The GeneTrusT lineup has been our most trusted source when seeking A.I. sires. . Vern and Craig view hundreds of calves each year sired by their bull battery and are always forthcoming in conveying where their sires are the most effective. In a business where time is money, we have very little room for missteps and the service and advice relative to mating decisions that the GeneTrusT crew has offered us over the years has been invaluable, and quite frankly impossible to replicate if we were to try and do it on our own.

IBBA CONNECTION Thanks To All

A

s you have read by now, I will be leaving the International Brangus Breeders Association. It has been a real pleasure to get to know so many of you over the last eight years, and I hope to continue my relationships with many of you in the future. I will always look back on this time in my life and remember the many good friends and working relationships I have made and, in particular, the many IBBA Directors I have had a chance to get to know and marvel at their genuine concern for the association and the membership. I guess that is when you get to know the true character of these individuals. I am most proud of the staff that we have been able to bring into the association and to watch those individuals develop and represent the membership; it is not always easy to work for such a large group of people. The IBBA staff today is very well respected in our industry, and they have absolutely put the Brangus association on the map. They are young, energetic and dynamic and have developed into highly respected professionals whom I will always be proud to say I was associated with. They will always represent the association with integrity and pride. The past eight years saw some tough times, but I will always think about the accomplishments that moved our association to the forefront. I believe that Total Herd Reporting was a must and will continue to be the backbone of the seedstock industry.

by Dr. Joseph MASSEY IBBA EXECUTIVE VICE-PRESIDENT

There is no more powerful tool than data. Without it, it becomes impossible to know how to make progress and where the future may lie. The IBBA website and the ease of use of our data site set the standard for the industry, and it has been copied many times over. I always marveled when other associations copied our reports or framework, which only illustrated that we at IBBA were leading, not following. The evolution of our promotional presence at NCBA and the recognition of our staff this past year at NCBA for best in “breed/industry communications” was a tremendous source of pride for me. I am telling you this is a staff to have pride in, and understand the name Brangus is out in the industry every day. The international recognition has also been great, but it is just beginning and you, as members, need to support these efforts because we no longer just do business in our backyard but rather on an international level, and with technology it will only become easier. The understanding and development of multibreed EPDs along with genetically enhanced EPDs will become the standard of our industry, and now is the time to develop longer term genetic programs that will carry you for the next 10 plus years. We do not breed bulls to cows any longer - we develop breeding programs that move or fix genes in a population of cows or herds. We actually have one or two very good examples of this in Brangus, and it is these breeders who are leading the breed. I would like to finish by saying remember, you are the caretakers of the Brangus breed; do it proud. BJ ABOUT THE AUTHOR Dr. Massey has served as Executive Vice President of the IBBA since 2004. In 2007, he started Genetic Performance Solutions, LLC, a breed registry services and performance analysis company serving the cattle and breed association industry— an IBBA owned company. GPS manages online registry programs for breed associations and the data base management of performance data like multi-breed EPDs.

IBBA CONNECTION Brangus Just Keep on Producing

T

he theme for this issue of the Brangus Journal is “reproduction”, and I think that is just one of the many great traits of Brangus cattle, and it is definitely a very important one. Most Brangus seedstock producers and commercial breeders I have met all insist on their cattle calving on an annual basis. That is not every 16 to 18 months; it is a strict 12 months. We may calve out at different times during the year, but we all expect a calf from each cow every 12 months. It does not take long to recognize in a controlled breeding program that the same group of cows calve first each calving season also. This is a good sign of fertility, and since fertility has been proven to be hereditary, it is a good idea to select your replacement heifers and herd bulls from this group of females.

12 | MAY 2013

BRANGUS JOURNAL

by Ron FLAKE IBBA PRESIDENT

One of the most talked about traits of our Brangus females is their maternal value. A great part of that is the ability to consistently reproduce and continue producing well into their teenage years. Brangus cattle remind me of the energized bunny commercial; they just keep on producing. Do you have any teenagers in your herd? If you do not, you just have not been breeding Brangus cattle long enough. BJ

IBBA CONNECTION Flashback: IBBA Director Donates Brangus Bulls

R

esearch is essential to the advancement of knowledge, technologies and practices in any industry or field. Findings resulting from research studies allow us in the beef cattle industry to improve efficiency, sustainability and quality. Researchers have developed tools and resources for improved breeding techniques, for example. Without thorough, valid research, our society would be at a standstill, never witnessing any change or progress. The IBBA continues to stay on the cutting edge of the latest technology by participating in a 50k Genomic Project to develop an informative set of DNA markers for certain traits. The informative markers will help to quickly increase accuracies of EPDs, particularly those for traits that manifest themselves later in life. In the near future, these markers may be used to test for certain traits. IBBA members and breeders are instrumental to the success of this project, with the end goal being to improve the quality of the breed as a whole, and therefore improving beef for today’s consumer. Like the example in the following excerpt from the March 1974 issue of the Brangus Journal, success is unattainable without the help of supporters and fellow breeders. BJ 14 | MAY 2013

IBBA CONNECTION Flashback: IBBA Director Donates Bulls IBBA Director Latimer Murfee Donates Brangus Bulls to Uvalde A&M Extension Center

A

planned Brangus cows for know-how project of the Texas A&M University Research and Extension Center at Uvalde was initially launched with bull power support in January by the Letter M Ranches’ purchase and donation of two outstanding Brangus bulls. Latimer Murfee, owner of Letter M Ranches in Cypress, Texas, as well as extensive ranching interests in the Texas Panhandle, made the purchases January 5 at the Willow Springs Harris Farms Sale held at Sealy, Texas. Murfee purchased WSR Theldicks S-505 for $2,450 and Carefree Cavalier 3 for $1,825 and then donated both of these bulls to the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station for the specific use of the research personnel at the Research and Extension Center. “We are extremely pleased with the merit of these outstanding Brangus bulls,” commented Dr. Stewart H. Fowler, Resident Director of Research at the Uvalde center. “These bulls represent strong, diverse bloodlines of the Brangus breed and will provide flexibility in our breeding program from the very start, and we are most gratified by this faith and support placed behind our proposed research program by Mr. Murfee.” Murfee is chairman of the Research Committee for the Texas Brangus Breeders Association. He had followed Dr. Fowler’s interest in a Brangus research herd even prior to Dr. Fowler’s joining the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station in August 1972. Dr. Fowler had previously served as head of the Animal Science Department at Mississippi State University, where he had research herds of Barzonas, Beefmasters, Brahmans and Santa Gertrudis and had completed partial arrangements to establish additional research herds of Brangus, Devons and Longhorns. The Uvalde center serves an 18-county area of Southwest Texas. One of its major research thrusts will be in a combination of livestock, wildlife and range management. Last fall the Crystal City Research Station, located only 40 miles away, was placed

