If you put in your time, you’ll get to reap the rewards.” All three cattlemen are proud of the upcoming generation, who are showing interest in the farm and work as hard as any hired hand.

Storytellers Mrs. Full Charge Donna Vanier left a legacy of service to youth and communities. by Grace Jacobson

here are people who talk about getting things done and people who get things done. Donna Vanier was the latter. Her desk once displayed a plaque that read, “God so loved the world that He didn’t send a committee.” Donna was born Oct. 24, 1934, and passed away May 23, 2020. Her legacy of humility and generosity will last for years to come.

“She was a wonderful, funny and loving person,” says Mary Vanier, Donna’s youngest child. “She enjoyed meeting and doing things for people.” Donna grew up in a blue-collar family. After two years at the University of Kansas, she could no longer afford her tuition. She went back home and started a job as a clerk at a local grocery store in Salina, Kan. Lesta Vanier shopped at the store. She was married to J.J. Vanier of the storied CK Ranch, One can’t think of the HYFA Scholarship and the mother of Jack Vanier. Lesta noticed that Donna was program and not think of Donna Vanier. single and would tell Donna about her sons while checking Her philanthropic spirit started years out groceries.

whatever it was,” Mary says. “She would take projects on, figure them out and get it done. They would always be done to an extremely high level.” Despite the busyness of her life, Donna could always find time for her children. She encouraged and helped them with their extracurricular activities, such as 4-H meetings and school clubs.

multiple scholarships to different foundations and organizations. “She really felt an obligation to do something good with all she had,” Mary says.

Helping Herefords

J.J. Vanier established CK Ranch at Brookville, Kan., in 1933. Three years later, the ranch acquired 20 head of Hereford cattle. Ultimately, CK Ranch became one of the largest registered Hereford herds in the nation. Today, CK Ranch is a commercial cowcalf operation managed by J.J.’s grandson, John Vanier. While Donna did not grow up on a ranch, she was committed to helping in whatever way she could. Her responsibilities included everything from repainting barns

CK Ranch won the National Western Stock Show Hereford Carload championship eight times between 1951 and 1965. Here, accepting one of those awards are (l to r) Jack Vanier, CK Ranch herdsman, George Wilson and Donna Vanier.

“Whatever the kids were involved in, you knew she was involved in that too,” says Martha “Marty” Vanier, Donna’s eldest daughter. Education and youth development were close to Donna’s heart since she was unable to finish her college degree. “Neither of my parents actually graduated from college, but they clearly felt that education was important,” Mary says. Marty recalled the time when she was deciding whether or not to pursue a degree in veterinary medicine, which was an often unattainable career for women at the time. Donna encouraged her to pursue her dream. “Mom was always right there with me saying, ‘If this is what you want to do then get it done,’” Marty says. “She was going to make dang sure that we all finished school and did what we wanted.” Donna and Jack’s belief in education led them to help develop and fund multiple philanthropic Donna Vanier was honored by the projects throughout their American Hereford Auxiliary at the 1987 annual meeting in Kansas City, Mo., for lives. Those projects include

and bunks to putting together and mailing sale catalogs. Typically, she would serve dinner to anyone who came over to look at cattle. Donna would prep, cook and serve all the food during the ranch’s sales — typically chili. “You name it, she did it,” John, the middle Vanier child, says. “She did basically everything but get on a horse.” The Vanier family welcomed a variety of visitors, from Hereford breeders of other nations to people wanting to get started with Hereford genetics. Donna made sure they were well fed and entertained. “The [American Hereford] Association (AHA) always had someone coming over that wanted to see an American cattle ranch or spend the continued on page 50...

year learning how to be an American cowboy,” Marty says. Donna and Jack were close friends with the AHA staff and regularly travelled to Kansas City, Mo., to visit and enjoy dinner with them. Eventually, Jack was elected president of the AHA Board of Directors in 1982, just like his father. John joined the Board during the merger between the polled and horned association.

St. John’s blessings

Donna was active in the Episcopal Christ Cathedral Church in Salina. As a boy, Jack went to St. John’s Military School in Salina, which is an Episcopal military school. St. John’s was one of her first philanthropic endeavors. In the 1980s, Warner Brothers came to St. John’s to film a small movie. Donna was able to look after and assist the company with their requests. “The president of the school at the time said he needed someone from the community to babysit the film company,” Mary says. Whenever they needed a specific set for a scene, Donna knew the place to go or person to contact. Her help with Warner Brothers eventually led her to become the school’s first development officer. Her pioneering ways continued. For instance, Donna started a charity auction for St. John’s, when these sorts of events were just becoming a new way of fundraising. “Keith Duckers (president of St. John’s at the time) sent her to Chicago to learn from this guy that had a brilliant new fundraising event, and she came back to start the St. John’s Pictured (l to r) are Craig Ludwig, Jack, Donna and Nancy Ludwig at the first World Hereford auction that became very successful,” Conference in 1980 held in Montevideo, Uruguay. Mary says. Donna later became the board Donna, however, paved her own path in the chair at St. John’s. Throughout the years, the Hereford world. Vaniers assisted with different building projects In 1967, she and six other breeders’ wives on the school’s campus. This included the Vanier founded the Hereford Auxiliary (HA), now the Academic Center and Jack Vanier Hall. The school National Hereford Women. The HA hosted added Donna to its Wall of Fame in 2009. different fundraisers during Donna’s involvement. She also served as president. “The beginning of the auxiliary was all about getting women involved with membership and figuring out what their own mission was,” Marty says. The family’s commitment to the breed and education led them to establish the Vanier Family Scholarship in 2008. Each year 10 youths are each awarded $10,000 scholarships. “One can’t think of the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) Scholarship program and not think of Donna Vanier,” says Amy Cowan, AHA director of youth activities. “Her philanthropic spirit started years ago when the Hereford Auxiliary was founded, and her vision lives on today. Donna was a true matriarch, and it is an honor to help carry on the legacy of such a special lady to the Hereford Donna Vanier (right) and Mary Vanier working the 2002 Catbacker breed and agriculture community.” Auction for K-State Athletics. The 2021 auction sold 140 items to support more than 450 student-athlete scholarships.

After Donna passed, the school placed a plaque outside the chapel in her memory. The chapel was always Donna’s favorite place at the school. St. John’s Military School closed in May 2019. The school is now the St. John’s Military School Historical Museum.

Every Man a Wildcat

The Vanier family is a Kansas State University (K-State) family. Jack went to school there for a few years before returning home. All three children received their degrees from the university. In 1984, Donna started the Catbacker Auction, which is now the annual Powercat Auction. She took her knowledge and experience with charity auctions to help raise funds for the Ahearn Athletic Scholarship. The auction started as a small silent auction on a few picnic tables to support the football team. As part of the fundraiser, Donna asked the community for donations. This grew into the Kansas State Athletics event it is today. In 1988, Jack was named to K-State’s search committee for a new head football The Vanier family (back row l to r) Bob Krause, Marty, Kim, John, (front row l to r) coach.

Faith and Family

Jim Birdwell, of Fletcher, Okla., shares memories of life’s toughest trials and greatest blessings. by Grace Vehige

“

always tried to treat people like I’d like to be treated,” says Jim Birdwell of Fletcher, Okla. “Everybody deserves respect in their life for what they do.” Life is simple as that for Birdwell, a cattleman who stands firm in faith, his philosophies hewn by years of hard work and time spent with family and friends.

The luck of the draw

The Birdwell legacy started with a land drawing and a fiveyear commitment. The family made their home in Fletcher, Okla., by drawing a quarter Jim and Jeanne Birdwell, Fletcher, Okla., began their journey on the ranch in 1972, and they have lived there ever since. section out of a lottery for the land available for In 2007, the town of Fletcher held a centennial settlement. Thanks to the Homestead Act of 1862, celebration and honored families in the area who the Birdwells just needed to live and work the land still owned land gained in the lottery all those for five years before it became theirs. years ago. The Birdwells were just one of two Jim continues to live and farm on the property families honored. originally gained by his great-grandfather.

Meeting Jeanne

Jim attended Oklahoma State University (OSU) to study agricultural education. After graduation, he headed to Union City, Okla., to teach high school agriculture courses. He recalls a quick-kindled friendship with the owner of the local service station, as well as with

the station and washed windows and cars. That is when we met.” Jim and Jeanne married, and in 1972, they made the move from Union City to Fletcher in order to buy the land across from the family’s homestead. They have been there ever since.

Seizing opportunity

Jim taught high school students for five years and then the Lord had other plans for his future. Ed Meacham was the head of the Western field staff of the American Polled Hereford Association (APHA). He called Jim about an opening on the field staff, which he accepted. “I had to sell $20,000 worth of advertising. The drawback was you could buy a page of advertising for about $300 at that time,” Jim says. He served APHA members in Oklahoma and Kansas from 1972 to 1975, before he found his true calling. Jim travelled with Eddie Sims, auctioneer and owner of National Cattle Services, Inc. Sims gave him a new appreciation for the auction business. Fortunately for Jim, Sims’ business expansion came at an opportune time, and he was able to begin work with National Cattle Services, Inc., in 1975. “I never did go to Jim Birdwell’s grandfather, Ben Birdwell, was raised on an official auctioneer the family’s homestead.

sales. One phone call, however, set the tone for his auction business. “We were just getting ready to go to my son’s basketball game, and I’ll never forget. It was February, and the telephone rang. I thought I better answer it because it might be someone wanting to have a sale,” Jim recalls. “I answered it, and it was Jim Leachman.”

As a result of that call, Jim not only had the opportunity to be one of the auctioneers at a major bull sale, but he also made lifelong connections that would serve him well into his future. Last fall, Jim retired from the auction business, but his many years of service to the livestock industry across the United States and Canada are not soon forgotten.

One door closes, another opens

Jim’s first livestock venture began with a stocker operation. In the early 1970s, he says running stocker cattle was the ideal business. “It was working out good for me because I was going to sales and stock shows and all that kind of stuff trying to sell advertising,” Jim says. Then came 1973. Food inflation was rampant, including the price of beef. Many cattle producers, like Jim, figured the longer they held their cattle, the higher the sale price. No one could have guessed that in March that year, president Richard Nixon would impose ceilings on the wholesale and retail The Birdwell family legacy lives on through children and grandchildren (l to r:) Joel, Judson, prices of beef and other Jhett, Jarret and Bridget Birdwell; Jim and Jeanne Birdwell; and Pete, Jamie, Trevor and meats.

Orville Sweet “I brought them down here, and they put me in the registered cattle business. We have been in the business since 1973, and my kids have been raised up in it. The rest of it is history, I guess,” Jim says with a smile.

The ties that bind

The cattle business has always been a stronghold for the Birdwell family. Joel and Jamie, the two Birdwell children, both attended Oklahoma State University, just like Jim and Jeanne, and stayed connected to the cattle business upon graduation. Jamie married Pete White of Sterling, Okla., who has worked closely with TransOva and Reprologix over the years. Joel married his wife, Bridget, and they currently reside in Kingfisher, Okla. Joel’s family works alongside the Birdwell Ranch in Fletcher to produce Hereford and Angus cattle for the commercial buyer. “It has taken a long time, since 1973, to get us to a point that we felt like we had accomplished some things we wanted to,” Jim says. “You never get them exactly the way you want them, but we’ve had some success the last few years or so. We started selling commercial bulls, and they are

working good for people. Repeat customers are all you can ask for.” The Birdwell children have maintained a close connection with the Hereford breed, including being active in the junior association and Joel serving as the 2020 American Hereford Association President. With the five Birdwell grandchildren growing up around the business, the legacy of the family lives on.

A people business

As any cattleman knows, the business has its ups and downs. “This is where the good Lord put me,” says Jim with a laugh. Orville Sweet, who served as the APHA executive secretary from 1963-1979 and as one of Birdwell’s good friends, imparted advice that has influenced many of Jim’s decisions over the years. “He always reminded us that the registered business was a cattle business, but cattle were a by-product of the people. And I never forgot that,” Jim recalls. “I tried to use that same philosophy. Even though I did like good cattle and all of that, the people were still the most important part of all of it.”

Birdwell admires his herd summering beneath the slick hills of Oklahoma.

Grace with Grit Lilla Bell: Hereford Lady of the West by Kim Holt

Mom and I would spend hours driving through the purebreds sometimes talking about the cattle, sometimes not talking at all. On the warm spring days I would turn off the side-by-side (UTV) and watch the cows graze. The calves would always walk up to Mom’s side. Mom’s eyes would sparkle, she would smile, put her hand out and the calf would smell her hand or lick it. How many thousands of times did Mom have that encounter in her life and every time it was a special moment. I felt her love for her Hereford cattle like this all the time. I was blessed to have shared her wisdom of life and cattle, but the emotion behind actions that you can’t describe were at the surface when we were checking our cattle. She truly loved her Hereford cattle and was quick to pull out pictures from her purse and show everyone her life’s work. — son Dan Bell. He and his wife, Theresa, and their son, Shane, continue Lilla’s legacy and genetics, raising purebred Herefords.

| July 2021

illa Bell’s cattle friends were many and their respect for this Western lady was even greater. She was the breeder, caretaker, record keeper and labor behind the registered cattle at Bell Ranch. She built her Hereford cow herd from the ground up at Paradise Valley, Nev. Her family and the realworld cattle here were, as she put it, “her loves.” “Lilla was really a cattle person — and I don’t say that lightly,” says Lucy Rechel of Snyder Livestock Company, Inc. (SLC) at Yerington, Nev. “There are some people who are good at some aspects of the cattle business…but Lilla put it all together, in my opinion. She understood genetics and she understood genetics that worked in a pretty tough situation in Paradise Valley. She had a super high level of integrity and hard work.”

Blazing trails

Lilla Bell’s Hereford story began in her youth. Although she grew up in two different worlds — her father worked in San Francisco and her mom had a ranch near Hollister, Calif. — she knew early on that ranching was her life’s calling. She and her siblings spent every spare moment of time at the ranch, where there were commercial Hereford cattle. Lilla’s calling led her to be a trailblazer in production agriculture. She received a bachelor’s degree in animal husbandry from California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) at San Luis Obispo in 1960, the first woman to do so. Lilla was also the first woman to compete on Cal Poly’s livestock judging team. Her team was the 1958 champion at the Cow Palace in San Francisco and the Golden Spike in Ogden, Utah. Lilla was the high-scoring individual at both contests. The team also competed at the National Western Stock Show and traveled by train to Chicago for the International Livestock Show. Although she didn’t go on to judge livestock shows, Lilla had the ability. “The fact that she won some college judging contests will tell you that she had a really good eye for cattle,” says her longtime friend Jackie Hereford.org

Davis of Lincoln, Calif. “If I was any place and she mentioned, ‘Boy, I really like this one,’ I sure went over and looked at it.” As a sale consultant and ranch manager, Davis traveled 44 states and Canadian provinces and met lots of cattle people in between. He says, “I would respect Lilla’s opinion on any cow as much as anybody I’ve met.”

Aside from having a good eye for cattle, Lilla was recognized as a leader from the Western states. In 1990, Lilla served on the American Polled Hereford Association’s (APHA) Vision 2000 committee. A year later, Davis, a former APHA board chairman asked Lilla to consider running for the position he was exiting. He told her the board needed a grassroots producer, someone like her with a good understanding of the cattle business.

