Important Notice to VendorsARRIVAL OF STOCK - As per timetable of events (page 6).

PRE-SALE INSPECTION: Every animal will be subject to a full veterinary inspection and panel inspec-tion. All animals have been On-Farm Society Inspected. Animals infected by the contagious diseased ringworm etc, will not be accepted for sale unless accompanied by a vet’s certificate indicating that treatment has been given and the condition is no longer contagious. The inspection will be co-ordi-nated by the stewards who will require animals to be brought before the appointed inspector. The inspectors decision will be final and binding. Any animal which fails any part of the pre-sale inspection, will have their ticket red spray marked. These animals will be eligible to remain in their allocated pens but must not have their spray marked numbers removed. Any vendor or his representative failing to comply with this will be subject to disciplinary action by the Society.

Estimated Breeding Value (EBV’s) - All animals entered will automatically have Breedplan information published in the sale catalogue. All entries must have the following qualifying figures - breed average terminal and SR indexes as of -01/02/12 Terminal index-+59 and Self Replacing index+65.

All entries must be from Performance Recording Herds.UDDERS - The attention of Purchasers is drawn to the fact that the British Simmental Cattle Society’s Conditions of Sale, in common with other Beef Breed Societies, do NOT include a specific warranty that females are sold as being “sound” in udder and teats. All known udder faults will, however, be announced.

TATTOO MARKS/UK TAGS - All cattle entered for the Sale will have their tattoo marks/UK Tags exam-ined as an integral part of the pre sale inspection procedure. Any marks found to have faulty, incorrect or illegible marks will be REJECTED from the Sale. Vendors are therefore urged, in their own best interests, to examine the tattoo marks of Sale cattle before the animal(s) leave their farm, so that faulty marks can be rectified in accordance with the required Society procedures.

DNA TYPING OF STATED SIRES WHEN SELLING FEMALES IN CALF

As from 1st October 2008 it will be the Vendor’s responsibility to have a Sire DNA typed if the vendor is selling Females in-calf to a stated sire. If the Sire is no longer available and has not been DNA typed it is the Vendor’s responsibility to declare this in the Sales catalogue. (This rule also applies to Private Sales).

To clarify: if a Sire is not DNA typed the Society cannot register his progeny. To obtain a sire profile without the sire, 5 progeny and their dams have to be DNA typed, this is 10 DNA profiles at a cost of £23.10 + VAT each. The purchaser must be made aware by the vendor of the potential registration problems and costs.

RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals. The auctioneers reserve the right to charge half commission on the amount of the final bid in the case of animals which fail to reach the Vendors reserve price.

SOCIETY LEVY - A Special Levy of 1½% of the sale price (after deduction of commission) will be charged by the Society in respect of all sales. Such levy will be deducted from the proceeds of sale by the Auctioneers before settlement.

All animals will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission of 5% will be charged by the Auc-tioneers on all sales. No animal may be sold privately before being passed through the auction ring and FULL COMMISSION will be charged on the sale of any animal sold by private treaty after the auc-tion. All such transactions MUST BE PASSED THROUGH THE AUCTIONEERS OFFICE.

UNDERSTANDING THE BREEDPLAN PERFORMANCE RECORDING

INFORMATION IN THIS CATALOGUE

Only British Simmental GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can be validly

compared between herds.

ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)

The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait and they are to be

used as a tool to assist in the selection of sires, the visual appearance remains very

important.

ACCURACY

An accuracy value is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of

information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the

lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that

animal or it's relatives.

CALVING EASE Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length

information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

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

Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s calves to

be born unassisted from 2 year old heifers. The EBVs are reported as differences in the

percentage of unassisted calvings.

Higher, more positive, Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull with

an EBV of +5.0% would be expected, on average, to produce 3% fewer difficult calvings from

2 year old heifers than a bull with an EBV of –1.0% (6% difference between the sires, then

halved as they only contribute half the genetics). Cow condition is a significant factor on the

ability and ease of calving.

DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have

easier calving.

Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s

daughters to calve at 2 years of age without assistance. The EBVs are also reported as

differences in the percentage of unassisted calvings.

Higher, more positive, Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull

with an EBV of +4.0% would be expected to on average produce daughters that have 3% less

calving problems when calving at 2 years of age than the daughters of a bull with an EBV of –

2.0%. Continued use of sires with easy calving daughters may reduce the size of the cows

and average pelvic area in the herd

11

BIRTH AND FERTILITY

GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate

shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth.