under the administrative control of the Uvalde center; plans are underway to develop a major portion of the station into an intensive beef and forage production center to support the successful conversion of many acres of Rio Grande Plain’s more fertile and/or irrigated land to intensive beef production. Among the research objectives proposed for a multidisciplinary approach are: 1. To evaluate cattle of bos indicus and bos taurus under intensive beef production systems in the regional production environment of the Rio Grand Plain; 2. To study modifications of existing cattle management practices as an aid to increasing beef production under intensive systems of production, with special emphasis on improving reproductive performance; 3. To develop beef cattle production management systems that optimize total efficiency and economy from conception to carcass. A number of Brangus breeders have expressed interest in donating females for the proposed research, which will include studies in genetic background evaluation, environmental stress studies and management studies and will also include complete economic analyses of the beef production systems studied. The genetic evaluation, for example, will consider fertility, growth curves, parasite and disease resistance, grazing behavior, environmental adaptation, brood cow longevity, and carcass merit. The donated herd will be referred to as Brangus Cows for Know How. Brangus breeders interested in providing animals for this long-term research should contact Dr. Fowler at Uvlade. Additional breeds will be added to the total research program of the Uvlade center, both at Crystal City and in an extensive beef production program as soon as 5,000 to 10,000 acres of typical Rio Grande Plain rangeland can be acquired.

IBBA CONNECTION Considering the “I” in IBBA

T

he international aspect of the Brangus breed is perhaps one of the most intriguing. We are fortunate enough to be involved in a breed that has global acceptance. In both my travels abroad and my interaction with our international guests at this year’s Global Roundup, I have had the opportunity to hear great things about how Brangus is a growing breed on the international stage. Within the last year we have witnessed great demand for Brangus in the well-established market of Australia during the 2012 World Brangus Congress and Beef Australia. Various programs in this country have successfully utilized U.S. genetics and continue to reap the benefits. Mexico is pursuing Brangus at an all time high right now; enthusiasm about the Brangus breed is constantly climbing as we inch closer to the 2014 Brangus World Congress in Yucatan. This is only a tip of the iceberg in terms of the international market that is available for those who will take the time and resources to pursue it. Several breeders have taken advantage of the growing market in South America. Recently, I took a trip to Brazil where I attended one of the largest Brangus shows in that country and toured a few Brangus ranches. I was amazed by the popularity of the U.S. genetics both at the show and on the ranches I visited. However, quite possibly the most encouraging thing I heard while I was there was how happy they have been with the semen and embryos they have imported over the past 10-plus years, and they are eager to obtain more of our genetics. The Brangus breeders of Brazil were thrilled to have someone from the association to pepper with questions about genetics, selections and pedigrees, and trust me, they asked plenty of excellent questions.

16 | MAY 2013

BRANGUS JOURNAL

by Garrett THOMAS IBBA DIRECTOR OF MEMBERSHIP & INTERNATIONAL PROMOTION

The owner of one of the ranches I visited had a very progressive view on the cattle business; he talked about how they had learned the most profitable route for success in agriculture was through “predictably consistent production.” He went on to explain his vision to accomplish this goal, and along the way, he made it clear that his ranch is focused on profitability and meeting the demands of the consumer. His customers were both the


IBBA CONNECTION commercial cattlemen in his region to whom he supplied bulls and consumers who purchased beef to feed their families. This growing operation includes more than 1,000 commercial cows and a rapidly growing registered Brangus herd. When asked specifically about how they have accomplished such consistency in the cowherd, he was eager explain. He informed me that every commercial cow on his ranch is artificially inseminated every year and that his registered cows were each artificially inseminated twice per breeding season. He quickly added that last year he AI’d all of his commercial cows to two bulls, but that would be reduced to one bull in the 2013 breeding season. Another breeder I had the opportunity to visit with in Brazil talked at length about the importance of selection and how making poor

choices can effect a program for years. I was thrilled to hear how important they realize the selection process is and that they are very interested in what U.S. breeders have to offer. As we look to the future and you consider the direction in which you would like to take your program, I realize the international market may not be for everyone. But if it is something that you have an interest in pursuing, please feel free to contact me. I would really like the chance to share more with you about how to explore that market. Also, it is not too soon to start thinking about attending the Palermo Show, one of the more competitive cattle shows in the world. My trip last year was a great experience, and I plan to attend the show again this year. If you have any questions about cost or making arrangements, please let me know. We strive to have more IBBA members in attendance at these important global events. There is not a question in my mind the global footprint of Brangus is growing. Every person I talk to across the globe says we are a fast growing breed in their region and breeders are constantly making the move to Brangus from other breeds. We have a lot of momentum in our favor right now in terms of the global market, so if you have considered expanding your marketing to the international scene, there may be no better time than the present. BJ ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Garrett Thomas has extensive experience in the seedstock industry having grown up on the family operation that included both registered and commercial cattle. At an early age Thomas was very involved in showing and active in the International Junior Brangus Breeders Association. Highlights of that experience include serving as President of the IJBBA and claiming Reserve Champion Female honors at the National Junior Brangus Show. His professional experience includes working as the ranch manager of a large Brangus operation in Texas where he was named Herdsman of the Year, and prior to coming to the IBBA, he served on the faculty at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. As the Director of Member Relations and International Promotion, Thomas works to increase communication with the membership while increasing exposure of the breed to higher levels across the globe.