Committed to giving back

Keep in mind Lilla and her husband, Woodie, ranched 40 miles north of Winnemucca, Nev., the largest town close to the Bell Ranch. But, the closest commercial airport was in Reno, Nev., a nearly four-hour drive. Travel time was a limiting factor, but Lilla was always willing to invest time in volunteer leadership. Lilla served on the APHA board from 1992 to 1995, representing five Western states. She brought the experience and knowledge of raising registered and commercial cattle in arid, highdesert conditions and marketing bulls to Western ranches. Lilla was named chair of the APHA board in 1995, the first and only time a woman held the position. That particular year was historic for another reason: she presided during the merger of APHA and the American Hereford Association (AHA). “The merger was quite a challenge when I was chairman,” Lilla recalled in 2004. “But, I could Hereford.org

really work with the horned people. I got along really well with them, and I really respected them. And I felt they did the same with me.” Lilla encouraged APHA and AHA memberships to think in terms of “all of us” rather than “we” or “they.” She also recognized most of the commercial beef cattle industry viewed the breed as one. She shared that fact with the APHA membership as it stood ready to vote. “This was a difficult time in Hereford history, with merger discussions and debate, but Lilla was the perfect leader to help get the merger accomplished,” says Jane Evans Cornelius of Coyote Ridge Ranch, LaSalle, Colo., who served on the APHA board with Lilla. “Her ladylike, straightforward demeanor soothed worries and all understood the common goal. But, under her quiet calm were toughness and savvy. She was extremely knowledgeable about the entire cattle industry and the Hereford breed. Everyone respected her logic, wisdom and dedication. She exemplified grace with grit. Much of the success the breed is enjoying today can be attributed to Lilla’s leadership during a critical period.” Besides serving APHA, she was a director for the California-Nevada Polled Hereford Association for more than 20 years, a member of the Nevada Cattlemen’s Association and a member of the Fallon Bull Sale Committee, where she also served as a committee sifting member. Plus, Lilla was a 4-H club advisor when her grandkids showed cattle. Lilla Bell was inducted into the AHA Hall of Fame in 2012. “If you look up the word ‘Lady’ in the dictionary, her picture is most likely there,” say Tom and Cindy Weimer, Weimer Cattle Company, Susanville, Calif. “Lilla was a woman who was highly successful in the male-dominated purebred beef cattle industry. She was capable of wearing many hats. Lilla was comfortable tagging, tattooing and branding calves ... checking pastures on horseback...planning her breeding and marketing programs or sitting in the board room at the American Polled Hereford Association. She was a true ‘Western Lady.’”

Of her willingness to serve, Lilla explained, “I just feel that the breed and the associations have done so much for me, I need to pay them back in a small way.” Lilla was inducted into the AHA Hall of Fame in 2012, the same year as Davis. Both Westerners were recognized for their lifelong service and dedication to the Hereford breed. continued on page 66... July 2021 |

She was most proud of this. If you have, or ever plan to visit Paradise Valley, you would soon understand why.” Lilla always focused on productive cow families, selecting herd bulls from the best or most productive females.

A devastating range fire took 45 purebreds one year. Larkspur poisoning took out the heart of her herd another year.

Lilla always remained upbeat, no matter the circumstances. “If things are too easy, you don’t appreciate them as much,” she would say, explaining the setbacks made raising Hereford.org

Storytellers Beneath the Hide Ellis Farms may straddle the Illinois-Indiana line, but the family’s seven-generation commitment to bettering the Hereford breed is rooted soundly in real-world data. by Katie Maupin Miller

f you’re fortunate enough to visit Ellis Farms in Chrisman, Ill., you’ll probably find yourself seated around Phil and Joyce Ellis’ kitchen table. Countless other cattlemen and women over the years sat here, too, some traveling from as far as Finland and South Africa to pull up a chair. Their children and grandchildren will pop in to visit, reminisce about the family’s decades in the business or chat about their plans for the future before heading back out to care for their 200 cows and the family’s crops straddling the IndianaIllinois state line. Step into the couple’s living room or Phil’s office to see framed photos of the numerous state and national champions the Ellis family has owned and raised. And, if your visit lasts through lunch

| July 2021

or dinner, the family’s greatest contribution to the breed will take center stage on your plate — beef.

Always Herefords

The Ellis family has a long history in the Hereford business. In fact, the couple’s commitment to the breed even predates their commitment to each other. Phil’s father, Richard, started a registered polled Hereford operation he dubbed R.H. Ellis & Sons in the late 1940s. Some of the first pedigrees of those cattle still hang framed in the Ellis’ home today. Joyce is a fifth-generation Hereford breeder. She grew up in Lowell, Ind., on the noteworthy Lanthus Stock Farms, which imported Hereford genetics in 1883 as a wedding gift from Joyce’s great-great-grandfather to her great-grandfather, Charlie T. Bailey. Their paths crossed at a cattle show, but Phil had to invite her to Hereford.org

(Photo on opposite page) EFBeef bulls are known for their carcass traits and fertility. With each generation, the family selects cattle that bring the most value to commercial cattlemen. The family’s dedication to better beef genetics was recognized twice as the Beef Improvement Federation Seedstock Producer of the Year.

the Huber Ranch, Schneider, Ind., where he worked at the time to see the 1958 national champion bull before Joyce saw his marriage potential during a cowherd tour. Herefords brought the couple together from the start, and throughout their 60-year marriage, cattle have always been the common ground. Between their families, Phil and Joyce have been a part of nearly 140 years of Hereford genetics. The family has been hosting production sales at their Civil-War era homestead for 73 years. During their time in the industry, Phil and Joyce both served on the American Polled Hereford Association Board of Directors. Through those years, they have seen cattle change, associations merge, technology advance and markets fluctuate, but their commitment to the breed has never wavered. Instead, the Ellis family has held fast to the Hereford breed with such grit, determination, integrity and perseverance that the EFBeef prefix carved out a place of distinction among seedstock and commercial cattlemen alike.

this point, only visual estimates could be used to learn the carcass merit of an animal before it was harvested. With this new tool, the Ellis family could select breeding animals to bolster their offspring’s performance for the packers. During these times, a carcass premium from packers could be a sizable sum of money for a family of five making their living in the cattle business. Although Ellis Farms was known primarily for their seedstock and show cattle at the start of their foray into the ultrasound data domain, the family fed a load of 40 steers each year. By the mid-’80s, the cattle buyers would say the cattle needed another month or two on feed. And, the prices paid for the family’s fat cattle left some to be desired. “There were times when we didn’t get any premiums, and rightfully so. So, we decided to find out what we had under our hides, and that necessitated the ultrasound work,” says Joyce. So, armed with new information, the Ellis family started adding ultrasound data to their selection tools, coupling real-world performance with the showring look their cattle were known for at the time.

Data-driven

The Ellis family always tried to find ways to improve their stock. In the ’90s, Joyce returned home from a polled Hereford board meeting talking about an improved ultrasound technology. She and legendary Hereford herdswoman Lilla Bell watched the ultrasound demonstration at the meeting, and Joyce was excited about the opportunity to use it in “Illiana.” In 1971, an ultrasound tech visited Ellis Farms for the first Phil and Joyce dedicated their lives to the breed. Phil served as an APHA director and Illinois time to collect ribeye area (REA) Polled Hereford Association president. He started the annual Illinois Hereford tour in 1965. Joyce ultrasound data.

This trend doesn’t just apply to sire lines, though. Joe — the family’s genetic engineer — recalls the operation’s “prime cow.” That female had a seemingly unremarkable career as a cow. She wasn’t overly eye appealing, her calves weaned at an average size, and there was outwardly nothing special about her. That was until the family compared her calves’ carcass data and realized that every calf she produced graded prime, no matter its sire. They flushed their prime cow to capture her carcass genetics. Her story is just one of many that demonstrates the importance of real-world dollars to the Ellis program. The carcass measurements they have taken on calves they retained ownership on, the sire The Ellis family has nearly 140 years of combined history in the Hereford breed. Currently, the testing programs they utilize, the seventh generation helps care for the operation’s 200 head of cattle grazing on both sides of ultrasound data collected and the the Illinois/Indiana state line. genomic-enhanced EPDs guide their selection and keeps their operation in the green. “I think one of the most thrilling things that ever happened to me was when we had all of those prime cattle on the first load, and it was like $200 a head in premiums. Phil said that was better than any purple ribbon,” Joyce says. Although EFBeef cattle are known to be carcass leaders, more than carcass traits drive the ship in Chrisman. The family also puts heavy selection pressure on fertility, calving ease, growth, calf vigor and mothering ability. The result is cattle tailored to the commercial cattlemen — bulls that breed, cows that calve on their own and steers that garner premiums. RE Choice Mixer, the champion bull at the 1968 B.O.

Mississippi’s Marketer Jack Hedrick grew up in the Hereford business and devoted his life to marketing the breed. by Katie Maupin Miller

Hereford.org

“S

old” may be the most important phrase in the Hereford business, says Jack Hedrick, cattle sales manager and owner of JDH Marketing Services LLC, Columbus, Miss. While sale day is full of excitement, with the chant of the auctioneer, the shouts from the ringmen and the buzz in the bleachers, it’s not the atmosphere that spurred Jack into his life’s work. It was simply the knowledge that this one day could make or break that family’s year. Months of hard work and preparation had been poured into a set of cattle, and on that day, the crowd would decide their worth. “It’s that farm’s most important day of the year. They have a lot riding on that day, and I always try to give it my best,” Jack says. “I don’t care if it is the first animal in the ring, the last one, a bucket calf or a pet donkey that they’re selling at the end. Every animal is important.”

A family tradition

The Hedrick family has a long history in the Hereford business. Jack’s grandfather, Perry Hedrick, owned a Hereford operation in the tiny town of Anutt, Mo. Perry was a polled Hereford Pioneer Breeder, whose photo once graced the halls of the polled Hereford headquarters. Perry’s love of polled Herefords didn’t skip a generation, though. Jack’s dad, Roscoe “Rusty” Hedrick, was recruited by legendary

polled Hereford breeder M.P. “Hot” Moore to join Circle M Ranch in Senatobia, Miss., as a herdsman. Jack was a youngster when his father was tapped to manage Circle M, and he grew up immersed in ranch life. Jack was drawn to sale day and the men and women behind the scenes from an early age. As a ranch manager’s kid, Jack witnessed firsthand the hard work, creative marketing and just plain professionalism poured into each successful sale. Circle M Ranch sales often averaged more than $6,000 per head — a sizable investment in those times — and Jack vividly recalls the excitement as Moore, the buyers and his family posed with highselling lots. Jack’s father’s talents as a herdsman were in high demand, and in 1966, the family left Circle M and moved to Damascus, Md., where Rusty prepared show and sale Spending his formidable years on Circle M Ranch instilled the excitement of sale day in Jack cattle for Col. E. Brooke Lee’s Hedrick. He enjoyed watching the men and women work behind the scenes, preparing for the auction, and ranch owner, M.P. “Hot” Moore, was a master marketer.

farm, the Hedrick family moved a portion of Lee’s cowherd to a farm in Columbus, Miss. Jack and his wife, Mary Helen, still reside there today. You could say Jack’s childhood was the cattle equivalent to an Army brat, as the family moved a few times, managing different Hereford operations around the country. With every move and change in the Hedrick family’s life, there was one constant — Hereford cattle. For Jack, this meant that no matter where they lived, he was quick to find friends through their 4-H clubs with similar interests as his own.

Hitting the road

While in Columbus, the Hedricks started their own Hereford operation called Yikes Farms. But, the economic inflation of the ’70s made it hard to carve out a living in the cattle industry, so Rusty started working cattle sales. In 1975, just a couple of years out of high school, Jack hit the road doing the same. At this time, Jack started working with Bill Maerli from Missouri. Maerli taught him the skills needed to clip and fit sale cattle. After a couple of years on the road, Jack met Eddie Sims of National Cattle Services, Inc., from Elgin, Okla. As Jack tells it, Eddie “pretty well picked me up and made something out of me.”

Jack went to work for Sims in 1978. During that time, he spent days on the road with Eddie’s brother, Dale “Slim” Sims, hauling chutes and equipment between sales so they could clip, fit and prepare the sale cattle. Under the tutelage of the Sims brothers, Jack learned more about successful sale management as he traveled around the country. They taught him how to prepare cattle, but most importantly, they taught him about the people. “I shook a lot of hands working with National Cattle Services. I met a lot of breeders, and I met a lot of people,” Jack says. Many of those industry connections mentored Jack along the way, such as auctioneer Jim Birdwell and livestock photographer Don Birk. And those connections would become even more important when Jack started his own sales marketing company, JDH Marketing Services LLC, in 1988 after a decade on the road with National Cattle Services. As he will tell you, successful sales management is almost like a team sport where managers call upon the best in the industry in their trades — photographers, catalog designers, videographers, clippers, fitters, ring help and auctioneers — to help prepare for a successful event. People like Johnny Winston from the American Polled Hereford Association, auctioneers Bo Swilley and Dale Stith, and

Jack Hedrick fit his fair share of sale and show cattle, including Matt Sims’ national champion open show heifer at the 1987 National Polled Hereford Show. Jack and Matt embrace after the win as good friend and ringman DeRon Heldermon looks on. Matt’s father, Eddie Sims, is the owner of National Cattle Services, Inc., where Jack Hedrick cut his teeth in the sales industry.

Storytellers

Patience and Perseverance Sam Hunter strives to produce cattle as solid as the Appalachian Mountains surrounding him. by Samantha Albers

estled in a picturesque corner of the Great Appalachian Valley, the birds are chirping, and the sun is beginning to shine on SCH Polled Herefords after a night of thunderstorms. The grass is a vibrant green and the cool, spring breeze awakens the newborn calves to follow alongside their mothers. Sam Hunter of Hagerstown, Md., starts up his work truck and looks down the lane at his group of mature cows, continuing on like all other spring mornings to check the rest of his herd. “My two best friends — patience and perseverance,” Hunter says as the last of his yearlings join the rest of the group. He lives by this phrase every day. On his farm, those words ring true as he sees to every last detail and task for

his herd — from breeding decisions, vaccination protocol and marketing his cattle to breeders in his area for their next herd prospects. Grounded in the agricultural industry with a sheep and Shorthorn cattle background, Hunter’s story in the Hereford breed began as a young kid from northwestern Pennsylvania. He caught the “bug” for the bald-faced breed after winning a Hereford steer calf at a high school livestock judging contest. From there, his passion for livestock and the cattle industry only grew.

Patience in evaluation

Learning and developing patience through the years helped guide Hunter through both his education and finding his niche in the industry. His eye for livestock, not only won Hunter his first Hereford, but also landed him at Pennsylvania State University under the tutelage of legendary livestock judging coach Herman Purdy. Hunter was a member of the history-making national champion livestock judging team at the 1966 Chicago International Livestock Show in Chicago, Ill. It was the first time the college garnered the top honor. Hunter left Penn State with more than judging accolades, though; he left with a way to evaluate stock. “One thing I really look for is good structure and foundation in cattle,” Hunter says. “Like Herman Aside from raising and marketing Hereford cattle, Sam also mows and bales his own hay and sells to equestrians in the Hagerstown area. Purdy, our judging coach, would tell

us, ‘When an animal is walking, where its front foot picked up, that back foot should be planted right where that front one was.’” Other traits Hunter keeps in mind when evaluating cattle to make performance and marketing decisions include the phenotype, body condition scores (BCS), udder quality, temperament, docility, functionality, growability and gain, and profitability of the animals. Because he selects based on these traits, the majority of his herd is structurally correct, sound and maternally oriented, with the fleshing ability to maintain a BCS 5.

