VIEWPOINT

CHAROLAIS 2020 Vision

Communicate a positive message.

t may be said that 2020 could be a perfect metaphor for forward looking and measuring progress in the rearview mirror! As the calendar rolls over to a new year, nearly everyone finds themselves doing a bit of reflection. This past year was significant for Charolais. Charolais and Char-cross steers were selected as grand champions in several major shows. The success of the restructured CharAdvantage program was indicative of the value of Charolais and Charolais-cross calves sired by registered Charolais bulls. Registered seedstock sales were steady throughout the year. Demand for Charolais and Char-cross feeder calves remained strong across the country. What does all this “winning” mean? Arguably, it can be said those cattle that captured the judge’s eye during the bright

Charolais seedstock producers have been willing to address difficult production issues in their operations as well as policy decisions in the board room to send positive industry signals that the breed is not only relevant, but engaged and important to beef production. The goal of the Listening & Learning Sessions, hosted by AICA for the past three years, has been to gain input from thought leaders that represent every industry sector and geographic location. The discussions have been frank, honest and valuable to those in attendance and provide insight into various industry demands that don’t always align with conventional cow-calf production. More than three-quarters of a century after the official organization of a Charolais breed association, AICA members are more engaged than

“Charolais seedstock producers have been willing to address difficult production issues in their operations as well as policy decisions in the board room...” lights of a show parallel the phenotypic acceptance of Charolais in the country. The same can’t be said for all breeds. In fact, and again, arguably, few breeds can make a similar statement. Since the beginning of the performance movement in registered seedstock production, the more likely relationship between performance and the show ring has been adversarial. Charolais is in a unique position. This past year, 80% of the U.S. fed cattle marketed weekly were sold on a grid formula. Grid formulas are objective and designed to reward whomever owned the cattle at processing for the actual value of the carcass. For many, it’s intimidating. For those that know how their genetics perform, it’s the easiest risk management in the business. The fact that Charolais and Char-cross feeder cattle are always in demand and experience wide industry acceptance year in and year out is no accident. Feedyards across America would not be populated by smokies and buckskins if the cattle didn’t perform on the rail. This breed isn’t a trend. More than 85 years after the first Charolais crossed the border from Mexico, beef producers have used the breed to add pounds, muscle, red meat yield and genetically selected for traits that fit an evolving production system. Unlike some breeds, Charolais is geographically suited for anywhere in the U.S. No breed is perfect. Perfection is a continual pursuit by those seedstock suppliers willing to make difficult selection decisions in their own operations, all intended toward genetic improvement.

ever before in the business of beef production. Value-based marketing has fostered greater industry transparency and confirms genetic performance in a complex beef production system. Grid performance is the retained owner or cattle feeder’s report card. The same can be said for the seedstock supplier. When the show ring shines a bright light on the animal whose phenotype symbolizes the same relevance, that breed will continue to experience industry demand across all production sectors. Our annual livestock show kick-off begins with the legendary National Western Stock Show in Denver. Each year, we are reminded of the hundreds of thousands of urbanites that pay to see how we do business. It’s obvious the visitors will go away not knowing much more about how food gets to their table. However, they will have seen faces of men, women and youth actively engaged in caring for animals and connecting the reality that when they shop, there are real people that produce the meat protein they choose for their families. From January to April, literally tens of thousands of animals will be on display in national livestock shows as well as spring junior livestock events. It’s almost impossible to quantify the importance of our ability as beef producers to communicate a positive message to consumers. On behalf of all of us at AICA, we wish you and your families a prosperous new year!

CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

AICA’s on-line system can answer many questions.

Log in with your breeder number and password: Get a copy of a certificate by holding your cursor on the “My Reports” tab and click into “Copy Certificate.” This is a quick way to get a copy of a paper. Duplicates of the original paper must be requested in writing and printed at the office. Your most current herd EPDs are located under the “My Reports” tab, click into “Herd EPD Report”. This report can be sorted in many ways, giving you the most updated information. Also under “My Reports” are Ultrasound Barn Sheets. These can be generated as a calving group or individual animals. Go to Ultrasound Barn Sheet by year for the whole calving year group or use the “Custom” report for just a few. Wondering how many signatures you have on specific AI sires? Go to “My Account” and choose AI Sire Signatures. Here you may give signatures on bulls you own or have signatures on. You may also view the list of bull signatures on file in your breeder number. Donor cow signatures are listed here also. Keep track of your account by using the “My Account” tab. Click into “My Billing” and see the fees charged to your account. Your current balance is listed in the upper right-hand corner of the page. AICA does not have on-line bill pay. The most up-to-date lab information on registered animals can be found using the “search” tool from the website home page. Search the animal by using the registration number, then click the animal line. Click the “LAB Results” tab to see all the lab results for that animal. You’ll find a description of all lab codes there also. 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.