IJBBA CONNECTION What Makes a Champion?

by Emily JACKSON IBBA QUEEN & IJBBA DIRECTOR

T

raveling to many shows over the past year, I have had the opportunity to see the nation’s best Brangus cattle! No, I do not mean the heifers that made the backdrop; I mean every animal that walked into the ring. It was a joy for me (and probably misery for the judges) to see classes and divisions with such phenomenal females and bulls. What I came to realize was that there was an uncountable amount of Grand Champion females at every show. Each operation has the best fit for their environment, their customer base and ideal market situation, and that is to be highly respected! The show ring is a competitive place. A place where cattle do not get the recognition they deserve. From pigeon toes to extra leather, cattle can quickly fall out of placing. My opinion? Those females are still great ones! It is the time of year where spring calving is over, green grass is growing, and rebreeding decisions are being penciled out across the nation. It is the time of year that will make the most impact on the future of a cattle operation. It is the time of year where a true cattleman shows his (or her) true strengths. An operation in west Texas and an operation in south Florida can breed two completely different sires with contrasting genetic strengths, and both ranches can be equally as profitable. A true cattleman knows what works for where he is; that is the joy of reproduction! With Brangus semen readily available across the nation and having the fourth largest export numbers, quality genetics are ready for the taking! It is the time of year to take advantage of what this wonderful breed offers! If each operation that brings cattle to shows, as well as the farms that do not exhibit cattle, are maximizing their environment back home, discovering the breeding situation that works best for them and finding profit, I would say that is a Grand Champion operation in my book! BJ ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Being crowned as IBBA Queen is not all glam and glitz. The IBBA Queen is an integral part of the IJBBA Board of Directors and provides a unique link between the show community of the IBBA and the members of the IJBBA. Jackson shall fit that role well as she served on the IJBBA Board of Directors from 2008-2010. Going into her junior year at Texas Tech University, Jackson has and will continue to represent IBBA and IJBBA at this year’s four national shows.

MARKETING UPDATE Reproduction

R

eproduction is the most economically relevant trait to commercial beef production. I will always remember the story my father told me of a Scotsman’s words of wisdom that a dead calf “has a distressingly slow growth rate”. If we cannot settle a group of cows in a timely manner and raise those calves efficiently until weaning, we leave dollars on the table. Many factors contribute to the overall reproductive efficiency of a cowherd. The cows, the bulls and the management all have a role to play. In this issue you will find some very informative information on how you can improve the reproductive efficiency of your herds in several areas. I would encourage you to examine your herd and your production practices to see where improvements can be made. From a genetic prediction standpoint, we have a system to collect information to make genetic improvement in the area of reproductive efficiency on a breed wide basis. Several breeds publish heifer pregnancy EPD and Stayability EPD as well as a Maintenance Energy EPD or a $Energy of Nutrition index in the case of Angus. All of these selection tools can be available to Brangus breeders and more importantly, our commercial bull customers. We have the system through Total Herd Reporting (THR) to build these selection tools. What we do not have is the data from those of you who are not reporting it. An EPD cannot be calculated without at least some meaningful cross section of data. How have other breeds been able to collect these data? In the case of Red Angus, they are the only other breed besides Brangus to have mandatory THR. They were the first to release Heifer Pregancy, Stayability and Maintenance Energy EPDs. Their customers have rapidly taken to these predictions and have made huge genetic improvements in the profitability of their herds. The Red Angus membership is extremely data driven and focused on providing tools to commercial cattlemen’s success. This has driven their association to one of the most powerful in the U.S. Other breeds have some version of THR, which enables them to provide genetic predictions on the cattle of those members who participate in the program. Members’ cattle that are not enrolled in THR programs only get EPDs based on parental data and the limited data that most report. In most cases, the profit driven operations are the ones that see the value in reporting data. Those cattle who are not enrolled in these 28 | MAY 2013

programs are missing pieces of data and in most cases, are at a value disadvantage in a commercial setting. The American Angus Association has seen their customers asking for more and more information and has recently instituted their own form of voluntary THR called MaternalPlus. They have added this option to develop a system to collect data that is desperately needed. They will quickly have a new and exciting database to make selection decisions to make rapid genetic improvement. Brangus breeders need to be aware that we have a system that can be extremely valuable to the breed and more importantly, to our customers. We desperately need more meaningful data to be reported to increase the value of the Brangus cattle evaluation. The beef industry is moving at a rapid pace and demanding more and more data. We must be data driven to survive in the coming years. I would encourage you to contact the IBBA office with any questions on how to better utilize the tools we have and can develop through THR. BJ ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Ben Spitzer grew up in the cattle business with his family involvement going back several generations and has included both commercial cattle and registered cattle of several breeds. His family has been in the Brangus seedstock business since 1982. Spitzer served as Communications/Member Services Director for the Red Angus Association of America (RAAA ) in Denton, TX. Prior to joining the staff at IBBA, he managed a registered Brangus operation in Georgia. Ben was a founding member of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Young Producers Council (YPC) and served as the YPC delegate to the NCBA Membership Committee. He served as Chair of YPC in 2010 and in an advisory role to YPC as Immediate Past Chair in 2011. He remains an active member of NCBA and Texas and Southwestern Cattleraisers Association (TSCRA). As Marketing Programs Director, he oversees IBBA’s Commercial Marketing Programs as well as advertising and promotion of the Brangus breed.

Reproduction remains the most economically relevant trait in beef production. The first step in any direction begins with a live calf hitting the ground.

FEATURE Increasing the Odds for Successful Beef Cattle Synchronization - AI Programs

T

here are a variety of products and systems available for estrous synchronization in beef cattle. However, usage of synchronization systems and AI are not employed by the vast majority of beef producers. Why? With beef cattle, all decisions, economic evaluations, and successes should be evaluated at the total herd level, not at the subgroup or individual level. On a total herd basis, most synchrony programs result in too few cows in heat and/or pregnant for the dollars and time invested. Why? Most producers are still searching for the “silver bullet” or “magic elixir” or “miracle product” rather than applying basic principles of beef herd management. Synchronizing beef cattle actually complicates poor management rather than yielding improved results. Beef producers simply cannot successfully adopt new technology before management fundamentals are in place. If we are to have success, we must improve beef cattle management and sooner than when cows are in the chute for this year’s drug of choice. We will review key management factors critical for successful reproductive rates in beef herds. All of these must be attended to before estrous synchronization will yield satisfactory results. These controllable management factors are: 1) post- partum interval to start of breeding; 2) calving season duration; 3) herd health program; 4) nutrition/body condition (mature cows, firstcalf-cows and replacement heifers); and 5) weight gain at and during breeding.

30 | MAY 2013

BRANGUS JOURNAL

by John C. SPITZER FAIR PLAY, SOUTH CAROLINA

POSTPARTUM INTERVAL

There are volumes of literature where interval to first estrus after calving has been reported. Very simply, not many beef cows return to estrus before 50 days postpartum. In fact, in the Colorado study of Figure 1, those cows were 70 days or more following calving before a majority reinitiated estrous cycles. Most recommendations suggest not enrolling cows in the synchrony program that are not at least 40-45 days postpartum. Since most of these programs require 7 to 10-day treatment duration, these cows would be approximately 50 days postpartum at withdrawal of treatment when they are scheduled to exhibit a synchronized estrus and only a few of those early postpartum cows will respond satisfactorily. Figure 1. Postpartum interval to first estrus in mature beef cows calving with body condition scores of 4 thru 6.


