VIEWPOINT

CHAROLAIS New isn’t new, it just feels that way!

Embrace the challenges.

ossing the 2018 calendar and starting on a fresh, new page for 2019 is a simple task that signals some of the busiest, most important months of the year. The first quarter of each new year brings on spring calving, early production sales and a series of national livestock exhibitions that place beef production on center stage across America. We all know it isn’t new. It just feels that way. After all, when the festivities begin in Denver to officially open the show, the National Western Stock Show (NWSS) will be celebrating 113 years! Last year, 2018, more than 700,000 citizens attended the NWSS. That attendance was only surpassed in 2006, during the 100-year anniversary. According to the NWSS website, more than

Federation, recently stated, “We’re headed for $8 billion this year. I think we’ll have no problem going over that milestone.” Heads up! The second report, Select Beef Will Be Phased Out, likely confirms what many industry thought leaders already knew. The demand for USDA Select beef is rapidly declining and in a few short years, six to be exact, the prediction is that Select beef will likely be handled by large packers “as a lower value by-product that is sold off separately to niche beef processors at a sizable discount.” Select Beef Will Be Phased Out is a white paper report written by Tom Brink, CEO, Red Angus Association of America and founder of Top Dollar Angus. The easy way out is to discount the report because it was written

The year’s beginning signals a fresh new calf crop. The tools at every producer’s disposal provides opportunity for genetic improvement like never before. 20,000 livestock entries will be processed representing more than 20 breeds of cattle. The economic impact to the city of Denver is significant. The most important impact, yet immeasurable, is the opportunity for people, city people and children, to learn just a little something about where the food they eat begins. Realizing the moment in time that a city youngster, arriving in a school bus for a class tour, moves through an exhibit is merely a snapshot; none the less, our industry has a chance to make an impact. Just maybe a city kid sees another youngster parading a calf and thinks just maybe, he or she could do that someday. It’s a long shot, but our industry is accustomed to taking long shots every day or we wouldn’t be in business. The year’s beginning signals a fresh new calf crop. The tools at every producer’s disposal provides opportunity for genetic improvement like never before. Recent marketing data suggests progressive producers are using those tools and the results are remarkable. Just recently, national media reported a couple of significant industry signals. Drovers Journal reported a record smashing pace for beef exports. From January through October, beef exports were up 9% over last year. Beef export value was up 17% and the export volume for muscle cuts was up 12%. The report went on to state that Japan, which still levees a 38.5% tariff on most all U.S. beef, is the largest value destination for our quality products. Joe Schuele, communications director, U.S. Meat Export

by representative from a competing breed. Except, Brink has spent the majority of his professional career directly involved in domestic and international beef marketing. The report is a testament to the real progress being made across all production sectors toward quality improvement. Registered and commercial Charolais producers have embraced the tools to improve phenotype and genotype across the board. The improvements in the purebred sector are documented in the most recent AICA genetic trend analysis. Improvements in the commercial sector are documented in the marketplace—the auction barn or cattle feeder. Arguably the greatest driver is demand. While the average producer may struggle to connect the dots after a calf leaves the ranch, that same producer knows if there was sufficient demand for the calf on sale day. Massive public displays of our cattle in national events like Denver, Houston, Fort Worth and others have value and provide a priceless platform to educate. Genetic selection tools are being extensively used to improve quality and, therefore, have great value. Higher quality beef is experiencing extraordinary demand and the consumer is willing to pay for it. Let’s all appreciate each industry sector for what it represents in the value equation and trust that if we embrace the challenge to make beef better, the consumer is waiting to purchase our products.

Dues Reminder

AmericanInternational Charolais Association The AICA is the official registry for Charolais and Charbray cattle in the United States. Charolais cattle were first brought to the U.S. in 1936. In 1957, the American Charolais Breeders Association and the International Charolais Breeders Association merged forming the present AICA. Membership in the AICA is obtainable when the applicant has ownership in at least one animal, and has paid the initial membership fee of $125. AICA annual dues are $100.

Annual dues are now due. Active members – $100; junior member – $25. Junior member Charolais Journal subscriptions are an additional $25. Reminders were mailed in December. Be sure to update all contact information including e-mails and websites. If dues are not renewed for 2019, online passwords will not work. Enroll Your Females

January, February and March are enrollment months for Charolais females. Online enrollment is open for the 2019 calving year. Members who have not begun the enrollment process online will receive the paper forms in February. The WHR program continues to be $14 per active female until April 1st and includes a free registration and transfer for the 2019 born calf. The PPR program is available at no-charge; however, you will pay registration and transfer fees on each calf. Year letter for 2019 is G.

Record your 2019 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 tie by adding their name. Advertising Deadline

AICA Sire Selector Tool

Mwegner@Charolaisusa.com

Learn how to use the AICA Sire Selector Tool by viewing the instructional video posted on the AICA website and YouTube. Utilize the AICA Sire/Dam selector to identify genetics according to EPDs, TSI index and additional search parameters. Display a Photo of Your Herd Bull or Cow on the AICA Online Registry

For a fee of $25.00, AICA will upload the animal picture to the their page on the AICA Online Registry System. Each time someone pulls up your animal on the website, the picture of the animal will appear. To have your herd bull or cow included, you must supply a picture in JPEG format. Please contact the AICA office or send an e-mail to mschoen@charolaisusa.com. 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. 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. Sales of Bred Females

Females sold bred must have all breeding information included to complete the transfer. Service date and appropriate sire signatures are necessary.

