The state fair is right around corner! I know that is always my favorite part of the summer. This is where all you hard work finally pays off. You get to see and hang out with all your show buddies and friends you’ve met throughout the summer. I can’t imagine a better way of spending my summer then spending it with my livestock and friends who make it even better! We have decided to postpone the Leadership Conference. It will now be held in the fall along with the awards ceremony. Hope to see you there! • Submitted by Erin Greeley, MCCA Reporter

Showmanship Points by Division Oklahoma Club Calf Association - July 2011

As of this writing, it is 103 degrees and cracks in the ground big enough to loose a small baby. Oklahoma is as dry as I can remember in my 50+yrs. Please pray for rain for us Okies. Most of you are at Jr. Nationals or headed that way. Good luck and be safe!! Fall is just around the corner, and state fairs will be here before we know it. Again this year OCCA will sponsor the prospect show at Tulsa State Fair, and it sounds like we have lots of good sponsors. We are having a Miniature Hereford show for kids under 9 years old, so come to T-Town and watch. Also, we will have the Wanted Ones Sale again this year. We are still looking for consignments. If you have any, please contact our sale manager, Morgan Sheive, at 580-678-9620, and she will get you taken care of. Again, thanks to our Platinum sponsors: Purina, C&M Trailers, Cinch, and Cruel Girl. Without you, we could not exist. Be safe this summer, and please pray for rain. We are in a bind!! See you this fall!

The OCA BEST program promotes educating Ohio’s junior about beef industry issues, promotes family memberships and participation in the OCA, and rewards the successful accomplishments of the hard work of junior beef producers.

The joint venture was known as the southeast portion of Kansas near the Genetic Horizons which is still in the title town of Galesburg has been in operation of the lone remaining semen provider. since the 1970s. Don Coover, owner of the “Those guys would join all of their bulls company, has enjoyed the progression of

his business since purchasing it and looks forward to what technology will provide to the beef industry’s evolution.

together to make a sire directory, so they would have better selection and numbers,” Don says. “They traded semen back and forth so everyone would have access to the same bulls.” By 1995 there were only three members

left of Genetic Horizons, including: Vander Horn AI in South Dakota, Missouri Cattle Breeders in Missouri, and Southeast Kansas (SEK) Genetics. “I bought SEK Genetics 16 years ago from Jerry Kramer, and he was one of the original people in the Genetic Horizons deal,” Don says. Several years ago Vander Horn AI and Missouri Cattle Breeders both sold out to Semex, with neither of those businesses being associated with Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics anymore, because they are just shell corporations.

Duty Calls Don was a member of the class of 1969 at nearby Erie High School. Upon graduation he saw the writing on the wall of being drafted for service in the Vietnam War. Rather than wait to be drafted, he took an examination and was accepted into the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York. After graduating from West Point with a degree in civil engineering in 1973, he would serve in the U.S. Army for the next eight years. While in the Army he worked as a helicopter and airplane pilot. He was

also a military intelligence officer. Following his service in the military, Don had an ambition to get back to his agricultural roots. He was raised on a family farm that operated a dairy near Erie, Kan. His background in the dairy helped steer him to veterinary school at Kansas State University. After receiving his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 1986, Don would serve another two years for his country as an Army veterinarian.

Feeding His Interest Finally, after his years of military service, Don decided to plant his feet near his old stomping grounds in Galesburg, approximately 20 miles from his family’s farm. He would buy a feed mill located on the main drag of town and operate it with his brother. While managing the mill, Don continued to practice veterinary medicine. “My veterinary business was an ambulatory large animal practice that

between the pages was very closely tied to the feed mill,” he says. “I was basically helping clients do management-type stuff with their animals.” Then the opportunity arose for Don to purchase a semen distributor just down the road from the mill. Jerry Kramer offered to sell the business to Don and show him the ropes of the industry. Don was interested, but he needed a cross-country tour of Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics’ clients to make up his mind. “I basically took a motorcycle trip to some people he sold genetics to. I traveled all the way up to Montana on an old 1947 Indian Chief motorcycle,” Don remembers. He decided getting into the genetics industry might be an entertaining venture, so he sold his share of Coover Feed Company Inc. to his brother and bought out Kramer’s business. “It was an opportunity. I kind of had an interest, and the more I looked

471

into it the more interested I got, and that was it,” Don recalls. In 2006 he built a new facility to help expand his business from just servicing semen customers. Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics now caters to many customer needs including: Bovine Virus Diarrhea (BVD) testing, genetic carrier testing, blood pregnancy testing, artificial insemination (AI) schools, and embryo transfer (ET) work.