FEATURE With a finite, fixed breeding season starting on or about the same date each year, there would then be cows treated which were between 45 days postpartum and 85 days postpartum. This is simple mathematics. If we begin breeding the same date each year and assume a 280-day average gestation, then breeding the subsequent year will begin approximately 85 days after the first cow has calved.

CALVING SEASON

Cows will fall into a fairly predictable calving pattern, with some herd variation from year to year, based on length of the calving season (Figure 2). While this is only to be considered an example, it is surprising how accurate this depicts reality. If we only initiate an estrus synchronization program on those cows 42 days postpartum or greater and the herd is on a 105-day long calving season, we will exclude 40% of the cows in the herd. Not many producers have taken the time to actually do the math and see the economic impact this makes on the synchrony program at the total herd level. Even with a 63-day calving season, it will take excellent management to have the calving pattern depicted so that 90% or more of cows in the herd can be enrolled in the program. Figure 2. Typical dispersions of calving with 105, 84 and 63- day calving seasons.

A HERD HEALTH PROGRAM

We constantly hear of situations in the southeast where synchronization programs fail or are at least sub-optimum because of a disease situation. Herd level protection against most reproductive diseases takes a lot of scientific thought and management effort. We have herds that are not vaccinated against known reproductive diseases and are not protected. Even worse, we also have a lot of herds that are over vaccinated and under protected. This may be the cheapest part of the entire program and a well thought out, total herd level vaccination program using the latest principles of immunology and epidemiology must be in place. Find an excellent cow-calf Veterinarian who can tell you what to vaccinate against, how and why. A good Veterinarian will cost little compared to the dollars they will save in lost productivity.

NUTRITION/BODY CONDITION

Most are now well aware of the 9-point body condition scoring (BCS) system used to evaluate body energy reserves in beef cattle (Table 1). Body condition score is our best measure of energy reserves or body fat. For the purists among us, BCS can be converted to percent fat (as a percent of total body weight). Cows with a BCS of 5 have about 16% total body fat and each BCS increase or decrease represents about a 4% change in total body fat. Body condition at calving absolutely determines time to return to heat after calving. And, BCS at calving and plane of nutrition during breeding determines pregnancy rate. Body condition scores obtained at other times (particularly at (continued on page 32)

FEATURE (continued from page 31) weaning and 60-90 days prepartum) are key leverage points for management control. There is some value in analyzing pregnancy rates based on BCS obtained at weaning since under most management situations we can generally assume cows have lost at least 1 unit of BCS by the time calves are weaned. However, it is a retrospective analysis and does not help to get more cows pregnant unless changes are initiated for the next year. Mature Cows. Shorter intervals to first heat after calving and increased pregnancy rates are both observed when cows calve with increasing BCS. In the previously mentioned Colorado study, BCS were grouped as Thin = BCS of 2 and 3, Moderate = BCS of 4, 5 and 6 or Good = BCS of 7 and 8. Percent pregnant in the first 20 days of breeding were 35 and 39% for moderate and good cows, respectively, compared to 25% for thin cows. And at the end of an 80-day breeding season, pregnancy rates were 89 and 92% for moderate and good cows, respectively, compared to 72% for thin cows. Pregnancy rates for moderate and good cows were not statistically different. All of these cows were on the same nutritional plane and gaining weight from calving thru the breeding season so these pregnancy rates were direct reflections of estrous response (Figure 3). However, it was 60 days postpartum before significant differences were observed in estrous response. By 80 days postpartum estrous response for thin cows was 62%, which was much less than the estrous response for moderate and good cows of 88 and 98%, respectively. A follow-up study conducted in South Carolina used a series of orthogonal contrasts to determine where significant differences occurred among BCS. Cows calving in BCS greater than 5 were in heat at a higher rate earlier in the subsequent breeding season than cows calving in BCS of 4 or less. Furthermore, ADG from parturition through breeding had no effect on cows calving in BCS greater than 5, but dramatic effects on cows calving in BCS of 4 or less. Figure 3. Body condition score at calving and estrous response in multiparous cows.

BODY CONDITION SCORING (BCS) Thin 1 - Emaciated - Cow is extremely emaciated with no palpable fat detectable over spinous processes, transverse processes, hipbones, or ribs. Tail-head and ribs project quite prominently. 2 - Poor - Cow still appears somewhat emaciated by tail-head and ribs are less prominent. Individual spinous processes are still rather sharp to the touch, but some tissue cover over dorsal portion of ribs. 3 - Thin - Ribs are still individually identifiable but not quite as sharp to the touch. There is obvious palpable fat along spine and over tail-head with some tissue cover over dorsal portion of ribs.

Borderline 4 - Borderline - Individual ribs are no longer visually obvious. The spinous processes can be identified individually on palpation but feel rounded rather than sharp. Some fat cover over ribs, transverse processes and hipbones.

Optimum/Moderate 5 - Moderate - Cow has generally good overall appearance. On palpation, fat cover over ribs feels spongy and areas on either side of tail-head now have palpable fat cover. 6 - High Moderate - Firm pressure now needs toBJbe applied to feel spinous processes. A high degree of fat is palpable over ribs and around tail-head. 7 - Good - Cow appears fleshy and obviously carries considerable fat. Very spongy fat cover over ribs and around tail-head. In fact, “rounds” or “pones” beginning to be obvious. Some fat around vulva and in crotch. 8 - Fat - Cow very fleshy and over-conditioned. Spinous processes almost impossible to palpate. Cow has large fat deposits over ribs and around tail-head and below vulva. “Rounds” or “pones” are obvious. 9 - Extremely fat - Cow obviously extremely wasty and patchy and looks blocky. Tail-head and hips buried in fatty tissue and “rounds” or “pones” of fat are protruding. Bone structure no longer visible and barely palpable. Large fatty deposits might even impair animal’s mobility.