For example, a bull with a Gestation Length EBV of –2 days would be expected to produce

calves that are born earlier, and more easily, than a bull with a Gestation Length EBV of +2

days.

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. Birth Weight EBVs are

expressed in kilograms (kg) and are calculated based on weights of calves taken at birth.

Small, or moderate, Birth Weight EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull with a Birth

Weight EBV of +2 kg would be expected to produce lighter calves at birth than a bull with a

Birth Weight EBV of +6 kg, with a lower risk of a difficult birth.

Please note, whilst low Birth Weight EBVs are favoured for calving ease they are also

generally associated with lower overall growth potential. Consequently, birth weight and

growth need to be carefully balanced. Fortunately, animals can be found that have both

moderate Birth Weight EBVs and above average EBVs for later growth.

SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and

quantity.Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. Increased scrotal circumference is

associated with increased semen production in bulls, and earlier age at puberty of bull and

heifer progeny. Increased scrotal circumference also has a favourable relationship with days

to calving, such that bulls with larger scrotal circumference tend to have daughters with

shorter days to calving. For example, a bull with a Scrotal Size EBV of +4 cm would be

expected to produce sons with larger testicles at yearling age and daughters that reach

puberty earlier than the progeny of a bull with a Scrotal Size EBV of -4 cm.

GROWTH

MILK: 200 Day Milk EBVs are estimates an animal's maternal effect on the 200 day

weight of its calf. In the case of sires, this estimates the maternal effect that his daughters

will have on the 200 day weight of their progeny. The 200 Day Milk EBV is expressed as

kilograms (kg) of calf live weight at 200 days (ie. the expected difference in the weight of the

calf at 200 days due to the maternal effect (milk) of the cow). The 200 Day Milk EBV is

calculated by partitioning the difference in the 200 day weight of calves into growth and milk

components.

The optimum level of milk production potential among beef cows is dependent upon the

production system and environment in which the cows are run. Selection for increased milk

production may be warranted when cows are run under good nutritional conditions and

calves are sold as weaners. However, some environments may not support high milking

cows.

12

Larger, more positive, 200 Day Milk EBVs are generally more favourable, depending on the

environment. For example, a bull with a 200 Day Milk EBV of +15 kg would be expected to

sire daughters with higher milk production than a bull with 200 Day Milk EBV of +5 kg. This

higher milk production potential should be reflected through higher weaning weights among

the daughter's calves.

200: 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 animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages.

400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and

500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of

an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.

600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and

900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of

an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

CARCASE

CWT: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard

age of 650 days.

EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2

) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg

dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals. Larger, more positive,

EMA EBVs are generally more favourable. For example, a bull with an EMA EBV of +4 cm2

would be expected to produce steer progeny with a greater degree of muscle expression

than a bull with an EMA EBV of +1 cm2

.

RIB: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg

dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a

percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield

for the 300kg carcase size.

Terminal Index

The BSCS Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Simmental bulls over large framed,

mixed breed cows to breed steers and heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. All progeny are

destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some

emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 630 kg live weight (335 kg carcase weight)

using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase.

Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate

emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing

calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 16 months of age. The index is

focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to

breeding replacement females.

If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis

on a higher calving ease direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.

13

Self Replacing Index

The BSCS Self Replacing index is aimed at a Simmental herd selecting replacement females from

within the herd while breeding steers and excess heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. There is

emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while also looking to finish steers for slaughter at

around 680 kg live weight (350 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system

supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase.

This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Simmental sires over mixed breed cows where

replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed

in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing

extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth

weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour.

Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of

selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter.

15.1 RULE 15 - SALES Preliminary: the subjoined rules are prescribed for the use of members of the

Society who may be desirous of adopting them and are applicable to sales of The British Simmental cattle by auction. They shall, in any case, be applicable to all collective sales held under the auspices of the Society and shall be applied and enforced by Auctioneers appointed by the Society to organise and conduct such sales.

Only full members of the Society are eligible to sell cattle at Official Society Sales and are bound by the rules governing these sales.

15.2 SALES COMMISSIONS 1) At official sales, which are classified as a production, reduction or dispersal

sale the auctioneers will collect on behalf of the Society 1.5% of the total income of the registered cattle sold.

2) At official sales, which are classified as collective sales all animals will be sold in guineas. The Society will collect as a commission a percentage of the guinea as agreed with the appointed auctioneer prior to the sale.