Clubbin’ It Prior to Don purchasing Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics the business was already well established in the club calf industry. “There was an old bull called Sugar Ray that Jerry Kramer had an exclusive lease on,” Don remembers. “That bull was one of the first big-time giants in the club calf industry.”

472 August 2011 • theshowcircuit.com

Kramer built a strong relationship with the bull’s owner, and Sugar Ray would go on to sell loads of semen. “Jerry Kramer really became the preeminent semen supplier in the club calf industry, and that has followed this company for years,” Don shares. In the past, Don has marketed calves he has bred to local youth, and the cattle have had success, with some winning the Neosho County Fair. Other cattle he produces are sold through private treaty, with many going to breeders who are interested in improving the quality of their herds. “I like selling cattle through private treaty, because it is easier to track the calves to know whose got them and see how the cattle perform, which I like to know,” he says. When the genetic carrier defects were discovered in many top-selling club calf sires during the early 2000s Don was worried it might ruin the club calf business. “We are heavily involved and deeply invested in the club calf industry,” he says. “We sell a lot of Angus genetics, but it’s not 90 percent of our business like everyone else, so it

would hurt us a lot to lose the club calf industry.” Don has enjoyed his association with club calf breeders since buying the business. “It’s a market where club calf guys tend to be pretty aggressive entrepreneurs and pretty interested in genetic improvement. They are always looking for the next great one, and I like that. It’s been a good match,” he reflects.

Serviceman Whether Don is in the lab sorting embryos or in the cab of his feed truck, he always has a focus on providing quality service to his customers. “This is a service industry,” he explains. “It has everything to do with people wanting to find a person who knows what they are doing and can get the job done.” Being a smaller company allows Don to have a more hands-on approach and the ability to interact with his clients on a daily basis. To better inform potential customers of bulls that might perform well in their cow herds, he uses a labeling system that gives a color distinction to the sires that have sold the most se-

between the pages men in recent years. “It lets customers know what’s popular, what’s working, and what’s being used,” he shares. “It’s directly related with their market acceptance. It is not my opinion of their genetic merit.” Don thinks there are lots of reasons that people buy bulls from phenotype to genotype, and even something as simple as a bull’s name. “Long story short, if a bull has sold a lot of semen compared to his contemporaries for five years, then that bull is doing something right,” he says. “You can argue his relative merits forever, but if they sell a lot of semen, well, people are voting on him with their pocketbooks.” Don’s philosophy on his catalog is to provide producers with information they are looking for by doing it in as unbiased and fair a manner he can. “We have a couple hundred bulls in that catalog, and we try to make it a decent reference for producers,” he says. Many specialty breeds have been included in the semen directory to help meet customer demand for those sires. “Occasionally you’ll get some people that will call up and want a more

rare breed. This company has sold a little bit of everything.” Just in the past year a group of sires geared towards grass feeding have been put in the directory. They are of Angus or South Devon genetics, originating from producers in New Zealand and Australia who believe grass fed cattle will have an impact on the U.S. beef industry. Don took on the new sires because he tries to work with anyone who has a good idea. “I think the thing I enjoy the most is the relationships I build with the people I work with: bull owners, customers, people in the office, everyone. In that respect it’s been good,” he says.

