Black Angus Camaro: The Balanced Performance Breeders often ask what is Balanced Breeding and how does it benefit me? Semex has long stood by its proven Balanced Breeding Philosophy, which bases genetic selection on a combination of several traits including phenotype, structural soundness, performance, maternal strength and efficiency. By only selecting balanced genetics for our own breeding program, Semex ensures that our customers get the highest quality genetics without sacrifice.
Camaro’s pedigree combines the proven performance and calving ease predictability of Final Answer with the maternal strength of his Peacemaker dam, who produced another phenomenal bull calf in 2010. S A V First Class 0207, a maternal brother to Camaro, was the chart topping bull calf at this year’s Schaff Angus Valley sale, selling two-thirds semen interest with no possession for $265,000. Due to Camaro’s exceptional balance, he has the unique ability to sire the next generation of highly maternal replacement heifers while also producing performance topping bull calves.
S A V Camaro 9272 is a prime example of the Semex Balanced Breeding Philosophy at its best. Camaro was a standout Final Answer son at the 2010 Schaff Angus Valley Sale, where he was he was admired for his natural muscle expression, exceptional depth and structural soundness. Camaro has gone on to be one of the breed’s most balanced sires with an incredible 0.7 BW EPD to 109 YW EPD spread. He also ranks at the top of the breed for practically every EPD including CED, BW, WW, YW, SC, CEM and MILK.

RED Angus
with Style, Performance and Balance structure, incredible depth, balanced numbers and eye appeal, ensure Honky Tonk will make an impression in 2011. Honky Tonk’s sire, Red Lazy MC Cowboy Cut 26U, was the Reserve Champion Bull at the 2010 National Western Stock Show (NWSS) in Denver, Colorado, and is now a herd sire at Lazy MC Angus. Cowboy Cut has proven himself to sire incredibly sound and soft-made progeny, with his daughters being unbelievably feminine and stylish. Honky Tonk’s dam, RED YY Patty 701T, is an amazing female that is phenotycially correct, moderately framed with a perfect udder and a great set of feet and legs. Adding to his appeal, Honky Tonk is the first Red Lazy MC Cowboy Cut 26U son on the market. In January 2011 Semex Beef teamed up with Lazy MC Angus and A-1 Land & Cattle to offer an incredibly unique opportunity at the NWSS Reds On Ice Sale in Denver, offering US semen rights for Red Lazy MC Honky Tonk 11X as Lot #1 in the sale. Honky Tonk was on display in the yards the week leading up to the sale, where he was rightfully admired for his incredible thickness and generated a lot of attention from breeders. This semen package ended up being one of the sale’s highest selling lots, at $10,000 to Alberta’s Roy Angus. RED LAZY MC HONKY TONK 11X SEMEN WILL BE AVAILABLE LATER IN 2011. REMEMBER TO CHECK THE SEMEX BEEF WEBSITE REGULARLY FOR AVAILABILITY UPDATES.

Hereford Canadian Genetics in Kazakhstan CANADA IS HOME TO SOME OF THE WORLD’S TOP HEREFORD GENETICS. BALANCED BREEDING PROGRAMS PROVIDE INTERNATIONAL BREEDERS WITH PROVEN PERFORMANCE, GROWTH, EFFICIENCY AND MATERNAL STRENGTH COMBINED WITH THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF POLLED PEDIGREES. SO IT WAS NO SURPRISE WHEN BREEDERS IN KAZAKHSTAN WERE LOOKING TO IMPROVE THEIR CURRENT BREEDING PROGRAMS THAT THEY TURNED TO THE STRENGTH OF CANADIAN HEREFORD GENETICS. Kazakhstan, officially the Republic of Kazakhstan, is a transcontinental country located in Central Asia and Eastern Europe. Ranked at the ninth largest country in the world, Kazakhstan became an independent country when the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. During this time however the country sadly saw a great decline in its cattle population going from approx. 38 million head in 1994 to a mere 2 million head in 2011. This has resulted in up to 70% of their meat now having to be imported. In order to improve the countries agricultural sector, the government has now placed funding in place to see improvements to the Kazakhstan beef industry, both through improved management and improved genetics. Over the past year the country has imported several loads of live cattle as well as invested in the importation of semen, with over 35,000 doses being shipped in 2010. Sires selected for use in Kazakhstan include Circle-D 32P Speed 59S, Elm-Lodge Upper Cut 20U, Glenlees CL 151L Rigid 23P,
McCoy Powerhouse 77P and McCoy 55M Absolute 49S. This was based on each sire’s ability to provide proven balance genetics that combine performance, maternal strength, easy fleshing, efficient, and polled genetics. Kazakhstan has also invested in assistance to help improve herd management. In the past cattle have been roaming and feeding off the land, with no fencing and very little herd management, as most herds do not castrate or dehorn. With the importation of cattle and improved genetics to the country, North American producers have partnered with Kazakhstan in order to teach them proper herd management including herd health, AI breeding, feedlot nutrition and breed development. Though this will be a long term project, Kazakhstan is well underway to improving their beef industry and we look forward to continuing to support them in their continued growth and improvement. 11

Merit Roundup 9508W “The first of our Roundup calves have started to arrive and are already showing a lot of future. They have some bone, are nice headed, with good hair and look like they will really grow. We have had 2 calves born out of heifers and 4 from older cows, all unassisted. We really like this bull and look forward to the rest of his calves coming.” Darwin Rosso, Rosso Charolais

The Power of Balanced Breeding Posthaven Polled Urban Cowboy Posthaven Polled Urban Cowboy is a great example of a sire that meets Semex’s rigorous selection criteria. He has been referred to as perhaps one of the breed’s most phenotypically correct bulls. This is due to his exceptional muscle expression, incredible depth, notable thickness, structural soundness and overall balance. All this, combined with his power-packed pedigree and the fact that he is a homo polled fullblood, make Urban Cowboy a unique, balanced and powerful sire package.
“We received our first two calves sired by Urban Cowboy. The first was an 85 lbs bull calf off one of our mature polled cows and the second was a 75 lbs heifer off a first calf homo polled heifer. The calves are doing well and look great! ”
John Post, Posthaven Limousin