Directors By Area Area 1 Tara Tellefson Warden, WA (509) 793-8535

i everyone, my name is Madison Andrade and I am serving as this year’s Area 7 Director and Treasurer! I am currently a sophomore at Butler Community College where I will obtain my associates degree in animal science and am also competing on the livestock judging team. After Butler, I would like to transfer to a four-year university majoring in Animal Science with an emphasis in embryology and minor in Ag Communications while also continuing my passion for judging. I grew up on a Charolais cow/calf operation in the small town of San Juan Bautista, California and have been a member of the AIJCA since I was 5. When I first started showing, it was all about winning. Being able to hold that shiny buckle and hang a huge banner on my wall, it’s what every young person dreams of. Prizes

Nobody likes defeat, but it is also good to be a gracious loser. I have always been told that you just can’t win them all. There will always be someone out there somewhere who works twice as hard, stays up twice as late, or has the package that all comes together at the right time. We as young people must realize that the work we put in is what we get out of it. Maybe you didn’t win the National Western Stock Show this year, maybe you didn’t win showmanship at your county fair, no matter what level you are at, it is always important to not show that you feel defeated, because then you always will be. I remember when I was younger, right around nine years old, and I had taken second in showmanship at one of our state jackpots. I already had a few wins under my belt and thought I was pretty darn good! I wasn’t very happy about getting that red ribbon and in

“Having a humble attitude means you can acknowledge your success while respecting and appreciating the efforts of those you competed against.” equal success. Yet with success, I learned there also comes huge responsibility, and one of those responsibilities is to stay humble. Humble is defined as “modest; without an excess of pride,” and it is something that I believe everyone should learn at a young age. Being humble, whether you are in or out of the ring, shows who you truly are as a person. Of course, you want to jump for joy and scream and yell when you’ve achieved a huge accomplishment, but what about everyone else who put just as much work in as you did? Having a humble attitude means you can acknowledge your success while respecting and appreciating the efforts of those you competed against. As my grandpa, Dan Bush, has always told me, “It doesn’t matter what the trailer looks like, it’s what’s in it that counts,” and I believe this also goes for people, as it’s what’s on the inside that is most important and also how you conduct yourself in front of others. 24 

turn looked upset when the judge got on the microphone. I didn’t realize at that moment, the photographer in the ring had taken my picture, and the face that I made would be on film forever. It became one of those “life lessons” that you never forget. That is when I truly learned that humbleness is the key to success. Earlier, I mentioned winning. Winning was the goal. Second was not an option. I have since redefined “winning” in my dictionary. While it is still nice to get the trophy, belt buckle or banner, for me winning means being proud of what I achieved. The goal I set, the hard work and effort I put in toward that goal, and at the end of the day knowing I did my absolute best – in the showring, in the judging contest, in the classroom, or whatever situation it may be. I may not have achieved the highest level I had hoped for, but being able to walk away knowing I gave it my best shot on that day is a “win” in my book. CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

Selling Full Interest and Full Possession! Without doubt this powerful herd sire prospect will cause some commotion in Denver! To be designated Lot 1 in any sale offering brings about that quick recognition that this is one to pay attention to! What a powering pedigree and pounds. The M&M Outsider progeny have totally dominated the Charolais scene in the show ring, the sale ring, in advertising, promotion, excitement, it just goes on and on this past two years. At this past Octoberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 50th National Charolais Show in Kansas City - Outsider sired ALL FOUR of the National Champions and most of the Division Champions and Reserves. The American Royal Junior Charolais Show was won by a daughter of Outsider and she captured the Supreme Champion award over all breeds, a feat almost unheard of for the breed! At the 49th National Show in Denver, January of 2018 three of the four National Champions were sired by Outsider! His progeny are over powering! We are excited to get a true herd sire prospect sired by the great M&M Outsider to sell at public auction during the Charolais in the Rockies sale. Being sired by Outsider adds the desirable genetics of his $57,500 dam into the power pedigree along with the maternal side of his dam sired by the National Champion Turton a full brother to many, many more National Champions going back to the great Thomas Ms Impressive 0641! This outstanding bull out of a first calf heifer is extremely quiet and an easykeeper. He was only shown once at the Colorado State Fair and was the Grand Champion Bull. Get in on the ground floor of one of the oldest and best M&M Outsider sons to sell to start off the New Year!

EB Main Event 2148 – National Senior Champion Bull n Selling Three-Quarter

Interest and Full Possession! n EB Main Event 2148 was the most talked about bull during the National Charolais Show in Kansas City this past October and the “crowd favorite”! He has been a standout at Bianchi Ranches since day one. They knew he was something special as a big footed, smooth package. His sire Spur Encore 1A444 was purchased out of the 2014 Silver Spur Ranch exciting Denver Penof-Three Bulls for $18,000. He immediately hit it off with our cowherd when his calves started coming. He adds power, muscle and stoutness to any herd. He is a total outcross to most herds. Here is a fresh and exciting herd sire to change your herd for the better! n EB Main Event 2148 has had by far the most wins on the West Coast for the past two years, winning countless Supreme titles. Just look at his record: 2018 National Senior Champion Bull in Kansas City; 2018 National Reserve Senior Calf Champion Bull in Denver; Champion Charolais Bull NILE 2017 & 2018, Champion Charolais Bull 2017 & 2018 & Supreme in 2018 Oregon State Fair; Supreme Champion Bull California State Fair 2018, Supreme Champion Bull 2018 Sonoma County Fair (300 plus head show) and Supreme Champion Bull 2018 San Diego County Fair (largest cattle event on the West Coast 400 plus head)!

