VIEWPOINT

CHAROLAIS Let’s keep the momentum going!

This partnership is working well!

he 2018 edition of the National Western Stock Show is in the books. And what an exciting week it was! We experienced record attendance during every Charolais event. More than 500 head of Charolais and Charolais-influenced cattle were entered in events “on the hill” and “in the yards”. There was standing room only during the pen show. We hosted exhibitors and guests from 30 states: from Florida to Washington, from California to Maryland, three Canadian provinces, Mexico and New Zealand. The 39th National Sale averaged $12,179. Interest and excitement for Charolais was unmistakable.

traffic caused us to rethink and expand over the years. This year, even the hospitality tent experienced record traffic. In the beginning, our goal was to provide a warm space to get in out of the weather and have a cup of coffee. Anyone that’s ever attended the NWSS will agree, finding a comfortable place to meet during the day, for business or pleasure, isn’t an easy task. Guests helped themselves to 1,500 cups of coffee during this year’s stock show. Five hundred cups were served on Friday and Saturday alone! Most involved in grassroots beef production will likely acknowledge that marketing isn’t a “first thought” every day. Beef producers’ first thoughts

That being said, from January 10, when we arrived at the NWSS until January 16, our social media posts touched more than 21,500 people! Charolais events were live streamed at www.LiveAuctions.tv and we took advantage of social media to relay show and sale results in near real time. The ability to communicate with an audience in near real time during important industry events is priceless. Does it sell bulls? It’s definitely difficult to quantify. But our collective efforts to keep top of mind awareness laser focused on Charolais and its influence on beef production does create a positive marketing environment, making the job of selling cattle this spring much easier. As a more “mature” adult, social media is still a strange phenomenon! The concept of free unlimited reach is hard to get one’s head around. That being said, from January 10, when we arrived at the NWSS until January 16, our social media posts touched more than 21,500 people! The social media posts showing 49th National Show winners had the largest response. Social media provided a platform for viewers to ask questions or make congratulatory comments. While it may still be a strange phenomenon, one thing is for sure, folks that can’t be there can still feel like being there. How cool is that? For the past several years, the AICA hospitality tent has occupied primo space in the yards. Attendance has always been good, particularly during those inevitable stock show nasty weather days. Fact is, our tent

this time of the year are making sure the ice is broken, the cows have plenty of nutrition to survive, calves are born alive and protected, tractors and feeding equipment work, what is Plan B if the spring rains don’t come— the list goes on. And no one suggests the thought process should be any different. It’s just how beef production works in the real world. However, there are entities that do think and act to market beef every day. In fact, marketing is an integral component in long range strategic plans across the entire beef industry complex. National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) through beef check-off, branded beef marketing programs working directly with the retail sector, global marketing entities continuing to negotiate trade agreements and solidify international relationships, all have marketing as their day jobs. Those Herculean efforts are measured by consumer demand for beef. AICA markets on behalf of members and non-members alike, focusing on the strength and relevance of Charolais genetics. One goal, every day, at AICA is to strive to create a positive marketing environment, regardless of geography or demographic in partnership with our members and the vast commercial sector. If the interest we experienced under the bright lights in a national exhibition of our product is any indication, this grand partnership is working well!

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.

The deadline to place advertising in the April 2018 Charolais Journal is Februray 25. Contact your field representative about these and other advertising opportunities. Export Your Data for your Sale Catalog

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. Make Plans to Attend the Spring 2018 Annual Membership Meeting

AICA will hold the 2018 Annual Membership Meeting, Committee Meetings and Board of Directors Meetings, March 25-26. A new location has been selected, Harrah’s North Kansas City. Refer to page 77 of this issue for more information. Year letter for 2018 is F.

Record your 2018 born calves using AICA’s online system. Add the data as the calves are born; continue to update the records as you add weaning and yearling data. Register the calves at any time by adding their name. Dues Reminder

Link Your Herd Management Package to AICA

AICA has launched a new service that provides the framework to allow on-farm herd management computer software to exchange data with the AICA office. By using this service, breeders can avoid entering data in to both their local software and AICA’s online system. The software package would send AICA the data. If you wish to take advantage of this new service, ask your software vendor to contact AICA.

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. Dispose of Animals

Dispose of animals you no longer have by using the online system. The disposal button is at the bottom of the “Quick Look” screen. DO NOT dispose of bulls still being used, regardless of their status. DO NOT dispose of animals you are selling with papers.

Madison Andrade, At Large Director

VIEWPOINT

JUNIOR

Get to Know Your Director! Interviewed by Abbee Carnes, Secretary

i everyone, my name is Madison Andrade and I am serving as this year’s Area 1 Director! I am currently a freshman 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 and major 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 cow/calf operation in the small town of San Juan Bautista, California and have been a member of the AIJCA since I was 5. Throughout the years, I have met many people and have shown a lot of cattle, but am so thankful for this breed and the people who make this organization great.

advantages are combined with better yield grades and quality grades.

