In the end, she was matriarch of an empire carved from south Louisiana prairies, pastures and marshlands. While much of the glory days are gone with the wind, she took her share and resurrected a foundation Charolais program that produced a championship line –– a role play not accustomed to having a female at its head. She was tough, she was generous and she was a good friend to many.

VIEWPOINT
CHAROLAIS Competition
Agriculture may be the best illustration
A
merican agriculture may be the best illustration for the importance of competition in the world. From a very early age, farm and ranch kids learn to compete. We compete in sports. We compete in academics and we compete socially. The spirit of competition teaches that learning to lose is arguably more important than winning. Competition in the beef business takes on an entirely different meaning. Demand is the bedrock for competition and is our industry’s acknowledgement of inherent value. Competition for feeder calves is determined weekly by the need for numbers to meet the future supply chain needs. As the commodity beef cattle business cycle ebbs and flows, so does competition and that’s the way it’s been since we began to market beef. In the mid ‘80s, the demand for beef began to decline. As
from competing proteins. Thankfully, all industry stakeholders accepted the dreadful data presented in the Strategic Alliances Field Study and the process of using science and technology to make improvements began to take shape. Today, beef producers have an incredibly sophisticated suite of tools at their disposal to produce healthier, more consistent and overall better cattle. From artificial insemination and embryo transfer to genomic testing and ultrasound, seedstock producers create competition for their cattle by supplying commercial cow-calf producers with accurate information and a genetically improved animal with inordinately greater predictability. Commercial cow-calf producers have invested in adding value and more competition for their calves by simply improving best
More than three decades later the competition for Charolais and Charolais-influenced genetics is even more fierce. Advancing technology provide decades of genetic trends that focus on all traits of economic importance, from calving ease to end product merit. demand declined, so did the competition for live cattle needed to move through the supply chain. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) took the “bull by the horns” and funded the Strategic Alliances Field Study (SAFS), a study that ultimately became our road map to get better at the job of raising beef. The study, in collaboration with Colorado State University and Oklahoma State University, began a collaboration to more precisely determine value from gate to plate. On the very first page of the executive summary, the report stated, “Three projects were conducted and coordinated: The National Beef Tenderness Study, the National Beef Market Basket Study and the National Beef Quality Audit. Results of these studies indicated that the beef industry suffers from numerous costs of non-conformance and these costs handicap the beef industry from competing more effectively at the retail counter with pork and poultry.” The study further revealed, “The NBQA determined that nonconformities cost the beef industry about $280 per head for every fed steer and heifer slaughtered in the United States. This $7.2 billion loss from non-conformities represents the beef industry’s primary competitive disadvantage factor.” If we adjust those numbers for current inflation and had we made no change, the losses rise to more than $500 per head and total more than $13 billion a year. But the most chilling loss then and now was the competition for our product in the meat case
practices and documenting health and vaccinations and paying attention to better nutrition and body condition. Producers can go a step further to create competition by enrolling and documenting process verified programs (PVPs) like age and source (ASV), non-hormone treated cattle (NHTC), verified natural (VNB), and global animal partnership (GAP). Process verified programs add input costs but create the opportunity to access a different marketing stream that offer premiums for qualifying. In the absence of science and technology available today, the beef industry began to address many of the phenotypic issues discussed in the SAFS by infusing European (Continental) genetics into mainstream English genetics that populated most American pastures. Charolais genetics had already begun to influence the American beef supply, but the SAFS shined an even brighter light on the need to accelerate change and stop the declining demand for beef. More than three decades later the competition for Charolais and Charolais-influenced genetics is even more fierce. Advancing technology provide decades of genetic trends that focus on all traits of economic importance, from calving ease to end product merit. Cattle feeders recognize the value of competition and most every feedlot throughout the country knows that Charolais genetics are easily marketable and highly valued by packers. Demand creates competition. Charolais genetics provide both.