Controlling Lice In Cattle Can Be CHALLENGING

Long nosed cattle lou

By Heather Smith Thomas

r. Bill Lias (Interstate Vet Clinic, Brandon, SD) says lice numbers generally explode in winter. “When it’s warm, lice don’t want to be on the warm back of a cow with sunshine on it. They thrive in colder weather. There are two main types of lice: sucking lice and biting lice. The latter feed on dander and debris on the skin surface instead of sucking blood,” says Lias. Dr. Dave Barz, Northwest Veterinary and Supply, Parkston, South Dakota says there are 3 species of sucking lice and one species of biting/chewing lice. “There are also tail lice that can cause cattle to lose their switch,” he says. “There’s some argument within the industry regarding how much economic loss or inefficiencies the biting lice actually cause,” Barz says. They don’t make the animal anemic (from blood loss) or cause weight loss directly, but do make cattle miserable and itchy—sometimes to the point of rubbing out so much hair they suffer more cold stress. “You can really see their damage. We don’t see internal parasites, but

we can see lice and the damage they do. This doesn’t look good for our industry because it looks like we don’t take care of our livestock. Someone might notice they look uncomfortable and think we are not treating them properly,” he says. Years ago, cattle were often treated with organophosphate pour-on products for lice and grubs, which worked well, but had some side effects and were hazardous to humans. “When the avermectins first came out, all we had was injectable products, and they don’t kill biting lice. Those years were some of the worst lice infestations I’d ever seen,” says Barz. Even though producers treated their cattle, there was no effect on the biting lice. “The avermectin products, especially the injectable forms, will not be as effective against biting/chewing lice because they don’t take a blood meal,” says Lais. “The pour-ons are considered effective against both kinds, but there seems to be some lice resistance to these products today; they may not be as effective as they once were. In this region, many producers like to use pourons in the avermectin class (ivermectins, cydecton, dexomax, etc.) because they want to kill internal parasites as well. For convenience it’s nice to be able to use just one product and feel

Directors By Area

Hi Charolais Juniors! My name is Caitlin Jedlicka and I am currently serving as Secretary for the AIJCA Junior Board, as well as your Area 6 Director. I am 19 years old, and from a small town in Southern Missouri called Koshkonong. My family runs a purebred Charolais operation as well as a commercial herd. I am currently a sophomore at Missouri State University studying Agriculture Communications. I hope to pursue a career as a livestock photographer or journalist for an agriculture publication. This is my third year on the Junior Board, and I am beyond blessed to continue to serve this organization. I have been involved in the Charolais breed since I was a little kid. I competed in my first Junior National contest at the 2006 Junior National in Springfield, Missouri. Having been in the breed since I was a young

to haul you to a show. Thank them for the late nights and the early mornings spent helping you get your cattle ready for the next show. Thank them for pushing you to follow your passion for the cattle industry, that helped you find your home in the Charolais breed. Most importantly, thank them for supporting you in all your adventures and endeavors in life. Thank your friends. Thank them for being fierce competitors in the ring, then being the first to congratulate you once you step out of the ring. Thank them for being your teammates through the years for cook-off and fitting contests. Thank them for supporting you, even when you live multiple states away from each other. And finally, thank your mentors. Thank the people you looked up to, the people that you strived to be like. Those

“In my time as a junior member, I have gained a family that I didn’t expect to have. A family that reaches from coast to coast.” kid, I was able to see the opportunities that would be available to me through the association. I spent my childhood wondering around shows and watching all the kids in the blue jackets lead the association. Board members like Kaitlyn Chism, Megan Fink, and Matt Loggains, made me think about what I wanted to gain from being a part in the association. From a young age, I knew that I wanted to wear the blue jacket one day, I knew I wanted to help give back to the association that had given me so much. I knew that I would do anything and everything to get on the Junior Board, and when I was finally old enough to run, I was so excited. Getting a position on the Board had been a dream turned into a reality. Although, it would not have been possible without the support of so many people. As the holidays come to an end, and the new year begins take time to thank those who supported you along the way. Thank your parents. Thank them for driving more miles than you can count, through multiple states 24 

are the ones who helped ignite a fire in you to be more and strive for more. Your mentors helped shape you into the person you are today along with your parents. Thank them for showing you tough love when it was needed and pushing you to be more. In my time as a junior member, I have gained a family that I didn’t expect to have. A family that reaches from coast to coast. I have yet to find a breed or association with as much of a family atmosphere as the Charolais association has. So, I challenge you this new year to follow your passions. Find your home. Find your family. And work your hardest to achieve every dream you have. Whether it is to wear the blue jacket, win the speech contest, or make the cut in showmanship. No dream is too big or too small to be accomplished when you set your mind to it. I look forward to seeing where the Charolais breed takes each of you this year.

