TOTAL LIVESTOCK GENETICS BULL

VISIT POLICYTLG has been very accommodating to visitors in the past, but with the higher number of bull collections and high demands of bio-security a new visitation policy is now in place.

TLG will hold an annual bull viewing day.

Other visits to view bulls at TLG must be made with the bull owners. TLG requires 14 days notice and bull owners must attend with the visitors.

Welcome to the 2104-15 Sire Directory

2013-14 was another good year and we thank you, the Australian cattle breeder, for your support. Once again ABS Australia achieved No1 Company for the highest beef semen sales in this country.

ABS Australia continues to search the globe for new genetics. This years directory includes 5 new Angus sires from the USA, a belted Galloway and a Highland bull from the UK. Additional bulls include, Charolais, Limousin, Poll Hereford and Simmentals. ABS Australia

has also continued to invest in Australian beef sires.

Our motto investing locally and thinking globally is at the forefront with the ongoing export of semen from 10 breeds to 22 countries and all continents of the globe.

To provide more information to breeders there is a planned upgrade of the Beef section of the ABS website which will include more video content and a regular email newsletter. You will be able to subscribe to the newsletter via the ABS website or contact Bill Cornell.

Each year has its challenges! In the past year breeders have had to deal with the announcement and testing protocols of genetic defects as well as major changes to the EBVs for calving ease and carcass traits. In the future we can expect changes to the formulas and values of the $ Indexes.

The recommendation to breeders is to look wider at pedigrees and also to look at the wider use of sires. At ABS Australia we suggest a ratio of 70-80% of proven sires and 20-30% of new young sires to seek new lines of genetic improvement. Another tip is to use bulls from great cow lines to further build your herds maternal lines. Building a cow herd can be like building a house with one good brick at a time!

At ABS Australia we do much research and travelling to source different breeds, more diverse bloodlines and bulls that offer the extreme in one or two traits. During April I travelled, with a group, to New Zealand to review progeny and sires of the Angus breed. The group returned truly satisfied with the soundness and progeny of Matauri Reality. [Photo page 28]

An extensive trip in to USA in July included 8 States, 4 A.I. Centres, I ET Facility and 14 herds Angus, Limousin and Simmental. Thank you to the ABS team in USA for facilitating the visits and their hospitality. The purpose of the tour was to view dams, siblings and progeny of the current ABS Angus sires. The visit highlighted the genetic worth of the sires Complement, Reserve, Trust, Black Pearl and Tour of Duty. All are includes in this Directory. The tour group chose EF Complement as the stand-out bull. Proceed, the No 2 Angus sire for marbling, is new to this Directory and provides the opportunity to add carcass genetics to your herd.

To assist breeders to select sires we have expanded the use of the EBV charts and have also changed the format of the USA Angus EPD charts. These are now similar to the EBV charts i.e. working from the herd average and using the same colour code. In the Angus section [page 17], we have added tables for the bull rankings in 8 traits based on Australian EBVs to assist in genetic selections.

Breeding cattle has its times of excitement, challenge and passion! Building a herd relies on a strong focus and direction. When selecting bulls remember adding genetics will move your herd forward. It is also about balance and using time-proven genetics. Many great sires have been solid in nearly all traits and not an extreme in any particular trait, however there are also the times when its possible to take a leap with a bull extreme in a trait or an unproven bull.

At ABS Australia we are dedicated to assisting cattle breeders by providing the information and commentary on the pros and cons of sires. No sire is perfect and the challenge is to get the best out of the sire selected.

For further information please contact Bill Cornell, an ABS representative or a semen reseller. Contact information is on the page 28/ back cover of the Directory.

Emperor is a rare gem indeed, he covers all the bases for the Australian Angus industry; being EBVs, Structure, Phenotype and Docility

He ranks in the top 1% for 10 traits with 2697 progeny in 136 herds and 1161 scans and still has positive fats, high RBY and CE

Actual data, Emperor ran in a contemporary group of 401 bulls, he was the heaviest weight and biggest EMA scanned bull. He ranked equal 9th for Scrotal Size, equal 12th for IMF scan and was equal highest for Rib Fat. He ran with 40 open females, and backed up another 60 females for 6 weeks from 16 months old and returned to be the equal heaviest sale weight bull!

His CE and short gestation assure his ability to calve on heifers, yet his BW shows the calves will grow, a rare combination

Beef Class Structural Assessment SystemStructural problems in cattle have a substantial effect on both the reproductive and growth performance of a beef herd. It is widely recognised that structural problems in sires have detrimental effects on conception rates, calving patterns and thus profitability. Similarly, females with inadequate structural characteristics are more prone to weaning lighter calves or conceiving later in the breeding season than their more functional counterparts. These structural problems are filtered through the supply chain resulting in reduced income for the producer, feedlot and thus reducing the overall productivity of the Australian Beef Industry.