AICA DNA Requirements
AI Sires used “out of herd” and all Donor Dams must be DNA tested before calves can be registered. AICA recommends collecting DNA samples during the donor’s initial flush. Check the animal’s record to make sure the DNA work has been done before submitting registration papers. DNA kits are specific to the animal being tested. Contact Marilou Wegner to request a kit. AICA rules require signatures on bulls and dams you do not own. Signatures can be submitted online, fax, mail or e-mail. Export Your Data for Sale Catalogs Under the “tools” tab, you will find a new “Data Export” button. This data export gives you the flexibility to export data on animals in your herd and use those data files in your own management packages. You can download and save the files directly to your computer in a CSV (can be opened in Excel) format. There are many options within this feature including selecting the type of animal to export and specific data. Year letter for 2021 is J.

ONLINE TIPS
When using a non-Charolais parent, follow the example given on the entry screen. For a non-Charolais female type FNF-XXXX, for a non-Charolais male type FNM-XXXX. You may also use breed codes to indicate the breed of the non-Charolais animal but be sure to use 4 digits (example: FNM-ANAN). We can add the pedigree of your other breed animal but need a copy of the pedigree 1st. The fee to add a pedigree is $20.

CPI BOARD
Record your 2021 born calves using AICA’s online system. Add the data as the calves are born; continue to update the records as you add weaning and yearling data. Register the calves at any time by adding their name. Transfers cannot be done on-line if the paper has already been issued. The original paper must be returned to AICA. Animals registered on-line can be held in the system for transfer or print later. Many members find it helpful to hold all the newly registered animals in the system. No need to chase papers around.

AIJCA PHILANTHROPIC PROJECTS HUCK’S MILITARY CARE PACKAGE PROJECT Huck is the 10-year-old son of Caleb and Briana Plyler of Spring Hill, AR. Huck started what is known as “Huck’s Military Care Package Project” in 2016. He started the project because of what the military does for our country, and in Huck’s words, “We do this because they help us, so we help them.” Huck’s project is comprised of putting together care packages for members of the Military that are currently deployed. His care packages include items such as lip balm, sunscreen, personal hygiene products socks and more. The AIJCA has decided to adopt Huck’s Military Care Package project as this year’s philanthropic project. We have created an Amazon Smile link for everyone to browse through and purchase items for donation. These items will be shipped directly to the Plyler family in Arkansas, and we encourage everyone to give a look at the list of items we have put together. Link found on the Junior National page of www.CharolaisUSA. com. For monetary donations - Please make checks out to Huck Plyler -Huck’s Military Care Package Project –please send to Briana Plyler - Attn: Huck’s Military Care Package Project. 1748 Hempstead 7, Hope, AR 71801 (If you would like a donation receipt, please provide a stamped addressed envelope.) If you have a loved one that is deployed, we would love to send them a care package. Please send their address to Huck on his Facebook page Huck’s Military Care Package Project.

Devon Benes, Treasurer
VIEWPOINT
JUNIOR
Build a Better Breed You have what it takes
H
ey everyone, my name is Devon Benes. I am currently serving as your AIJCA Treasurer and Area 2 representative, representing North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska. I am the son of Mitch and Andrea Benes. I grew up in small town Valparaiso, Nebraska but currently travel from Valparaiso to Norfolk, Nebraska where I attend college at Northeast Community College. I am currently majoring in Graphic Design. When at school I work at Gateway Genetics in Pierce, Nebraska helping them with their sale cattle and show cattle. When I am not at school, I spend most of my time working on the family farm with my father. I also have gotten the opportunity to help get a new family started into showing cattle so I spend a lot of my time helping them when I can. I am a fifth generation Charolais breeder. My family has been running Charolais cattle in our herd for about 55 years now. The Charolais breed alone has made a huge impact on my family’s seedstock program. Now
people you get to spend most of your time with are some of the most inspirational and inviting people you will ever work with. The Charolais board has built so many connections for me over the past year and a half, many of those I am certain I will use later in my life. If I could be on the AIJCA board for my whole life I would, but I can’t. The board is all about the cycle. One board member retires and a new one gets to come on. That is the best thing about the board. It is an opportunity that any youth can be a part of. Me being on the board my whole life wouldn’t do the Charolais youth any good. Yes, the board is there to help run National Charolais events and be a leader for the youth, but it’s also there to build you up as an individual. The more people that get to be a part of it the better our breed will develop. If you or someone you know has the opportunity to apply to be on the Charolais board, I highly recommend you fill that form out and get it sent in the moment your area comes up for re-election.