FEATURE Pregnancy rates at 20, 40 and 60 days of the breeding season for cows calving in BCS of 4 or less were 41, 67 and 84%, respectively; while for cows calving in BCS greater than 5 pregnancy rates were 52, 79 and 91%, respectively. Cows calving in BCS greater than 5 were also pregnant an average of 6 days sooner than cows calving in BCS of 4 or less. A final issue with BCS in mature cows is that it does not appear to matter how cows achieve a BCS of 5 by calving. A four state study (SC, OK, LA, AR) was conducted where diet was manipulated to create cows in an array of BCS from 2 through 8 at 90 days prior to calving. Those cows were then assigned to one of three groups based on BCS where thin cows were BCS 2, 3 and 4 (AVE = 3.6), moderate cows were BCS 5 and 6 (AVE = 5.5) and good cows were BCS 7 and 8 (AVE = 7.1). These groups were then fed during the last third of pregnancy so all cows would calve with a BCS of 5 (AVE = 5.1). Pre- calving BCS changes were 1.4, -0.4 and -2.0 units for cows initially in thin, moderate or good groups, respectively. Even with these dramatic prepartum changes in ADG and BCS, there were no differences in pregnancy rate among groups when all cows calved with BCS of 5. Hatfield Brangus

First calf, two-year-old cows can have reproductive rates comparable to mature cows but will require calving in a higher BCS.

FIRST-CALF-COWS

First calf, two-year-old cows can have reproductive rates comparable to mature cows but will require calving in a higher BCS. In a Louisiana study pregnancy rates for two-year-old cows calving with BCS of 4 and 5 were 65 and 71% respectively, while pregnancy rates for two-year-old cows calving with BCS of 6 and 7 were 87 and 91% respectively. Intervals from parturition to pregnancy were 92, 82, 74 and 76 days for first calf cows calving with BCS 4, 5, 6 and 7, respectively. An intense multi-state study (SC, OK, LA) was conducted with two-year-old beef cows where they calved in BCS 4, 5 or 6. Pregnancy rates improved with each improvement in BCS at parturition (Figure 4). Final pregnancy rates for a 60-day breeding season were 56, 80 and 96% for first calf cows calving with BCS 4, 5 and 6, respectively. These increased pregnancy rates due to increasing BCS were achieved with no increases in dystocia even though there were increases in birth weight of 3 to 4 pounds per increase in BCS. Figure 4.

FEATURE HEIFERS (PUBERTY)

A general rule of thumb for virgin yearling heifers is to have them weigh 65% of their mature weight prior to start of breeding. Actually, this concept can be refined based on the frame score of the heifer (Table 2). Frame score 2 heifers do indeed need to achieve 65% of their mature weight to have a high rate of cyclicity while 60% of mature weight would be appropriate for frame score 7 and 8 heifers. Economical management at least begs an awareness of these target weights and whether or not feeding systems can be designed to achieve these weights with some cost management. In some cases, feeding less resulting in a lower body weight and lower rates of cyclicity and retaining more heifers would have an economic advantage. Virgin yearling beef heifers achieving target weights represented in Table 2 would be in a BCS of 5 or 6.

WEIGHT GAIN AT BREEDING

Does weight gain or loss during the breeding season influence pregnancy (conception) rates? I believe so, you believe so (I think), but we do not have Table 2. Target weight concept: estimates of definitive data to be certain. weight at puberty by frame score. We absolutely have data including rates of gain during breeding does effect pregnancy rates in cows calving in BCS of 4 or less (or 5 or less for two-year-old cows). But, is this a 5) virgin yearling heifers at target weights indicated in Table 2 reflection of weight gain on conception rates or just increasing will be BCS = 5 or 6, BCS and therefore increasing estrous response so more cows are 6) if cows are gaining weight ever so slightly during breeding, bred and become pregnant? BCS at calving is a very reliable predictor of pregnancy. Certainly, there is anecdotal evidence to suggest that after 7) these basic beef cattle management principles will impact estrous cyclicity is established (virgin heifers) or reestablished synchronization of estrus/AI programs much more than which (postpartum cows); those cows “breed better” if gaining drug or protocol is utilized.

SUMMARY

In summary, we can make these assertions about BCS: 1) BCS = % Body Fat, 2) BCS is a reliable predictor of return to estrus, 3) threshold BCS for mature cows = 5, 4) threshold BCS for first-calf, two-year-old cows = 6,

At the recent annual meeting in houston, the iBBA membership voted 70 percent in favor of breeding up to Brangus from ultrablack cattle, an industry changing move that will propel the iBBA as the second-most important breed association immediately behind the Angus association. we will now be able to produce, in volume, bulls for the commercial cattleman with more thickness, muscling, and intramuscular fat than Angus bulls.

2

the second unprecedented opportunity presented to you is the ability to purchase ultrablack cattle from Crochet Cattle Co., the largest and oldest ultrablack operation which has a herd with more records in the iBBA database than anyone else in the world. Starting in 1995, Crochet Cattle Co. has bred the only herd of straight-bred ultrablacks with first, second, third, and now fourth generation ultrablacks to ultrablacks than anyone else.

we have never sold a female in 17 years as a registered female. Culling every female based on production performance, carcass performance, physical structure, muscle thickness, reproduction soundness, and milk production, along with perfect udder and teat placement. while mating through the years has been guided by the ability to measure both production and carcass performance, special interest was placed on low birth weight and high iMf scores. You can now purchase some of the very best ultrablack cattle from us at private treaty to use as the base of your ultrablack breeding up program. we have done 17 years of the hard work for you, so you do not have to. now you can take advantage of the results this program provides.

FEATURE Why You Should Conduct a Bull Breeding Soundness Exam

by John PATERSON, PhD EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF PRODUCER EDUCATION

N

ot all bulls are able to breed cows successfully, and not all bulls that breed cows have semen that can result in successful fertilization and pregnancy. Bulls in poor body condition may produce low quality semen and may not be aggressive breeders. If a bull can’t fertilize cows and you turn him out to breed, you likely will have excessive “open” cows at the end of the breeding season. The BSE is conducted on an annual basis at least 60-75 days before turn-out by a licensed veterinarian. Conducting the test during this period will allow time to replace any “unsound” animals and to retest any questionable animals. This means that if you implement a spring calving season and turn bulls out in late spring/early summer, you should be planning to do this in the very near future. Breeding soundness exams can uncover potential problems with young bulls that were just purchased and older bulls that already have sired calf crops. However, less than 20 percent of U.S. producers perform breeding soundness exams on their bulls prior to spring turnout. In a study from Clemson University, of 862 yearling bulls tested, 80.1% were classified as satisfactory potential breeders, 7.3% were classified as questionable potential breeders, and 12.7% as unsatisfactory potential breeders. Of the