The current trend for improving consistency and quality has shifted producers focus, towards selecting seedstock on carcass and growth genetic traits (EBVs). Whilst, this selection has been, and will continue to be pivotal in developing the Australian beef industry, we must not forget the fundamentals of livestock breeding.

The Beef Class Structural Assessment System was designed by the MLA, the BIA and several breed societies to address structural problems in the beef industry. Detailed analysis of three thousand genetically linked herds indicated that structural characteristics such as leg and foot structure were moderately to highly heritable. BEEFXCEL now services many seedstock operations in their selection and grading of stock using the Beef Class Structural Assessment System.

The 2007 Wyuna Sale Bulls and heifer herd have been independently structurally assessed to maximise the quality of stock on offer. Any animals deemed inadequate have been removed from the sale draft. The 2008 Wyuna sale animals were assessed by Liam Cardile of BEEFXCEL on 8 November 2007.

How to use The Beef Class Structural Assessment SystemThe Beef Class Structural Assessment System uses a 1-9 scoring system for feet and leg structure:

A score of 5 is ideal. (Note: Temperament Score of 1 is preferable).

A score of 4 or 6 shows slight variation from ideal, but this includes most animals. An animal scoring 4 or 6 would be acceptable in any breeding program.

A score of 3 or 7 shows greater variation but would be acceptable in most commercial programs. However, seedstock producers should be vigilant and understand that this score indicates greater variation from ideal.

A score of 2 or 8 are low scoring animals and should be looked closely before purchasing.

A score of 1 or 9 should not be catalogued and are considered culls.

For More Information Please Visit the C2C webpage on www.c2cbeef.com.au or Call Jim Green on 0402 003 137 or Liam Cardile on 0409 572 570.

Group Breedplan EBVsEstimated Breeding Values (EBVs)The EBV is the best estimate of an animals genetic merit for that trait.

Calving EaseEBVs are based on calving ease (CE) scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

DIR Direct calving ease indicates how well the animal influences the birth of its progeny.

DTRS Daughters calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.

BirthGL Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicates easier calving and increased growth after birth.

BWT Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

FertilitySS Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Higher (positive) EVBs indicate higher fertility. SS is also

positively associated with female fertility.

DC Days to Calving EBV (days) is an indicator of female fertility based on the time between a cows first exposure to a bull and when she subsequently calves. Cows that calve late in the season or fail to calve are penalised. This is more useful as a sire trait. Lower (negative) EBVs are preferred indicating shorter days to calving for the sires daughters.

GrowthMilk 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animals milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughters milking ability as it affects the

200 day weight of their calves.

200W 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animals genetic merit for growth to early ages.

The trend across almost every breed today is to identify genetics with spread between the antagonistic traits of Birth and Yearling. It just doesnt happen, the genes for those traits have to be in place like RB Tour of Duty 177. Selected as the $55,000 record-selling bull at the 2012 Minnesota Bull Test Sale at Jackson, MN.Outstanding performance with a powerful phenotype has been his calling card from the get go plus the potential for high carcass weight make him the growth bull to hang your hat on.Tour of Duty was a sensation on display at the 2013 National Western Stock Show, showcasing his exceptional length, dimension, soundness, bone and hip. Few bulls his age even dared walking down the aisle.Great cows seem to always find a way to influence great herds and tremendous herd sires. His 10-year-old dam, BA Lady 6807 305, is now one of the top WW EPD in the breed at +78. She posts 4 BWR 96, 4 NR 110, 1 YR 109.A maternal brother to the ORIgen featured sire RB Active Duty 010 and a flush sister was the $17,000 Lot 1 and high-selling female in the 2013 Riley Bros. Production Sale.A maternal sister, RB Lady Standard 305-890, is already the top BW to YW spread dam in the Angus breed and she had a son that was the top-indexing bull at the 2013 Midland Bull Test. Her first seven daughters at public auction averaged $28,000 with $516,000 in revenue over three short years.When it comes to high weaning and yearling outliers without lots of birth grief,Tour of Duty hits the bullseye.2014 Inspection - Tour of Duty is an amazing phenotypic larger framed bull. He parades with a bold strong stride, head held proudly high. He displays an amazingly docile nature. His overall structure and soundness is great.A visit to Riley Bros to see his family line and progeny really stamped Tour of Duty as the standout big bull of the tour, and it is many a year since a bull of his type has been sourced.