Selling One-Half Interest and Full Possession! Here is a true herd sire candidate that all breeders will need to take a look at and consider. This could be one of the widest bodied, deepest ribbed bulls in Denver! One only needs to start with his EPD profile to see what this herd changer could do in your program. VFR Navigator 7C63’s EPDs rank him in the top 1% of the breed for WW, YW & MTL, the top 3% for SC and the top 1% for CW, REA & TSI!!!!! The next step is to look into his fantastic pedigree tabulation and discover more reasons to buy this herd sire. His sire is one of the most widely used herd sires from the M6 Ranch lineage in the breed with 1,000 progeny registered at AICA. M6 Cool Rep 8108’s dam didn’t only produce him, but also the highly used SR/NC Field Rep 2158 P ET who has 1,036 progeny registered and recently another of her sons M6 Fresh Air 8165 P ET has come on to the scene with 633 progeny registered with most recent calves being registered by Lindskov-Thiel Ranch, Hubert Charolais, Cannon Charolais & Southern Cattle Company using him extensively. So add that successful pedigree on top of another power genetic powerhouse. The dam of this bull has a TSI EPD that is one of the highest in the breed coming in at 247.93 as of December 1st This is her first calf that she had well before her second birthday and just look at her beautiful picture at that time! The Vaughan family will be invested heavily into promoting her and this herd sire prospect into the future with you. The maternal grand sire is LT Sundance 2251 just another great producer in the breed and then go on into the maternal grand dam M6 Ms New Jewell 0155 whose progeny by BCA Monti Montana have just shaken up the Canadian Charolais breed! It’s all here for the taking; stacked pedigree, stacked EPDs, performance, heritage, it just doesn’t stop.

Choice of Herd

n It is always an honor to get to sell a choice from Eaton Charolais, the largest Charolais herd in America! The Eaton family always allows us to sell the “Choice of Herd Sire Prospects” in Denver, once a year. The last two years this onehalf interest has sold for $11,000 & $15,000. n There is over 50 plus head of ETN herd sires born in 2017 already selected by the Eaton family to use as herd sires this coming summer and you can go into that group to pick one, but don’t think that’s all you get to choose from! There is another 1,000 of 2018 spring born yearling bull calves on test and if you’ve got the heart for it, go sort through them! The Eaton bloodlines continue to influence the entire Charolais breed. In the fall run of the AICA Sire Summary there were 118 ETN sires listed from purebred breeders in 9 states registering progeny. And it didn’t stop there. There were 8 EATON sires listed as AICA Trait Leaders for 5 different traits of BW, WW, Milk, MCE and HCW! We will sell ½ interest and full possession of your choice of these bulls, don’t leave Denver without giving this selection your utmost attention.

Selling Choice of One Bred Heifer

The cows in the Cobb herd are studies of excellence in themselves. The stacking of performance upon performance in their pedigrees has produced a Cobb female unequalled in their genetic ability to produce and reproduce superior Charolais females. All of this done in one of the most demanding environments results in these females being a sound, realitybased product on which you can depend. The Cobb herd is the third or fourth largest registered Charolais herd in the United States with over 700 head enrolled at AICA. This herd has been a closed herd for over 60 plus years and is a performance legend, selectively linebred and constantly culled. There will be over 100 head of both fall born 2016 bred heifers (this is the first time they have included the falls) and spring born 2017 bred heifers from which to make this selection. BUT you only get to pick ONE! These heifers are due to calve in February through March and you may wait until they have calved out to make your selection from pairs, so a huge advantage. But they would require that you make this selection before May 15, 2019 so they can be moved to pasture. They only make this selection possible once a year during the Denver Stock Show and the last two years this “Choice of the Cobb Bred Heifers” has sold for $8,000 and $10,000, so be prepared!

This is another one of those “Only for the Denver Sale – Once a Year” offerings! Now under the care and management of Lacy & Matt Hebbert, they are opening the herd for your choice of their females. This is one of the truly exciting and thoughtful choices to be made. There are today over 500 head of bred spring calving females from which to select. If you can’t find a great one out of each group of bred cows or bred heifers, you ain’t trying very hard! This is a really quiet, docile set of females.

Selling buyers choice of one bred cow from 375 head.

Selling buyers choice of one bred heifer from 125 head.

These cows are bred to several top bloodline bulls including LT-HC Blue Rock 0368 (a maternal brother to LT Rushmore 8060 and 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 out of Oakdale Duke 9003 daughter) and HC Lone Ranger 4366 (LT Long Distance 9001 son).

These heifers are bred to several calving ease bloodline sires, mostly Long Distance, Rushmore, Ledger and Wrangler genetics. And the beauty of these selections, you don’t have to choose your picks until after they all calve out! That’s right, you will get pairs, just come pick before turn out on grass time before May 1, 2019. This choice of the herd average auction price each year usually sells in the $8,000 to $13,000 range with some of the breed’s elite breeders always trying to get this “pick of the herd” brought home.

Selling Choice of Rambur Bred & Open Heifers



Once again we welcome the consignment to Charolais in the Rockies from Howard Rambur in Montana. This “Choice of the Herd” will consist of TWO selections. One from his entire set of spring calving bred heifers which is approximately 40 head and one from his spring born 2018 open heifer calves consisting of about 80 head. Howard has already sorted both of these groups down to the “top shelf” of each group from a cow herd size of over 250 momma cows. Howard founded Rambur Charolais over 30 years ago in eastern Montana after watching what Charolais cattle do in the harsh rangelands. He said mother nature brings on tough times from wintering calving in 40 below winters to droughts and 100 degree summers. In this environment, traits like calving ease, ease of fleshing, fertility and structural soundness take care of themselves. These Rambur bred females are bred to be tough. The genetic germ plasma of RC Budsmydad 225, born in 1992 is built into the base of the Rambur herd and still today is popular genetics throughout the breed. Many other well known Rambur Charolais pedigrees have come out of this program including RC Ms Bud 418 Polled, RC Sirloin 6111, RC Montana 644 and RC Denver 6026. The RC Ranch has always been a true performance program where the environment and the scale rigoriously cull this herd into trouble-free cattle that will work in the beef industry without problems.