84 | MAY 2013

bulls classified as unsatisfactory, 2.8% were so classified because of poor semen quality, but 41.3% had no ejaculate in 4 separate electro ejaculation attempts. Other abnormalities in these bulls included reproductive tract infections, testicular abnormalities, hernia, penile abnormalities, and eye abnormalities. The test doesn’t take long to conduct and basically involves three evaluations: 1) a structural soundness assessment; 2) a reproductive system evaluation; and 3) a semen quality appraisal. During the structural soundness assessment, the veterinarian examines the overall body condition of the animal including, feet, legs, eyes and teeth. Once the bull passes this initial inspection, the veterinarian will assess the scrotum, testicles and penis, while also conducting a rectal palpation to determine any internal abnormalities. They may also measure overall scrotal circumference to determine if minimum requirements are met and to determine if any changes have occurred since the previous year (if these records are available). Scrotal circumference is important due to its positive correlation with semen production and age of puberty in female offspring if heifers will be retained. The absolute minimum is 30 centimeters for yearling bulls, while anything greater than 34 centimeters would be considered acceptable for mature bulls. The third and final phase consists


FEATURE of semen collection, primarily via electro-ejaculation, and an evaluation of primary characteristics such as semen motility (i.e., activity and progressiveness), morphology (i.e., percent normal sperm cells) and overall sperm production. Managing the Newly Purchased Yearling Bull. The following management tips from Purdue University are helpful in managing the recently purchased yearling bull. • Supplement mature pasture or hay with grain/concentrate to keep the young bull growing and to maintain moderate (not fleshy) body condition • Limit him to 15-20 females during his first breeding season • Observe him mate with a few females to ensure that he has adequate libido and breeding ability • When you remove him from the breeding pasture, you may need to provide additional supplement to help regain body condition. • Something else to consider when doing the BSE: TRICH TESTING of Nonvirgin Bulls Trichomoniasis (Trich), is a venereal disease, can negatively affect reproductive performance of cows. This disease usually causes abortion within the first 4 months of pregnancy. If the bulls are removed after only a short breeding season, infected cows are typically open at pregnancy test time. Trich testing is something new that should be considered for all “experienced”, non-virgin bulls. Virgin bulls that have never been exposed to a breeding-age female will not be carrying this organism and do not need to be tested. However, “experienced” or non-virgin bulls of any age may potentially be carriers of Trich, Cows will usually clear up and breed back during a prolonged breeding season, producing a prolonged calving season. In many range cattle communities, trichomoniasis outbreaks are a major

concern. Awareness of and vigilance against trichomoniasis are certainly encouraged on the part of all beef producers. Trichomoniasis is caused by a one-celled protozoan that is found in the prepuce and sheath of bulls and reproductive tracts of cows. The protozoan resides in the little “pockets” (crypts) that line the sheath. Because older bulls generally have more crypts, they are more likely to carry the organism for a longer period of time. The organism kills the embryo or fetus, which is then expelled by the cow. The cow generally cycles two or three times and then regains fertility. This immunity will last about 1 year. However, most bulls over 3 years carry trichomoniasis indefinitely. In a few cases, a cow can remain a carrier, but the overwhelming majority of carriers are bulls. Producers should have breeding bulls tested annually for trichomoniasis. The veterinarian will collect some mucus from the sheath for analysis. Bulls testing positive should be culled from the herd. Bulls testing negative should be retested at a later date, particularly if the veterinarian suspects trichomoniasis as being related to breeding problems in the herd. Bulls should be tested for trichomoniasis well ahead of the breeding season to allow time to replace infected animals. Remember that without proper management of the cow herd, testing and removal of infected bulls will not completely eliminate the problem. Controlling trichomoniasis on communal grazing allotments can be difficult and must be a cooperative effort among producers because of the likelihood of herds commingling. Consequently, even though a producer may eliminate the problem in his or her herd, animals are likely to become infected by another producer’s infected bulls. BJ

MEMBERSHIP Brangus Association Members Pass Bylaw Change The International Brangus Breeders Association (IBBA) membership voted recently to pass the bylaw change pertaining to Ultrablack and Ultrared cattle by a 70 percent margin. After much debate and discussion, votes were cast to pass the amendment allowing IBBA members to breed up to Brangus utilizing Ultrablack and Ultrared animals. “This initiative will allow the incorporation of new Angus genetics into the Brangus population by an alternate method compared to the traditional process starting with Angus and Brahman as the first cross,” said Dale Kirkham, a member of the IBBA’s Breed Improvement Committee, in the December 2012 issue of the Brangus Journal. Like the traditional Angus x Brahman approach, using

Ultrablacks to breed up to Brangus will require three crosses to reach purebred status. Offspring of the first cross Ultrablacks (Angus x Brangus) mated back to Brangus (Ultrablack x Brangus) are genetically 3/4 Brangus. When these individuals are mated back to Brangus (3/4 Brangus x Brangus), their calves will be 7/8 Brangus and considered purebred Brangus. According to the amendment to Section I of Article V in the IBBA Bylaws, those animals will now be eligible for registration in the IBBA registry database. Members were allowed to vote by mail-in ballot until December 31, 2012, and in person at the IBBA business meeting Friday March 1, 2013.

Upgradng Ultrablacks and Ultrareds to Brangus

I

BBA members recently passed a bylaw change allowing Ultrablacks and Ultrareds to be upgraded to Brangus. This initiative will allow the incorporation of new Angus Genetics into the Brangus population by an alternate method to the traditional process of starting with Angus and Brahman as the first cross. The chart below demonstrates the mating program that will produce a Brangus from an Ultrablack or Ultrared.

The first step in upgrading to Brangus from Ultrablacks requires that an Angus animal is mated to a Brangus which will produce a 1/2 Brangus offspring. The second step requires that a 1/2 Brangus offspring be mated to a Brangus to produce a 3/4 Brangus Ultrablack. The third step requires that a 3/4 Brangus Ultrablack be mated to a Brangus, which would produce a registered Brangus. BJ

Vineyard, D.D.S., owner of Vineyard Cattle Company (VCC) in Wharton, Texas, was the recipient of this year’s award in recognition for more than 40 years of leadership and devotion to the breed, which still continues today. Vineyard was among the first breeders to utilize technologies such as embryo transfer, ultrasound, Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs), and his Breeding Up to Brangus program has allowed VCC to introduce productive new genetics. He has served the IBBA in numerous capacities and was a past recipient of the Breeder of the Year award in 1989.

