MULTI-BREED CALVING EASEThe multi-breed calving ease EPDs are here! You will now see a number for calving ease (CE) and maternal calving ease (MCE) for the SimAngusanimals. Please notice that the base changed for the MCE. Which just means that the average is different than before, so make sure to take noteof the new average. Here are the current EPD averages for the Purebreds and the SimAngus:

The American Simmental Association and the American Red Angus Association have become partners for the purpose of EPD calculation. Inorder to make it easier for the customers, they have agreed to work on the same base, so this summer, watch for the EPDs to be on a new base.

The only thing you have to think about is to remember to look at the EPD averages to be able to compare the EPDs of each animal to the newaverage. It will not change the spread between any bulls or the meaning of each EPD. The base number will just be different for each trait. It willactually make it easier to compare animals across breeds.

To see the entire percentile tables for the purebreds and the hybrids, log on to www.simmental.org. *Note the EPDs in the catalog are Simmental and NOT Angus. Compare GCCR cattle EPDs to the Simmental breed average not the Angus whichare different.

DISPOSITIONQuiet cattle with good disposition are a No. 1 requirement around here. We cull strictly and eliminate any animal at any stage if they are nervous or difficult to handle. Calves are socialized from an early age and

handled in a quiet and easy manner. And don’t let anybody tell you that a cow has to be aggressive to be a good mother. Most of our cows are gentle but will also be very protective of a newborn. Now studies have

come out citing increased pregnancy rates with docile cattle. We have been seeing the studies showing that quiet calm cattle gain better and more efficiently in the feedlots. Thus there is an economic payoff to docility

along with the pleasure and increased safety of working with easy cattle.

With feed costs high, in today’s cattle feeding environment , you need an animal that will perform efficiently and hang a carcassthat will generate premiums above “average” cattle. We have been feeding Gengenbach Cattle Co calves for the last six yearsand they have proven that they can do both. The gains are well above the yard average and the conversions are as well. Wehave been marketing these cattle through the US Premium Beef grid in the spring and early summer. This grid works well for cattlethat grade choice and dress above the plant average as do the Gengenbach cattle. The disposition of the cattle is excellent whichmakes everyones’ job easier. It has been a pleasure feeding Randy and Mary Jo’s cattle.

Herd Bull purchased from Bata Brothers in North Dakota. A growth bull out of the old Top Cut, the #1 bull in the breed for growth. Our TopCut is one of the top 6 bulls in Active sires for both weaning and Yearling EPDs. His calves are always the top growth and depending on

dam may be bigger framed. One thing we really like is that Top Cut is so sound and problem free having run with cows ever since we gothim. We are keeping all of his daughters. Use his sons on cows and you will not have any problems.

Hisdaughters are making good cows with plenty of milk. We can use him on anything including heifers. Con Air sons are very consistent as are his daughters.

HEALTH STATEMENTIt is our desire that bulls and females purchased from GENGENBACH CATTLE will have a long and productive life. With thatgoal in mind we have implemented the following protocol:

All sale animals are ear notch tested for BVD and to this date no positive animals have been detected. All breeding femalesreceive a pre breeding vaccination with a modified live BVD vaccine to help prevent BVD persistently infected calves. Atpreg check cows are given killed vaccine for BVD, BRSV, IBR, Vibrio and Lepto. Calves receive vaccine for BVD, BRSV, IBR,Pasteurella and Clostridium in the spring and at pre weaning and weaning. Cattle are dewormed in the fall with Dectomaxinjectable and treated for lice and grubs at that time also. Sale bulls and heifers will be poured with Dectomax prior to sale.

This year we are offering some very special Registered heifers. Many of these heifers could show or raise bulls for you but all will make good cows. All heifers havepassed a breeding soundness exam and had appropriate vaccinations and pour by Dr. Troy Worth. Heifers sell in catalog order.

Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDsare the most accurate and effective toolavailable for comparing genetic levels. Inusing EPDs, the difference between twosires’ EPDs represents the unit difference ex-pected in the performance of their progeny.For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of+10 and –5, a 15-unit difference would be ex-pected in their progeny (moving from -5 to+10 yields 15 units). Key to using EPDs isknowing what units they are expressed in.For example, if the above case referred toweaning weight EPDs, A would be expectedto sire 15-pounds more weaning weight thanB. If calving ease were the trait, A would beexpected to sire 15-percent more unassistedbirths in first-calf heifers; in other words, ifB sired 30 assists in a group of 100 heifers,we’d expect A to require 15 assists. A per-centile-ranking chart is required to deter-mine where a bull’s EPDs rank him relativeto other bulls in the breed. For percentilerankings or more detailed information aboutEPDs and $ indexes visitwww.simmental.org. Listed below are theunits ASA EPDs are expressed in:

All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposedunder an all-purpose-sire scenario. (Seebelow for more details.)

Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat.Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight.Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births

when used on heifers.Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight.Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unas-

sisted births in first-calving daughters. Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk.Marbling (MRB): Marbling score.Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of

weaning weight due to milk and growth.Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye.Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of

force required to shear a steak.Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remain-

ing in the cowherd at 6 years of age. Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed

under a terminal-sire scenario. (See belowfor more details.)

Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight.Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score.

$ Indexes: Though EPDs allow for the comparisonof genetic levels for many economically impor-tant traits, they only provide a piece of the eco-nomic puzzle. That’s where $ indexes comein. Through well-conceived, rigorous mathe-matical computation, $ indexes blend EPDsand economics to estimate an animal’s overallimpact on your bottom line. The same technol-ogy that led to the dramatic progress in swine,poultry and dairy genetics over the last sev-eral decades was used to develop the following$ indexes:

All-Purpose Index (API): Evaluates sires for useon the entire cow herd (bred to both Angusfirst-calf heifers and mature cows) with theportion of their daughters required to main-tain herd size retained and the remainingheifers and steers put on feed and sold gradeand yield.

Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sire for use on ma-ture Angus cows with all offspring put on feedand sold grade and yield.

Using API and TI: First, determine which index touse; if you’re keeping replacements use API, ifnot, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in onthe unit difference between bulls. (As de-scribed above, index units are in dollars percow exposed.) The difference can be used todetermine how much a bull is worth comparedto another. Or, put another way, how muchyou can pay for one bull compared to another.For example, when buying an all-purpose-typesire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a+50bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A per-centile-ranking chart is required to determinewhere a bull’s index value ranks him relativeto other bulls in the breed.