Perseverance on the map

Like the windy roads in the valley where he resides, Hunter’s path in the industry ventured along the east coast. After graduating from college in 1967, Sam began his journey down the “show road” and worked for a Charolais breeder in Virginia, before he headed south to Rollins Ranch in northern Georgia.

He explains that highperforming and sound cattle have more longevity in the pasture, and tremendous strides have been made to enhance the performance and genetics in today’s Hereford cattle. “The docility found in Herefords would be number one for me and the good people that we do business with,” Hunter says. “Acknowledge people and listen to those that are more experienced than you are, most people The experience gained in are going to try to help you,” says Sam Hunter. competitive livestock judging helped By 1974, he found himself in Maryland to guide Hunter to produce quality Hereford cattle in manage Huckleberry Hall Farm, where part the Old Line State. The many hours of livestock of SCH Polled Herefords currently sits. As the judging, classwork and travel to local, regional herdsman at Huckleberry Hall Farm, he set up and national level livestock shows gave him the an agreement allowing him to keep a cow for his patience needed to continue persevering through own herd each year that he managed the farm and his education and employment. helped with the annual production sale. “Nothing happens overnight.

of Hereford cattle, and SCH Polled Herefords found its home on a part of the acreage. He considers the selection of KCF Victor 08N X4 to be a pivotal point for his farm and herd. Hunter purchased interest in KCF Victor 08N X4, a Hereford sire widely used around the country, in the early-’90s with Knoll Crest Farm in Red House, Va. Hunter believed the bull’s genetics would bolster the growability of the SCH Polled Herefords’ herd with his high-performing EPDs. With this sire’s first calf crop on the ground in 1991, Hunter truly felt he landed on the “Hereford map” of cattlemen across the country, and he was able to promote his cattle with the sire’s proven genetics. “The greatest part that sticks out to me is having the respect of a fellow breeder,” Hunter says. “Being recognized as a superior breeder with functional livestock who can merchandise them fairly and with reputation to help back that.” Now raising Hereford cattle on approximately 70 acres, Hunter and his wife, Linda, breed around 35-40 cows each year. Hunter sells his

calves private treaty to local cattle producers. Both loyal, repeat customers and young breeders just entering the industry find value in Hunter’s genetics. With his hard work and dedication to the industry through the years, Hunter has faced and conquered the mountains and valleys. Today, SCH Polled Herefords is recognized as a 48-year Hereford member of the American Hereford Association and a Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) program. Even with all of the highs and lows that come with raising livestock, his core pillars of being honest and forthright, doing the right thing and having patience and perseverance shine through in both his operation and his everyday life, which are one-in-the-same. He adds, “Someone with patience and perseverance can develop a program, work hard enough and do the right things to be successful in any industry.”

HEALTH

Pointers for Pinkeye Prevention Prevent pinkeye in three easy steps. by Tim Parks and Lowell Midla

nfectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (IBK) – or pinkeye – costs cattle producers at least $150 million each year, according to estimates. Losses include the cost of treatment, lost animal performance and discounts for eye lesions at the time of sale. Reduced performance is largely due to the pain associated with ulceration of the cornea. Anyone who has suffered a corneal abrasion or arc welder burn knows corneal lesions are painful. The pain associated with pinkeye compromises not only performance but also animal welfare, so pain mitigation should be considered.

corneal damage. Female face flies feed nearly exclusively on ocular secretions (tears and other exudates) of cattle. They have specialized rasp-like mouth parts that damage ocular tissues and stimulate the production of the ocular secretions upon which they feed. That’s why every article written about IBK emphasizes the importance of clipping pastures and controlling flies, the two most common causes of damage to the cornea. Of course, both are easier said than done. Still, no vaccine or other control measure is going to be effective until you have first clipped pastures and controlled flies. Again, without

damage to the cornea, cattle generally do not develop IBK. The first step in the pathogenesis of pinkeye is attachment of the causative bacteria to the cornea. Once attached, Moraxella bovis releases toxins which further damage the cornea. Moraxella bovis attaches with specialized pili or finger-like protrusions from the bacterial cell wall. Currently available effective vaccines induce immunity to these pili. Unfortunately, Moraxella bovis is very good at switching pili. This creates natural selection for survival of Moraxella bovis expressing pili to which the animals are not immune. This explains why animals previously infected with IBK can be

Moraxella bovis

Moraxella bovis is the only infectious agent definitively shown to cause IBK. It is critical to understand that Moraxella bovis generally does not cause IBK in the absence of damage to the cornea. Moraxella bovis is a commensal organism of the bovine eye meaning that it can be found on the eyes and periocular tissues of healthy animals nearly all the time. That it is always present, yet rarely causes disease, supports the idea that damage to the cornea is necessary for Moraxella bovis to cause IBK. Corneal damage has many potential causes, such as young animals eating from stemmy round bales and exposure to ultraviolet light, which is why periocular pigment is important. However, face flies and tall grass/weeds/ brush most commonly cause

susceptible to reinfection, even though having had an actual disease is usually regarded to be the best possible “vaccination” against that same disease in the future.

Moraxella bovoculi

Recently, another bacterium — Moraxella bovoculi — was identified in some outbreaks of IBK. The ability of Moraxella bovoculi to attach to the cornea seems to be rather weak. However, Moraxella bovoculi has spicules that enable it to attach to Moraxella bovis quite well. If Moraxella bovis is attached to the cornea, Moraxella bovoculi often then overgrows the Moraxella bovis. Therefore, our current best understanding of IBK caused by Moraxella bovoculi is that Moraxella bovis seems to get things started and then Moraxella bovoculi takes over. This leads to two practical considerations. First, if your veterinarian cultures the eye of an affected animal, a pure culture result of Moraxella bovoculi does not mean that Moraxella bovis was not initially involved. Second, if you decide to vaccinate against Moraxella bovoculi, do not stop vaccinating against Moraxella bovis.

Protection considerations

When an IBK outbreak occurs, we often conclude that the vaccination program failed. However, there are many potential explanations for an IBK outbreak, such as: • Failure to prevent corneal damage, i.e. failure to clip pastures and control flies. • Failure to adequately protect via vaccination, i.e. did not vaccinate against both Moraxella bovis and Moraxella bovoculi, with both vaccines given according to label, with an appropriately timed booster dose administered if necessary. • Other failures: see The Disease Triangle for Pinkeye. Even in cases where we seemingly have done everything correctly, IBK can still occur; Hereford.org

…no vaccine or other control measure is going to be effective until you have first clipped pastures and controlled flies.

for example, due to the ability of Moraxella bovis to switch attachment pili. Producers and veterinarians searching for an easy solution led to the popularity of autogenous vaccines. In simple terms, autogenous vaccines are created utilizing strains of the infective pathogen from an infected animal. However, given the frequency of pilus switching and the time delay from sample gathering for building an autogenous vaccine to having the vaccine in hand, autogenous vaccines are inherently unlikely to be effective. These same factors make it even less likely that an autogenous vaccine created one year will be effective in subsequent years. There is no requirement that autogenous vaccines be tested for efficacy, and when evaluated in five separate research studies, autogenous vaccines failed to show protection. In contrast, commercially available vaccines must undergo efficacy testing during the approval process and the

pili selected for inclusion in most commercial vaccines are specifically selected based upon their prevalence in clinical cases and ability to stimulate cross protection against other pili. We certainly do not yet know all there is to know about pinkeye. The best recommendations at this time are: 1. Control flies 2. Minimize other causes of corneal trauma 3. Vaccinate against both Moraxella bovis and Moraxella bovoculi. References available upon request. Editor’s note: Tim Parks DVM and Lowell T.

Genomics Don’t Just Take Our Word for It Hereford breeder John Ridder of Falling Timber Farm tells how genomic technology helps his operation. by Jamie T. Courter and Leoma Wells

ereford breeders can make more rapid genetic progress than ever before with genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs). The same science and data driving the breed’s genetic evaluation also means commercial users of registered Hereford cattle can make selection decisions with increased confidence in the accuracy of genetic predictions. Here, Hereford breeder John Ridder of Falling Timber Farm in Missouri discusses how he utilizes genomic technology in his operation. His sentiments mirror those frequently expressed by other breeders, including those with prior experience using genomic selection tools in other species.

| July 2021

What was your initial impression of genomic technology?

A: “I was selling dairy semen at the time genomic technology first became available to beef producers, so I was aware of progeny testing and how genomics helped to change the strategy of dairy breeders and accelerate genetic progress. When the technology became available for beef cattle, people were wary, but it was already commonplace in the dairy industry.”

How and when do you implement genomic testing on your operation?

A: “We take DNA samples on every calf at weaning and file them away. Then in late

Hereford.org

(Photo on opposite page) Falling Timber Farm, Marthasville, Mo., is owned and operated by John and and Heidi Ridder (center) along with their children, Madi (left) and Ben (right).

August or early September we sort the cattle and decide which bulls we are keeping and submit DNA on those being registered. We try to have the DNA sent in by mid-October, so we are guaranteed to have the results back by the end of December in time to take pictures and place ads. The genomics help us decide which bulls to advertise.”

How important are the genomic results to your management decisions?

A: “It helps me to decide the final cut of who goes in the sale and who doesn’t. I’ve had some really good-looking bulls fall out of the sale because of their low calving ease numbers. As far as the bulls I use for breeding, I won’t use one that hasn’t been tested. I breed based on numbers and phenotype. Because of genomics, I am also more comfortable using young ‘unproven’ bulls from my own herd. It seems like we can make progress much faster by being able to identify superior animals quicker than before we had genomics. What used to take five to six years, now we can know by the time they are yearlings with GE-EPDs.”

Do you wish you had started genomic testing earlier?

A: “I feel like we were some of the earlier people to adopt the technology. We started with the bulls the first year it was available. The marketability and predictability of a bull’s performance for our customers was our turning point in adoption.”

What advice do you have to someone considering implementing the technology on their operation?

A: “I would tell them that if they want to be in the registered business and help with genetic improvement, it’s a necessity.”

Editor’s Note: Jamie T. Courter, Ph.D., is a beef products manager and Leoma Wells is the strategic account manager for Neogen Genomics. Previous articles in this series discuss everything from utilizing genomics in selecting bulls and replacement females to the appropriate timeline for Hereford breeders to use when submitting samples to Neogen. To learn more, please contact an American Hereford Association team member.

Do you believe there is increased value in your cattle due to having been genomically tested?

A: “Genomics is a big risk management tool. We see the value of genomics reflected in our customer satisfaction and repeat buyers. Having tested as much as we can, genomics help prove the bull is, in fact, a calving ease bull – and our customers know that. We don’t see a lot of bull credits or unhappy customers.”

What impact has genomics had on your operation since it was implemented?

A: “We put a lot of emphasis on growth. I can’t say I follow a trend line of the growth of my cattle, but I know we don’t feed like we did in the past. Today, we feed for moderate and efficient gain, which is part of our customer satisfaction. From a growth EPD standpoint, if we were plotting a trend line, I feel like we would be making huge gains for those traits. I also know that udder quality on our females would rival any herd in the country, but that is also a result of a breeder putting accurate data in and being honest about what they’re scoring. The trait itself is a little subjective, but the longer you take measurements and select for it, the better the quality will be.” Hereford.org

Falling Timber Farm offers high-quality calving ease Hereford sires and elite females twice a year. While they have an Annual Bull & Female Sale the third Saturday in March, they also offer fall bulls and bred heifers by private treaty in the fall.

P&R Advancer L 765E is a new home raised herd sire that we purchased back from our longtime friend and customer Brandon Webb of Webb Farms. The Webb family purchased this herd sire for $5,500 in our 2018 Production Sale. He stood out among their herd bull battery and we thank the Webb family for letting us bring him back home last year. 765E speaks for himself phenotypically. You don’t have to feed 765E any supplement. He is easy fleshing enough to get what he needs from just forage. 765E is a complete, totally balanced, “range cattle efficiency” herd sire with balanced genomic enhanced EPDs combined with that distinct range bull look with time tested practical and predictable genetics backing him up under the hood.

Commissioner 0009 is an exciting prospect! We love his power, thickness, length of spine, actual performance and ease of movement. He is a real outcross pedigree for us, and his maternal profile is exciting. He froze semen on his first collection and we are using him AI and naturally. And as a bonus, he has a very pleasant attitude.

Maintaining a closed line of breeding for over 70 years means HIGHLY predictable offspring when calves are sired by a CL 1 Domino bull. We’ve performance tested for over 60 years, collected carcass data on ALL yearlings for 25 years, and have submitted DNA for GE-EPD evaluation the past 9 years.

Years of evaluation coupled with a line-bred program founded on performance means less guesswork for you!

CONTINUES Daughters, Tinley and Lyla Harvie have been growing their herd for many years under the Harvie OVHF prefix with cow families such as Unique 131R, Next Gen Riesling 295 and Ronda 41W to name a few. They acquired a lease herd from OVHF, Frank & Andree McNeely, Olds, Alberta in 2017 and recently leased the Six South Acres cowherd from Curtis and Kerry Gaillard, Milestone, Saskatchewan. Along with these purebred polled Hereford females, the ranch has implanted over 80 embryos to continue to accelerate growth in this vibrant and powerful breed.

From the Field In Passing Janet Lee (Flaherty) Watson, 72, Cabool, Mo., passed away April 12. The daughter of Charles Eugene “Gene” Janet Lee Flaherty and Norma Watson Lee (Vinson) Flaherty, she was born on May 20, 1948, in Springfield, Mo.

Simple Tools to Track Success Part one of a two-part deep dive in Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), or tools used to measure activity for success. What if I told you, I have a secret technique to make you rich and solve all your customer service issues? Well, I don’t; not exactly, anyway. But, keep reading because this is part one of a two-column series about developing tools to streamline your business, make more money and make your life altogether easier. We’re talking about how to implement key performance indicators (KPIs). This may sound very corporate-like, but don’t be afraid of it. Actually, KPIs are simply areas of your business you would like to track and measure success or failure by using data. You may even have a start using KPIs and not realize it. As of right now, how do you … • Track sales? • Measure success? • Evaluate disappointing results?

• Debrief failures? • Set expectations for yourself? • Set expectations for others? These are all examples of KPIs. You might be thinking of tracking sales, which is a perfect place to start. You likely do some of this already by knowing your revenue and your net profits. Yet, there are other areas you could consider adding such as: • Marketing • Operations • Finance • Human resources • Customer service

ABCs of KPIs

So, what are the tangible benefits of setting up a key performance indicator? Let’s talk the ABCs of KPIs. Accelerate, Benchmark and Clarify are what I consider the three major benefits to KPIs. Accelerate. By selecting areas of the business to focus on improving, you can better direct your sales trajectory. You’re really more in charge of your own growth — and the ability to achieve faster growth — if you know your numbers. Again, numbers aren’t just sales. You may find your business grows faster (accelerates) if you shorten your delivery window or payment collection time after each sale by

evaluating the number of days you allocate to the task. Benchmark. Setting specific measurements, such as the example above to shorten the number of days after a sale before payment and delivery, allows you to research and compare that item with that of other people or companies in the business. Basically, you are able to benchmark yourself against the competition or even benchmark your own numbers from year to year. It’s with benchmarks that you can see trends — either positive or negative — and adjust with that knowledge. Clarify. Clarity is powerful in any aspect of business, and KPI measurements can really help with this. Again, using the example above, let’s say you set out to create a KPI around the idea of delivery time and you’re tracking that. Now, it’s one thing if you’re the only one involved, but even for small operations, that’s usually not the case. You may have a spouse that handles invoicing or an employee or contractor you put on the road to do the trucking. If you are the only one who knows the KPI for delivery time is being measured, how will you get accurate information? Or, how can others help to see the real picture? Don’t forget to inform others in the business about the process and explain what you hope to accomplish! Next month, we’ll continue the conversation with how to choose the right KPIs for your farm or ranch and some tips to get you started. Let’s continue the conversation!