Selling One-Half Interest in M&M Ms Watt 5054 Pld ET! This outcross donor is like one of the fresh, young, sexy Country Western female singing stars ready to EXPLODE onto the stage! Chris Polzin told me that when this amazing female stepped out from behind the trees on his first visit to Bryan McKay’s herd, he was awestruck! He continued to say that this unique female reminded him SO MUCH of the first time he laid eyes on Thomas Ms Impressive 0641!!! This powerful female is simply amazing in terms of being a big-bodied, deep-ribbed individual that still maintains a lady-like shoulder with plenty of front-end extension. Chris feels that she is a cornerstone donor for years to come and looks forward to sharing her revenue potential with progressive partners. She is a moderate, belly dragging breed changer that will be famous! Just gaze on the pictures of two of her daughters, they are the best the McKays produced selling for up to $20,000. Ms Watt 5054 recently weaned a fall calf “Rhinestone Jewel” that is ready to take the stage too! M&M Ms Watt 5054 Pld ET averaged 10 embryos on her first two IVF aspirations at Polzin Embryo Center.

Selling Choice of the Hebbert Charolais Bred Cows & Heifers

Selling choice of the spring calving bred cows (350 head) bred to several elite pedigreed herd sires including LT-HC Blue Rock 0368 (a maternal brother to LT Rushmore 8060, sired by LT Bluegrass 4017), HC Blue Rock 2403 & HC Rim Rock 4247 (both sons of Blue Rock 0368), WR Top Hand C631 (LT Ledger son) and HC Lone Ranger 4366 (LT Long Distance 9001 son).

Selling choice of the spring calving bred heifers (115 head). These heifers are bred to several calving ease bloodline sires, mostly LT Long Distance, LT Rushmore, HCR Equity and WCR Kingsbury genetics.

What makes this selection even more inviting is that you can wait until these females are all calved out with calves at side, so you get a pair. You can see how they milk, what the sex of the calf is, you can select an AI sired calf or from one of their impressive herd sire battery walking the pastures. The only stipulation is that you come pick your choice before turn out time to grass right about May 1, 2020. There is a great opportunity waiting for you at Hebbert Charolais.

The legacy of the Hebbert Charolais family is long and dependable. They only allow this “Choice of the Herd” once a year during the National Western Stock Show and it is always one of the sale highlights. The herd and the ranch are now under the capable hands of Lacy & Matt Hebbert to carry on the functional, sound cow herd that Mose and Dave Hebbert built. You will be impressed with the quality of these females and you know they are good cattle or you wouldn’t see the same purebred breeders bidding on and buying these two choices each and every year. In 2018 the bred cow choice sold for $7,000 and the bred heifer for $10,000! Last year saw the bred cow choice bring $9,000 and the bred heifer choice $9,250!

Rambur Charolais has long been noted in the breed for the “cow power” they have developed for over 30 some odd years. Howard does it just as it was meant to be, only the good ones stay in the herd. The RC program has always been a true performance herd, where the environment and the scale measures those that work and those that don’t. The don’t are gone, they rigorously cull this herd to only leave the trouble-free cattle that will work without problems. This choice of the herd will consist from within two replacement heifer groups. One selection will be allowed from the top 60 bred heifers and the other from 100 open yearling heifers ready to breed this spring. The last two times that this selection was consigned to this Denver sale the bred heifer pick sold for $8,500 and $9,000, so be prepared. The open heifer choice sold for $4,250 and $4,500, where else can you select the best open heifer at that price point! These heifer groups were sorted down from the 300 head plus Rambur cow herd. Choice of the 60-spring calving bred heifers.

Choice from 100 spring born 2019 open heifers.

There are many popular and well known Charolais pedigrees throughout the breed that have been influenced by the RC genetics including RC Budsmydad 225, RC Ms Bud 418 Polled, RC Sirloin 6111 Polled, RC Montana 644 and RC Denver 6026. Take advantage of this opportunity from Rambur Charolais.

