Please join us in celebrating our 10th annual sale!

From our Families to Yours...Welcome to our 10th Annual Sale! Once again, it is an honor and pleasure to welcome you to our 10th Annual Genetic Balance Sale. Please come for a fun filled morning and afternoon complete with coffee and donuts along with Vicki and Wendy’s famous lunch. The sale will be held at my farm in Hinckley, MN starting at 12:00 noon. In addition to a well rounded group of yearling bulls, this year’s offering has a powerful group of fall bulls ready to cover a larger group of cows. We are also including several of our two year old herd bulls. This group was developed together making it competitive for the younger bulls to get their ration. I am happy with their gains and the hair coat that they put on to handle the cold. These bulls have not been pampered, have faced the elements and are ready to work. Three feet of snow and 30 below has not slowed them down. By sale time, the yearlings will weigh up at 1200-1500 lbs and the fall bulls will be pushing 1800. We are also very proud of this young set of phenomenal Simmental and Sim-Angus cows. Most of the offering are first or second calf heifers who are doing an excellent job raising their winter born calves. Buy these cows with confidence, take them home, watch their fancy heifer calf or stout bull calf grow and breed them to the sire of your choice. My breeding plan is to have one tire in the passing (performance) lane and one tire in the driving lane. My cows are well uddered, stand on a good foot and are structurally correct. Any customer who buys one of my cows has the option to double down on performance or breed them angus or show and the calves will perform. You the buyer have the opportunity to market them three different ways. Personally, I like to wean off heavy calves at $2.00 per pound. End of my side of the discussion. “That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.” If you need to leave your cattle at the farm for a few days, don’t hesitate to ask. Just like we have done in the past, Brant Farms will be accommodating. We appreciate your interest in our cattle and our breeding philosophy, are pleased to hear they are working in your programs, and thank you for your support. A BIG SHOUT OUT goes to John Boy and the Jet. Thank you Dustin for staying on top of the genetic scene and to Scotty who can do the windmill and generate his own electricity while chasing cows. As always, Julie is a great help keeping records straight and getting her hands dirty whenever asked. A special thank you to my wife, children and grandkids for putting up with me while growing this farm. I hope there is a young farmer in this mix. I urge interested buyers to make plans to view the sale cattle on Friday or stop by the farm any time prior to Wednesday. Visitors are always welcome. If you have any questions regarding the cattle on this sale, contact myself, John Von Rueden, one of the sale consultants or our Sale Manager, Val Eberspacher. Sincerely, Ron & Vicki Brant 612-390-3836 Dear Friends and Fellow Cattlemen: Welcome to the 10th Annual Brant Farms Genetic Balance Sale. This past year has definitely been interesting. We have seen grain prices fall and feeder and fat prices rise to record highs. I truly believe the cow/calf producer is in the driver’s seat for the next several years, due to the fact the nation’s cow herd cannot be rebuilt over night. There has never been a better time to put quality genetics to work in your herd. Invest in quality genetics and reap the rewards when you haul your calves to town. We have developed our bulls on a high roughage diet and give them plenty of room to exercise. The bulls have been semen tested and ultra sounded to help you make the best choice for your program. These bulls are ready to go to work for their new owners. Our female offering this year is very deep. Black or red, there are plenty of choices. These young cows and heifers are coming right from the heart of our herd. The calves standing beside these cows represent some of the best AI sires in the industry. We believe firmly in functional cows that raise quality calves, breed back and convert feed efficiently. I would like to thank the crew at the farm. I would like to thank Ron and Vicki for the great Brant Farms will give away opportunity they have given me. THREE CALF FEEDERS at I look forward to seeing everyone sale day. Don’t hesitate to contact Ron or myself with any questions. the end of the sale. Lot numbers Sincerely, will be pulled out and the buyer John Von Rueden 612-490-1649 of that lot will win a calf feeder. You must be present For more information about online bidding, call Brad Fahrmeier at 816-392-9241 or Amanda Eberspacher at 507-828-7089. View/bid live on the internet! at sale to win.

• These three bulls will sire calves that will be heavy weights at weaning time. • They are ET sons out of Top Fuel and a Galvanizer dam, P4435. • These three bulls have averaged 100 lbs of weight gain per month through their entire life without being fed hard. Just Momma, no creep and their bull ration. • At thirteen months, they weighed in at 1410, 1420 and 1450. • Top Fuel sons have always finished at the top of our bull pen. Top Fuel calves in the steer lot do the same thing. They come in weaning heavy and go out on top. • Use these three bulls on mature cows and watch their calves mash the scale down when you send them to market. • I can’t say enough good things about their sire. Docile, easy keeping with performance galore. • Hawkeye Breeders collected freezable semen on A9KS at just over 12 months of age. (Brant Farms is retaining the entire collection of 200 straws of semen for in herd use only.)

Brant Farms 10th Annual Genetic Balance Sale 2014 Bull Buyer’s Quick Guide to ASA EPDs & $ Indexes

Definitions of Terms

Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat. Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight. Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers. Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight. Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in firstcalving daughters. Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. Marbling (MRB): Marbling score. Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth. Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye. Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a steak. Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years of age. Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight. Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight. Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score.

Explanation of How to Utilize API and TI Indexes First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described to the left, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed.