“...do I really have what it takes to be a leader for the youth around me? ...then I realized it is not always what you are right now, but what you are willing to become.” the people in the breed... they are a bonus that comes with the package. The people in the Charolais breed are some of the most hardworking, socially driven people I have ever been around. Whether you go to a Charolais event or you are just talking to a breeder on the phone, their connection feels so inviting and never makes you feel like you are out of place. When I first thought about applying to be on the AIJCA board, I thought to myself – do I really have what it takes to be a leader for the youth around me? I wondered if I had enough leadership in me to stand in front of hundreds of people at Junior National, but then I realized it is not always what you are right now, but what you are willing to become. The Charolais board is one of the best things I have done in the past two years. The board has taught me many lessons, one of those being how to become a strong leader for the youth around me. I wouldn’t give up being on the Charolais board for anything in the world right now, because the people you meet, the 32
A P R I L 2021
If you are doubting yourself about if you will be good enough to be on the board, don’t. EVERYONE that is a part of the Charolais breed has what it takes to be on the board, you just might not know it. The Junior Board also comes with its bonuses. Several times throughout the year we get to travel to have our meetings. Most meetings are held in Kansas City at the headquarters, but sometimes Kaitlyn Chism surprises us with a bit of a road trip. For example, we just had the opportunity to fly out to Perry, Georgia where we got a tour of the fairgrounds where Junior National will be held this year and let me tell you it is amazing! If you have any questions about the AIJCA board, feel free to look my information up in the Charolais Journal and give me a call or just find me at Junior National. I would love to sit and talk with you. I personally can’t wait to see everyone that is attending Junior National this year. I hope everyone has a safe trip and I will see you all in Perry, Georgia!

Cydectin® (moxidectin) Pour-On: Let the good guys roll.
The industry's #1 selling pour-on brand contains the active ingredient moxidectin, which controls 33 parasite species and stages while remaining dung beetle friendly.2 In a study, manure from cattle treated with Cydectin showed no visible difference in the
number of dung pats destroyed or buried compared to dung pats from untreated cattle.1 Dung beetle adults and larvae play a vital
role in pasture manure management, recycling cattle dung, improving soil health and keeping other cattle parasites in check. Visit your retailer or ElancoLivestock.com to learn more.

Building a LEGACY. T
he Charolais breed has a 51 year history of building the breed’s future. Development of the AIJCF began in 1970 when breed leaders met and formulated the initial plans to provide leadership and scholarship opportunities for Charolais youth. These efforts lead to the AIJCF’s first leadership and scholarship programs being introduced at the 1973 National Junior Leadership Conference. Through the early 1980’s, AIJCF programs continued to expand with the support of Charolais breeders nationwide. 1985 was a benchmark year for AIJCF when major contributions allowed for the program’s first endowed scholarships. Today, eight endowed scholarship funds form the foundation for the program.
Competition
In 2020, AIJCF awarded 35 youth from 17 states more than $40,000 in scholarships. An additional $4,250 is awarded to 9 exhibitors at the Junior National Show and Leadership Conference. Selection criteria includes academic and leadership excellence. The Raymond Hicks Fund provides support for the Junior National Leadership Conference.
Become part of the breed’s legacy!
• Your tax-deductible minimum donation of $20,000 to the American-International Junior Charolais Foundation will allow you to name a scholarship which will become endowed after a period of one year. • A minimum donation of $1,000 to the AmericanInternational Junior Charolais Foundation will allow the donor to name a scholarship to be awarded at the next Junior National. • Champion Show Scholarship Sponsorships Available! Please inquire.
Scholarships
• Donations of any size are encouraged at all times.