This powerful brood cow has captivated every breeder that has laid eyes upon her and when we say every breeder we mean from the other breeds as well! When Nathan Reinhart produced this great female, Mark Satterfield knew from the moment he laid eyes upon her as a weaned calf, he had to own part of her. She is every bit as powerful as the picture shows. Sired by the renowned M6 New Standard 842 and out of the extremely popular M6 Ms 761 Nancy 6100 she pulls together one of the strongest sets of EPDs in the breed. Her breed changing numbers include being in the top 3% of the breed for WW, top 1% for YW, top 15% for Milk, top 3% for MTL, top 1% for SC, top 1% for CW, top 2% for REA, top 7% for MARB and top 1% for TSI! See if you can find a few other brood cows with those stats! Reinharts Ms New Nancy 323E walked through the Satterfield Charolais sale ring this past September when one-half interest sold for $26,500 to a wide array of bidders in the stands and on the cell phones. The new owners and Mark feel they owe it to those breeders to offer this guaranteed successful flush so they may share in a piece of her genetic power.

One of the most beautiful patterned females you’ve laid eyes on. She was only shown on a limited basis after selling for $25,000 as a less than weaning age calf, but still went to the North American International Livestock Exposition in Louisville at seven months of age and was named the Reserve Spring Heifer Calf Champion. Her show record concluded at the top when she won the 2018 Grand Champion Female spot at the 100 head National ROE show in Fort Worth. This great donor prospect is sired by the National Champion Turton and her dam RJB Ms Mary 105 is a flush sister to the $54,000 half-interest RJB Peebles 004 that sold in the Embryos on Snow in Denver two years back. She is due to calve in March 2019 to the National Champion TR Mr Outkast 6605D and will be ready to flush shortly thereafter to an IVF flush at Polzin Embryo Center. Bryan Wolff, PIBB Cattle Company and Polzin Cattle stand ready to share the genetics of this great female with a guaranteed successful flush. Now let’s add a little more excitement to this offering. They will also provide semen for your flush to Sharodon Double Vision 1D Pld that we sold the U.S. semen rights in the National Sale in Denver last January for $19,500 to Polzin Cattle and Thomas Ranch. He went on from there to be named the Canadian National Champion Bull this past fall and a heifer from his first calf crop was recently named the Agribition Heifer Calf Champion. This bull is a complete outcross to most all the popular bloodlines in the U.S. today, this might be an excellent opportunity to use this herd sire. Look for Double Vision in the Thomas/Polzin stalls on the Hill in Denver!

She is the FIRST born progeny of the great M&M Outsider! AND the FIRST to hit the show ring and make a statement for M&M Outsider and the things that were to come! At the 2017 48th National Show in Fort Worth, Texas this tremendous daughter of Outsider walked away with the National Reserve Grand Champion Female title and the breed hasn’t been the same since. At the next 49th National Show in Denver 2018, three of the 4 National Champions were sired by Outsider! And in October 2018 the 50th National Show all 4 National Champions were sired by M&M Outsider 4003 Pld! But will she be fertile and milk, you tell me! She settled first service AI to CCC WC Resource 417 and calved as a two-year-old heifer on January 7, 2018. She weaned that bull calf - WIA-WC Renegade F03 P to an adjusted weaning weight of 1,071 lbs.!!!!! After putting it all into that calf she bred AI again to the $92,000 PVF Ridge 7142 and is due March 1st. On September 15, 2018 a one-half interest in her sold during the Wild Indian Acres & Friends Sale for $20,000 to Gillig Genetics, Aurora, Missouri. These kind of opportunities don’t come along that often and it is a guaranteed flush of a minimum of 7 frozen embryos. And that’s not all, if the astute buyer would like to flush her to either one of these “hot” sires of the breed – PVF Ridge 7142 or BCA Monti Montana, take your choice! Wild Indian Acres will provide that semen! Opportunity is knocking!

Here is an opportunity to buy into the genetics and a partnership with a great young female and a partner that knows how to market those genetics! This heifer is one of the last and most likely the BEST daughter of the recently deceased M6 Ms 761 Nancy 6100 P ET! The Ms Nancy 6100 has truly been “the cash cow” for North Grove Charolais and Double-H and this daughter has the potential to do it too. Between those two breeders they have over $70,000 in embryo sales and over $250,000 in progeny sales!!!!! The average sale price of her top 10 offspring is $15,825! It doesn’t take a lot of thought to figure out you need to be a part of this genetic giant, just throw the added marketing that her sire Resource adds to it. Her pedigree just spills over with great sires and donor dams. She won’t be in Denver and will remain at Double-H for all flush work. Echo will be ready to flush to any mutually agreed upon sire shortly after the sale. The buyer will receive 50% of all embryos produced and 1/3 of all natural calves. Double-H will pay all maintenance expenses for the cow and her natural calves. Oh, did we tell you she has been DNA tested Homozygous Polled? Make your investment and sit back and watch the checks come in!

The mating of M&M Outsider to this heifer’s dam was a brilliant move and explained by Clayton as follows. “My brothers and I have always enjoyed bringing cattle out and marketing them in the sales in Denver. So when we decided to bring this heifer calf we were excited because she is the kind we like to produce and market. From a genetic standpoint, this younger April female is out of a future donor for our operation. The Ms Covergirl cow is good functional cattle, perfect footed, great udder and still has an awesome look. The mating to Outsider we always thought was a sure bet, yet this heifer calf still exceeds those expectations. If I could put one label on her I’d just say genuine. Her dimension, from a body shape and width standpoint are phenomenal. What makes her unique for us, is with that power, her build and structure are ideal but still has the look Outsider has been putting in these cattle. I’m not sure why we are selling this one, it’s hard to find them made like this! Check her out in Denver!” These young men know their cattle and how to succeed with them. At the recent National Charolais Show in Kanas City this past October they exhibited these M&M Outsider winners: National Reserve Grand Champion Bull with Boy Outlier 812 ET Pld, just a March 2018 calf, the National Spring Calf Champion Heifer Calf, the National Junior Calf Champion Heifer Calf and bred the National Reserve Grand Champion Female BK Boy Eye Catching 740E ET! Jump on board the train and be a part of this success!