BREEDER OF THE YEAR Bill Morrison of Clovis, N.M., was the recipient of the 2013 Breeder of the Year award. Morrison has been in the Brangus business for 32 years and has been a partner with Joe Paul and Rosie Lack for the past 21 years who together own and manage Lack-Morrison Brangus. Morrison was born in Silver City, N.M., and grew up on his family’s diary operation in Hanover, N.M. He obtained his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in agricultural education from New Mexico State University and has taught high school agriculture and been an FFA advisor for 35 years

and retired six years ago. Currently, the Lack-Morrison Brangus operation includes 100 registered cows and markets 25 to 30 bulls annually.

COMMERCIAL CATTLEMAN OF THE YEAR The 2013 Commercial Cattleman of the Year award was given to Frank Wesley “Wes” Williamson, III, a third generation cattleman from Florida. Williamson Cattle Company, where Williamson is president, is a 60-year-old family owned and operated diverse agriculture operation managing approximately 10,000 head of cattle on 75,000 acres on the ranch headquarters in Okeechobee, Fla., as well as on ranches in Alabama and Texas. Their beef cattle business is complemented by citrus operations in Florida and catfish production in Alabama. Williamson has received state and national recognition for his environmental stewardship, leadership abilities and service to the industry.

“I think we found three very deserving recipients for these awards,” said Larry Parker, Chairman of the Awards Committee. “We are pleased to be able to recognize them and their accomplishments.” Award recipients are nominated and selected by the IBBA Awards Committee and recognized annually at the IBBA Convention.

Carmen Ortiz 1927-2013

ormer long-time Brangus Publications, Inc. (BPI) and International Brangus Breeders Association (IBBA) employee Carmen Ortiz of Kingwood, Texas, passed away on February 26, 2013. Ortiz was born August 13, 1927, in New Jersey and was survived by her daughter and son-in-law Audrey and Greg Frank of Kingwood. A mass celebrating her life was held at Saint Martha’s Catholic Church in Kingwood on March 7, 2013. Ortiz joined the IBBA administrative department in June 1978 under the direction of IBBA executive vice president Roy Lilley. One year later she moved over to BPI and began work on the production of the Brangus Journal where she worked until 1990. After a brief stint on the switchboard, Ortiz moved back to the Journal as administrative assistant where she remained until her retirement in May 2005. A vital part of her job was supervising the Brangus Journal subscription maintenance and communicating with the U.S. Postal Service regarding postal regulations and compiling and filing annual postal reports. Ortiz was also instrumental in the preparation and production of sale catalogs and special service projects. Ortiz participated in a lot of changes in the publishing business during her tenure with Brangus. She helped publish the Brangus Journal during the days of the antiquated typesetting equipment, and she pasted up many pages of copy with a wax machine. She saw the BPI staff grow to numbers of eight and 10 and reduce to as few as two as desktop publishing was implemented. In 1999 Ortiz was very instrumental in researching and providing first hand knowledge in the preparation and production of the special commemorative issue of the Brangus Journal celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the IBBA. Ortiz maintained her employment with the association through the “good ‘ole days” of the early ‘80s and through the “rocky times” of the late ‘80s and

early ‘90s. She witnessed sales that averaged $40,000, and she heard the woes of breeders during the market depression. During her 27-year career, she worked for all but one of the executive vice presidents who served in the top leadership position for the breed. In addition to Lilley, Ortiz also worked under the supervision of Jerry Morrow, J. Neil Orth, Loren Jackson and Joe Massey. She also observed 27 IBBA members serve as president of the association.

He was born in Fredericksburg on April 3, 1930, to Ernst Reeh and Elizabeth Staudt Reeh and grew up in the Pilot Knob community of Gillespie County. He married LaVerne Juenke on Oct. 24, 1953, and the two enjoyed 59 years of marriage together. Tommy is survived by his wife, LaVerne; one brother Robbie Reeh and his spouse Carol of Harper; one sister-in-law, Beverly Reeh of Orange; four children and spouses, Cindy and Art Hansen of Highland Village, Danny and Peggy Reeh of Doss, Joann and Richard Rangel of Harper, and Neal and Penny Reeh of Comfort; five grandchildren and spouses, Ben Rangel of Tallahassee, Florida, Kaitlin Rangel, Travis Reeh, Elizabeth and Colby Gardner of Fredericksburg; Kassi and D.J.

In 1958, Tommy and LaVerne moved to Doss and started Tommy Reeh Garage and Grocery, which they operated for 42 years. They also farmed and ranched, raising Angora goats and beef cattle. In 1982, they began Reeh Brangus, which continues producing quality Brangus breeding stock. In addition to his work career, Tommy was actively involved in

civic organizations including the Doss Community Club, Doss School Board, and the Doss Volunteer Fire Department, of which he was a founding member. He was also an adult leader with the Boy Scouts Troop 132, a Trustee of Hill Country Memorial Hospital, on the St. Anthony’s Catholic Church Parish Council, a member of the St. Anthony’s Men’s Society, and a Director of the Mohair Council of America. Tommy was a passionate rancher and hunter, but his true treasures were family and friends (which included virtually everyone he met) and his faith in God. He was known for his unwavering work ethic, his ability to calmly resolve any problem, his gentle, soft-spoken manner and humor, and mainly his consistency in ‘doing the right thing’. A funeral mass was celebrated Tuesday, March 26, at 10 a.m. at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Harper with Fr. Michael Peinemann officiating.

SALE REPORT 2013 Professional Cattlemen’s Brangus Bull Sale Scores With Customers

T

hree inches of rain Friday and Saturday turned the Spitzer Ranch pens into mud slurry and had bulls coated with “mud fondue”, but friends and customers ignored the conditions to bid 24 yearling Brangus bulls to a solid $3,442 average. Conditions did decrease crowd size some, but the Spitzer’s hospitality had everyone in a good frame of mind as they kept attendees warm, dry, happy and well fed. Still buyers represented Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee, and the TELOAUCTION phone line was busy as several decided to stay warm at home and buy by-the-numbers from folk that have built a reputation on supplying genetics that work in the commercial beef industry. Spitzer Ranch has staked out the claim: “Providing genetics and services to enable cow-calf producers to be successful”. Their commitment to the needs of professional cattlemen with progressive beef operations has become well known throughout the Southeastern U.S. They have a reputation as the “go to” seedstock breeder for soundly developed, athletic, functional and durable bulls with the right genetics to put pounds on the ground and dollars in the pockets of their customers. If you ask Doc and Patricia what they are most proud of, “It’s that our customers are commercial cattlemen with well thought out profit objectives. When these very practical, profit driven commercial cattlemen will sit here and outbid the registered breeders for a bull, they must be absolutely convinced our bulls make them money.” The Spitzer family has more than 30 years of commitment to a selection program focused on driving birth weights down without any sacrifice in growth and further enhancing the well known Brangus female traits. The Spitzer Ranch exclusive Curve Bender Index (CBI) has certainly become the standard of excellence for identifying bulls siring calves with lowered birth weights and yet rapid gain to weaning and yearling ages. Ralph Pelaez, Okeechobee, Fla., set the pace with a final bid of $5,100 on the crowd pleaser SR Mohican Warrior Y164, a Bet-The-Ranch calving ease bull with a -3.3 BW EPD (top two percent rank) who posted no less than six EPDs ranking in the top 25 percent or better for Brangus Non-parents. Y164 was sired by the popular Spitzer Ranch bred TCB Catawba Warrior R532 and out of a cow sired by the Spitzer Ranch Trait Leader for BW EPD, SR Cadence Warrior S702. Another calving ease bull slid into the second slot with Pat Pfeil of McCarlton Partners, Arcadia, Fla., and Warthen, Ga., claiming SR Ottawa Warrior Y197 at $4,500. Out of the Spitzer’s