Selling Choice of the Cobb Bred Heifers! If you want a real treat, buy this pick of the herd and go to the beautiful Cobb Ranch and their “closed herd” of outstanding maternal power females. Having been there once with Dick Fanning from Thousand Oaks Charolais to select his pick of the herd, you will really enjoy the cattle, the owners and the breathtaking Montana ranch country! The Cobbs only offer this choice of their bred heifers once a year for the Denver Sale. For over 50 years this herd has remained a “closed one-iron brand” herd and developed from within. This year they will allow you the opportunity to select from their fall 2017 bred heifers and their spring 2018 bred heifers, all due to calve in the spring 2020. There is over 100 head from which to select. These heifers are all due to calve in February and March, but you may wait until they are all calved out, so you will get to pick from PAIRS, another big benefit to this selection! But this pick must be accomplished by May 15th before they move them out to breed again. You will be over the moon with owning one of these heifers.

With an awesome first time offering the Doll Charolais families have opened up their herd to the buyer’s choice of an open heifer calf from their entire 2019 calf crop! There are 120 head from which to choose. This group of heifers are highlighted by 12 head of daughters of the newly crowned National Champion Bull TR CAG Carbon Copy 7630E ET! You may also select from 15 daughters of the $92,000 2/3 interest PVF Ridge 7142 with his breed improving EPD numbers in the top of the breed. Also included will be 20 daughters to the equally popular WCF Mr Silver Gun 457 with these EPDs ranked in the top 1% of the breed; WW: 74,YW: 126, MTL: 42 and TSI: 266.00! And 13 daughters of their Canadian bred MVY Direct Deposit 22D along with another 20 head of Red Factor heifers. There are about 20 head of Embryo Transplant heifers within those same sire groups along with a handful of LT Affinity 6221 Pld daughters. Many of the ETs are out of proven Doll Charolais donors T388 & A144. The Dolls would like to retain one successful flush in the selected female at their expense and at the buyer’s convenience. This selection needs to either be done before February 1st or after mid-April.

Felon is a Turton on the TR Ms Montie 2716 ET cow that has proven herself time and time again. He is a full sib to CRG Barely Legal 69B who won the Toronto Royal for Oattes Charolais in 2015 and is a 3/4 brother to the Champion heifer at Denver in 2016 TR Ms Berkley 4711B ET raised by the Thomas Ranch, and recently her son BRCHE White Bear 8505 Pld ET named the 2019 National Reserve Grand Champion Bull. Felon is a unique breeding piece being incredibly stout featured and massive muscled yet still laying his shoulder really smoothly into his body and being very clean jointed. He is exceptionally stylish and eye appealing but his added length of body and forearm size give him extra ruggedness. Felon is AA for the PMCH genotype and CC for the IGF2 genotype, testing in the top category for each, while being CT for Leptin and CG for the CRH genotype. He has several full and half-sisters in production who have the promising look to make tremendous cows. As impressive as anything is his large testicle size, he is a real breeding bull. He has the pedigree and look to make show cattle, but the width and power to generate easily marketable bulls.

Now turn your attention to his dam, a daughter of the 2019 National Sale topper at $29,000 LT Brenda 2184 selling to Full Circle Cattle in Kansas. #6418 is quickly rising to the top of our herd and heading into our embryo program.

These Redemption sired cattle are really working and proving to be as consistent of a sire as the Benes have used. Not only will Redemption throw a lot of look, but they are also functional in every way. This bulls dam is one of their highest production cow’s dollar wise with many champions both heifers and bulls. All indicators point to this bull to consistently produce high quality.

This bull is an ET full brother to our two high-selling bulls last year at $5,000 each. It doesn’t get much better than this when you have calving ease on both sides of the pedigree yet maintain this much growth in a smaller mid-size frame. LT Ledger was the logical answer because of his consistency. The #501 donor has been a staple in our herd for the last 15 years, she gets it done!

Last but definitely not least! This is the highest weaning weight ratio bull in their 2019 calf crop. Although the youngest bull of their pen by a bunch, but he holds his own so it is logical that he makes the trip to Denver. His sire produced our high-seller in his rookie calf crop in 2018 and many more since.

Chris Polzin has been enamored by this female since seeing her at the M6 Ranch Dispersal in 2017. She was the talk of the breed leading into that day and when breeders arrived, the excitement stayed high. Grand Hills Cattle placed the winning bid to own her at $36,000! They then offered a guaranteed successful flush in her in Denver where it commanded $10,000. A heifer calf daughter of 484 sold for $11,000 and another son will be a part of the Grand Hills Pen-of-Three right here in Denver. When Grand Hills National Sale “Choice of the Herd” became available it gave Chris another opportunity to add her to their donor lineup. This female provides an unreal combination of EPD’s and phenotype. This IVF cycle will be available shortly after she calves in March at Grand Hills. This guarantee will be for eight (8) frozen embryos with semen provided on any Polzin Cattle or Grand Hills herd sires if the buyer would like.