This young Charolais composite has been a standout for us since day one. When we bought this cow’s dam, we knew she was backed by champion genetics reigning from the B3 Livestock and the Bauman family name from Wyoming. Her maternal grand dam, KKWB Miss Daisy R1 was a National Reserve Grand Champion which has served as a cornerstone generator for the majority of their purebred operation. Her progeny found their way into some of the elite club calf programs in the nation including Kroupa, Duello, Standridge, LK Ranch and WGB Will Blankers. Another interesting fact is that Kroupa’s son of Daisy R1 was B3 Wyoming Cowboy T752 that sired another National Reserve Grand Champion Female – B3 Miss Maura 17X! That same day KKWB Miss Daisy R1 was slapped a National Reserve Champion, TR Mr Fire Water was named the National Champion Bull and was selected to flush to KKWB Miss Daisy R1 to produce the dam of this heifer, B3 Shedaisy 350A ET! She went on to also being shown successfully throughout her career. Her sire was also a National Champion Bull - Sparrows Madrid 7M. When we decided on the mating for her, we couldn’t help by resort to one of the most dominant club calf sires on the market – Fu Man Chu. This great composite heifer not only has the build and look to be competitive in the show ring, but the cow power, heritage and potential to go with it! Be on the lookout for this great composite show heifer prospect at the National Western Stock Show.

Jerry Arthur will bring this outstanding, perfectly made pen of heifers to the National Western Stock Show to make a statement of just how good his herd sire is. This will be one of the most uniform, moderate, attractive made pens of heifers to show in Denver in quite some time. This is his first calf crop and to say it is pleasing is an understatement. Their sire CCC Major Impact 613 sparked interest in the breed when he was the lead off bull in the Cody Cattle Company Reserve Grand Pen-of-Bulls in 2017. He then had a one-half interest and one-half possession in him sold for $27,000 after posting an AWW of 852 lbs. along with a 4.02 IMF and 18.30 REA at yearling.

These embryos are full sibs to the $54,000 WC Dream Girl 6243 P, one of the most beautiful young donors you have laid eyes on. She is quickly becoming the next great Rushmore daughter in the breed. After many breeders tried to buy as a weaning age calf she went on to be selected the National Senior Champion Female during the 2018 National Charolais Show in Denver in January. Her dam WC Miss Value 2213 has quickly become one of the greatest Blue Value daughters in the Wright Charolais herd. She was born on February 20, 2012 and produced all heifer calves with a calving interval of: 2-2-14, 1-24-15, 1-18-16 and 1-20-17 and then went into embryo transplant. The average adjusted weaning weight of those heifer calves was 702.3 lbs. with an average weaning weight ratio of 105.7. There is some genetic power build into these embryos.

Sometimes an opportunity only comes around once in a lifetime and this may just be that time! This is one of those magical matings. These embryos are sired by the newest, most exciting herd sire on the planet and not just because he was lost early in life and semen supplies are limited! A one-half interest in PVF Ridge sold this past spring in the Prairie Valley Farms Bull Sale for $92,000. His semen topped the National Charolais Sale when 100 units of semen totaled $38,250. Now you can throw in his weaning weight performance of 889 lbs. to ratio 112 and you’ll soon see where this is going mated to the donor dam of this lot. The donor dam is none other than WC Lady Blue 0506 P, the dam of the 2016 Wright Charolais high-selling bull at $125,000 WC Milestone 5223 P for one-half interest and one-half possession. His adjusted weaning weight was 861 lbs. to ratio 114, the #1 ranked WW bull out of 52 contemporaries. The following year she did it again producing the 2017 Wright Charolais high-selling bull WC Executive 6211 P and he sold for $110,000 one-half interest after she weaned him off to 848 lbs., ratio 114 and again the #1 ranked bull in his contemp group of 51. The number of cows in ALL breeds that have weaned off two natural born sons that have sold for over $100,000 is miniscule if it has even happened! So, do the math. Donor dam weans two bull calves with weaning weights of 861 and 848 lbs. mated to a popular sire that had a weaning weight of 889 lbs., both sire and dam have as desirable phenotype as you could ask for and dam’s progeny have all sold near $100,000!!!!!

American International Charolais Association CHAROLAIS UDDER QUALITY GENETIC EVALUATION RESEARCH REPORT At the October 24, 2018, AICA Breed Improvement Committee Meeting, Sally Northcutt, Method Genetics, presented an update on AICA Udder Score Research.This report is being published as indicated by action taken by the committee.

Few may be aware, but in the last 10 years, the Charolais breeders have amassed a sizable udder score database. The American International Charolais Association’s Whole Herd Rewards (WHR) process has been a contributing factor in capturing these valuable cowherd records. Udder soundness is a major factor in determining cow longevity. Poor udder quality can contribute to calf mortality, increased labor requirements, and more frequent animal handling. The purpose of the following research report is to estimate the genetic parameters for udder traits and to summarize research-based expected progeny differences for udder suspension and teat size.

UDDER SCORE REPORTING

Individual udder suspension and teat size scores Pendulous, broken ﬂoor Large are reported by Charolais breeders to the American International Charolais Association (AICA) using an nine-point scoring system as recommended in the Very pendulous, broken ﬂoor Very large, balloon shape Beef Improvement Federation Guidelines (9th edition, March 2018). The AICA reported udder score is a two-digit code in which the first digit is associated with suspension and Figure 2. Example form for AICA udder score data entry by breeders. the second digit represents teat size. These scores are assigned by breeders to individual females, preferably by the same person on the weakest quarter at or near a 24- hour window of calving. Udder suspension scores are assigned ranging from a numeric 9 (very tight) to 1 (very pendulous). The teat size scores range from 9 (very small) to 1 (very large). The AICA udder scores are submitted either online or by printed forms for the AICA Registration Form & Weaning Worksheet. Figure 1 summarizes the scoring system. Figure 2 illustrates the AICA data entry form for reporting udder scores. CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

PERFORMANCE RECORDS AND GENETIC PARAMETER ESTIMATES

.90 genetic correlation. The high genetic correlation indicates these two traits are somewhat controlled by the same genes. Known to be moderately heritable, udder quality genetic parameters have been quantified and breeding values published as expected progeny differences (EPDs) for the American Hereford Association animals. Bradford et al. (2015; J. Anim. Sci. 2015.93:2663) reported heritability estimates of .32 and .28 for udder suspension and teat size, respectively. The genetic correlation was reported to be .81 in the Hereford data.

