SGBI Expected Progeny Differences
Expected Progeny Differences, EPDs, are the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the SGBI database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure (plus or minus) for each trait being evaluated and are calculated utilizing pedigree and performance information. SGBI is a leader in the adoption and implementation of cutting-edge genetic technology. In 2013, SGBI released the first genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (DNA verified) for Bos indicus-influenced cattle. The inclusion of DNA into the breed’s EPD calculations (GE-EPDs) has resulted in information that is more accurate and predicable than a pedigree and performance prediction alone. The association has access to thousands of performance verifying DNA samples. In addition, to being the first Bos indicusinfluenced breed to offer GE-EPDs, SGBI was the first beef breed to implement single-step methodology for the incorporation of BW WW genetic information into the genetic evaluation. This approach maximizes use of data reported on all animals throughout the pedigree and greatly improves the EPD accuracy.

SGBI Indices
SGBI offers three selection indices for cattleman use. Indices are multi-trait selection tools designed to assist cattle producers by adding simplicity to genetic selection decisions. Indices provide an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires in the database if the sires were randomly mated to cows and the calves were exposed to the same environment. SGBI’s indices provide performance insight to 3 beef production business models. The results are reported as a percentile ranking for each index.
Balanced Index: This index assumes that producers are keeping replacement heifers from the bulls they purchase. It further assumes that producers are either 1) marketing carcasses on the grid or 2) that buyer of their feeder calves base pricing on feedlot and carcass performance. This selection tool is designed to assist cattlemen who retain ownership through the feeding phase or market their calf crop to buyers focused on feedlot performance and/or carcass quality. Cow/Calf Index: This index assumes that producers are keeping replacement heifers form the bulls they purchase. However, it assumes all calves are marketed at weaning or soon thereafter. It further assumes that feeder calf buyers don’t base decisions on feedlot or carcass performance, making these traits less relevant to profitability. Producers marketing their calf crop at weaning, by the pound, would utilize this index when making selection decisions.
Terminal Index: This index assumes that producers are not keeping replacement heifers from the bulls they purchase. It assumes that producers are marketing carcasses on the grid, making carcass traits relevant to their business. This index fits operations using Santa Gertrudis bulls as terminal sires and retaining ownership of the calf crop through the feeding phase.

FEED EFFICIENCY
Red Doc Farm is one of the only cattle operations in the country currently offering an actual cost of gain on each individual bull. Our calculations are generated off our actual average feed cost “per pound as fed” at $180/ton. The COG (cost of gain) calculations are based off Grow Safe generated average daily gain (ADG), dry matter intake (DMI), and days on feed extrapolated over a 200 day feeding period.

You can’t manage what you don’t measure.
What is the value of efficiency?
Producing cattle that can be successful from the mountain tops, river valleys, calving pastures, feedyards and variable climates and conditions can be challenging. Developing a pathway for success is paramount and providing information on each animal has become a necessity. But the simple true is you can’t manage what you don’t measure” and at Red Doc we believe in measuring our genetics for performance.
We’ve been measuring cattle, for Feed Efficiency since 2017, with the Vytelle “Sense” – Grow Safe technology to help us increase genetic potential in RFI, to correspond with our other trait management.
Why measure?
• Feed costs account for approximately 70% of production costs • It is possible to reduce feed costs by 10-15% • Residual Feed intake (RFI) has been shown to be 35-40% heritable • We can back up our claim to providing “DATA Driven” results and back those results up. • Breeding Sires are selected for Low RFI. • Replacement Heifers are selected out of our annual calf crop. Years of efficiency focused breeding has provided us with pedigrees that are saturated in generations of efficiency.
RFI is an important part of our genetic selection…. Creating more efficient animals with better predictability. RFI is the measured difference between what an animal was expected to intake for a given level of production for maintenance and growth, and the actual feed consumed. Low RFI cattle are efficient because they eat less than expected. While high RFI cattle are inefficient because they eat more than expected. Low RFI cattle can reduce... Feed intake by 12% or more Methane production by up to 30% NPK by up to 17%
Red Doc Farm is one of the only cattle operations in the country currently offering an actual cost of gain on each individual bull. Our calculations are generated off our actual average feed cost “per pound as fed” at $253.43/ton. The COG (cost of gain) calculations are based off Grow Safe generated average daily gain (ADG), dry matter intake (DMI), and days on feed extrapolated over a 200-day feeding period.
Red Doc is creating Genetics that meet the challenge of a growing global protein demand. Selecting genetics using Vytelle Sense and Insight Technology that are efficient and are environmentally sustainable. Finally, they are committed to producing genetics the provide greater economic returns for their customers. Sires like Red Doc En Vivo 8343 exemplify this effort. Genetics that provide Industry leading residual feeding intake and average daily gain in the Vytelle Insight Database while providing choice beef in a sustainable manner. In the end it’s about driving profitability, predictability, and sustainability.
I believe last year’s sale catalog letter started off with something about the commitment Red Doc Ranch has placed on data collection…and the value bull buyers should place on it. If you’ve read this far, rest assured that the pages that accompany this letter are the best this industry has to offer given the market climate we are enduring. Over the past 12 months, I have regularly checked two sources of information: the US Drought Monitor, and the grain markets. Quite frankly, neither have been particularly rosy for the beef industry. However, if there ever was a time in history to be resilient with your genetic selection, it’s now!
Without question, cattle that can ‘do more with less’ have never offered more value to the beef industry than they do today. Let’s do some cowboy math: if it takes 100 bushels of corn to finish a feedlot steer, that’s $750 in today’s market. A 10% reduction in Dry Matter Intake (DMI) would make that same steer consume 90 bushels of corn worth $675. That’s a feed cost savings of $75 per head. Multiply that over 20 head per year ($1,500) for 4 years owning the bull, and you’ve saved $6,000 on steer progeny alone. Coupled with that, the research suggests that the same bull’s daughters will consume less forage, stretching hay and pasture supply for the same level of maternal performance. The addition of Grow Safe feed efficiency data to this set of bulls in 2019 could not have come at a better time!
I’ve been analyzing the information collected from Red Doc Ranch since 2015, attempting to present buyers the information they demand…in a form they can understand. The Red Doc Ranch team shows you every data point they collect! That being said, I would still urge potential buyers to use EPDs at the forefront of their selection process when they are available. They are still the best tool in the box for evaluating genetics. The top end of these bulls are incredibly efficient, numbers that would compete with elite genetics in other breeds collecting the same information. As usual, the carcass attributes of Red Doc bulls are unprecedented in the Santa Gertrudis breed; they can grade Choice or better, have muscle, and all within a window of acceptability on fat cover. Best of luck to the Red Doc crew, the beef industry certainly appreciates your efforts.