Q: Who or what inspired you to become a board member and why?

A: Someone who inspired me to become a board member

was my uncle, Dustin Bush. I remember listening to stories about all of the cool places he got to visit and the many members he got to meet and it really made me want to give back to the breed that has given me so many opportunities. Becoming a part of the Junior Board was a true honor and I’m so blessed to be able to share my passion for the Charolais breed with others who feel the same way.

breed?

A: The Charolais breed is my foundation breed, having grown up on a large purebred operation on the central coast of California where we focus on raising competitive show heifers and bulls that will compete in the show ring as well as in the pasture. I had quite the input early on, being six years old and able to pick my own show heifers, with a little input from my family of course. I believe that having to make these sorts of decisions early on is what sparked my interest in cattle production, as well as continuing to pursue my passion for the Charolais breed as well as the livestock industry.

A: My first Junior Nationals was 2009 in Sacramento, California. I had just turned nine and was so excited that I was old enough to finally show on the national level. The friends that I had made in that week will definitely be my most cherished memory as I am still friends with them today and we still laugh about all of the trouble we caused. I participated in the photo contest, t-shirt making contest, fitting contest, quiz bowl, and showmanship contest where that year I was named Champion Junior Showman. I also had the honor of showing a couple division champions and reserve champions.

in many ways. Getting to meet many new people and hearing about their backgrounds has greatly impacted my life. Listening to what others have to say and their opinions on things have led me to become more open-minded, whether it be to new ideas, breeding decisions, or a variety of other ideas. Another important impact of the AIJCA is it has led me to become more outgoing. Growing up I used to be shy and of course I wanted to meet new people but that was something that used to hold me back. By going to many shows and competing in events, not only have I increased my public speaking skills, but I have also made many lifelong friends.

was quite an athlete in my younger days. Besides showing livestock, I played sports such as basketball, volleyball, tennis, golf, archery, track, softball, and swimming. These sports didn’t just help me with my competitive edge, but taught me more about teamwork, trust, and that hard work does yield results. Sports also taught me to take chances, because if you don’t take the chance of course you won’t fail, but you also won’t win.

Q:What do you think makes the Charolais breed appealing

cow herd, consisting of mainly Charolais cattle along with Simmentals, Herefords, and Angus, and would produce progeny that will contend on a local, state, and national level. In addition to cattle, I would also like to raise goats, sheep, and hogs, with the same intention of a high competitiveness in the ring. I would like to continue to advocate and promote the agricultural industry through my occupation and attend many national shows and leadership conferences.

to commercial cattlemen?

I believe that the Charolais breed is appealing to commercial cattleman in many ways as not only do they offer a lower birth weight and gain more pounds efficiently but their increased carcass weight, larger ribeye, and adequate marbling signify more pounds when sent to harvest. These 24 

This WC Milestone son will impressive all comers with his outstanding hip, build and structure. His equally impressive dam was in demand at our recent December 2017 Female Sale when she went across the auction block at $10,000 to PIBB Cattle Company in Texas. She was born 2-19-13 and has calved on 1-22-15, 1-15-16 & 1-10-17 with adjusted weaning weights of 820, 764 and this son at 790 lbs. What more could you want the dam of your next herd sire to do? Need more convincing? His maternal grand dam #9290 is also at the top level of performance, her last three bull calves weaned off with adjusted weaning weights of 751, 831 & 794 lbs.! There is weaning power in this pedigree tabulation. Selling 2/3 interest and full possession.

Talk about a unique offering, take a look at this one! This herd sire prospect is a son of WC Milestone and out of the dam of M6 Bells & Whistles 258! This bull was her natural born calf. He is young but has the mass and power you would expect from this cow family in a smoother package. Bells & Whistles once sold for $105,000 for a onehalf interest and then went on to sell over $250,000 of semen. Other sons of the dam of Stone Sour have sold for $23,000, $15,000, $22,000, $20,000 & $23,000, so you know the power is in this bloodline. And there is more monetary upside. A one-half interest in WC Milestone 5223 sold for $125,000. A one-half interest in Milestones maternal brother WC Executive 6211 sold for $110,000 and the paternal grand sire WC Benelli 2134 a one-half interest sold for $50,000. This is a proven genetic jackpot! Presented with Wild Indian Acres Selling 2/3 interest and full possession.