Herdsman of the Year

( l to r) Jared Boyert, 51st National Herdsman of the Year, Bailey Mangrum, Miss Charolais USA 2020, and Chris Effling, 49th National Herdsman of the Year.

small dream at the Medina County Fair has turned into a successful show cattle operation for Jared Boyert, 51st National Charolais Herdsmen of the Year of Boyert Show Cattle. As a young boy, Jared recalls attending his local County Fair cattle show in Seville, Ohio, where his interest was sparked in showing cattle. Fast forward to today and Jared alongside brothers Jake and Clayton now run the successful multi-breed show cattle operation of Boyert Show Cattle. Growing up Jared’s family owned and operated a greenhouse business in Seville, where his parents instilled the values of hard work and dedication into their six children. Those same family values the Boyerts grew up with are what Boyert Show Cattle was built on. Jared and his brothers originally started their show careers and cow herd in the Shorthorn breed, exhibiting show heifers on an elite level. Jared has always had a keen eye for livestock and attended Black Hawk East and Western Illinois University as a successful part of their livestock judging programs. After graduating from Western Illinois, Jared returned to Black Hawk East, as the livestock judging coach while obtaining his masters at the University of Illinois. Jared’s interest in the Charolais breed began during a judging workout hosted by the Bertsche family of Illinois. They had an impressive set of females and Jared was intrigued, he recalled. Jared later in 2013 had opportunity to judge the Junior Charolais Heifer show in Denver, falling love with the cattle. 48 

J A N U A R Y 2020

Clayton, Jared’s younger brother showed a Charolais heifer at the end of his show career and the rest is history as they began to add more and more Charolais genetics into their cow herd. “I think there are so many talented people in the breed and I have had the opportunity to get to know some great people who helped us from the start,” Jared said. Jared appreciates their Charolais cattle for not just having success in the show ring but also being able to makes cows in production. “They are some if the best cows, being low maintenance, milking good and weaning stout healthy calves,” Jared said. Boyert Show Cattle plans to continue to keep a focus on raising Charolais while still staying diverse as a multi-breed operation as they enjoy the aspect of each breed representing different challenges. Family is very important to Jared and the most special pieces of Boyert Show Cattle are his wife, Bailey and their daughter Sloan. Jared, Bailey and Sloan live in Pleasantville, Iowa, near Bailey’s family, Mark, Deb and Kennedy Core. Jared enjoys working with his family as everyone has a role, but they all come together by bouncing ideas off of each other, trusting one another to make decisions and working together for the common goal of Boyert Show Cattle. “I enjoy running Boyert Show Cattle with my brothers,” Jared said. “To be truthful, I was excited about the award and my brothers deserve it as much as I do, there is a lot that goes into this business to make it all work.”

Show Dedicatee

James pictured with his nephew and neice Ben & Caroline Hayden, Miss Charolais USA, Baylee Mangrum, Mike Schumacher and Neil Orth

rowing up on his family’s dairy farm in Marion County, Kentucky, James Hayden never would have envisioned himself entering the registered Charolais business. This Kentucky cattlemen has a deep appreciation for cattle, learning, and embracing the challenges of the industry. Hayden was born and raised on a dairy farm in Loretto, Kentucky. Through his time growing up on his family’s dairy he found his passion for livestock, learning the true meaning of hard work and dedication. After graduating high school in 1977, Hayden went on to work in the public sector. Being a farmer at heart and wanting to get back to his agriculture roots, Hayden gave up his office job, returning home to Loretto, where he started his own dairy operation. As a one man show, Hayden grew his dairy herd to a 55cow operation. After 6 years of running the dairy, Hayden was presented with an opportunity through the dairy buyout program to liquidate his herd, with the allowance to return to the industry after the required 5-year non-participation clause expired. He executed the dispersal opportunity on the dairy cattle, but his plans changed again when he returned to the public sector and began his commercial beef cattle operation. Reflecting on the demanding schedule of a dairy, Hayden said he enjoyed the added flexibility of running a commercial beef cattle herd. His commercial cattle operation consisted of an Angus based black hided cow herd. When selecting bulls for his herd, Hayden utilized various breeds, including Charolais and liked the calves sired by those bulls. “My Charolais cross calves had several more pounds and added growth,” Hayden said. “My cow herd consisted of more moderate cows and the Charolais bulls worked well to add more growth to those calves.” Hayden liked the calves sired by his Charolais bulls, and after conducting some research, he made the business decision to transition from his commercial cow herd to the Charolais seedstock business. Hayden said he liked the added value his registered cattle