Attack of the Clones Don acquired Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics because he needed a new challenge in life, now he is looking for another venture to add to his company: cloning. “I’d like to

get into creating my own clones, because I’ve got some cloned calves here that are just fabulous,” Don shares. However, Don has been unable to get the intellectual property and technology to perform his own cloning procedures. He currently utilizes the company Cyagra to get cattle cloned. “They send me the embryos from Pennsylvania, then I put them in recipients here and raise the calves. We’ve been very successful with it,” he says. The first producer-supported cloning project to Don’s knowledge happened in 2001, when he and Dean Kephart had five clones created from tissues samples taken of the club calf bull, Full Flush. Cloning animals has the advantage of providing proven genetics to

August 2011 • theshowcircuit.com

473

producers and also allows for cattle that may be deceased to continue their contributions to improving the industry with clones that provide semen or embryos. “If you get a good calf that is popular, you can sell a lot of semen out of the clone, because the original bull may not have semen available,” Don says. Genetic Horizons-SEK Genetics currently has a whole stable of cloned cattle on the property. There are five clones of the cow, NTC 615 Ever Ready, mother to the popular club calf bull, Irish Whiskey. All of the heifers are going to calve in the next year. Other popular club calf cloned dams at the facility include: two copies of Rick Frye’s Shania F36 602, one copy of Kris Black’s Phylli, multiple copies of C.A. Collins’s Grizz 950, and copies of Rocky Hills Mary. The cloned heifers are being used to increase the amount of embryos that can be supplied for ET. “I clone more heifers than bulls, because if you clone a cow yourself you can do it for $8,000 to $10,000, and you can’t buy great cows with that kind of money,” he says. In the future Don thinks the beef industry will be transformed by cloning. “You see more people cloning stuff, because they see it as being economically advantageous, and you can make some serious money doing it,” he says. He believes there will be a time that it will be cheaper to clone an animal rather than flushing a female and worrying about genetic combinations. “All you need is one good cell line and you can make millions of embry-

474 August 2011 • theshowcircuit.com

os out of one cell line. There’s no feeding it or taking it to water or watching it die. You just keep growing them, and they keep producing cells,” he observes. Don sees a day where herds of cattle will be composed of clones with certain lines of genetics being used for precise areas of the country. No matter if it’s the short grass country of Wyoming or the fertile river valleys of Ohio, there will be a certain type of cow developed for every location in the country that will be efficient and suitable for the environment. “You’ll be a like a tractor owner, all of your tractors will be the same brand. There will be different models of cows for each region. When you get used to that model of cow you’ll be like that guy who always uses John Deere tractors,” he says. When the day comes that it is economically viable to create herds of cattle based off clones, it will offer the most uniform product to consumers of beef. It will also allow for producers to have a better idea of what management strategies they will need to utilize for the most productive herd, because they will have raised that exact animal before. Until that time Genetic HorizonsSEK Genetics and Don will continue to offer quality service that clients want. “It’s an exciting industry and there is a lot of future to it. There might be some bumps in the road, but this is a good business to be in. It’s a lot of fun, and it should be.”

It is with great pride that we introduce you to SC Outdoors: a new annual feature that we hope will be a highlight of our August State Fair Edition for years to come! After years of visiting with our clients about their plans after state fairs, club calf sales, and fall harvest, the common thread that we find is that many livestock people like to take their free time to enjoy the great outdoors. Since we love the outdoors, too, we envisioned the SC Outdoors annual feature, and we are excited to use the next couple of pages to as an ode to the outdoorsman — highlighting some of our favorite outdoor-related entertainment, facts, recipes, and more. We also thank our faithful readers for their photo submissions!

Fun Facts • •

There are over 25,000 identified species of fish on the earth. Where an animal’s eyes are placed on its head can tell you whether it is a predator or prey. Owls have eyes on the front of their face like humans, which helps them judge distance and catch their prey more easily. Prey animals like rabbits have eyes on the sides of their heads, which allows them to see behind and in front at the same time, making it harder for a predator to sneak up on them. When a bald eagle loses a feather on one wing, it will lose a feather on the other in order to keep its balance! Squirrels cannot see the color red. The largest fish is the great whale shark which can reach fifty feet in length.