Signing up for MyHerd does not mean members cannot use a herd management system; however, there are features in MyHerd that herd management software cannot provide, like electronic animal transfer, AI certificate release and online bill payment. Send an email to MyHerd@hereford.org to learn more about how to use MyHerd with your herd management system.

MyHerd help resources

The MyHerd team has created resources to ensure you are using MyHerd to its full capabilities. Visit Hereford.org to view the step-by-step tutorials that walk you through every feature of MyHerd. You can also utilize the MyHerd help pages by clicking on the blue “Help” text in the upper right-hand corner of MyHerd. Be on the lookout for upcoming webinars this fall and spring. Webinars are live demonstrations hosted by a MyHerd team member and are a great opportunity for you to ask questions.

Electronic storage

The AHA offers electronic storage of registration certificates to members using MyHerd.org. When a member registers an animal, the certificate is stored electronically until the member wants to release the certificate for print. This allows members to be in control of when they receive registration certificates. Members can store a calf crop electronically and can wait to release the certificates until after all performance data are recorded or after a genetic evaluation. There is no additional charge to store or to release registration certificates. Email MyHerd@ hereford.org to sign up for electronic storage of certificates.

Taking the Next Step as a New Member Dear new member, Welcome! We look forward to having you as a member of the American Hereford Association (AHA). We hope this handbook answers some of your questions as you begin your membership. Each month new members receive “New Member Notes” by email during their first year of membership. It includes tips and resources to help members become more involved in the AHA plus additional

information regarding AHA programs and activities. If you did not provide an email address with your membership application, send an email to records@hereford.org and request your email address to be added to your account. We are always here to serve you. If you have questions, do not hesitate to ask. Sincerely, AHA Customer Service

Hereford Registration 4-1-1 Members have the choice of registering as a pedigree or performance breeder. If a registry type was not declared, then you’re automatically enrolled as a pedigree breeder.

Pedigree registry:

Pedigree breeders can register and transfer cattle but do not maintain and report performance data to the AHA. Production of expected progeny differences (EPDs) is waived on their herd.

Registry type

Performance registry:

Performance breeders participate in the Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™) system and are required to maintain a female inventory, report calving ease and weaning information annually on the produce of every female in the inventory. EPDs are printed on the registration certificate.

To learn more about becoming a performance breeder and the ability to register calves with EPDs, go to Hereford.org/TPR or contact AHA Customer Service.

Electronic:

The AHA has a real-time online registration system called MyHerd.org. Members may sign up for a free online account and register their calves electronically. Electronic registrations receive a discount and registered information is made available in real time. Email your AHA member number to MyHerd@hereford.org to have an account set up or if you have already signed up, log on now at MyHerd.org.

The cost of registration is determined by the age of the calf at the time of registration (see MEMBER REGISTRATON RATES table on Page 2). In addition to the registration cost/head, lifetime, adult and junior memberships require an

WHOLE HERD DEADLINES: July 1, 2021 Final date to submit all dam reproductive status and weaning information for the fall 2018 calf crop. July 15, 2021 Completion and return of fall 2021 herd inventories by this date will provide a $0.25 per head discount on every female maintained on the fall inventory. Sept. 1, 2021 Completion and return of fall 2021 herd inventories after this date will incur an additional $2 per head surcharge on every female maintained on the fall inventory. Dec. 1, 2021 Final date to submit all dam reproductive status and weaning information for the spring 2019 calf crop. Jan. 15, 2022 Completion and return of spring 2022 herd inventories by this date will provide a $0.25 per head discount on every female maintained on the spring inventory.

The basic concept of beef cattle performance records is to measure genetic differences between animals for traits of economic importance. The American Hereford Association (AHA) recognizes the importance of performance records in today’s beef industry and through Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™), can provide a system flexible enough to meet the needs of the most sophisticated recordkeeping breeder or those who desire to keep only the basics. Within herd and contemporary group records generated through Whole Herd TPR are measures for calving intervals, birth weights, weaning weights, yearling weights, scrotal circumference, hip height/ frame measures and ratios for most of these measures. Good within-herd records include information obtained at birth, weaning, yearling and ultrasound carcass data. These within-herd and contemporarygroup records are adjusted for known environmental sources of variation in animal performance such as age of dam, age of calf, etc. Competition for commercial industry purchasing power between and within breeds is keen, and those breeders who document their seedstock’s performance for the commercial man’s investment have a distinct advantage in today’s beef

Whole Herd TPR steps: Step 1

Show an accurate inventory record of each female in your herd that is expected to calve in your selected season.

Step 2

As calving is completed, breeders are required to return to the AHA a Birth Information Worksheet (Form 1) with the birth information for every female enrolled in that season, including data on any that failed to calve, lost a calf, etc.

Step 3

Member submits completed Birth Report/Weaning Worksheet (Form 2) reporting weaning weight information or a disposal code for animals not weighed.

March 1, 2022 Final date to nominate sires for spring 2022 breeding in the National Reference Sire Program. March 1, 2022 Completion and return of spring 2022 herd inventories after this date will incur an additional $2 per head surcharge on every female maintained on the spring inventory.

industry as it moves toward “specification production” from conception to slaughter. Whole Herd TPR is a system of registration and performance tracking whereby every participating breeder updates his/her cow herd inventory annually and is charged for performance data on a per cow basis as opposed to a per calf basis. The system is positively endorsed by the Beef Improvement Federation (BIF), a North American umbrella organization of beef breed associations, beef producers, researchers and the academic community. With this system, the AHA measures economically relevant beef production traits such as fertility, longevity and reproductive efficiency. Furthermore, the greater volume of data reported from each herd for measured growth and carcass traits enhances the accuracy of Hereford expected progeny differences (EPDs). Participation in Whole Herd TPR is voluntary and breeders may choose to maintain pedigree records without recording performance information, so EPDs or other performance information is not printed on their registry certificates. Call the AHA to get your herd enrolled in the performance registry program, to get set up with MyHerd.org or if you are currently enrolled and have questions.

The AHA invoices the breeder for his inventory costs in accordance with the number and kind of animals reported.

When the breeder returns Form 3 to the AHA, a yearling report (Form 4) and a calf crop EPD summary (Form 5) is provided.

Following data submission, the AHA provides a Dam Production Summary Report for each enrolled female.

The AHA returns Birth Information Worksheets (Form 1) to the breeder.

The AHA returns the Birth Report/Weaning Worksheet (Form 2) to the breeder.

The AHA returns the Weaning Report/ Yearling Worksheet (Form 3) to the breeder.

Note: Yearling information is not mandatory.

If ultrasound carcass data is collected, technician submits carcass data directly to an AHA-approved ultrasound lab that will process the data and forward results to the AHA for database inclusion.

Gold TPR Breeders

The Gold TPR Breeder recognition is presented to progressive Hereford breeders who have measured traits and collected and promptly submitted performance data at all levels of production. Breeders must meet a specific set of requirements in order to be eligible for the program. • Herd inventory submitted prior to inventory surcharge deadline. • Complete reporting of calving ease and reproductive status for each dam on inventory. • Complete reporting of birth, weaning and yearling weights for all live calves recorded in the calf crop. • Complete reporting of scrotal measurements for each bull calf with a recorded yearling weight. • Ultrasound data reported on 25% or more of the calf crop.

Platinum TPR Breeders

The Platinum TPR Breeder is the highest level of achievement when it comes to complete calf crop reporting. Breeders must meet all the requirements of Gold TPR Breeder status, plus they must also genotype 85% of the calves with a weaning weight submitted. The time requirement to do this will fall under the same two-year compliancy rule. The results of the genotype will need to be completed by Jan. 1 of the recognition year.

More frequent genetic evaluations

In December 2017, the AHA implemented several updates to its genetic evaluation that include the implementation of a Single Step model for better incorporation of genomics, the ability to calculate, not estimate, EPD accuracies and allowing only animals to enter the evaluation that are born after the advent of Whole Herd TPR but also include three generations of pedigree. Along with this, key economically relevant traits (ERTs) as well as updated economic parameters are included in the three revised selection indexes. The updates of all of these techniques have allowed the AHA to offer a very reliable and comprehensive genetic evaluation that embraces the most up-to-date technology.

Just as important, the AHA’s genetic evaluation runs weekly and releases evaluations each Monday morning. To be included in the Monday update, data must be submitted by midnight two Saturdays prior. For example, for data to be reflected in the EPD release that

will occur on Aug. 16, 2021, data will need to be summited by Aug. 7, 2021. Planning ahead is crucial to be sure all phenotypic data (weights and ultrasound information) as well as genotypes are submitted well in advance to ensure appropriate data is reflected in the EPD.

Sharpen up on traits Sustained Cow Fertility (SCF) – The AHA’s new Sustained Cow Fertility EPD is a prediction of a cow’s ability to continue to calve from three years of age through 12 years of age, given she calved as a twoyear-old. The EPD is expressed as a deviation in the proportion of the 10 possible calvings to 12 years old expressed as a probability. For example, the daughters of a bull with a 30 EPD would have the genetic potential to have one more calf by age 12 than the daughters from a bull with a 20 EPD. In other words, the daughters from the 30 EPD bull would have a 10% greater probability of having one more calf than daugters of the bull with a 20 EPD. This is equivalent to saying that the daughters are 10% more likely to remain in the herd to age 12. Dry Matter Intake (DMI) – The Dry Matter Intake EPD predicts the daily consumption of pounds of feed. For example, if sire A has a DMI EPD of 1.1 and sire B has a DMI EPD of 0.1, you would expect sire B’s progeny, if comparably mated, to consume on average one pound of feed less per day. Baldy Maternal Index (BMI$) – The Baldy Maternal Index is a maternally focused index that is based on a production system that uses Hereford x Angus cross cows. Progeny of these cows are directed toward Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB). This index has significant weight on Sustained Cow Fertility, which predicts fertility and longevity of females. There is a slightly positive weight on Weaning Weight, Mature Cow Weight and Milk, which accounts for enough growth but ensures females do not increase inputs. There is some negative emphasis on Dry Matter Intake by a positive weighting on Carcass Weight, which is anticipated to provide profitability from finishing of nonreplacement females and castrated males. Marbling and Ribeye Area are also positively weighted to keep the harvested progeny successful for CHB. This index is geared to identify Hereford bulls that will be profitable when used in a rotational cross with mature commercial Angus cows. Brahman Influence Index (BII$) – The Brahman Influence Index is a maternally focused index that is based on a production system that uses Brahman x Hereford cross cows. Progeny of these cows are directed toward a commodity beef market since CHB does not accept Brahmaninfluenced cattle. This index has significant weight on Sustained Cow Fertility, which predicts fertility and longevity of females. There is a slightly positive weight on Weaning Weight, Mature Cow Weight and Milk, which accounts for enough growth but ensures females do not increase inputs. There is some negative emphasis on Dry Matter Intake but a positive weighting on Carcass Weight, which is anticipated to provide a profitability in finishing nonreplacement females and castrated males. Marbling and Ribeye Area are also positively weighted to keep harvested progeny successful for a variety of commodity-based programs. This index targets producers that use Hereford bulls on Brahman-influenced cows. Certified Hereford Beef Index (CHB$) – The Certified Hereford Beef Index is a terminal sire index that is built on a production system where Hereford bulls are mated to mature commercial Angus cows where all progeny will be targeted for Certified Hereford Beef after the finishing phase. This index has significant weight on Carcass Weight and Marbling to ensure profit on the rail. In addition there is a positive weighting for Average Daily Gain along with a negative weighting on Dry Matter Intake to ensure efficient pounds of growth in the finishing phase. In addition, there is a positive weighting for Ribeye Area and a negative weighting for Back Fat to maintain desirable Yield Grades. This is the only index that has no emphasis on fertility. Remember that no replacement heifers are being retained. For additional trait information, visit the Genetics section of Hereford.org.

Components of the program are backed by documented market price advantages, giving producers a great opportunity to improve value. This tagging program is offered in conjunction with IMI Global, an industry-leading source for thirdparty verification of food production practices in North America. Requirements include: • Source and age (required IMI base verification) • Genetic merit › Minimum of 50% Hereford genetics › Bull battery ranking in top 50% of breed for Certified Hereford Beef Index (CHB$)* profit index (bull battery average) › Bull ownership transferred (all bulls) • Vaccination program — two rounds of preweaning vaccinations (minimum) • BQA certification To enroll in the program, visit HerefordAdvantage.com to download

and complete the enrollment form and submit it to IMI Global. Program cost is $3 per head (no minimum enrollment required), which includes verification and program electronic identification tag costs. During the enrollment process, an expected progeny difference and profit index summary for the submitted bull battery will be developed and provided to producers, allowing them to track genetic merit for future selection decisions. Participating producers will also receive additional marketing support and exposure through this program. Qualifying cattle will be listed on the AHA’s “Feeder Cattle Listings” page, HerefordMarketplace.com, and cattle information will be communicated to a growing list of interested feeder cattle buyers. * The CHB$ is a terminal sire index that is built on a production system where Hereford bulls are used on British-cross cows with a focus on gain and end-product merit.

Premium Red Baldy Program

Premium Red Baldy is a tagging program designed to take advantage of hybrid vigor by maximizing the best traits of both Hereford and Red Angus breeds and providing commercial producers with premium replacement females. The program has the ideal balance of maternal and carcass traits, which will yield cattle poised to increase the profitability of the commercial producer. Premium Red Baldy uses genetics supported by the only two beef breed associations backed by whole herd reporting. Producers interested in verifying their bull battery should call their respective breed representative to complete the verification process and to order Allflex tags for $0.99 each. Interested producers will contact Trey Befort, AHA director of commercial programs, at tbefort@ herefordbeef.org or Chessie Mitchell, Red Angus Association of America tag program coordinator, at chessie@ redangus.org.

Funding the Future, Leaving a Legacy

Hereford Youth Foundation contacts 11500 N. Ambassador Dr., Ste. 410 Kansas City, MO 64153 816-842-3757 | 816-243-1314 fax HerefordYouthFoundation.org acowan@hereford.org

This last year, the Hereford Youth Foundation of America (HYFA) reached an all-time high in net assets of $4.2 million and $300,000 was paid forward to support future initiatives for Hereford youth. HYFA and the National Junior Hereford Association (NJHA) work together to provide opportunities for the breed’s future leaders and to pave the way for successful and rewarding careers for these young people. Scholarship, leadership and education continue to be the mission of the foundation, promoting a focus on programs that not only showcase the juniors’ talents but build leaders and prepare them for a bright future in the beef industry and beyond.