brought to the table. After attending many Charolais sales, Hayden purchased his first Charolais from the Steel Heritage sale in 1996. During his beginning years in the registered cattle business, Hayden learned from listening to other cattlemen, as well as becoming more involved in the breed. He went on to say “after transitioning to the purebred Charolais business, I soon realized that being involved with the breed was a must.” After attending his first Kentucky Charolais Association meeting in the spring of 1997, Hayden learned quickly if you show up they will give you a job, he chuckled. He served many different positions within the Kentucky Charolais Association before running for a seat on the AICA board. In 2012, he was elected as AICA board president. Serving as president, Hayden traveled throughout the United States, as well as foreign countries, promoting the Charolais breed. It afforded him an opportunity to meet with fellow breeders and learn from some of the best in the business. “That was an invaluable experience”, Hayden says. Serving on the AICA board brought many opportunities for Hayden to see the diversity of some of the top operations across the country. He enjoyed having the chance to network with people from around the United States and learning from them and their operations. Today Hayden and his wife, Cathy, call Bardstown, Kentucky, home along with their Charolais operation, consisting of around 100 females where Hayden remains committed to his herd. “I love the challenge,” Hayden said. “Like anyone who plays golf, with each swing you are trying to improve your game. The same theory can be applied to breeding a cow, I hope to get a better calf.” Like many cattlemen in Kentucky, Hayden’s cattle are not just his livelihood, but a passion and lifetime decision. Although today you can add some grandkids into the mix of his attention, Hayden’s idea of retirement includes going out to the farm each day and enjoying his cattle.

continued from page 21 we’ve covered everything,” he explains. “The moxydectins (cydectin) claim to have longer residual effects, but they don’t kill the eggs. Originally the ivermectin pour-ons were thought to have enough residual effect to handle the new hatch, but there may be resistance developing; we’ve certainly demonstrated that with internal parasites, especially with ivermectin. Whenever we keep using the same products year after year we eventually select for the resistant strains of parasites,” says Lias. “When the avermectin pour-on products came on the market, they worked well,” says Barz. “Feedlots were using just a quarter dose on the backs of cattle and it was controlling lice. We are our own enemy, because under-dosing can lead to resistance in the lice. Those products have now been on the market for about 20 years so we’ve built up resistance in populations of lice,” says Barz. Russ Daly, DVM (Extension Veterinarian/Professor, South Dakota State University) says producers often see a resurgence in lice populations after cattle are treated. “Several things play a role, including the fact that most products for killing lice don’t last as long as needed; they kill adult lice but not the eggs. This means that within 3 to 4 weeks there can be a newly-hatched population of lice on the animal,” he says. “Some products last long enough to control a couple cycles of lice emergence, but we can’t expect lice coverage for more than a couple months at most,” he explains. This is one reason producers are advised to not treat too early in the fall, and wait until the weather gets colder, to get the most benefit from treatment—to cover more of the winter months. “In addition, more of the adult lice are active by then. You have more chance of killing them later rather than earlier in the fall when adult lice are fewer and more hidden on the animal,” Daly says. “Regarding resistance issues, I think the problem is often not so much with the product than with timing, or a heavy infestation. We’ve used some of these products for a number of years, but unless we are using the same product frequently throughout the year, for deworming as well as for lice control, I am not sure resistance is building that quickly. We are beginning to see more resistance to deworming products, particularly in parts of the country where they are used more often,” says Daly. He feels that resurgence of lice in some herds is sometimes due to bad timing for the treatment, inadequate dose, or not delousing every animal in 66 

J A N U A R Y 2020

the herd. If untreated cattle mingle with treated cattle, lice can be spread again to the treated cattle. “Many products don’t have a lot of residual activity and won’t keep cattle free of lice for the entire winter,” he explains. Lais says that if we start to see resurgence of lice, it may be because we didn’t get a full kill. “The other issue is the hatch that occurs after we treat the cattle. If a person could re-treat them 2 to 3 weeks after using an avermectin pour-on product (following with a pyrethroid pour-on) this would provide a more complete kill.” The second treatment would kill the newly hatched lice before they mature to start laying eggs. Barz says lice have about a 28-day life cycle. Adults lay eggs, the eggs hatch and become nymphs, then mature and become adults about 28 days after hatching. “If we use a product that merely kills adults and some of the nymphs, there’s still a chance of more lice coming on from the eggs that have not yet hatched.” None of the products kill the eggs, and most don’t have a long enough residual effect to kill the lice that hatch later. “When the avermectins came out, they were originally marketed as one pour once a year, to take care of all your lice problems. We started to have problems 12 years ago, and the companies realized they couldn’t say that one treatment would last all winter. They said we have to pour cattle at least twice— about 28 to 30 days apart, to kill any lice that hatched after the first treatment,” says Barz. For most beef operations, however, cattle are poured when the producer is pregnancy checking, vaccinating, etc. or getting cattle in for some reason. It is convenient to pour them once, but not always possible to give that second treatment. “One new product does seem to work if you can only pour cattle once. It’s called Clean-Up II and contains a pyrethroid (which kills adult lice) plus an insect growth regulator that keeps nymphs and newly hatched lice from maturing. We’ve been using that for several years and seeing better results. This might be something to try if cattle continue to have lice problems after traditional treatments,” Barz says. “The nice thing about lice,

CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

in terms of control, is that their entire life cycle occurs on the host,” says Lias. “This makes them easier to control than fleas in dogs, or ticks and flies that leave the host to lay eggs in the environment, spending part of their life somewhere else. With lice, everything happens on the cow, so if you are judicious in the products you use and timing of treatments, you should have good control,” says Lias. This means delousing every animal, and not letting treated animals mingle with untreated animals that might re-infest treated cattle. “When I see flare-ups of lice again in winter, it is because the producer was not careful about making sure all cattle got treated at the same time. Sometimes they’ll do one group and plan to do another group next week, and something happens and it doesn’t get done,” he says. Exposure to an untreated animal is all it takes, and lice start all over again. This is especially true in winter when cattle are more confined—grouped for feeding or calving. Cattle may be brought into a drylot after coming off cornstalks. They have closer contact with each other and may get lice from an untreated animal. If you have to treat again during winter, it’s best to just use a pour-on pyrethroid product. “Otherwise, if you are in a region that has cattle grubs, you’d have to be careful on the timing in late winter (to not kill grubs at the phase of their life cycle that might cause a reaction in the esophagus or along the spinal cord). If you have grubs, avoid the avermectins,” he says. Other tactics for late winter control include oils, dusters, back-rubbers, etc. that can be installed in the pen or pasture for cattle to rub on and self-treat for the lice that are causing itching at that time. “The choice for fall treatment however is often one of the avermectins because they control internal parasites,” Barz says. Each producer needs to figure out a strategy that works best for their own situation and management.

“In some of our feedlots we’ve been using injectable and pour-on products at the same time--a full dose of each--and in those cattle we haven’t seen as much problem with lice recurring. Hopefully we are getting a better kill, and maybe more residual effect.” The companies that market the original products claim that they are much better than the generics that have become available. “The original products do have problems, however. Using them does not mean you won’t get a new hatch of lice later. It doesn’t seem to make much difference what you use,” he says. There may still be a rebound in lice population before winter is over. “The old way, before we had insecticides, was to feed more protein and use the back-rubbers with oil on them, so the cows’ hair was oily—which tends to deter lice. But these are only spot treatments. Also, in every herd it seems like there are a few cows that act as carriers; they have heavier infestations and may have lice even after treatment, spreading lice to the other cattle,” Barz says. Lice are often a problem on young calves. “If a cow has lice, some are transferred to her calf. The lice population explodes on the calf because it is small and thin-skinned. If you look closely, some of the lighter-colored calves will almost be black with lice. Controlling lice on the cows is important, so they won’t spread lice to their calves.” Some lice are always there, in any herd. They prey on the young, the weak, the old, and any thin, sick ones. Any animal that is compromised tends to have more lice. “If these parasites are taking blood, that animal is more susceptible to pneumonia, scours and other secondary infections. This is why lice control is important--not just because the cattle are scratching/rubbing the fence down. Lice are nibbling away at the potential of your herd!” says Barz.

“The nice thing about lice, in terms of control, is that their entire life cycle occurs on the host,” says Lias. “This makes them easier to control than fleas in dogs, or ticks and flies that leave the host to lay eggs in the environment, spending part of their life somewhere else.