Charolais breeders have collected over 84,000 individual udder suspension and teat size scores. For the current report dataset, average phenotypic means were 6.1 for udder suspension and 6.3 for teat size based on the 1 to 9 system. The AICA udder performance records were edited for contemporary group size, pedigree completeness, and scoring system errors. The edited dataset of 66,653 scores represented 31,114 females, since breeders collected repeated records on individuals over time. Figure 3 depicts the distribution of scores for the udder and teat traits. Udder traits were analyzed in a multi-trait animal model genetic evaluation with repeated udder score records. As an overview, the mathematical model accounted for the age of the female measured, contemporary group differences, and permanent environment effects for multiple scores on females. Variance component analysis produced heritability estimates of .25 and .23 for udder suspension and teat size. These two traits where highly correlated, with a

GENETIC EVALUATION FOR UDDER QUALITY TRAITS IN CHAROLAIS

Once the AICA udder suspension and teat size genetic parameters were estimated, the national cattle evaluation procedures were constructed based upon the previously described multi-trait animal model. Over 75,000 EPDs were produced from the genetic evaluation using the edited udder score dataset and a three-generation pedigree. Animal genotypes were not included in the research evaluation. Table 1 presents the descriptive statistics for the suspension and teat size EPDs and accuracy. Figure 4. Example of two Charolais sires with udder trait EPDs.

Figure 5. AICA Charolais Udder Suspension and Teat Size Genetic Trend.

Figure 4 illustrates the hypothetical comparison of two sires with udder trait EPDs. Assuming both sires have similar accuracies, Sire A would be expected to have daughters with more favorable udder suspension and teat size at calving than daughters of Sire B. The magnitude of difference between the two sets of future daughters’ expected scores would be about a half score favoring Sire A, based upon the nine-point scoring system. Much of the udder score reporting by Charolais breeders has occurred since 2005, as submitted in their performance weaning worksheets. With the sizeable udder database, reasonable genetic parameters, and a research genetic evaluation to create EPDs, a snapshot of the genetic trend for udder traits was prepared. Figure 5 depicts the genetic trend for the two trait EPDs. The lines are derived by plotting the average

EPD by animal birth year. While not extreme, the trend lines illustrate a favorable improvement in the average genetic prediction in more recent birth years. Through performance record reporting by AICA breeders, a large dataset of udder suspension and teat scores were available to estimate genetic parameters and generate selection tools for traits not readily accessible in many beef cattle breeds. The efforts by AICA to provide this research resource further generates interest in Charolais cow traits as well as accessibility to future selection tools for seedstock and commercial beef producers.

Listening and Learning Session in Blacksburg, VA

Individual Performance Data Adds Value to Genetic Testing by Linda Eck

riving home the importance individual performance data plays in the world of genomics, Sally Northcutt, Ph.D., with Method Genetics LLC and consultant to the American International Charolais Association, spoke vividly to attendees of this summer’s Listening and Learning Session about the value of collecting and reporting weights, measures other production data to gain a more accurate picture of genetic capabilities. “Don’t forget about the backbone of information that goes into your genetic tools,” Northcutt told the crowd of commercial and purebred Charolais breeders who made the trek to Blacksburg, Va. for the association’s second annual event. Promoting the AICA’s Single-Step Genetic Evaluation program, she said breeders attain the most value from their genetic testing when performance data and pedigree are included with DNA results. Single-Step Evaluation Combines Performance and Genetic Data Continuing to emphasize performance data matters, Northcutt explained that individual performance data can be tied into the SNP genotypes obtained from DNA samples and incorporated into more accurate Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) for use by both purebred breeders and commercial cattle producers. “In the advent of DNA technology and the excitement of 48 

growth in this area, we sometimes get so caught up in the DNA hype we forget that performance information you’re submitting to the association is extremely critical, particularly with the new approaches and new models that are utilized to generate your EPDs,” said the geneticist. “It’s a very straight forward analysis in terms of incorporating those genotypes into EPDs directly,” she told the group, referencing the Single-Step Genetic Evaluation released by the association in December of 2017. “It’s very modern and industry relevant,” she continued, noting that contributing factors include genotype information from DNA samples, typically four generations of pedigree information, individual performance data and progeny data. EPDs provided to breeders through the association’s National Cattle Evaluation (NCE), include these four components. Increased accuracy depends on both genetic and environmental information. “Genomic testing provides an additional piece of information to enhance the reliability of your EPDs,” said Northcutt. “You’ll get an accuracy bump from that additional test, adding value and relevance to the predictions in characterizing your cattle. Aside from DNA testing, Northcutt said, “It’s critical that environment be included in performance data submitted,” referencing non-genetic components such as creep feed, management, age of dam, etc., as parts of what she called continued on page 82 JOURNAL

Cowtown is the only fitting place to offer this female’s first flush to the public! Her maternal granddam, Creek Cut Greta 576, is an impressive individual still at 13 years of age in the Ridder donor program. 576 is the rare combination of power and performance along with calving ease! Sired by Grid Maker and out of the former Reserve National Champion Female, RLL Goin’ Places. Now on to Greta 7022’s dam, RF Greta 96Z. Derek believes she was the most impressive female to ever walk the pasture at Ridder Farms and a former sale topper! 96Z garnered her fair share of accolades on the tanbark as well. She was sired by the National Champion Fire Water and she never lost her division at the majors including Junior National and was named 2013 MO State Fair Champion Female! Unfortunately, she was lost at a young age to an accident and she had few calves. RF Greta 7022 is one Derek feels is going to continue this great cow family and replace Greta 96Z. Greta 7022 was named the 49th National Calf Champion in Denver competing against an outstanding set of calves. She is a physically impressive individual, so good in her shoulder, an incredible build and a bold rib cage design. You would be hard pressed to find a bigger bellied bovine than this one. This is a female that can fit the bill for whatever your program’s goals are. Study her design, study her pedigree, but don’t be caught sitting on your hands when this one enters the auction ring! Greta 7022 is entered in the show and will be on display in Ft. Worth. Guarantee of 6 embryos with a cap of 10. Anything above 10 will be split between buyer and seller.