What is HYFA? OFFICERS: President: Ray Ramsey Greenfield, Ind., 317-462-7122 rayramsey77@gmail.com Vice president: George Sprague Eugene, Ore., 541-465-2188 gks@bar1ranch.com Secretary/treasurer: Amy Cowan acowan@hereford.org

DIRECTORS: Jill Bielema Ada, Mich., 616-292-7476 jbielema@comcast.net Katie Coyler Bruneau, Idaho, 208-599-2962 katie@hereford.com Steve Folkman Ixonia, Wis., 920-474-7403 cnlfarm@execp.com Nancy Keilty Cedar, Mich., 231-228-6578 nancykeilty@mindspring.com Bob Norton St. Joseph, Mo., 816-238-3326 bobnorton@biozymeinc.com Kathy Buchholz Waxahachie, Texas, 214-537-1306 kathy@gkbcattle.com Bill King Moriarty, N.M., 505-220-9909 bill@billkingranch.com

HYFA started with a focus on scholarships, launched with the first $750 Gary Bishop Scholarship in 2004. From there the Bob and Dolores Call Scholarship was added and the unveiling of the $5 million capital endowment campaign. Thanks to the late Bill and Jo Ellard, the EE Ranches Inc. $200,000 endowment led to $18,250 in scholarships being awarded in the fall of 2006. This endowment was the beginning of great things to come for the HYFA, and 13 years later, HYFA annually pays out $200,000 in spring and fall scholarships alone with hopes of continued growth and opportunities for the Hereford youth. This kind of growth is monumental and thanks to continued support by a vast network of donors, the foundation has been able to make greater strides in the leadership and education arenas. HYFA is excited about the tremendous support from industry partners, such as BioZyme Inc., Merck Animal Health and Sullivan Supply. BioZyme and Merck play a major role in the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout program and Sullivan Supply is the official industry partner and show supplier of the Junior National Hereford Expo.

Fundraising at a Glance

Do you want to be part of the 1% club? Those giving 1% back, that is. In 2018 the Foundation 1 Club was initiated by Sierra Ranches, Modesto, Calif., with 1% of the proceeds of their fall production sale being donated to HYFA. This program has continued to grow momentum with The Ladies of the Royal and Mile High Night Sales following suit. Some of the newest

Foundation 1 partners include Mason Mountain Mistletoe, the family of the late Edgar W. Roth Jr., and Ghostwood Blended Bourban. It is because of new and innovative programs like this that the fundraising continues to gain momentum and has never been stronger. We welcome new Foundation 1 supporters each year and invite you to come grow with HYFA and see how 1% over time can make such a significant difference. A partnership with Merck Animal Health was born out of the same Foundation 1 concept. The company has agreed to partner with HYFA and has pledged up to $15,000 to support educational programs like the NJHA Fed Steer Shootout and Junior National Hereford Expo. As a partner in education, Merck has committed $100 for every Merck picture submitted to any different Hereford social media platform. They say that a picture says a thousand words. These pictures are chanting scholarship, leadership and education, considering the funds will go to benefit these programs. So be sure to send in pictures of Merck products at work in your operation.

Leave a Lasting Legacy

Memorials through the foundation have become a popular way to honor a lost loved one’s memory. Families may choose to endow a scholarship in their family member’s name or simply support the general fund with memorial gifts. Either way, memorials are a special way to leave a lasting legacy in the foundation, and over time, these memorials are making a significant impact on HYFA’s educational and leadership programs. HYFA supports the programs and activities that not only benefit the Hereford breed, but also help establish the future of the Hereford breed for tomorrow’s youth. The most common methods of giving include cash donations, stocks, sponsorships and memorials, but we are always receptive to new and innovative ways to increase support. Since HYFA is a 501(c)(3) corporation, all contributions are tax deductible, and no gift is too big or too small when it comes to supporting the foundation and leaving a lasting legacy.

Mission Statement

The National Junior Hereford Association’s (NJHA) mission is to create and promote enthusiasm for the Hereford breed while providing opportunities through leadership, education and teamwork, thus ensuring a brighter future for youth and the cattle industry. The NJHA is one of the largest, strongest and most active junior programs in the country, not just exclusive to the beef industry. The NJHA, through its extensive leadership programs, continues to lay the foundation for the next generation of the beef industry producers and leaders. Watching the juniors grow from young participants and exhibitors through the programs laid out for them to flourish into strong adults and leaders is truly inspirational. Past junior directors and members now lead the beef industry in a variety of roles, using the skills they developed through the association and the junior board. The NJHA membership is continuing to rise from 3,545 active members in 2019 to a membership of over 3,800 with 39 state associations. Do you want to be a member of the NJHA? If you are under the age of 22 and love Hereford cattle, this is the place for you and you are eligible. Simply fill out the online form found on the website JrHereford.org. Then you’re on your way to becoming a junior member in one of the largest beef breed organizations in the world.

Junior National Hereford Expo

One of the largest beef breed shows in the U.S., the Junior National Hereford Expo (JNHE) has continued to stay strong despite the tumultuous events of the past year. This is the highlight of the NJHA’s summer activities, providing a place for members across the country to connect over their love for the Hereford breed, and develop as leaders through different educational contests. This 2021 theme is “Hereford Spectacular,” a celebration of all things Americana and Hereford together in one event. July 3-9, in Kansas City, Mo., the members of the NJHA and their families will descend upon the grounds of the American Royal Complex to show the best of the breed. Make sure to mark your calendars as next year’s JNHE will be held in Louisville, Ky., July 9-16 at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center, returning to the “Banners in the Bluegrass” theme, which had to sadly be postponed in 2020.

Faces of Leadership

Within the mission statement of NJHA, leadership is a key component of cultivating

the young members of the Hereford breed. That means that showing the best livestock is not the only component of the NJHA, and the Faces of Leadership conference is a perfect example of that. This annual conference travels to different locations across the country, touring universities, exploring industry leading innovators and developing leadership skills. The 2021 conference will be held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, July 28-31, including tours of Oklahoma State University, exploring industry companies and hearing inspirational leadership training from Kelly Barnes and others. This conference is open to junior members between the ages of 14-21 and is made possible by the ColeyMalir Endowment Fund. We encourage all juniors to participate and grow as individuals.

Fed Steer Shootout

Celebrating the completion of its fifth year, the Fed Steer Shootout is a one-ofa-kind experience for the juniors of the NJHA. This program focuses on the necessary portion of the beef industry that is outside of the show ring, where cattle are fed out at the feedlot. Hosted at HRC Feed Yards in Scott City, Kan., cattle arriving at the end of 2020 compete in the 2021 contest, weighing between 500-800 pounds upon delivery. Throughout the months that the cattle are on feed, the participants are taught a number of sessions by those involved in the feedlot industry, from the employees at the feed yard to veterinarians on site to pharmaceutical sales representatives and everyone in between. The goal is to give them a well-rounded view of the sector of the beef industry that is so vital to feeding the world. These informational sessions come with quizzes, and scores on these quizzes are taken into account to provide awards and prizes at the end of the feeding phase. In addition to these virtual lessons, NJHA hosted the first fed steer shootout field day at HRC Feed Yards in April. This educational event brought juniors and their families together from 14 states to see their steers on feed and to gain a better understanding about the cattle feeding industry and the path the steers took once they were delivered to the feed yard in December.

of donors and outside support, and that includes scholarships. Our organization is devoted to promoting education as well as supporting the juniors who seek advanced education. The cost of college, universities and trade schools can be daunting, and it is the goal of the NJHA and the Hereford Youth Foundation (HYFA) to lessen that burden. Awarding more than $200,000 each year, donors and fundraising continue to grow, providing more and more scholarship opportunities for higher education. Spring scholarships have a deadline of April 1, to be awarded at the JNHE, and fall scholarships are due September 10, awarded virtually at the American Hereford Association’s Annual Meeting.

Leading Leaders

The NJHA focuses on leadership for

all of its members, but an elected few are chosen to lead those leaders. Voted on by their peers and other members, each year a new four are selected to serve a three-year term on the NJHA Board of Directors. Elected at the junior membership annual meeting held in conjunction with the JNHE, candidates campaign to be a leader for the coming years of the NJHA. Travel to various shows and activities across the country is one component of being a director, as well as the planning of different events for the rest of the junior membership. Serving on this board creates some of the most well-rounded leaders of their age and builds a strong foundation for the breed to come. NJHA board applications are due June 1 each year, and all guidelines, bylaws and requirements may be found at JrHereford.org.

2021 Hereford Handbook / 13

Hereford Show Information AHA Show Rules • All cattle including calves on the side of cow-calf pairs and senior yearlings entered must be registered in the Herd Book of the American Hereford Association (AHA). Entries with registrations “pending” or illegible tattoos or improper tattoos as shown on the registration certificate at check-in time are ineligible for competition. Exhibitors are subject to the Association’s special rule on class qualification. Entries in these classes are accepted with the understanding that the exhibitor agrees to abide by the rule in all respects. • The exhibition of cattle displaying false hair will not be allowed. • Any product administered internally or used externally to alter the conformation of an animal for exhibition is prohibited. This includes the use of graphite, hemp or other similar substances externally and steroids or growth stimulants internally. • The act of artificially filling animals internally, which includes stomach pumping, drench tubes or any other method by mouth or esophagus, is prohibited. • All animals shown in group classes must have been shown in their respective single-age class. No transfer from one (1) breed to another, after entry, will be permitted. • Expected Progeny Difference (EPD) values will be provided to the judge and audience for all animals shown. Animals without EPD data are eligible to show but will have N/A (not available) in place of missing data. • It is recommended by the AHA Show Committee that classes with 10 or more head be considered to be split, depending on animals’ birthdates in each particular class. • Any animal without a legible tattoo will not be eligible to show.

• All Hereford animals must be officially recorded (registered) 30 days prior to show date to be eligible to show at a National Hereford Show. • An animal that is scurred (scurs are small, rudimentary horns that are loosely attached to the head, which are considered to be expressed only in animals that are genetically heterozygous for the polled gene) will show in the polled division of Hereford shows. Once an animal is confirmed to be scurred by an AHA field representative, then this designation will be placed on the animal’s registration papers. Once this determination has been made and reported to the AHA office, then the owner may remove the scurs. Animals with scurs removed will show in the polled division of Hereford shows. Once an animal is confirmed polled or scurred, it will retain this designation forever. • The individual classes will be made up and divided after the cattle are checked in at the show. They will be judged from the youngest to the oldest animal within each class. • Calves on the side of cow-calf pairs and senior yearlings MUST BE the cow’s natural calf and fully registered with the AHA. • For cattle exhibited at the Cattleman’s Congress: › Exhibitors with senior bull calves and/or intermediate, yearling and senior bulls are required to provide a licensed veterinarian’s statement indicating the bull has been semen checked and evaluated as fertile. Semen evaluation is to occur within 90 days of the show. This statement must be presented at check-in during the Cattleman’s Congress. › Exhibitors with females in the spring and junior yearling divisions must be confirmed pregnant within 45 days of show by a licensed veterinarian or by blood test or show with a calf at side.

AHA Show Classifications The decision to have both a Hereford and polled Hereford show or to have a combined show will be left up to the discretion of the state breed associations and show management.

National junior show ownership rule

Cow-calf pairs, heifers and steers may be jointly owned by siblings provided all are individual members of the National Junior Hereford Association and are between the ages of seven and 22 as of Jan. 1 of the current year. No animal is eligible to compete if recorded in joint ownership (other than the sibling rule) or ownership of farm or family name. Bred-and-owned bulls, however, may be owned by the exhibitor, a ranch/family name as long as the junior exhibitor is also the breeder.

Points for national and regional show bull and show female of the year will be based on the Regional Show Point System. Animals do not have to show in a regional show in order to be eligible for show bull or female of the year in the respective four quadrants. An animal may only win show bull or female of the year for one quadrant per year. Ownership percentage followed by ownership succession (breeder, first owner, second owner, etc.) will determine from which quadrant the animal will be recognized.

AHA point shows and awards • Official results from the show staff must be submitted within 30 days of completion of the show. • Results must contain the following: › Eight-digit AHA registration number › Complete registration name as recorded in the AHA registration system › Owner(s) as listed on the papers from the AHA registration system • In order for results to be included in the calculation for show animals of the year, shows must have at least 25 head exhibited at the show. • Shows that are listed as a national or regional point show as specified by the AHA show and sale committee will submit results to Bailey Clanton with the AHA at bclanton@hereford.org or mail them to American Hereford Association, Attn: Bailey Clanton, 11500 N. Ambassador Dr., Ste. 410, Kansas City, MO 64153.

AHA Rules and Regulations SECTION I: MEMBERSHIP A. Membership Types

1. Life membership 2. Annual (recording) membership 3. Junior membership 4. Non-resident membership

B. Life membership Life memberships that were purchased in the past will continue to be recognized by the Association. Life members only pay member service fees and do not pay dues. Life members may attend all meetings of the Association. They have voting rights at all official membership meetings as long as they are active members (have registered at least one animal in the previous calendar year). Life members receive member rate fees for registering and transferring Hereford cattle. Life memberships can be transferred to immediate family members; however, the membership name must remain the same.

C. Annual (recording) membership Recording memberships are annual memberships issued by the Association in the name of an individual, farm or ranch, partnerships or corporation. To remain active, the recording member must pay annual dues on the anniversary date of their joining as a recording member. Recording members may attend all meetings of the Association. They have voting rights at all official membership meetings as long as they are active members (have registered at least one animal in the previous calendar year). Recording members receive member rate fees for registering and transferring Hereford cattle.

D. Junior membership Junior membership in the Association is available to anyone under 22 years of age. The fee for junior membership is $15, assessed annually on September 1. The junior membership is available until the holder reaches his or her 22nd birthday. At that time, he/ she may acquire an adult (life or recording) membership. Junior members have all of the privileges of recording members (except voting) including member rate fees for registering and transferring Hereford cattle, as well as participating in junior activities and scholarships.

E. Non-resident membership Non-resident members are non-voting members residing in another country that wish to take advantage of member services including registry, total performance recording, selling of semen to members, and transfer of ownership of animals to other members. Nonresident members are subject to the same rules and fees as U.S. resident members.

F. Annual member service fee Lifetime, recording and junior memberships require an annual member service fee of $100 ($20 for junior members) in order to register an animal during the current fiscal year. The fiscal year is September 1 through August 31. Each paid member service fee will generate a one-year subscription to the Hereford World magazine (except in the case of a junior membership). This fee is used to offset the costs of several under-funded services offered to active registry accounts.

G. Membership herd designation The Association has two different tiers or levels in which members can participate when registering and transferring Hereford cattle. The mechanisms for billing of services and services available are different between each of the tiers; therefore, each membership account must be designated as to which tier or level

the member’s herd will participate in. Each membership can have only one participation level designation. The two tiers and a brief description of each are as follows: Pedigree registry: This participation level is designed for breeders who wish to register and transfer purebred Hereford cattle but are not interested in maintaining and reporting performance data to AHA. Pedigree registry breeders can submit registry and transfer applications on a per head fee basis established by the Board of Directors. Pedigree breeders choose to waive performance recording on their animals and, therefore, waive the production of EPDs on their herd. Performance registry: This participation level is structured and oriented to simplify the billing and reporting of performance testing herds. Registry and transfer fees are assessed at the same rate as for pedigree breeders. Performance registry breeders are also required to maintain an accurate and up-to-date female inventory, listing all females currently in their breeding herd with AHA. Performance registry breeders are required to annually report calving ease and weaning weight information on the produce of every female in the inventory. Additional measures including birth and yearling weights, as well as carcass traits, can be reported but are not required. EPDs will be printed on the certificate. EPDs will only be reported on registered animals. Nonregistered animals or genetic material will not be provided EPDs.