Experiences of Commercial Cattlemen

Add Insight to Listening & Learning Session

by Linda Eck

eminiscing about everything past experiences that included childhood memories, drought and proverbial quotes from grandma, three commercial cattlemen added lively discussion and valuable success stories to the AICA’s inaugural Listening and Learning session held last fall in Ardmore, Okla. The three cattlemen were at home at the Noble Research Institute, as they all maintain a working relationship with the Institute in ongoing eﬀorts to position their cow/calf operations for added profit and eﬃciency. Another common denominator of the group was the increased value they have experienced through the use of Charolais genetics. Cattlemen bringing their years of experiences to the table were Max Martin of the JX Ranch in Loving, Texas; Barron Kidd of Dallas, Texas, and Rusty Daniel with Wood Ranch located near Wapanucka, Okla.

Marbling – Marbling – Marbling!

Supported by slides filled with performance data and a strong handle on the value of EPDs and genetic testing, Max Martin told the crowd, “I’ve really started marbling too late in the

program.” Raising a terminal calf on his forage-based cow/calf operation in Loving, Martin maintains a herd that is predominantly Angus, with a few Black Baldies and Red Angus included. Calving spring and fall, he utilizes Charolais bulls twice a year and prefers to sell his calves “right oﬀ the ranch.” I try to produce a calf that will perform in the feedlot,” said Martin. “I want them to perform on the grid.” And, he has the records to know exactly how they do perform. Recognizing two major value chains – the feedlot and the consumer, Martin’s JX Ranch is focused on improving margins by aligning these chains to ensure profitability across the cycle. “I started on the yield side,” said Martin, who has yield and gain data on calf crops over several years; but is not necessarily happy with the outcome. “Grandma said, ‘Be careful what you ask for, you might get it.’” Martin reminisced. “Some years ago I said, ‘Well, we want a big ribeye.’ Now I’ve got it and now I have to figure out how to marble it.” Martin’s candid honestly about his program and proverbial

wisdom from grandma, drew a supportive round of laughter “This year I went to bull sales with $6,300 in my pocket from the group but also demonstrated his diligence toward ready to spend,” explained Martin. “Turns out I bought six bulls attaining his goals. at $6,100 and am happy with the EPDs. That’s how I try to “Marbling…that’s my second phase,” said Martin. “And, allocate my dollars on what I am willing to pay for a bull.” that’s the mistake I made, I started that a little bit too late.” Martin also value adds for cost of gain. Showing a listing of his bull battery to the audience, he “We keep our cost side in check with forage options and cow presented a breakdown of bull genetics with the Terminal Sire efficiency.” Noting the importance of timing when feedlots and Index. In regards to marbling he is using basically, three groups marketing are involved, he said it’s sometimes difficult to move of bulls: cattle to the feedlot when he has more cost-effective options on • Older bulls that are not very well marbled the ranch. His summary for the cost of gain includes: • Bulls in the 40-60 percentile range for marbling • 40-cents per pound for calves on forage • Newer bulls averaging about 16 percent • 67-cents per pound on a pre-conditioning ration Again reviewing his bull battery, newer bulls have a Terminal • 75-cents at the feedlot Sire Index ranging from 205 – 210. While the JX Ranch’s 520-cow herd is set up as a terminal “You can clearly see the trend that I am on with my bull program, Martin is looking at the possibility of raising his own purchases. EPDs are working,” said Martin. “I’ve certainly replacement females, something he hasn’t done in the past but is achieved all the yield I need, now we’re looking at refining that adding to his future list. carcass.” Hard Choices Give Way to New Reality Overall, Martin said he is reasonably pleased with the Hard choices during the drought left Barron Kidd’s ranch 50 carcasses he’s been selling. miles south of Dallas short on cows. With the use of Charolais “I have an objective to better align our calf quality with the bulls, he’s been able to add profitability by increasing yearling overall value of the market,” he added. “I happen to believe we weights as he works through the rebuilding process. have good domestic demand for quality…I want to be better “Because of Robert Wells (Ag Consultant at Noble Research aligned so I can take advantage of Choice – Select spreads.” Institute), I bought two Charolais bulls five or six years ago,” “I’ve used EPDs for 15 years said Kidd. “We now have 13 bulls and it’s been a very effective tool,” and 10 of them are Charolais. We’ve explained Martin. “They’re a little increased our weaning weights by complicated…you have to have almost 100 pounds in spite of the complete records.” fact I like to buy low birthweight “You run into people all the Noting the importance of the bulls, that’s my first criteria.” records in selling his cattle, he time that have the feed truck Currently running a black-based added, “You gotta have integrity cow herd of 265, down from the backing up to a creep feeder,” in your relationship with those more than 300 head he maintained said Daniel. “All you have to do feedlots…I basically sell my cattle prior to the drought, Kidd shared on the telephone now.

First noting the JX Ranch calves in large pastures, he said This learning experience made it easy for him to appreciate calving ease is a must. “I can’t be watching them.” Aside from the greater success he’s found with low birthweight Charolais that, “I principally look at yearling weight, ribeye and marbling” genetics. when selecting a bull. “The genetics of Charolais fit our program extremely well Based on a five year average and backed with data and charts, and we’re very pleased with the results,” said Kidd. “I really do Martin continued to explain his economics of bull buying. think the Charolais genetics have been a vast improvement over “From a revenue point of view I get about a quarter of a what we have experienced in the past.” million dollars out of a bull.” said Martin.

people for doing that.”

