Important Notice to Vendors ARRIVAL OF STOCK - As per timetable of events (page 6).

PRE-SALE INSPECTION: “All animals (except in the case of bona-fide dispersals) are subject to pre-sale inspections by The Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society in order to establish identity and to prove a minimum standard. Such inspections however do not imply any liability or warranty by The Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society for animals sold, such liability remains the responsibility of the vendor. Animals are sold with all patent defects and any subsequent claim is against the vendor and not The Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society.”

CONDITIONS OF SALE: This sale is held subject to the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society’s Conditions of Sale, including the Terms and Conditions of Sale, incorporating Bull & Female Warranties (based on the National Cattle Breeders Association Warranties).

In order to defray the cost of implementing the warranty conditions a levy shall be charged to the vendor, for every pedigree animal sold – bulls £5, females £3. Each amount will be +VAT and will be charged to the relevant vendors’ account.

SHOW AND SALE - All bulls must be halter-led and rung. All females entered in the show section must be halter-led. Unled females will be sold at the end of the sale and, except in the case of bona fide dispersals, will be subject to the pre-sale inspections. Inability to properly inspect such unled females will automatically debar them from the sale.

IDENTIFICATION MARKS - The identification marks of all animals will be examined in the Sale Premises and any animal found to have faulty or illegible marks will be rejected from the Sale. Vendors are therefore recommended to check carefully the identification marks of all their entries WELL IN ADVANCE of the Sale, and to advise the Society in the event of any fault being found.

MINIMUM SELLING PRICE - There will be a Minimum Selling Price of 1500 guineas on each bull presented for sale - i.e. if no opening bid of 1500gs is received for any particular lot, that lot will be passed out of the ring unsold.

RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals. The auctioneers reserve the right to charge half commission on the amount of the final bid in the case of animals which fail to reach the Vendors reserve price.

All animals will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission of 5% will be charged by the Auctioneers on all sales. A further 1½% will be charged and paid as levy by them to the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society. No animals may be sold privately before being passed through the Auction Ring and FULL COMMISSION will be charged on the sale of any animal sold by private treaty after the auction. All such transactions MUST BE PASSED THROUGH THE AUCTIONEERS’ OFFICE. PRIZE MONEY: (but not trophies) will be withheld unless the winners are sold, either by auction or private treaty.

ERRORS & OMISSIONS - The Auctioneers can accept NO responsibility for any errors or omissions printed in this catalogue.

A VETERINARY CERTIFICATE MUST BE SUPPLIED FOR ANY ANIMAL NOT FORWARD FOR SALE. STRAW: A limited amount of bedding straw will be provided by the Auctioneers free of charge. Additional straw, if required, may be purchased from the Auctioneers.

UNDERSTANDING THE BREEDPLAN PERFORMANCE RECORDING INFORMATION IN THIS CATALOGUE Only Aberdeen-Angus GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can be validly compared between herds.

E STIMATED B REEDING V ALUES (EBV S )

The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.

A CCURACY

An accuracy value (Acc) is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives.

C ALVING E ASE

Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information.

More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny. Using a bull in the Top 1% for CE direct (+5.0) is predicted to result in approximately 15% fewer assisted calvings in 2 year old heifers compared with using a bull in the Bottom 1% (-10.8). This range is predicted to be smaller in cows.

Remember that the dam’s genetics and management are significant factors influencing calving ease in any mating.

DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.

B IRTH

AND

F ERTILITY

GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth.

BW T: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negative correlation with age of puberty in female progeny.

G ROWTH

M ILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves.

200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages.

400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.

600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

M W T: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age.

Smaller, or more moderate EBVs are generally more favourable.

1

12

C ARCASE

CW T: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days.

EM A: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals.

FAT: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase.

More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

RBY% : Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.

IM F% : Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intramuscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.

Indexes combine the EBVs with economic information for specific market and production systems to rank animals based on relative profit values.

Terminal index

The Angus Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Angus bulls over dairy cross cows to breed steers and heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. All progeny are destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 600 kg live weight (330 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system.

Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 16 months of age. The index is focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to breeding replacement females.

If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis on a higher Calving Ease Direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.

Self Replacing index

The Angus Self Replacing index is aimed at an Angus herd selecting replacement females from within the herd while breeding steers and excess heifers to turn off at 18 months of age. There is emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while also looking to finish steers for slaughter at around 615 kg live weight (330 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase.

This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Angus sires over mixed breed cows where replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour.

Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter.

The Aberdeen-Angus GROUP BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeders.

Neither the Aberdeen-Angus Cattle Society nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of this data.