SECTION II: AHA RECORDS, RULES AND POLICY Application for registration of your calves is a part of the record keeping requirement of Hereford cattle. Extra careful attention to detail in submitting applications for registration will save time for you and your Association. Be sure all information is supplied and that information is accurate and legible. Applying for registry of your calves when they are still young (four months or younger) is important, SINCE IT REDUCES THE RISK OF ERROR AND SAVES YOU BOTH TIME AND MONEY. There is one basic form used by the Association for registration application. Breeders participating at the pedigree registry level should disregard the fields of information used to submit birth performance data. Reports generated from the processing of registration applications will be appropriate for the breeder’s level of participation.

Tattooing calves Tattoos are a requirement for registry in the American Hereford Record. Hereford breeders were the first to adopt the ear tattoo as a requirement for registry. A tattoo outfit consists of a pair of specially designed pliers with rows of digits numbered 0 to 9 and a bottle of India ink. Such equipment may be purchased from most livestock supply stores. Select the desired number by rotating the digits in the ear marker. Before punching the animal’s ear, assure yourself that everything is in order by punching a piece of cardboard. Next, restrain the calf’s head so as to prevent violent movement while applying the tattoo. Select a spot in the center of the ear and clean thoroughly with a cloth and rubbing alcohol. Avoid placing the tattoo over one of the ribs of the ear but rather place the tattoo between the ribs of the ear. Place the ear between the jaws of the pliers with the numbers or letters on the inside of the ear. Close the pliers quickly and firmly and then release. Use a finger or toothbrush to smear ink over the punctures made by the tattoo and rub thoroughly until ink is worked into each of the holes. Make a written record of the marks placed in the ear. It is strongly advised that breeders place the tattoo in both ears to enhance the chances that a complete tattoo identity can be established. 2021 Hereford Handbook / 25

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

Herd Book of the American Hereford Association Rule 1. OFFICIAL RECORD: The official record of the Association shall be the American Hereford Record. Such record shall be maintained in the AHA office. Rule 2. HERD BOOK: Entries in the American Hereford Record shall contain the registration number, name, sex, tattoo, date of birth, name and registry number of the sire and dam and the name of the breeder.

SECTION III: REGISTRATIONS Rule 1. PRIVILEGES OF REGISTRATION: Applications for entry will only be accepted from members. Non-members must become members in order to register an animal. Rule 2. ELIGIBILITY: To be eligible for entry in the American Hereford Record, an animal must be the offspring of registered parents, both of which have been previously recorded in the American Hereford Record. Both horned and polled Herefords are eligible for entry into the record. Herefords registered in other associations (members of the World Hereford Council) can be entered in the American Hereford Record, thereby making their offspring eligible for registration. Rule 3. APPLICATION FOR ENTRY: Application for entry should be made on the official application form (FORM 1) or through an official AHA approved electronic software system. Rule 4. AGE OF SIRE: There is no minimum or maximum age specified for a Hereford sire or his progeny to be eligible for entry. However, applications indicating the sire was less than nine months of age at time of service will be questioned for accuracy. Rule 5. AGE OF DAM: There is no minimum or maximum age specified for a Hereford dam or her progeny to be eligible for entry. However, applications indicating that the dam was less than nine months of age at time of conception will be questioned for accuracy. Rule 6. 283-DAY RULE: A calf born less than 283 days after the birth of its dam’s previous calf will be questioned. The breeder must then provide an explanation for the early delivery and a ruling will be made as to whether the entry will be allowed. Rule 7. 21-DAY RULE: Females exposed to one bull must not be exposed to another bull in less than 21 days after such exposure. Avoiding double or multiple exposures will help provide positive identification of the service sire. Exposure to a second bull in less than 21 days might mean the correct service sire cannot be positively identified, requiring DNA typing of both sires, the dam and the calf. Rule 8. DNA TYPING: • All Hereford bulls born after Jan. 1, 2011, are required to be DNA typed at the official AHA DNA laboratory before their progeny can be registered. • Whenever the eligibility for registration of any animal is in doubt because of uncertain or unknown parentage, DNA typing by the Association shall be required. Rule 9. MULTIPLE BIRTH: Twins or other multiple birth calves are eligible for registration. The application for registry, however, should specify such at birth. Rule 10. TATTOO: Calves must be tattooed before application for registry is made. Each breeder may devise his own plan or system of tattoo identification using either numbers or letters or a combination of both. Any marks other than numbers or letters, however, are not permitted — meaning brand marks, symbols, etc. cannot be used. Duplication of tattoos within your herd is strongly discouraged as tattoos are frequently used by breeders as a primary form of identification. Duplication can lead to much 26 / 2021 Hereford Handbook

confusion for breeder and the Association office alike. The tattoo in one ear shall be limited to a maximum of eight characters. If the tattoo should become illegible, the same marking shall be placed in a different area of the ear. No attempt shall be made to alter or over-imprint the old tattoo. The Association must be notified when an animal is retattooed. Rule 11. NAMING HEREFORDS: It is the responsibility of the owner to select names for his cattle. The name must not be more than 30 spaces long, counting spaces between words. For example, PRINCE DOMINO ADVANCE JUNO 133 is exactly 30 spaces long. Brands, symbols and commas cannot be used. Avoid duplicating names as no two Herefords should be named the same. It is the breeder’s responsibility to avoid using names and prefixes that are being used by other breeders. Names should be appropriate for the gender of the animal, and it is recommended that names reflect the line of breeding where possible. Embryo transfer calves will carry the designation embryo transfer (ET) at the end of their name, accounting for three spaces. The Association reserves the right to change the name assigned to an animal on an application for registry if the name submitted is deemed to be inappropriate. Rule 12. CHANGING NAMES: The name of a Hereford may be changed, provided the animal has no registered offspring. The name may be changed only once in the lifetime of an animal. All owners must agree to the name change in the case of a partnership-owned animal. Letters must be submitted from the first and all current owners requesting the change of name along with the certificate and required fee. Rule 13. JOINT OWNERSHIP (BREEDING INTEREST): No application for registration or transfer of an animal which shows more than four owners shall be accepted for entry in the American Hereford Record. Rule 14. DUPLICATE CERTIFICATES: If original certificates are lost or destroyed, the owner may secure duplicates from the Association by providing the sex, registry number and tattoo of each animal. If the registry number is not available, the registration number of the dam, name of the person who registered the animal, and the sex, age and tattoo of the animal in question must be provided. The fee for duplicate certificates for members and non-members is available from the AHA Records Department. Rule 15. CORRECTION OF CERTIFICATES: It is recognized that occasionally errors are committed in registering cattle, and these should be corrected. If an error is discovered, it should be reported to the Association immediately and the incorrect certificate returned with a letter of explanation. Corrections are made without charge if done within six months of the issue date or if the Association made the error. The fee for making corrections after the six-month period is available from the AHA Records Department. Rule 16. ARTIFICIAL SERVICE: Calves may be registered that were produced through artificial insemination (AI) provided they comply with the rules governing AI as discussed in SECTION V: ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION. Rule 17. ELIGIBILITY FOR EMBRYO TRANSPLANT CALVES: Registration of offspring resulting from embryo transplant (ET) shall be made on an Application for Registration (Form 1). Certificates issued shall be designated by ET following the name of the calf. The name must be no longer than 30 characters long including the ET designation. Registry of offspring resulting from ET may be implemented only after the following steps have been taken: • DNA profile of sire and donor dam must be recorded with the Association. DNA profile kits are available from the

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

Association. The names and registry numbers of the animals to be tissue sampled must be supplied. • Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service must accompany the application for each calf when the sire is not in the same recorded ownership as the donor dam. Rule 17A. NEW EMBRYO TRANSFER POLICY: For ET calves there will no longer be an ET certificate required for registration. The new requirement for registering an ET calf will be the reporting of the recovery date of the embryo at the time of registry. ET calves will be charged an additional $10 per head over and above the normal registry rate. Rule 18. LEASING HEREFORDS: Herefords may be leased, provided a statement of lease is on file with the Association. If a lease statement is on file listing each animal being leased by name and registration number, the lessee can register calves sired by the bulls or produced by the cows as if he were the actual owner, provided there are no more than three owners already listed. At the end of the lease period, unless extended, registration privileges revert back to the recorded owner. In order to make this process more efficient and less confusing, the Association will adopt the following policies regarding leasing Hereford cattle: • The required information needed by the Association for leasing animals will be communicated using one consistent and common lease form to be used by all members wishing to participate in this type of practice. The lease form will contain only the required information for the Association’s needs and is to be used expressly for that intent. The lease form should not be construed as a binding agreement between the lessor and lessee. The Association shall in no way be involved in or assume liability for the lease, terms of the lease of registered Herefords, or the passage of legal rights thereto. • All lease periods must include a beginning and ending date; no open-ended leases will be accepted. • All animals involved in the lease shall be included on the lease form(s) by their registration number and name. • The lease form must be submitted by the lessor with his/her signature. • Should the lessor and lessee agree to extend the lease, documented notification will be required in the Association’s office should the birth dates of any calves being registered out of sire or dams involved in the lease not coincide with the time period of the lease. • If the lessor or lessee wishes to lease additional or different animals, then an additional lease form(s) should be completed with all required information and submitted by the lessor. Rule 19. IMPORTED HEREFORDS: Herefords imported from another country must be recorded in the American Hereford Record if their calves are to be registered. Registration of imported cattle must be accomplished within one year from the date of purchase of imported cattle. See section for the procedures for recording imported cattle or semen interests in bulls from another country. Rule 20. REGISTRATION OF HEREFORDS OVER TWO YEARS OF AGE: Application for registration of an animal received by the Association after two years from the date of birth shall be considered for registration only when accompanied by a written statement from the applicant setting forth the reason application was not submitted within the generally accepted registration period. These applications and required fees must be approved by the Board of Directors. Rule 21. REGISTRATION FOR THE ESTATE OF A DECEASED PERSON: In the event of the death of one who normally would

apply for registration of cattle, the Association requires there shall be filed in its office all documents necessary to prove the person requesting registration is legally authorized to do so. Rule 22. REGISTRATION BY AFFIDAVIT: In case of neglect or refusal by the seller to register a calf sold at side of dam, registration may be approved by the Board of Directors on the basis of the facts furnished to substantiate the claim. Each affidavit must be accompanied by proof of a sale and payment in full of the purchase price and evidence of whether the dam’s breeding was natural or artificial. Rule 23. REGISTRATION ACCURACY: Accurately kept private records are essential, and in any case where an application is regarded as questionable, the burden of the proof with regard to same shall belong to the applicant, who must sustain his claims by a preponderance of evidence. Whenever the accuracy of data contained in an application to register an animal is challenged, the matter may be referred to the Board of Directors for investigation. Rule 24. MISREPRESENTATION OR FRAUD: If an animal’s registration has been obtained through misrepresentation or fraud, or if the date of birth, tattoo number, sire, dam or service information or any other fact regarding the animal has been misrepresented, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board may take such actions and impose such sanctions as it deems necessary.

SECTION IV: TRANSFER OF REGISTRATIONS Rule 1. RESPONSIBILITY: It is the responsibility of the seller of registered Herefords to execute properly the official transfer of ownership to the buyer. Every change of ownership of an animal used for breeding purposes must be recorded by official transfer on the American Hereford Record. No entry on the face of the certificate of registry shall be made except in the office of the Association and any unauthorized entry shall render a certificate null and void, subject to issuance of a replacement certificate at an additional fee. Rule 2. IDENTIFICATION: It shall be the duty of the seller, before offering a registered Hereford for sale or applying for transfer, to verify that the animal carries legible tattoo marks matching those entered on its certificate. Rule 3. APPLICATION FOR TRANSFER: Application for transfer shall be made either electronically through AHA’s online service or in hard copy form on the reverse side of the registration certificate and signed by the seller or an authorized agent. The application should be legibly completed and must specify name and location of the buyer and date of delivery. For bred females, service information is also required. Rule 4. COWS WITH CALF AT SIDE: When a cow is transferred with a calf at side, the calf must first be registered to the individual, partnership or corporation in whose name the cow was registered on the date of birth of the calf. A separate transfer of the calf is then required to the new owner. This is often referred to as a “transfer on entry.” (See backside of registration application.) Rule 5. CALF TRANSFERRED AT TIME OF REGISTRATION: As described above, a calf must first be registered in the membership name of the dam’s owner at the time of birth. Then a separate transfer to the new owner is required. Rule 6. TRANSFER BY AFFIDAVIT: In the event of neglect or refusal by the seller to apply for transfer of registration, transfer may be recorded if approved by a majority of the Board of Directors on the basis of the facts furnished to substantiate the claim. Each affidavit must be accompanied by proof of sale and payment in full of the purchase price of the animal. Rule 7. TRANSFERS CONSIGNED TO PUBLIC SALE: Sale 2021 Hereford Handbook / 27

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

managers or their representatives may fill in the buyer’s name on the application for transfer of animals consigned to public sales, and if authorized by the consignor, sign such transfers in his stead. Such applications must indicate the name of the sale manager or agent representing the consignor. Applications executed under this rule are subject to Rule 12 of this section. Rule 8. TRANSFER FROM THE ESTATE OF A DECEASED PERSON: In the event of the death of the owner of Hereford cattle, the Association requires that there should be filed in its office, documents showing the person requesting transfer is legally authorized and entitled to request such transfer. Applications executed under this rule are also subject to Rule 13 of this section. Rule 9. TRANSFER OF EXPORTED ANIMALS: Application for transfer of an animal exported to another country shall be made with a regular Transfer Application. Rule 10. RESPONSIBILITY OF LEGAL TITLE: A transfer of registration on the records of the American Hereford Association is not to be construed as the conveyance of legal title by the Association. The Association shall in no way be involved in or assume liability for the purchase, sale or terms of the sale of registered Herefords or the passage of legal title thereto. Rule 11. JOINTLY OWNED ANIMALS: No animal shall be transferred to more than four owners of record at any one time. A “syndicate” or similar type entity consisting of one or more individuals, firms, etc. may be listed as one or more of the four designated owners of record. Rule 12. MISREPRESENTATION OR FRAUD: If an animal’s registration has been transferred through misrepresentation or fraud, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board may take such actions and impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate as provided in Article IX of the Bylaws, including, without limitation, suspension of the animal’s registration and any registrations of descendants of such animal and refusals of the Association to receive subsequent application of any kind from any person implicated in the misrepresentation or fraud. Rule 13. AUTHORIZED SIGNATURE: A certificate of registry does not establish legal ownership of cattle but simply reflects the name in which cattle are registered on the books of the Association. The Association will usually make any requested change or transfer of cattle registration upon the presentation, to the Association, of the Registry Certificate covering the cattle and purporting to be signed with the name in which the Registry Certificate is issued. Due to the large number of transfers, it is impractical for the Association to verify signatures or require proof that the person signing the Registry Certificate and requesting change or transfer is in fact authorized to do so. Accordingly, a Registry Certificate should be kept in a safe place to insure against its falling into the hands of an unauthorized person who could then cause change or transfer of registration on the Association’s books and the issuance of a new Registry Certificate. If the Association receives conflicting instructions regarding any change or transfer of registration, the Association will, unless restrained by appropriate court order, honor the request of the person presenting the appropriate Registry Certificate.