Added Pounds are Free!

Running Charolais bulls on black cows is not something Rusty Daniel envisioned as he was growing up, as a matter of fact, his first experience in the cattle business came at a young age and was the reason he came to loathe the breed he now praises for delivering added value to the cow herd at Wood Ranch in Wapanucka, Okla. “I’ve come full circle on that,” Daniel told the group in bringing his unique perspective to the session. “Over 40 years later, all we use are Charolais bulls.” “The reason we got back into Charolais after much angst, thought and guidance from Noble was for the free hybrid vigor pounds you get from crossbreeding,” said Daniel, who manages the Wood Ranch’s 400-plus cow herd in Johnson County. “They’re not created like they were 40 years ago,” said Daniel. “You can get a Charolais bull with a 2 calving ease or even higher that is just fine. I don’t spend a lot of time worrying about it, we check our cows regularly and we have very few calving issues. Wood Ranch follows the Integrity Beef Alliance protocol as supported by the Noble Research Institute. It was Evan Whitley, a livestock consultant with Noble, who first convinced them to

buy two Charolais bulls. “Since that time, we’ve gone to even using them on heifers,” said Daniel, who went on to explain his rationale. “If I have the same amount of inputs on a 1,200-pound cow – the same amount of fertilizer, the same amount of feed…I may as well get that extra 50-60 pounds – it’s free! If we don’t wean a 600pound calf, there’s something environmentally wrong.” “You run into people all the time that have the feed truck backing up to a creep feeder,” said Daniel. “All you have to do to take the place of creep feed is buy the right kind of bull. We look for bulls with upper EPDs for yearling weight and weaning weight. They’ll take the place of creep feed.” Daniel also noted that good management practices play an important role in how cattle are accepted by feedlots. “We’ve used the protocol of Integrity Beef so we know what our bulls are going to do,” said Daniel, adding that Wood Ranch has had success in marketing cattle through Cargill and has sold at El Reno and Oklahoma City. “They (Cargill) call every year, but we can’t always match up.” Additionally, “we put a lot of emphasis on marbling and carcass weights,” said Daniel. “Somebody is ultimately going to feed them and kill ‘em.”

Quantity vs. Quality

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take Quality every time.

At Rowan Ranch, Quality has always been our number one goal. With limited numbers, breeding for quality is our only option. Over 30 years of AI and selection pressure has left us with a nucleus that produces year in and year out. Bred and open females are available every fall. Heifers by Rushmore, Ledger, Venture, Landmark and Reward are currently available. Give us a call or stop by.

Value • Versatility • Profitability “Charolais cattle are extremely valuable in what we do every day. They perform, convert, get large and do well. The packers desire those cattle. When we put Charolais on the show list, there’s usually a lot of aggression, a lot of desire to own them for a couple of reasons. For one, the cutability is amazing. The cattle yield very well. There’s nothing more desirable in the industry than a black-nosed Charolais.” — Todd Sigmon, Manager • Dinklage Feedyards, Sidney, Nebraska Charolais Genetic Advancement Yearling Weight 2016 2006

Obituary

Glenn E. Turk, of Warren PA, passed away on Jan. 3, 2018, surrounded by his family after a brief illness. Glenn was born, Nov. 21, 1938, to the late Robert Lee and Viola Turk. He was proud of his service in the U.S. Air Force, serving “4 years, 3 months, and 13 days.” Following the service, Glenn worked at the National Forge Company for 35 years, retiring in 2000. Glenn proudly raised registered Charolais cattle, and was a two-time Pennsylvania “Conservation Farmer of the Year” award recipient. Glenn was an active member of the 4-H Clubs of Warren County and a past president of the Warren County Fair Board. Glenn is survived by his best friend and wife of 55 years, Carol Turk; son and daughter-in-law, Lee and Melissa Turk, of Warren; daughter, Lisa Turk, of Pompano Beach, Fla.; granddaughter and great-granddaughter, Cayla and Alivia Hoffman, of Russell, PA. Glenn is also survived by a brother, Gordon Turk, of Titusville, PA; sisters, Jean Gray, of Deltona, Fla., and Shirley Walker, of Cochranton, PA. In addition to his parents, Glenn was preceded in death by a sister, Lucille Warren; and brothers, Howard, Francis, Raymond, Charles, Bruce, and Ken. Per Glenn’s wishes, no visitation or services will be observed. Memorials commemorating Glenn’s life may be made to Hessel Valley Lutheran Church of Chandler’s Valley or St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. Obituary