SR Medicine Man W415 sire, Y197 racked up no less than seven EPDs ranking in the top 20 percent or better. F l o r i d a breeders sure went after calving J. C. and JoAnne Bass and Doc Spitzer. BASS ease bulls as RANCH, INC Okeechobee, FL was the 2013 addition Richard Moore, to the SPITZER RANCH Customer Honor Roll. RAM Ranch, Winder mere, Fla., spent $4,300 to own SR Mohican Warrior Y179. Another TCB Catawba Warrior R532 son boasting an amazing -4.1 BW EPD with both BW and CED EPDs ranking in the top one percent and a YW EPD still ranking him in the top 30 percent. Y179 rounded out his statistics with an ultrasound of 13.3 sq. in. REA and 3.93 percent IMF. Another progressive beef operation was added to the Spitzer Ranch Customer Honor Roll with J. C. and JoAnne Bass, BASS RANCH, INC Okeechobee, Fla. The Bass family has been repeat bull customers, and J. C. and JoAnne have become friends who actively promote Spitzer Ranch and Brangus cattle in South Florida. They sure personify all ranchers who make the cattle business such a great industry. The Bass family and many more like them keep the Spitzers constantly striving to be better as suppliers of seedstock genetics to the cowboys and cowgirls who make a living in the commercial beef industry. The 2014 edition of the SPITZER RANCH PROFESSIONAL CATTLEMEN’S BRANGUS BULL SALE is scheduled Saturday, February 22, 2014. Be sure and mark your calendar right now so as not to miss out on an even better set of Brangus bulls to sell in 2014. If you wish to have your name added to their mailing list, call 864/972-9140, write SPITZER RANCH, 1511 HWY 59, Fair Play, SC, 29643 or send an email note to spitzeranch@ mindspring.com.

SALE REPORT Genetrust at Suhn Cattle Co. 20th Anniversary Bull Sale 106 Brangus bulls averaged $5,343 38 Ultrablack bulls averaged $5,518

A

n unexpected snow storm that left roads blocked Sunday morning brought much needed moisture and did not deter either registered or commercial breeders from attending the 20th Anniversary Sale of Suhn Cattle Company, a partner in the GENETRUST marketing alliance. The day of the sale, March 26, found roads passable and a packed crowd of cattle enthusiasts evaluating the offering. Comments from the buyers suggested this was definitely the most impressive and uniform set of bulls ever presented at Suhn Cattle Company. The sale began with lot 75, Suhn’s Foundation 331Z28, a bull bred by Vernon and Vicki Suhn, Suhn Cattle Company, Eureka, Kan. He was by GR Swift 209W3, a son of the high IMF producer Lambert of Brinks, and out of a full sister to the great maternal sire Suhn’s Next Step 331R7. This extraordinary standout is big boned, deep ribbed with top end performance and has a great disposition. With rankings in the top four percent for yearling weight, top five percent for rib eye area and the top 10 percent for weaning weight, he captivated the eye of many. The bidding was intense from ringside, DVAuction and via the telephone. The winning bid was captured by Double W Ranch, David and Nada Wood, Houston, Texas, for $66,000 for half interest and possession. The second high selling individual was lot 164, Suhn’s Rembrandt 919Z8. His sire, Suhn’s Advantage 331T5, is a member of the ABS Global Brangus Sire roster, and his dam is a daughter of Suhn’s Next Step 331R7. Rembrandt not only ranks in the top five percent of the breed for yearling weight, top 10 percent for weaning and scrotal, plus a top 20 percent for REA, but also was impressive with his eye-catching phenotype. This herd sire prospect was purchased for $35,000 for half interest and possession by TJM Ranch, Jack and Peggy Moore, Kerrville, Texas. The next high selling lot attracted considerable attention due to the bylaw change passed by the International Brangus Breeders Association (IBBA) membership. This rule change

allows top-crossing Ultrablacks back to 7/8 Brangus and those resulting animals being registered as Brangus. This Ultrablack bull, lot 148, Suhn’s-RYR Fusion 894Z5, was one of the first to be offered at public auction that fit this criterion. Bred by Suhn Cattle Company, he was purchased by Robert Yates Ranch, Hamptonville, N.C., for $20,000. The Ultrablack bulls continued to draw attention as in past years. This year’s Ultrablack offering included more than twice as many bulls as Suhn Cattle Company has sold in the past years. Nevertheless, this did not diminish the strong demand that was seen rapidly building from customers. Another highlight Ultrablack bull was bred by Dale and Nancy Kirkham, Eureka, Kan., and sold for $15,000 to GENETRUST partner Randy Schmidt, Schmidt Farms, Texarkana, Texas. Lot 96, KB Dakota Gold 402Z2, combined great ratios in his contemporary group; plus, impressive phenotype of thickness of topline and rear quarter coupled with outstanding base width. Buyers represented 13 states from Florida to California. The average for the Brangus bulls was $5,343, and the Ultrablack average was $5,518. Volume buyers were Frosty Tipton, Winnemucca, Nev.; Wayne Ammons, Roveline, La.; and the Seminole Tribe of Florida. BJ At right, David Wood of Double W Ranch in Houston, Texas, purchased the high selling bull, Suhn’s Foundation 331Z28, in the 20th Anniversary Suhn Cattle Company Bull Sale.

Combining this elite group of reproductive experts under one roof will benefit all of the technologies in our reproductive toolbox.” ViaGen will now operate as a wholly owned division of Trans Ova Genetics.