SECTION V: ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION Rule 1. DNA PROFILING: All bulls used in an artificial insemination program must be DNA profiled and a record of their DNA profile must be filed with the Association before calves sired artificially by such bulls shall be eligible for registration or before Non-Owner AI Certificates may be purchased. The official policy of the Association is to use DNA only for parentage verification as of December 2002. Rule 2. AI BULL PERMIT: The breeder using a bull for artificial 28 / 2021 Hereford Handbook

breeding purposes must have received an AI bull permit issued by the Association. The Association must have on file a DNA profile report for the bull and his parents before the AI bull permit will be issued. Rule 3. DEATH OF BULLS: Calves conceived after the death of a bull shall be eligible for registration under the same conditions and provisions governing the eligibility of calves conceived by AI. The Association may request that calves sired by deceased bulls be parentage verified. Ownership of a deceased bull may be transferred if they are AI permitted. Rule 4. LABELING OF SEMEN: Semen must be properly identified by name and registration number of the bull and the date of collection. Unlabeled or mislabeled semen should not be used to produce calves for registration in the American Hereford Record. It shall be the responsibility of the owner of record or each co-owner of record of a bull used artificially to require each person or organization collecting, processing and freezing semen to identify the semen before freezing. Rule 5. WITHIN HERD USE: No Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service are required to register the resulting offspring when both cow and bull are in the same recorded ownership. When the cow and bull are not in the same recorded ownership, Rule 6 below applies. Rule 6. OUT-OF-HERD CALVES BY NON-OWNED SIRES: All sires used in AI service must be DNA profiled. Bulls that are DNA profiled after January 1, 1986, must also have both parents’ DNA profiles on file with AHA to qualify for Non-Owner AI Certificates. A DNA profile may be obtained by sending the appropriate hair samples to AHA’s official DNA lab for processing. DNA profiles from eligible animals, which originate in the official DNA lab of other Hereford associations, will be accepted for processing by AHA. Those sires for which a parent is not available for DNA profiling may only be used for AI service in the herds of the recorded owners, unless such bulls qualify for analysis to provide a derived type for the dead parent. (Contact AHA for further information on this special ruling.) The following requirements shall apply to register calves conceived artificially when the recorded owner of the female is not the recorded owner or one of the recorded owners of the sire at the time of conception:

Option A:

• A bull may enter the Non-Owner AI Sire Program, which allows the owner(s) of a bull to sell semen without the need of an AI certificate for registration of the offspring of the bull. Calves born on or after December 1, 2006, are eligible for registry under this program. • For a bull to be entered into this program, an agreement must be signed by all owners of the bull and kept on file at the AHA. If the bull is owned by a syndicate, the owners listed on the certificate will need to sign the agreement along with the designated representative of the syndicate. • For a bull to be entered into this program, he must have an AI permit issued (see Rule 2). • There is a one-time fee of $100 to enter a bull into this program. Once a bull is entered into the program, he will not be allowed to switch back to the certificate program (Option B).

Option B:

• The breeder (recorded owner of the female at time of conception) must obtain a Non-Owner AI Certificate of Service for each calf to be recorded from the individual or firm supplying the semen and such certificates must accompany the application for registration of the resulting offspring.

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

• The recorded owner of the bull from which the semen was sold is obligated to supply the number of Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service contracted for at the time the semen was purchased. • Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service may be obtained from the Association by active members of the Association who are the recorded owner or co-owners of the bull at a fee established by the Board of Directors.It is the responsibility of the owner of the dam at the time of service to complete the Non-Owner AI Certificate of Service. Rule 7. LIMITATIONS: The Board may cancel the Non-Owner AI Permit for any bull which has been scientifically documented as being a carrier of a deleterious gene which produces an economically important genetic defect in his calves. Rule 8. LIMITATIONS: The Board may restrict or limit the number of Non-Owner AI Certificates for an individual bull if, in the judgement of the Board and based on scientific information, such bull is being used so excessively as to cause irreparable damage to the breed’s genetic base. Rule 9. NON-OWNER SEMEN CERTIFICATE ALLOCATION FOR MULTI-OWNER SIRES: To obtain AI Certificates from a multi-owned sire, one must be a recorded owner or co-owner of the sire. Certificates will be issued on request to any recorded owner. Contractual agreements regarding certificate privileges among multi-owners are the responsibility of those owners. In the instance where a recorded owner of the sire is a multi-owner group, it is the responsibility of the owner group’s designated spokesman to handle the distribution of non-owner AI semen certificates. Individual members of the multi-owner group, not otherwise recorded as one of the four recorded owners of record of the sire, will be required to secure Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service from a recorded owner in order to register offspring of the sire from their recorded dams. The American Hereford Association (AHA) will provide a service whereby an AHA member can participate in a “Breeding Share Agreement” for bulls. When members participate in a “Breeding Share Agreement,” they can be individually invoiced for AI certificates when calves are registered. Rule 10. SEMEN DONATIONS TO COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES: The Association will make donated AI Certificates of Service available for use by colleges or universities when a breeder makes a donation of semen from a qualified bull. The semen certificates will be issued to the college or university at no cost to the breeder. The following rules must be complied with: • The semen must be a donation to the college or university. • The breeder must apply for the donation certificates in the form of a letter to AHA indicating the institution to which the donation is made. • The bull must qualify under the current rules for NonOwner AI Certificates of Service. • The certificates and semen must be used by the institution that received the donation. Applications for registry from any other party will not be accepted. • Upon approval by the Association, donated AI Certificates of Service will be issued directly to the college or university. Rule 11. LIABILITY: The issuance of Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service by the Association should in no way be construed as guaranteeing conception or that the resulting calf shall be eligible for registration. There shall be no refunding of fees paid to the Association for these certificates.

SECTION VI: IMPORTING OF REGISTERED HEREFORDS Rule 1. EXPORT CERTIFICATE: Registration of an animal originally recorded in the Herd Book of a member of the World Hereford Council shall be accepted only if a registry certificate

is issued by the recognized registry organization of the country of origin. Rule 2. APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION: Registration may be applied for within one year by the breeder importing an animal originally recorded in the Herd Book of another member of the World Hereford Council and whose name appears as purchaser on the export certificate. The registry fee must accompany the request for registration. Rule 3. REGISTRATION OF CALVES IMPORTED IN DAM: If a cow was bred prior to importation and a record of service does not appear on the export certificate, the owner of the sire on the date of service must certify to the particulars of service through the recognized registry organization of the country of origin. When the imported cow was bred by artificial insemination, there must be on file with the recognized registry organization in the country of origin a blood type or DNA profile of the service sire. When the imported dam was bred artificially by a bull owned by a breeder in the U.S. and where no semen interest is owned by the breeder in the exporting country, a Non-Owner AI Certificate of Service must accompany the application for registry of the resulting progeny. Rule 4. REGISTRATION OF CALVES IMPORTED AT SIDE: Registration of a calf imported at side of its dam shall be accepted only if the calf is also registered in the same recognized registry organization and a registry certificate has been received by the American Hereford Association (AHA). Rule 5. SEMEN INTEREST IN A BULL DOMICILED IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY: To use semen or to sell Non-Owner AI Certificates of Service, the bull must be recorded in the American Hereford Record by a member (either a member residing in the U.S. or non-resident dues paying member) of the American Hereford Association. All DNA profile rules apply. Rule 6. REGISTRATION OF CALVES RESULTING FROM EGGS IMPORTED FROM A FOREIGN COUNTRY will require a DNA profile match of the subject animal, the sire and the dam on file with the Association.

SECTION VII: DNA PROFILING Rule 1. DNA PROFILING: Over a period of years a vast amount of technical information has become available, and DNA profiling is now a useful tool for Association members. Applying for the DNA profile of an animal requires a request to AHA for a DNA profile kit for each animal to be tested. The request must include the name and registry number of the animal to be tested. The kit will contain all the necessary instructions for securing a DNA sample and the shipping instructions to send the sample to the designated AHA laboratory. Rule 2. AI SIRES: The rules of the Association require all sires of calves conceived artificially to be DNA profiled before their calves are eligible for registration. It is wise to have all herd bulls’ hair sampled early in life to make sure that the semen can be used after their death. Rule 3. DNA PARENTAGE VERIFICATION OF AI AND ET BORN CALVES: Starting December 1, 2006, the AHA will parentage verify every 250th calf registered with a service type of artificial insemination (AI) or embryo transfer (ET). If a calf is selected for verification under this program, the registration of the calf will be held until the parentage verification is complete. If the calf is from a mating of an AI sire and its dam is not available for sampling, the next calf registered will be selected without interruption of registration. The AHA will assume the DNA lab cost of parentage verification of the calf and DNA profile work on 2021 Hereford Handbook / 29

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

the dam (if required). Rule 4. ALL ANIMALS: A. The Association may require that any animal which has been registered by the Association be subjected to a DNA profile test to verify breed purity and accuracy of the recorded parentage. The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors or the Board of Directors or the Executive Vice President may require that a DNA profile be made, by such agencies as it or he may designate, of any Hereford animal which has been alleged to have been incorrectly recorded or for any animal for which tissue analysis is deemed advisable. It shall be the duty of the owner of record of any animal in question and the owner of record of the purported sire and dam to afford the Association or its representatives reasonable opportunity to secure DNA samples from the animals involved in the investigation. The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors is empowered to determine who shall pay the costs of any investigation, including laboratory fees assessed under the provisions of this rule. B. Prior to the filing of an entry application for any animal with respect to which a DNA profile is not on file with the Association, the Association may require the owner of said animal, at the owner’s cost, to provide a DNA sample for such animal to the Association’s designated laboratory and to provide a DNA profile to the Association from the Association’s designated laboratory. At any Hereford competition, the owner of any animal that wins such competition shall, promptly after the announcement that such animal has won such competition, permit the Association to secure a DNA sample from such animal. C. If, at any time, the Association is in possession of two (2) or more DNA profiles allegedly from the same animal that do not match, including the winner in any Hereford competition, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee may require the Executive Vice President to undertake such investigation as the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee deems appropriate, and, upon the conclusion of such investigation, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee may take such actions and impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate as provided in Article XI of the Bylaws, including without limitation the forfeiture of any prizes including any monetary awards or ribbons awarded to such animal at such competition, the suspension of the registration of the animal in question, the suspension of the owner’s membership or the revocation of the owner’s membership. Any such investigation may include requiring any owner to permit the Association to secure another DNA sample from such animal. Rule 5. REFUSAL: If the owner of record shall refuse reasonable opportunity to the Association or its designated agents to secure DNA samples as set forth in Rule 3 of this Section, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board may take such actions and impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate as provided in Article IX of the Bylaws, including without limitation the suspension of the registration of the animal in question. Rule 6. NON-REGISTERED ANIMALS: The Association may collect and maintain DNA profiles on animals other than registered animals. The Association may, from time to time, compare the DNA profiles of registered animals and the DNA profiles of animals with respect to which applications for registration have been submitted with the DNA profiles of nonregistered animals. The Association may deny registration to, or revoke the registration of, any animal based on this comparison.

SECTION VIII: RULES REGARDING CLONES

Rule 1. ONLY REPLICATION CELL-CLONED animals shall be eligible for registration. Rule 2. THE CELL DONOR animal must be DNA-marker typed. Rule 3. THE BREEDER of the cell-donor animal must be identified as the breeder of the cell-cloned offspring. Rule 4. THE OWNER OF RECORD of the cell-donor, on the date of biopsy removal, will be identified as the first owner, unless the calf is the result of a pregnant recipient, purchased embryo — fresh or frozen — in which case the purchaser may be identified as the first owner. Rule 5. DNA MARKER typing of the cell-cloned animal, or recipient dams, may be required by the Association. Rule 6. CALVES CONCEIVED AFTER DEATH of cell-donor animals shall be eligible for registration under the same conditions and provisions governing the eligibility of calves prior to the death of said animal. Rule 7. REGISTRATION OF CELL-CLONED transplants shall be made on a special form, provided by the Association, at the regular fee, plus an additional fee as determined by the Board of Directors. Rule 8. REGISTRATION CERTIFICATES issued for cell-cloned transplants shall be so designated. The registration number of the animal which is being cell-cloned shall also be stated on the registration certificate. Rule 9. NOTHING SET FORTH herein should be construed as an indication that the Association takes any position as to the ownership rights, if any, of retained cell material. That is a separate matter reserved for discussion and/or negotiation between the buyer and seller. Rule 10. INITIAL BREEDING VALUES – EXPECTED PROGENY DIFFERENCES (EPDs) generated from National Cattle Evaluation for a cloned animal shall be the same values as the cell-donor animal. All data of future progeny from a cloned animal will be pooled with the cell-donor progeny data for genetic evaluation.

SECTION IX: GENE EDITING The AHA may accept registration of Hereford animals that have an intentional genomic alteration (IGA) produced by genome editing, subject to the following restrictions. Eligibility for registration will be restricted to those animals possessing an IGA that has been appropriately reviewed and approved by the applicable regulatory agency — currently the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additionally, animals with an IGA applying for registration will be subject to review and approval by the AHA Board of Directors, who will consider the impact of introducing the IGA into the purebred Hereford population, informed by scientific and industry standards and practices at the time application is reviewed. Application for registration — Members submitting registration applications for a genome-edited animal must follow all current rules for registration of Hereford animals. Additionally, all animals resulting from genome editing must be parent-verified through the AHA official service laboratory. The member applying for registration must provide documentation describing the IGA introduced and the proposed functional difference the IGA creates in the genome-edited animal. Animal naming — “PB” (Precision Breeding) will appear in the name of all genome-edited animals.

SECTION X: GENETIC DEFECT POLICY Procedures for collecting abnormality data and reporting the information to the AHA membership: Physical and functional abnormalities are present in all breeds

30 / 2021 Hereford Handbook

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

of cattle. In order to monitor abnormalities in Hereford cattle, the American Hereford Association requests the collection of abnormality information from AHA members on a voluntary basis. Specialist Dr. David Steffen, veterinarian for the University of Nebraska Veterinary and Biomedical Science Department, has worked closely with many breeds in the area of genetic abnormalities. The AHA will be working with him to diagnose abnormalities as being genetic or non-genetic in origin. Not all abnormalities are genetic in origin. Some defects can be attributed to sickness or nutrition. Dr. Steffen works to determine the root cause of the defect.

All AHA members are invited to read the procedures for reporting genetic abnormalities. A. Reporting Physical Abnormalities to AHA Any AHA member who becomes aware of a possible physical or functional abnormality in an AHA-registered animal shall immediately notify the AHA Director of Breed Improvement at 816-842-3757. Upon receiving notification of a possible physical functional abnormality, the AHA Records Department will take the following steps to confirm the abnormality and determine if it is genetic in origin: • Provide the member with an abnormality report form, which the member shall promptly complete and return to the AHA; • Provide the member with instructions for collecting and submitting for analysis, as deemed appropriate, blood and tissue samples from the animal in question. The reporting member shall promptly comply with all AHA instructions regarding the gathering and submission of tissue and blood samples.

B. AHA Genetic Consultant The AHA will refer confirmed physical abnormalities to a genetic consultant for analysis. The genetic consultant shall be chosen by the AHA Board. Currently the genetic consultant is David Steffen, DVM PhD, from the University of Nebraska. The AHA genetic consultant is responsible for determining if sufficient evidence exists to establish a definite cause of a particular physical abnormality. All AHA members shall cooperate fully in any investigation necessary to such determination. The genetic consultant will advise the Board of diagnostic criteria for established genetic diseases and will evaluate evidence to determine if diagnostic criteria are met. Dr. Steffen will perform these evaluations as a pathologist for the Nebraska University Diagnostic Center.

