Gemstone Cattle Hereford & Angus Bull and Female Sale 2nd Annual

t is our pleasure to welcome you to our 2nd Annual Gemstone Cattle Co Bull and Female sale. We would like to thank everyone that supported our sales in the past and look forward to continuing to work with you into the future. We are very excited to have 98 Ranch (Ross Macdonald & Christine Peters) joining our sale. Our philosophies are the same; the cows work for us not us for them. The last three years in the cattle business have been a lot of fun and we have seen prices climb to levels we never thought possible. This year is looking to be a little tougher with the major down turn in the economy and cattle prices. As producers we have very little control of the cattle market. We can however have some influence in reducing our cost to raise a pound of beef. As a seed stock producer our goal is to raise cattle that can thrive on forages and low inputs to help increase your bottom line. Our focus has been to build a solid cow herd. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the right type of cows everything else will fall into placeâ&#x20AC;?. To us that means they are cows that breed back year after year, calve on their own, stay structurally sound and maintain their body condition on a forage based diet. Cattle that can perform on grass and minimal inputs will excel when they or their progeny get to the feedlot. The same cannot be said about cattle that need to be pampered on a high energy diet to look good. Weather permitting the bulls will be out grazing till sale time or will be on free choice hay and a protein pellet. After the sale the bulls will be brought back to the ranch and wintered at no additional cost. These bulls sell in their working cloths. The bulls will be delivered in spring semen tested given both shots of fusigaurd and ready to go to work. We stand behind our cattle 100% and there is not a bull in the sale we would not use on our own cows. The heifers are again the top cut of our commercial bred heifers. All Gemstone heifers are bred for 35 days and are on a full herd health program. As always the heifers will graze until sale time weather permitting. This year we are also pleased to have a select group of heifers from Nolan Bear and Spur Ranching. Please see the heifer section of the catalog to see the breeding details of the heifers. If you have any questions about the cattle please feel free to call anytime or better yet stop in for coffee and come see the cattle prior to the sale.

Cow/calf/yearling operation in southern Saskatchewan Primarily native rangeland Cows calve on grass in late May & June Selection applied with short breeding season Calving difficulty is not tolerated Calves on the cow for 9-10 months grazing Cattle are expected to thrive under low input,extended grazing season, forage based selection The majority of our commercial and registered cattle have been purchased from Gemstone Cattle Co. over the last 8 years. The genetics that Gemstone Cattle Co. have selected for, work very well in our low-input management system. We have taken the time to make sure they work for us and are confident that these cattle will work for you. Photo Credit: Lunde Photograpghy

EPDs Used:

CE: Calving Ease EPDs are calculated using birth weight and calving ease score information. Calving ease EPDs represent the ease with which progeny of an animal are born to first calf heifers. The EPD is expressed as a percent probability, with a higher value representing calves with a higher probability of being born unassisted. BW: Birth weight is an indicator of calving ease. Higher birth weight EPDs usually indicate more calving difficulty. WW: The weaning EPD reflects progeny growth differences up to 205 days of age. YW: The yearling EPD reflects progeny growth differences through to 365 days of age. MM: The milk EPD indicates the ability of a sire’s daughters to provide their calves with an environment that encourages growth from

Leptin, PMCH, IGF2, CRH4: Leptin : Having a TT genotype animal allows for an increased rate of fat accumulation compared to a CC animal. Other benefits include: • Increased weaning weight • Increased milk production • Increased 12th rib backfat • Higher quality grade / marbling score • Lower yield grade • Increased cow productive life PMCH: Having an AA genotype animal allows for increased fat deposition compared to a TT animal. Other benefits include: • Increased tenderness • Increased marbling fat • Increased 12th rib backfat

birth to weaning, through mothering ability and milk production. This EPD is expressed in the expected difference in pounds of calf at weaning. TM: Also known as Milk + Growth, this EPD combines the milk EPD plus 1/2 the weaning weight EPD. It is expressed in pounds of calf weaned at 205-days and combines the genetics for pre- weaning growth and the influence of the maternal environment on the weaning weight of the daughter’s progeny. RFI: RFI is a measure of feed efficiency, and is defined as the difference between an animal’s actual feed intake and its expected feed intake based on its size and growth. The EPD is expressed as an RFI score, with a larger values equating to greater efficiency. Angus RFI (raw): Raw RFI data is like a golf score, a lower number is better. IGF2: Having a CC genotype animal results in increased lean growth compared to a TT animal. Other benefits include: • Larger ribeye CRH4: Having a GG genotype animal results in increased weights compared to a CC animal. Other benefits include: • Increased HCW • Increased REA How it works: We test each individual animal and determine their genotype. Each test identifies a gene (Leptin, PMCH, CRH, IGF2), produces a genotype (example TT), and provides you the information necessary to make informed decisions that will lead to improved efficiency.