NEWS NOTES

AICA MEMBERSHIP Ricketts receives 2019 Ag Educators Lifetime Achievement Award

The organizers of the Missouri Livestock Symposium announced that longtime dairy educator and agriculture industry leader Rex Ricketts, of Hallsville, will receive the 2019 Agriculture Educators Lifetime Achievement Award. Ricketts, University of Missouri professor emeritus of animal sciences, will receive the award 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 6, at the 20th annual symposium at William Matthew Middle School, Kirksville. The evening’s keynote speaker is Temple Grandin, animal sciences professor at Colorado State University and prominent author and speaker on autism. Ricketts retired as coordinator of the MU Extension Commercial Agriculture program in 2013 after 42 years of service. “His ability and energetic efforts to analyze a situation and outline constructive programs have contributed much to Missouri agriculture,” says Zac Erwin, MU Extension field specialist in livestock and one of the organizers of the symposium. While Ricketts’ specialty is dairy, he has worked extensively with swine, beef and agronomy educators and industry leaders across the state and nation, Erwin says. “Livestock teams that he organized at MU exemplify Ricketts’ focus on the land-grant mission of giving instruction and practical demonstrations of existing or improved practices or technologies in agriculture.” “Ricketts’ multidisciplinary collaborations at MU continue to be emulated by other universities that want to move faculty from the narrow focus of their individual disciplines to a more integrated, holistic, perspective of agriculture. These teams developed products that continue to be used in agriculture today,” Erwin says. Ricketts grew up on 160-acre farm with a registered Jersey dairy herd at Fair Grove, Mo. During high school, he and his brothers showed many prize-winning cattle at fairs. He earned a bachelor’s degree in agriculture in 1963, a master’s degree in 1964 and a doctorate in dairy husbandry in 1970 from MU. In college, he was president of the ag and student dairy clubs. The MU College of Agriculture named him the 1962-63 Outstanding Senior. He was a member of numerous honor societies and earned High Individual Award as part of Mizzou’s Dairy Judging Team at an international contest in 1961. Early employers included Cargill Nutrena Mills and Ralston Purina. In 1970, he became the MU Extension state dairy specialist. In 1985, the MU Department of Dairy Sciences named him as chair. In 1989, Ricketts became MU Commercial Agriculture coordinator. While chair of dairy science at MU, Ricketts led the Missouri Dairymen’s Institute, the All Breeds Show and Sale, and Dairy Day programs. He strongly promoted the state Dairy Herd Improvement Association program

and the Missouri Livestock and Poultry Health Council. He revamped the management and cropping system at MU’s Foremost Dairy Research Center to increase feed and milk production and improve labor efficiency. He worked closely with state breed and dairy products organizations as well as 4-H and FFA. The Missouri Dairy Hall of Honors bestowed its Dairy Leadership Award to him in 1993. He lives in Hallsville with his wife, Sondra, who holds a bachelor’s in education from MU and is retired after 28 years as a librarian. They have three children, who were active in 4-H, and six grandchildren. All are Mizzou graduates. Their son, Chad, was the first graduate of the MU food engineering program. He owns and runs his own food engineering company in Tulsa, Okla. Daughter Trina is an attorney shareholder with Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart P.C. in Kansas City, Mo. Neysa, their youngest, farms with her husband in Lawrence County and is a senior oncology specialist for Amgen. Obituary

a grandson, Thomas Wattinger; a sonin-law, Keith Quick; two sisters, Mary Ann Thomson and Ethel Colvard. Rosary service was held Thursday, December 19th, at Brotherton Funeral Home Chapel in Charleston. At the young age of 17, Everett lost his father and was immediately thrust into the role of breadwinner for his mother and 5 younger siblings. His dad’s concrete finishing crew took him in and taught him the trade so he could provide for the family. He was determined to finish high school and was able to graduate with the Charleston class of 1943. In 1944 he was drafted into the Army, but at his induction ceremony in Little Rock, he was pulled out and moved for induction into the Navy instead where he served as a radarman and gunner on the USS LSM-119. He served in the Pacific and just missed the invasion of Iwo Jima but was later involved in the invasion of Okinawa. In 1946 he was honorably discharged and returned to Charleston. His mother married Leo Gilsinger, a man whom Everett would come to hold in high esteem, and then another child, Nick, was added to the family. Everett had started his own concrete construction company and in 1958 he bought his first Charolais bull and a lifelong obsession with the Charolais breed began. In 1959 he met and married Peggy Smith Higgins and immediately started the expansion of the Buckner clan with Melinda Jane, Melissa Gail, Mary Ann, Manda Lou, Martha Lynn, and William Everett. In 1961 he partnered with Jerry Sweetser, of Fayetteville as Sweetser-Buckner Ready-Mix Concrete, Inc. S & B Ready-Mix had plants in Charleston, Booneville, Waldron, and Huntsville and they also had real estate holdings in NW Arkansas. They worked throughout Arkansas, and in other states and eventually started Sweetser-Buckner Contractors, Inc. and were in business for several years until the partnership was divided with Everett taking control of S & B Ready-Mix and with Jerry taking the real estate business. Later, Everett would meet a new partner, Adrain “Cotton” Fleming, and together they formed Buckner-Fleming Concrete Contractors, Inc. which after Cotton’s retirement in 1987 lived on and is now in its current incarnation as Buckner Concrete Contractors, Inc.