C. Notification to Owners of Affected Animals and Owners of Parents of Affected Animals

that such animal is a carrier of a genetic defect, the AHA will immediately notify by certified mail the owners of record of the confirmed carrier of the AHA’s intent to designate their animal as a confirmed carrier of a genetic defect. In addition, the AHA will immediately add a special code to the animal’s registration to indicate this fact. An animal that has been designated as a confirmed carrier of a genetic abnormality shall be immediately placed on a confirmed carrier list, which will be disseminated on the AHA website and which will be available upon request. Any AHA member who may be aggrieved by the AHA’s designation of a particular animal as a confirmed carrier of a genetic defect may file a complaint with the AHA Executive Committee within thirty (30) days after the mailing of the certified letter. The filing of such a complaint will not stay the confirmed carrier designation. The complaint shall be heard and disposed of by the Executive Committee in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article XI of AHA’s Bylaws. In the event that a complaint has not been filed within thirty (30) days after the mailing of the certified letter, the confirmed carrier designation will become final. In the event that the complaint results in a final unappealable determination that the subject animal is not a confirmed carrier of a genetic defect, AHA will immediately remove the special code from the animal’s registration. In addition, such animal shall be immediately removed from the confirmed carrier list. In the event that an AHA registered animal has an unbroken pedigree link to a confirmed carrier of a genetic defect and such animal has not been the subject of a negative DNA test that is conducted pursuant to Section E below and that conclusively indicates that such animal is not a carrier of a genetic defect, AHA shall immediately add a special code to such animal’s registration to indicate this fact. Any AHA member who may be aggrieved by AHA’s designation of a particular animal as a potential carrier of a genetic defect may file a complaint with the Executive Committee of AHA. The filing of such complaint will not stay the potential carrier designation. The complaint shall be heard and disposed of by the Executive Committee in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article XI of AHA’s Bylaws. In the event that the complaint results in a final unappealable determination that the subject animal is not a potential carrier of a genetic defect, AHA will immediately remove the special code from such animal’s registration. The results of a DNA test that is conducted pursuant to Section E below and that conclusively indicates that the subject animal is not a carrier of a genetic defect shall constitute conclusive evidence that the subject animal is not a potential carrier of a genetic defect.

E. DNA Genetic Abnormality Testing

Once a physical abnormality has been confirmed and parentage has been verified, all owners of record of the abnormal animal and owners of record of the parents of the abnormal animal will receive the following information from the AHA: • A description of the physical abnormality in question. • The recorded sire and dam of the abnormal animal. • Whether as a preliminary matter the abnormality appears to be genetic in origin. • If the abnormality appears to be genetic, what steps are planned to determine whether the parents of the abnormal animal are carriers of the physical abnormality.

In the case the AHA identifies a gene marker test for a genetic abnormality, animals may be tested to determine carrier status by an AHA approved laboratory. If breeders wish to officially confirm an animal free of a genetic abnormality and designate it as such on the animal’s pedigree, then the following guidelines must be met: • The breeder must request the DNA test kit from the AHA Records Department. • The results of the test must be returned directly to AHA from the official lab.

D. Notification to AHA Membership

The AHA currently recognizes the following physical abnormalities that have been confirmed by its genetic consultant to be genetic in origin under certain circumstances: • CLASS I (LETHAL) Snorter Dwarfism Maple Syrup Urine Disease (Neuraxial Edema)

Upon confirmation that an AHA-registered animal has either (i) produced a sufficient number of abnormal progeny (at least two confirmed, parent-identified cases) such that there is a high likelihood that such animal is a carrier of a genetic defect, or (ii) been the subject of positive DNA test (See Section E) that indicates

F. Classification of Genetic Abnormalities

2021 Hereford Handbook / 31

AHA Rules and Regulations continued

Alopecia/Anemia, Dyserythropoiesis – Symptoms: Short, curly hair, hair loss on neck and shoulder. Progressive generalized hair loss. White areas appear dirty and calves are anemic. – Confirmation: Blood test for anemia plus skin biopsy Color Dilutor – Symptoms: Carrier Hereford bulls or females when mated to black cattle can produce offspring with a haircoat that is gray, smokey or chocolate color. – Confirmation: Clinical diagnosis with photos

Internal Hydrocephalus Idiopathic Epilepsy (IE) • CLASS II (NON-LETHAL) Hypotrichosis Dermoid Alopecia/Dyserythropoiesis Color Dilutor

G. Description of Defects

• CLASS I (LETHAL) Snorter Dwarfism – Symptoms: Undersized, short-legged, short-bodied animal, usually potbellied with noisy breathing. Several different types include a broad-headed, bulging forehead and a long- and mature-headed kind. X-ray of 10-dayold dwarfs may show abnormal lumbar vertebrae. Most cases are simple autosomal recessive; some forms are incomplete dominance. – Confirmation: Pathologic exam Maple Syrup Urine Disease (Neuraxial Edema) – Symptoms: Calves will be of normal size at birth. May not be able to get up or lift head. A sudden touch or loud noise may cause a vigorous extension of the legs and neck. Contraction (muscle spasms) may last one or two minutes and can be made to reappear. Simple autosomal recessive. – Confirmation: Histopath of nervous tissue or biochemical test Internal Hydrocephalus (water head) – Symptoms: Excess fluid is present in the brain which may result in a bulging forehead. Calves are usually born dead or die shortly after birth. Some cases may be environmental. Needs careful diagnosis. Simple autosomal recessive. – Confirmation: Gross pathologic exam Idiopathic Epilepsy (IE) – Symptoms: Age of onset (occurrence of the first seizure) can be variable, ranging from birth to several months of age. Occurrence and persistence of seizures may be influenced by environmental stressors such as temperature extremes (e.g., extreme cold during calving) or increased physical activity (e.g., processing at vaccination or weaning). Upon initial onset of seizure episodes, individuals will typically lie on their side with all limbs extended in a rigid state. Manual flexing of the limbs is possible, but return to the extended position occurs after release. Seizure episodes may last from several minutes to more than an hour. Autosomal recessive. – No anatomic abnormalities or histologic lesions detected. – Confirmation: AHA approved expert • CLASS II (NON-LETHAL) Hypotrichosis (hairlessness) – Symptoms: Partial to almost complete lack of hair. Affected calves are often born with very short, fine, kinky hair that may fall out, leaving bare spots or areas particularly susceptible to rubbing. The condition may vary in expression as the animal matures and is usually less noticeable in older animals. The haircoat color will sometimes appear “frosted” or “silverish.” Tail switch may be underdeveloped. Simple autosomal recessive. – Confirmation: Megatrichohyaline granule skin biopsy Dermoid (feather eyes) – Symptoms: Skin-like masses of tissue occur on the eye or eyelid. Animals may become partially or completely blind. Polygenic inheritance. – Confirmation: Clinical diagnosis with photos or biopsy

32 / 2021 Hereford Handbook

H. Lethal vs. Non-Lethal A lethal genetic abnormality is a genetic abnormality which usually results in death of the animal or production of the animal is significantly impaired causing major economic loss. Non-lethal abnormalities do not cause death, nor do they significantly affect production or commercial profitability. Nonlethals may, however, cause economic loss to seedstock producers.

I. Breeding to Avoid Abnormalities Breeders that may have a problem with a simple recessive abnormality can make use of available DNA-based diagnostic tests or implement mating systems designed to reduce the frequency of the abnormal gene in their herds and the breed. Where a DNAbased test is available, breeders can directly test animals for the presence of a specific mutation causing the disease. Animals confirmed to be carriers should be used cautiously, and serious consideration should be given to their removal from the seedstock breeding herd. However, breeders should guard against carelessly throwing away good genetics because a sire or dam is a carrier unless that animal’s good characteristics remain available in the breed from another source. In the absence of a DNA-based test, mating systems should rely on the use of bulls known not to have produced affected calves. Sons of carrier animals can be used if they have been tested free of the abnormality through a series of special test matings. Mating a bull to seven affected females, 17 carrier cows or 35 of his own daughters with no abnormal offspring provides three ways to test for the presence of a recessive gene. With specific regard to non-lethal abnormalities, each breeder must assess the potential economic impact the abnormality may have on his operation.

J. Predicted Outcome of Certain Matings Using Hypotrichosis as an Example Hypotrichosis (non-lethal) results from homozygosity of a simple autosomal recessive gene. This means that both parents must possess the hypotrichosis gene in order to produce an affected calf. Approximately 25% of the calves resulting from the mating of two carrier animals will be affected, while 50% will be normal appearing but carriers of hypotrichosis, and the remaining 25% will be normal and non-carriers. Possible matings and the predicted outcomes are shown in the table below: Matings1

The Cadillac of Cows Hearty and versatile, first generation (F1) tiger-striped calves are built to last. by Diane Meyer

s the days grow longer in South Texas, the afternoon heat climbs higher and the humidity hangs in the air like a fog. Bugs come out in full force, and wildlife seek the shelter of shade trees and ponds until the sun slips behind the horizon. Seemingly oblivious to the stifling summer heat, a few Hereford bulls, a set of Brahman cows and their tiger-striped offspring graze comfortably on Bermuda pastures. Just an hour and a half north of Houston, registered Brahman cattle are bred to Hereford bulls to develop F1 Brahman and Hereford cross replacement females at Windy Hills Ranch in Madisonville. Combined, the operation is home to 500 head of cows, bulls and heifers. Ranch manager Stephen Trichel says these calves can handle the Southeast climate changes in stride. In “really good cow country,” as Trichel describes it, temperature change is regular, with sometimes a 30-degree fluctuation from morning to afternoon. Rainfall is decent, the winters are mild, and although the climate is steady during spring, summers bring 100-degree-plus temperatures with high humidity. “The cattle can adapt and make it through year after year,” Trichel notes. “Heat tolerance in these cattle is very important,” he continues. “The cattle have to be able to handle high heat, high humidity and

stay healthy. But then again, come fall, they better be ready for some cold freezing temperatures and strong north winds that are tough on them.” Trichel has been working at this particular location for 24 years and manages the property, land, cattle, horses and hay production. He and a longtime team of three other hands do everything from working cattle to haying and planting winter crops. Trichel says breeding has always been the same — using Brahman cattle to raise F1s to keep as replacements or to sell at special female sales. “We started the Hereford-Brahman cross on this ranch because of the marketing value of the F1 tiger-stripe female. They adapt to this country so well,” he says. “One of the biggest advantages is that F1 tiger-stripe female is very versatile. You can breed her to different types of bulls for different purposes — for feeder calves and replacement females.” He adds the F1 calves all grow and gain weight consistently and wean off very well. The F1 females hold their value, and there is demand for them year-round. “The tiger-stripe cattle in this area will perform as well or outperform other breeds, mainly because of the adaptability to the

From the Land Up A powerful cross and intentional stewardship clear the way for high stocking rates and high weaning weights at Buford Ranches LLC, Hominy, Okla.

October 2020

by Diane Meyer

o signs are needed to distinguish Buford Ranches pastures from the surrounding countryside in northeastern Oklahoma’s Osage County. Native big bluestem, little bluestem, switchgrass, gamagrass and grama grass flourish in this southernmost region of the Flint Hills at the operation’s BledsoeSteakley and Dunkin divisions, due west of Hominy. Distinct as the Tallgrass Prairie grasses they graze, uniform groups of cattle gather in color-coordinated pastures of black baldies, red baldies, Hereford cows and black cows with baldy calves at side. It is a sight to behold, many neighbors and passersby have praised. “It’s your duty to treat the land well, to leave it better for the next generation,” says third-generation manager, Sam Buford. “I love the cattle, and you couldn’t work without the cattle, but I spend most of my time cleaning up the land.” The Buford crew has found the foragers best suited for this Oklahoma oasis are Hereford and Angus cross cattle. Baldy calves raised on these nutrient-dense limestone soils will weigh 15 to 20 pounds heavier than their straightbred counterparts.

“Heterosis and weed sprayer are two things that pay for themselves more than any other thing in the cattle business,” Buford says. “Through heterosis, you get a stronger, more viable calf at birth. You get a bigger calf at weaning, you get a bigger calf at yearling.” His firm belief in cultivating the domestic habitat supports the longevity of the operation’s three-pronged program of commercial cattle and registered Hereford and Angus herds.

Bedrock On a fateful day in December 1941, Buford’s relatives signed the papers for their first ranch the day of the Pearl Harbor bombing. For the first couple decades, the Dunkin Ranch — as it was called then — ran straightbred Hereford cattle until a neighbor’s Angus bull got into a heifer pen. Surely, the family thought, the outcome was going to be a disaster. “At that point, we realized what crossbreeding could do for our cow-calf operation,” Buford shares. “…The calves ended up continued on page 24...

The Versatile Sire

First generation crosses with Hereford genetics create unrivaled feeder calves and replacement females. by Diane Meyer

t’s no secret crossbreeding results in more efficiency, longevity and maternal ability. In first generation (F1) crosses, cattle receive the biggest advantages from heterosis. In any environment, when it comes to developing quality feeder calves and a replacement herd, Hereford sires lead the way in adding value to various crossbreeding programs. Operations across the country have used the versatile Hereford sire to make improvements in their commercial herds.

Red ramp up In northwestern North Dakota, 475 mother cows thrive at Enge Farm and Ranch in Stanley. Dylan Enger, his brother, Carson, and their uncle, Jim Enge, manage a commercial cow-calf operation of primarily Red Angus females and a small registered Red Angus herd. Their commercial cow herd is bred to Hereford sires with exceptional maternal and growth traits. The goal of this cross is to build a quality replacement herd. At Enge Farm and Ranch, red baldies adapt well to North Dakota's harsh winters and dry summers. "We've been working to make the cows work for us, not us work for them," Dylan Enger says.

“We see higher gains in the steers and in the females. The maternal quality, udder structure and docility of the F1s far surpasses the straight reds in the long run,” Dylan Enger says. “We’re trying to produce quality cattle, and with the minimum inputs we have, the cattle work for us and do a really nice job.” The Enge operation switched to an all-red herd to differentiate from many neighboring operations developing all-black cow herds. At the time, Enger says their calves were not getting any extra kick, and F1 baldies sounded like an ideal fit to improve their calf crop. Soon, the operation began sourcing Hereford bulls from a handful of different states and the improvements were instant. “Those calves hit the ground running,” Enger says. “We started retaining some females, developing them and breeding them back to straight-red bulls. From there, the cows took off like nothing and they were in high demand.” The third-generation cattleman notes that true F1 baldies with the extra kick of heterosis have been increasing in popularity. While his initial plan was to breed red baldy females and sell them as breds in the fall, the heifers turned out so well that he kept them. Recently, he discovered the American Hereford Association and Red Angus Association of America’s joint Premium Red Baldy continued on page 18...

The Best in History

Hereford-sired calves at Voigt Ranch, Beulah, N.D., add pounds, docility and fertility.

February 2021

by Diane Meyer

t is a classic “Come Home to Hereford” tale if there ever was one. In west-central North Dakota, Don Voigt bought some land, and in 1971, Voigt Ranch came to life. Back then, Hereford cattle were the natural choice to stock the ranch. Casey Voigt, who inherited his dad’s love for raising cattle, took over the ranch in 1996. He kept a small herd of baldy cows, but eventually switched to an Angus-based cow herd. About 12 years ago, Casey decided he needed to add more vigor to his calves. “I wanted to go for heterosis, so Herefords were a natural choice for crossbreeding because of my father’s upbringing with the Hereford genetics,” Voigt shares.