sittin' by the fireplace in the cabin at the camp the rain’s been coming down for days, it's really cold and damp With dominoes upon the table, a pot of chilli on the fire Hunters gathered all around to see who's the biggest liar from the rye grass patch another story-teller walks on in "You shoulda seen the one that got away, I swear he was a ten!" "Yeah I'se headed back up into camp when the corner of my eye saw a flash of brown runnin' wild with his head held way up high Now boys, you know I'm a tracker, an' I followed him for miles But somewhere that ol' buck well he's a-sittin' with a smile." "You know the ol' pine thicket that sits over to the west? trailed him right through the heart — I really done my best He took me all around in circles. I'se lost as I could be I thought I was a goner, fallin' into ol' BeAr CreeK . An' I tell ya son that cold water is deeper than you think But that sly ol' buck had wore me out I needed me a drink." "With my hat dipped in the water - I wasn't in no rush then much to my dismay -I heard a rustle in the brush Now that buck was huntin' me, don't know where he learned to track Next thing I know he took a swing with his big ol' trophy rack. " "It was a long way to the bottom where I touched my feet When I finally surfaced an' took some air, man it sure was sweet I shook my head to clear my eyes an' saw him standin' there that ol' buck had hung around, he didn't have a care Well I raised my gun real slow an' carefully I took aim If I missed this shot ol' buddy - I'd surely be ashamed." "I pulled that trigger, heard it click, an' you know it ain't fired yet An then it hits, just like me them bullets was soakin' wet!" "on that long walk back, you know, a thought invaded my head If that buck had really wanted, I'd sure 'nuff be dead Now boys, take heed to what I say an' if you cross this big boy’s track don't be the hunter that's now the hunted With a tArGet on your back !"

eeding Value of Corn Distillers at High and Low Relative Corn Prices

As I sit down and write this column, June 27, shelled corn is down to $6.44 on the Board and $6.17 at my local elevator here in the Bloomington-Normal area. I find it hard to write that corn is down to $6.64. Relative to previous years, six to seven dollar corn is high. But then a week ago corn was $7.99 on the Board and some people are still predicting $9.00 corn in the near future. Table 1 shows the average farm price for shelled corn since 1970. While I am not an economist, it is my perception that the corn blight of the early 1970’s combined with higher oil costs ushered in a new era of relatively high corn prices ($3.00:bu plus) up from the previous $1.25:bu era. Today, 2011, it seems that the new relatively high oil prices combined with a variety of new markets for shelled corn/corn products has ushered in another new and yet higher era of corn prices (the $6-7:00:bu era). And, with shelled corn at $6.64:bushel (11.86¢:lb), shelled corn may be too expensive to continue as the primary feedstuff in finishing cattle diets. As most feeders have discovered, corn distillers grains (DGS) may be the new primary feedstuff substitute for shelled corn. This morning Jessica (one of my most talented graduate students) contacted all the ethanol plants operating within Illinois and in the states bordering Illinois within 50 miles of the state line. The average selling price for wet distillers grains with solubles (WDGS) was $72:ton FOB ranging from $40 to $97:ton). At 40 – 60% moisture that translates to 7.20¢: lb of dry matter (DM) for WDGS. Dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) was priced at $196:ton FOB ranging from $160 – $210:ton, (at 10% moisture that is 10.89¢:lb of DM. Short story is that WDGS is less expensive to feed than is DDGS, and the three most important factors related to buying DGS are location, location, location. Our guideline is that regarding WDGS, it is too expensive to haul water more than 50 miles if WDGS is to compete with DDGS or shelled corn on a cost per pound of DM basis. At ISU we routinely feed WDGS, even during the warmer summer months. Several articles ago we explained how we economically store WDGS in bunker silos with minimal storage loss. Previously conducted research at Illinois State University has found that feeding diets containing 25, 40 and 70% WDGS have returned more