M&M Ms Stealth 9509 Pld has a legacy to boast. Despite grabbing the attention of every visitor to the legendary M&M Charolais herd, her moment in the national spotlight didn’t arrive until she was selected as Pick of the Herd by Polzin Cattle. Her choice in the 36th National Charolais Sale commanded $20,000 as Chris held off contending bidders. Since becoming a key donor for Polzin Cattle, 9509 has M&M Ms Stealth 9509 Pld ET – Flush sells as Lot 4 captured the interest of cattlemen nationwide and her progeny have garnered top dollars. Half interest in 9509 commanded $45,000 at the 2017 Embryos on Snow Sale in Denver to Grand Hills of Colorado. Not only does she have the phenotype and reputation, she has a pedigree dominated by powerhouses of the breed. Her sire, DR Stealth 574, is a Reserve National Champion bull who himself sold for $27,000 in the National Charolais Sale and went on to sire countless proven females for M&M Charolais. Her dam is none other than the famous Baldridge Sweetheart 7M, whose influence can be seen throughout the breed and most recently made famous by Wright Charolais. But it doesn’t stop there – her EPD profile ranks in the top 6% WW, 7% Milk, 15% YW and 2% Mtl. Take advantage of this tremendous flush opportunity in a truly special female.

Wakefield Farms Family Farming Since 1937 — Charolais Seedstock Since 1962 A name you can trust for Performance Tested Charolais and Red Angus Bulls

For today’s bull buyers, there is a tremendous amount of “Fluff” to sort through when choosing who to buy bulls from. We try to stick to the facts! Fact 1 – NO ONE has produced more Charolais bull test winners in the Midwest than us! Fact 2 – A true measure of your cattle is putting them in a centralized test and comparing them against other cattle. This is where performance data is most accurate (not on farm tests). If you are looking for bulls that are bred to be tough, built to last, with second to NONE dispositions and backed by 50+ years of strict culling with Performance Data, not “Fluff,” give us a call!

Value • Versatility • Profitability “When I go to a bull sale, I want to be highly prepared. I study every bull in the catalog. The easiest way to start the process is to use the AICA Terminal Sire Index. TSI gives me a quick review already in monetary form. I can quickly determine the bulls that I have interest in. I then study the bulls’ individual data. I am most interested in yearling weight, ribeye and marbling. Of course, I never sacrifice calving ease. Calving ease is a nonnegotiable prerequisite. We’ve certainly gotten a good payback from our investment in Charolais.”

continued from page 48 the nuisance variation. “We want to account for these appropriately.” “The SNP genotype actually augments or fills in some of the gaps,” said Dr. Northcutt. “It helps us differentiate between embryo transfer calves, for example. With a paper pedigree we think on the average they have half their genes in common, but realistically it might be a little more or less than that. Fitting the SNP genotypes gives us the refinement to improve the reliability of genetic predictions.” The Single-Step system simultaneously combines information - phenotype weights and measures in proper contemporary groups, pedigree from an ancestral basis as well as a genomic pedigree. “A nice bonus is that when this information is available, parentage can be checked as well,” she said. “That is an added bonus available to you from the association.” Performance Data Keeps Breed Moving Forward “My big message to you today is that performance data matters,” Northcutt said. “We still want that data and I can’t encourage you enough to do that.” She then told the group that in reviewing association data she observed a weak spot in terms of producers turning in yearling weights and data. “That would be particularly important,” she said, noting earlier discussion in the session by both Tonya Amen, Ph.D., and Bain Wilson, Ph.D., that included mature cow size and bull selection tools. “Those growth traits are moderately to highly heritable. In moving forward and growing the depth of your breed association database it would be nice to step up the yearling weight component and even futuristically collect some young female weights and cow weights as well.” She also noted ultrasound scan data is important as well as individual harvest data. Both become economically relevant with ultrasound data an indicator of carcass merit. Giving attendees a look into the future, Northcutt shared the association’s efforts to create EPDs for docility and udder development. Docility is 30 to 40 percent heritable according to Northcutt and has “a tremendous economic impact throughout the industry that carries through to harvest.” Breeders submitting data are asked to provide a score of 1 to 6 based on Beef Improvement Federation guidelines. These chute scores are taken on weaned calves with one being the most favorable.

This data can also be submitted online or on reporting forms provided by the association “There is no data now to determine that genetic component,” said Northcutt, “but we can begin to ramp up on some data collection.” New trait development is also in the works for udder quality, which Northcutt said is “about 25 percent heritable.” She indicated that the AICA currently has over 40,000 observations for udder suspension and teat size as breeders continue to periodically report information. With assistance of breeder data reporting, there’s “some nice research going on at the association.” Proper Data Reporting is Key to Success “Never before have I seen performance records become as important as now, since we’ve moved to this advanced SingleStep model,” said Northcutt, who also noted that the key to success is in proper data reporting. Performance data must be reported in proper contemporary groups of animals managed and treated alike and exposed to the same conditions. Northcutt urged producers to think through their contemporary groupings with questions such as - Were those cattle managed and treated alike? What is the breed composition of recipient females? Contemporary groups should be of the same sex, managed alike, treated alike, exposed to the same environmental conditions, share the same birth year and season, weigh dates, management and pasture codes. Noting that proper grouping is very important, Northcutt told attendees, “Not all groups are created equally. Even the same ranch can have different environments.” She also pointed out that groups of one do not contribute to the genetic prediction system and are edited out. In order to stay current with AICA NCE updates she encouraged producers to stay informed of association deadlines for submitting data. Those dates are available on the association website or by calling the association. “Familiarize yourself and plan,” she said in encouraging the group to be proactive in reporting data. “It will enhance the reliability of EPDs. You have a wealth of cattle evaluation tools at your fingertips to put into place to make genetic progress. Don’t overlook the importance of performance information.”