Project update: Utilizing the Santa Gertrudis breed as a model for Critically Evaluating Heterosis in Intermountain West Beef Systems Dr. Matthew Garcia Utah State University Beef Specialist
When I was approached to write an update on the SGBI and Utah State University heterosis collaboration, I was somewhat surprised that this collaboration is now going into its fifth year! The original intent of this project was to reintroduce an evidence based heterosis project to the industry as well as identify or dispel any concerns that there may have been in using the Santa Gertrudis (SG) breed in a crossbreeding program. Since the inception of this project we have seen dramatic increases in weaning weights, efficiency in the feedlot and increases in carcass quality and composition. In this article I will briefly describe some of the projects and results in which Santa Gertrudis are being utilized.
Feedlot, Implant and Mineral Studies:
One of the original intents of this study was to evaluate how Santa Gertrudis influenced cattle would perform in the feedlot. In year two we found that Santa Gertrudis cattle were using 13% less feed to get to finishing than their Angus (AN) influenced counterparts. I’m happy to say that we have finished two more groups of steers and that number has remained the same. As a result of these feeding trials it was decided that Santa Gertrudis cattle would also be involved in a implant study in which cattle received no implant, one implant, two implants. Results of the implant study revealed that there was no significant difference in gain between SG and AN that were implanted and no significant difference in non-implanted steers. Furthermore, there was almost an $80 economic incentive to implanting versus not implanting SG steers. A second study is currently being completed that looks at multiple implant effects on feedlot performance and carcass quality.
Carcass Studies:
Another major objective of this study was to evaluate how SG influenced steers would compare in regards to carcass quality and composition. We have currently collected carcass data on two years of steers and the results are promising. There was no discernable difference in marbling scores between AN and SG steers. However, AN steers marbling scores seem to be more affected by implanting than SG steers and SG steers have averaged a 2.5 YG while AN steers have an average YG of 3.2. We are currently feeding another group and expect additional data this summer.
Disposition and environmental compatibility evaluation:
One of the initial concerns with Utah producers dealt with incorporating Bos Indicus genetics and the subsequent effects on temperament and the ability to deal with harsh northern Utah winters. When evaluating temperament, every trial that has been conducted has measured exit velocity out of the chute. Santa Gertrudis steers and AN steers have shown no significant difference in exit velocity and there have been no temperament issues noted by researchers or the farm crew. When evaluating environmental compatibility, there have been no issues calving or keeping calves alive when calving in February. Since the inception of the project there have been six SG calves lost during calving season, but none was due to temperature acclimation.
Cow Longevity and Performance
While this part of the project is still in its infancy, female longevity was a major issue that the project wanted to address. The idea was that by incorporating SG genetics into the herd, that we could potentially get more compatible genetic predisposition in a forage variable production environment and subsequently increased longevity due to the Brahman influence of the SG breed. At the present time, USU is still in the building phase of our SG female herd base. Currently, we have a group of F1’s that three year olds that are currently calving for the second time and a larger group of 2 year olds that are calving for the first time. As we go forward we will continue to incorporate replace F1 SG influenced heifers into the base herd. Unfortunately, due to drought and loss of leases last year the USU herd was slightly reduced. However, our ultimate goal is to have 50-60 high quality F1 females in the herd that we can track for an extended period of time to evaluate environmental compatibility, cow effect on calf performance and longevity.
Producer buy in and incorporation of Santa Gertrudis Genetics:
When this project began there was possibly 1 or two individuals using SG genetics in Utah. There was once again, a producer concern about incorporating SG genetics into their herds. As such a concerted effort was made to incorporate research findings of this project into extension programs statewide and regionally. To date this project has been presented in 16 counties and 9 zoom presentations at the regional or national level. As a result there has been a significant increase in the number of SG bulls being brought into Utah and the number of producers incorporating SG genetics into their herds.
Summary:
The collaborative efforts of USU and SGBI have been very beneficial and productive. Not only have the collaborating agencies benefitted, but producers in this region have also benefited by being re-introduced to heterosis and the benefits that SG cattle can bring to their operations. The current collaboration has addressed concerns producers had by producing and presenting scientific and empirical evidence of the benefits of incorporating SG genetics into a breeding program in the intermountain west. As such we hope to continue our collaboration to generate more evidence of SG benefits in a cow calf operation, feedlot, carcass characteristics and female longevity. Utah State University has already made a breeding plan to use SG genetics again this year and due to the benefits to production and research, we can envision using SG genetics well into the future.