gross dollars over feed cost than diets containing whole shelled corn and 0% WDGS. While the total return over feed cost increases as percent WDGS in the diet increases, the rate of return over feed cost decreases as the percent WDGS increases over 25% of the diet DM. The average increase in return over feed cost was 13% for 25% WDGS inclusion compared to 0% WDGS. The average increase for 40% WDGS was 15% and for 70% WDGS it was 18%. Table 2 shows that if the return over feed cost for adding WDGS was linear, including 70% WDGS into finishing diets would increase return over feed cost by 64% compared to shelled corn based diets. The increase is not linear but rather increases at a decreasing rate. When adding WDGS to finishing diets, the return over feed cost rate of increase maximizes around 25% WDGS inclusion and the rate of increase decreases at higher inclusion levels. Another important factor to watch regarding whether and how much WDGS to feed is the cost:lb DM for shelled corn compared to WDGS. When shelled corn was $3.50:bu, and 7.10¢:lb of DM, WDGS was priced at $35:wet ton or 3.18¢:lb of DM. Today with shelled corn at $6.64:bu and 13.47¢:lb of DM, WDGS is priced at $72:wet ton or 7.20¢:lb of DM. At $3.50 shelled corn was 2.23 times as expensive as WDGS. Today at $6.64 shelled corn is 1.87 times as expensive as WDGS. Cattle feeders must watch the shelled corn/WDGS price spread. As the shelled corn price increases, the WDGS price is following corn up and the price differential is becoming less attractive. Currently, the price differential for shelled corn compared to DDGS is only 1.24:1. And, on occasion, at some ethanol plants with a high demand for DDGS the price differential between shelled corn and DDGS is 1:1 or negative. Day in and day out WDGS compared to DDGS is usually the more economical feedstuff for finishing cattle. We just sold three pots (125 head) of steers coming off a feeding trial evaluating 0, 25, 40 and 70% high fat (11 – 12%) WDGS. We still have another 120 head to send to harvest, so we have not completely analyzed the data. But, for 120 steers recently harvested, 118 graded low choice or higher and 2 graded select. This study, combined with previous studies shows that cattle can grade low choice or higher when fed higher levels of WDGS. We have entered a new era of finishing cattle where corn is no longer king. It’s by-product DGS is the new primary feedstuff in finishing diets for progressive feedlot managers.

ransitioning Jobs? Protect Your Retirement Income

The current economic and market environment has prompted many Americans to rethink their retirement strategies. If you are experiencing a job transition— particularly if the transition is unplanned and unexpected—such a reassessment may be particularly important for you. While it may be tempting to focus more on your immediate needs, you should not lose sight of long-term goals, especially your retirement strategy. Some Basic Decisions Your employer-sponsored retirement plan is likely to be a key component of your retirement strategy. Because it represents a key source of future retirement income, it is important to carefully consider your alternatives for administering these assets. During a job transition, you will usually have three options: take a lump sum distribution, leave your assets in the employer-sponsored plan or move your assets into a rollover IRA. Taking a direct, lump sum distribution—With this option, the assets in your plan are distributed directly to you in a lump sum, which provides you with immediate access to your funds. Depending on your short-term needs, that may appear to be an attractive alternative. However, a distribution will likely result in substantial federal and state income taxes and, if you are under age 59½, a 10% IRS penalty tax, which can significantly reduce the amount of the distribution. Because you will be receiving the distribution directly, the plan administrator must withhold up to 20% of the value of the distribution for federal income tax purposes. Moreover, you will lose the benefit of the tax-deferred status of these assets, which could reduce the amount ultimately available to you at retirement. The status quo option—You can decide to do nothing, leaving your assets in your former employer’s plan. That will protect the tax-deferred status of your assets and allow you to transfer the account assets at a later time to a new employer’s retirement plan that accepts rollovers. But you may be limiting your investment choices and control be-

cause employer plans typically have a restricted investment menu and require the consent of your spouse before you can name someone else as a beneficiary. Establishing a rollover IRA—A rollover IRA simultaneously addresses the issues of taxation, flexibility and control, and may hold significant benefits for you as a result: • If your distribution is transferred directly to a custodian, rather than to you, the rollover IRA eliminates the withholding requirement and penalties that may result from a lump sum distribution. • The entire rollover amount can be invested immediately, according to the strategy you specify. • Your assets and any earnings continue to have the potential to grow tax-deferred until you retire and begin taking withdrawals. • You may gain access to a wider range of investment options and more retirement planning and distribution flexibility. • You can name any beneficiary, including a trust, without needing the consent of your spouse (although special rules may apply in community property states). For example, investment products in an employer plan are usually limited to mutual funds and company stock. With a self-directed rollover IRA, you can work with your financial professional to structure a portfolio using stocks, bonds, annuities and other investments utilizing an asset allocation1 that is customized to help you meet your retirement investment objectives. And your retirement strategy can be further tailored with a wider range of beneficiary selection and distribution choices. Keep in mind that leaving your assets in a former employer’s plan does have some benefits. For example, many qualified retirement plans include loan provisions that are not available with an IRA but may still be available to you. And you should look at the costs associated with any investments you may be considering because it could be less expensive for you to leave your assets in the former employer’s plan.