Listening and Learning Session in Blacksburg, VA

Beneﬁts of Maternal Heterosis and Sire Selection Tool Evolve from Use of Performance Data by Linda Eck

he value of performance data was echoed by two other speakers during the 2018 Listening and Learning Session held July 14 in Blacksburg, VA. Weaving a common thread throughout the program, the wealth and value of information provided from the collection of individual performance data was evident in presentations by Tonya Amen, Ph.D., geneticist with the National Center for Beef Excellence and Bain Wilson, Ph.D., representing the Virginia Tech Department of Animal and Poultry Sciences. The Value of Maternal Heterosis Addressing an often overlooked topic, Amen spoke to the use of heterosis and the importance of maternal traits for designing the optimum breeding program. In addition to heterosis, Amen focused on the importance of milking ability and mature size. “Using hybrid vigor from crossbreeding for increased performance,” Amen said commercial producers can find value in a crossbred female. “Of course one of the main benefits is breed complementarity – taking advantage of the strengths of two or more breeds and combining those into a marketable and profitable product,” explained Amen. “The other benefit, of course is hybrid vigor. And there’s a lot of emphasis placed on the benefit of having a crossbred calf, which we refer to as direct hybrid vigor, which translates into increased weaning and yearling weights, calf survivability … things of that nature.”

J A N U A R Y 2019

“One of the components that has been lower on the priority list in terms of discussion is maternal hybrid vigor,” added Amen. “That is the benefit to calves from having a crossbred dam and again, those increases in calf survivability to weaning, longevity in the cows themselves, plus an added benefit from the growth side for both weaning and yearling.” Amen outlined the advantages of hybrid vigor as: 1. Most important for survival and reproduction traits 2. Tends to be increased for breeds genetically different from each other 3. Tends to be proportional to the degree of heterozygosity 4. Especially important for female productivity (maternal ability and reproduction) “The Charolais breed fits very nicely into the direct hybrid vigor situation in that much of the nation’s cow herd is a very British base,” she added. “In some cases a very Angus base, and others that may be a crossbred base. Injecting the Charolais breed into those situations benefits greatly from a breed complementarity standpoint as the Charolais brings in growth and efficiency and muscle shape that British breeds tend to lack.” She also noted that in some cases using Charolais genetics can help avoid genetic conditions, foot structure and disposition problems that otherwise may be an issue. In addition to attaining the benefits of hybrid vigor that comes from having a crossbred calf, Amen also noted that in

CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

some cases, commercial producers selling those smoky colored steers might want to consider keeping the F1 females. She noted the following values of a crossbred female to include: • Hit puberty earlier • Come back into estrus earlier • Last 1.7 years longer • Excel in most other measures of fertility “In many of the Charolais families we can find mature cow sizes just as moderate as what you’ll find in some of the British breeds; birth weights have been held constant, and from a genetic progress standpoint, foot structure is good,” said Amen. “So, you have all of those benefits, plus getting the maternal hybrid vigor that’s so valuable to commercial cattlemen. I think all of these together add up to more opportunities for commercial cattlemen to consider using Charolais genetics.” Bull Buying Selection Guide for Cow/Calf Operations Outlining nine steps in the bull selection process, Wilson encouraged attendees to “find the right bull for your situation,” noting that most genetic progress is made through sire selection. The nine steps include: 1. Identify herd goals 2. Assess herd strengths and weaknesses 3. Establish selection priorities 4. Utilize selection tools 5. Establish benchmarks 6. Do your homework 7. Find a source 8. Have a look 9. Make a sound investment “Optimize performance within available resources to keep input costs in check,” said Wilson, who focused a large portion of his presentation on using Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) and navigating what EPDs to use depending on herd

goals. “Address your biggest weakness first,” Wilson said, noting that key traits for most cow/calf operations include reproduction, longevity and stayability; calving ease; growth; maternal calving ease; milk, and carcass merit. He did caution producers not to select for above average milk if feed is limited. “Balanced selection will make genetic progress in multiple traits,” he added. “If you select for only one trait it may negatively affect four or five others.” “Take advantage of crossbreeding,” he said. “Heterosis is one of the few things that are free.” He noted the power of heterosis is maximized in an F1 female when using terminal, breed complementary bulls. Heterosis is lost with hybrid bulls. Additionally, performance data, especially when used with genomically-enhanced EPDs created through the new SingleStep system provides more accurate information for making sire selection decisions. “Look at the percentile tables and use the Charolais Terminal Sire Index,” said Wilson. “You can feel comfortable when using high accuracy bulls because you know more about what you have.” When establishing EPD specifications, Wilson suggested producers, “optimize vs. maximize” their selections. “Do your homework and select priorities,” he advised. “If you’re a seedstock producer don’t neglect marbling and carcass value traits. Check on phenotype – feet, legs and structure.” He then noted heritability of phenotypic traits include: • Stature – 60 percent • Body length – 39 percent • Rear legs and hock set – 12 percent • Foot pastern angle – 13 percent “Don’t underestimate the value of a good bull,” he concluded. “Do the math, based on a five-year use of a bull. Genetics are an investment with long term implications.”