Consider Consolidation However, this may also be an excellent time to deal with multiple IRAs you may have opened over the years, and with account balances you may have left in the plans of former employers. Together, these assets may represent a significant sum. There are good reasons to consider consolidating them all in a rollover IRA: • Comprehensive investment strategy—It can be difficult to maintain an effective investment strategy—one that accurately reflects your goals, timing and risk tolerance— when assets are spread among multiple financial institutions. When you consolidate, your financial professional can help you ensure that these assets are part of an asset allocation strategy that reflects your current financial situation and long-term retirement goals. • Greater investment flexibility—A self-directed IRA generally offers you the ability to choose from a wide range of investment products, including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, annuities and more. • Simplified tracking—Because you will receive one statement instead of several, it is easier to monitor your progress and investment results. That simplifies your life while protecting the environment. • Lower costs—Reducing the number of accounts may also reduce your account fees and other investment-related charges. Dealing with one account rather than several also simplifies the distribution process—including complying with complex minimum distribution rules when you reach age 70½. And you avoid the risk of losing track of your retirement accounts or access to the account assets should your former employer merge with another company or go out of business. An advisor can help you assess your alternatives so you can make decisions based on what’s best for you. You may find that this time of transition holds benefits for your retirement assets. 1 Asset allocation does not ensure a profit or protect against loss in declining financial markets.

avorite Quotes of the B.S. Month

• It is not joy that makes us grateful. It is gratitude that makes us joyful. David Rast • The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. William James • Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things. Robert Brault • Gray hair is God’s graffiti. Bill Cosby

Favorite Blog PoStS from a Month of B.S. • On a Roll @ Home N the Pig Barn... This morning it was just Drake and I choring. Sage had volleyball open gym. Drake was at his finest when he approached his Yorkshire barrow to check on him first thing, and broke into song, screaming out... “Shot through the heart.....and YORK to blame......baby you give love, a bad name.” After everything was fed, Drake was in the pen with his buddy “Labin”, a crossbred barrow, who AUTOMATICALLY plays dead, so Drake will rub his belly. He hollers at me while shaking Labin’s front leg (which is dangling) back and forth and says... “Look! Labin’s doing his RUBBER PENCIL trick.” Meanwhile the pig never moved a muscle, loving every second of it! The York I mention above, did something kinda spooky to Sage a while back. His nose is kinda jammed up, and every morning Sage would walk in to water him, and say, “run into a wall last night, yorky?”... laugh and go on. But this time after Sage said this, Yorky looked her in the eye, turned around, and went over and stuck his nose against the wall! How funny(weird) is that!

• Funny Moment N the Ring... I missed it, but I heard the crowd erupt in laughter, and tracked down what went on. Many of the heifers today were wrestless in the ring. Probably the kids and calves BOTH were worn out, and when the cattle walked into the air conditioned show ring they perked right up. Apparently, one little girl’s heifer got loose and was running around. The little girl got mad and went stomping towards the gate to go out of the ring in disgust. Her heifer happened to see her stomping out, and ran over and walked behind her the entire way out, like a dog on a leash that wasn’t being held......and knew she was in TROUBLE!

• Summer Speeding By... The summer that took forever to show up, is speeding by. State Fair is a month away, and then school begins. I heard on the local news tonight that one of the “new foods” at the Iowa State Fair is going to be DEEP FAT FRIED.......BUTTER! My son was fired up. He said he was definitely going to try THAT, but he’s the one that sprays “Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” in his hand and licks it. And, yes, we get after him for doing it. Last year, Drake and Sage just had to try the DFF dill pickles. I could do without them. Sage said she wants to try the chocolate covered BACON. I’m in on that. Can’t wait for the Iowa State Fair. If you’ve never been there, you’ve GOT TO GO! • Deep Fat Fried... We were at Shawn’s sister’s house last weekend, and she had bought her two college boys a deep fat fryer to take back to school with them, but not until we tried it out. Becky had deep fat fried potatoes, mushrooms, cauliflower, zucchini, and to finish everyone off, deep fat fried OREOS! Yeah, Baby! Of course I indulged in everything, and on the 45 minute drive home, my stomach felt like I’d sucked on the spicket of a 50 gallon oil drum. But yes, I’d do it all over again, if given the chance. It’s the American weigh. LOL! • Baled my 1st hay of 2011 2day... After two baler break downs and 11 hours of blood, sweat, and tears, I have my first hay baled and picked up. A whoppin’ 27 bales! And on top of that the heat index was only 110 degrees! Nothin’ like pulling green hay chunks out of the back of a baler in that temperature. All the rain we’ve had showed up in a few of the wrong places and made that field a pain to get completely dry. Good hay though.

he Final Drive

Livestock shows are an abstract concept. I’ve been going to county, state and national agricultural expositions all my life, so I’d never given much thought to what an “outsider” might think upon seeing their first steer or heifer show. Last year, at the conclusion of the Ohio State Fair, I had reason to pause and consider just such an occasion. One of my oldest and dearest friends, upon listening to me retell the glory of the Sale of Champions (the most successful edition in its history, raising over $200,000 for youth scholarship and development programs), asked me some very pointed and insightful questions about these exhibitions. Sometimes it takes what, at first, seems like an obvious question to really get the mind working. Today’s 4-H and FFA members likely give little thought to the ultimate origins of the modern livestock show. What my FFA Advisor once referred to as “Little League for farm kids” holds a few similarities to those fairs and farm shows of old, but their actual purpose for existing is far different today than a century ago. The first county fairs and country farm expos were very basic affairs that evolved as a way for farmers and breeders to quite literally show off their stock, both for marketing and instructive purposes. In those days, before technologies like Artificial Insemination and Embryo Transfer, a breeder might use such livestock shows as a way to evaluate his herd, or as a tool for selecting the next replacement female or herd sire. These early shows were also good barometers for determining trends in the evolution, so to speak, of the species. Look back at black and white photos from livestock shows in the first thirty years of the 20th Century, and you’ll see how vastly different an animal looks today than from that era. Everything from body size and shape to confirmation and temperament is different. As the demands of the market and the needs of the farmer changed with time, so then did the selection for certain traits and characteristics. Livestock shows were a way for the industry to literally see the trends and learn what influential thinkers were looking for as they evaluated the stock in the competition. Today’s livestock shows still fill those needs, to an extent.

by Andy Vance

Breeders certainly use these events to showcase their stock and promote their farm operation. Showing your animals, however, is not the only venue from which to do such promotion. From the Internet to trade publications, breeders have more opportunity to market their produce today than at any point in history. Shows, therefore, have taken on more of a competitive nature, and therein have become excellent metaphors for life. Livestock projects in 4-H and FFA teach young people work ethic, responsibility, animal husbandry and well-being, fiscal discipline, and management skills. By working hard and learning a great deal about the proper management and care of the animal, the student can do very well at any given competition. Animal selection, nutrition, and handling are all acquired skills that will serve these students well later in life, as well. At the conclusion of a livestock show is what if referred to as “The Final Drive.” This is where the winners of each class or division of animals shown re-enter the ring to compete for the overall title of Grand Champion at that particular show. In the spirit of the NCAA Basketball Tournament, the show’s judge places each class of animals, leaving only a handful in the ring at the conclusion of the contest, and ultimately selecting a single winner. In life, we work hard and try to increase our knowledge so that we too might advance in our own endeavors, and ultimately end up in the “winner’s circle.” The Final Drive, of course, isn’t all about winning the show. As the Judge at one State Fair hog show pointed out, there’s only one “winner.” But did the other exhibitors really “lose?” While not dwelling on the warm-and-fuzzy cliché about all of us being winners, in this particular arena I can speak from experience. While I never won “Grand Champion” honors at a fair or show, growing up with livestock and the responsibility of caring for show cattle helped shape my life in numerous ways. The reasons we show stock today may be very different from “Shows...have become excellent the farmers of yesteryear, but the benefits of working hard to metaphors for make it to the Final Drive are life.” — ANDY VANCE every bit as real and every bit as important.

Every great donor, bull, or whereas if the animal is alive when the tissue sample is taken, the process can be repeated if something prevents the steer comes to an end. culture from being successful.” While artificial insemination (AI), ET, and IVF each But do they have to?

In the cattle industry, many breeders value and cherish genetics that have been proven in their breeding program. Advanced reproductive technologies such as embryo transfer (ET), in vitro fertilization (IVF), sexed-semen, genetic preservation and cloning have allowed breeders to achieve specific goals within their program and extend the impact of genetics that they have continually counted on. But when that ‘key breeding piece’ in a program becomes unavailable, whether it be through reproductive incapability or even an untimely death, does that animal’s genetic impact have to end once the semen or embryos are gone? Preserving the traits of an elite animal is one of the best investments that can be made. Diane Broek, general manager of Bovance, reminds breeders that the best way to prepare and protect yourself against the sudden injury, illness or death of a promising individual’s genetics, is in the form of investment insurance, and genetic preservation is the ideal way to do this. Genetic preservation and cloning are two unique services offered by Bovance, which is a joint venture company formed by Trans Ova Genetics of Sioux Center, Iowa and ViaGen of Austin, Texas. “Having the ability to harvest the value from a proven animal, and his or her genotype for years to come can be a very wise investment,” says Broek. As a precursor to the cloning process, a simple tissue sample (usually from the ear) is all that is required to start a genetic preservation of an animal. These tissue samples are cultured to produce millions of cells that are genetically identical to the genetic donor animal’s cells. The cells are then cryogenically frozen and can be stored indefinitely in conditions similar to semen and embryo storage. Cells (DNA) from a small portion of the genetic preservation can later be thawed to be used in the cloning process, when desirable or optimal to do so. While dependent on environmental conditions, a tissue sample for a genetic preservation can be taken up to 24-48 hours after an animal’s death. While injury and death are great reasons to send in a tissue sample, Dr. Dave Faber, president of Trans Ova Genetics, advises not to wait until the last minute. “People need to be proactive and preserve valuable genetics while the animal is still alive. Waiting until death is risky due to weekends, holidays, extreme weather conditions, overnight shipments, etc. They also only have ONE chance to culture the cells in the case of a death event,

have their own application to cattle breeders, genetic preservation and cloning offer unique benefits. Many breeders spend a lifetime attempting to find an elite animal that can take their genetics to the next level. With cloning, breeders have the advantage of knowing exactly what they will produce. “The production of a genetic preservation or cell line can be less expensive than some insurance programs,” says Broek. “And through cloning, it allows the breeder to produce a genetic twin to the animal that has already proven its value. For many of us, the opportunity to work with a truly elite animal comes along only once, or twice, in a lifetime. Having the ability to replace those outstanding genetics with a younger, identical, living, breathing version of our favorite cow or bull can be much more valuable to us than the actual monetary cost of the loss,” says Broek. Once the first step of a genetic preservation has been made, breeders look to cloning as a technology that allows them to: • Produce a genetic twin of an elite animal no longer capable of producing embryos or semen • Produce an intact male/bull for breeding purposes from a castrated male (steers, geldings, etc.) • Produce a genetic twin of an elite animal that has died. • Produce quantities of elite individuals for the purpose of large-scale, consistent genetic influence within a herdbuilding program or to meet semen and embryo demand from other breeders The industry is always challenging breeders to make unique decisions that will help them sustain and grow. While managing expenses and carefully thinking through the most promising strategic investments, breeders should consider investments that can yield known results and solid returns.

We’d like to apologize. ...For possibly Filling your trailers, bellies, and occupying your time. Interstate and that darn Monopoly bull worked so well that instead of the usual 25–30 calves we sell, this year we are so swamped with good ones we had to add another sale. We apologIze. Flooding the market with these state and national level calves, the fun of driving all over creation to see one or two nice ones will be gone. We’ll just point you to the next pen! Just 10 miles south of Des Moines at McDaniel Cattle Co., there will be 25-30 fitted, halter-broke barn burners ready to load on labor Day for Round 1. Bid off ends September 5.