15.3 AUCTION RULES15.3.1 The advertisements and catalogues of sale shall state plainly that the sale is

to be held under the British Simmental Cattle Society Auction Sale Rules and subject to recommended Conditions of Sale of the National Beef Association.

15.3.2 In all published particulars of female animals to be sold, the Auctioneers shall state the date of the last service in the catalogue of sale, or at the time of sale. In the event of a cow or heifer having been running with a bull, the date of both the commencement and the termination of the running period must be stated and in the event of a cow or heifer having been inseminated by two or more bulls, or by the same bull at different heat periods, the names of all such bulls and the dates of service or insemination must be given.

NB: If there is an interval of less than three weeks running period and an individual service or insemination by different bulls, Vendors must ensure that all bulls concerned are DNA profiled at the time of use so that, in the event of any question as to the identity of the sire of any calf being raised by a Purchaser after the sale, a DNA profile check can be arranged by the Society on the Purchaser’s behalf, but at the expense of the Vendor, to prevent the necessity of cancellation or refusal of registration which otherwise might result. Arrangements for the DNA profiling of the bulls concerned should be made through the Society so that records can be kept of all details, both by the Society and the DNA Profiling Centre.

15.3.3 The minimum selling age for bulls entered in Official Collective Society Sales is 14 months. The maximum showing age is 2 years old.

15.3.4 An animal cannot be substituted into a collective sale after the catalogue for that sale has been printed.

15.3.5 Vendors whose animals have been officially weight-recorded by Breedplan will have the full range of EBV’s and Society Index Information published in the catalogue of sale to the following criteria:

It will be necessary to birth weigh calves and have a scan and authenticated weight done around 400 days (300-500). For EBV figures to be published in Society sale catalogues and on display cards at the Society Sales.

Bulls born after 1st June 2008 will have to be scanned and calves born after 1st March 2009 will have to be weighed at birth (the official tape measure weight will be accepted).. Additionally an animal under one year of age will be eligible to have figures printed if it has any breedplan recorded weights.

Apart from the publication of Breedplan recorded data in the catalogue of sale, no other unofficial data may be given at the time of sale and Vendors are not permitted to display unofficial or non-authenticated data in the sale premises or on the lairage pens.

15.3.6 In all cases where a female has been flushed for embryo transplant purposes such fact must be stated on the entry form and will be printed in the catalogue.

15.3.7 All pedigree animals catalogued for sale that have Graded or Polled status will have their status and pedigree clearly printed in the catalogue.

15.3.8 Where a registered Simmental female is entered in a sale as being in calf, the catalogue will clearly state the service sire details.

15.3.9 All statements made in the sale catalogue are the entire responsibility of the Vendor.

15.3.10 A Dispersal Sale means the selling of all live Simmental cattle and embryos owned by the member dispersing the herd. Breeders holding a Dispersal Sale may retain bulls for sale providing they are sold within six months of the original Dispersal Sale date. Any bulls to be retained for this purpose must be declared in the Sale Catalogue. Breeders may also retain cattle semen for future use and sale providing all details of this are declared in the Sale Catalogue.

NB: If any other cattle are to be retained by the vendor then the sale will be classed as a Reduction Sale and not a Dispersal Sale.

The Herd Prefix ceases immediately after the Dispersal Sale is completed but membership will not cease until the current Subscription year, relevant to sale, ends. A review of the Sale will be carried out by the Society office once the sale information has been received from the Auctioneers. New membership is only required if the member wishes to set up a new herd prefix. Associate membership is available for those wanting to continue to receive The Annual Review and Newsletters.

15.3.11 The name and address of the Vendor (if more than one Vendor, the names and addresses of each Vendor, together with a clear indication of which Lots in the catalogue belong to each Vendor) shall be stated in the catalogue of sale.

15.3.12 If a bull from which semen has been taken and stored is offered for sale it must be stated in the catalogue whether the semen so stored is to pass with the bull or whether it is to be retained by the Vendor. Breeder guarantees shall not apply to sales of stored semen.

15.3.13 No animal at a dispersal sale (as distinct from a collective sale) shall be offered subject to a reserve bid, the sale of an animal privately prior to the auction is not permitted, nor shall the Vendor bid directly or indirectly for any animal except through the Auctioneers. If, at any time within 3 months after the date of sale any animal offered and bid for at the sale, and not offered subject to a reserve bid, shall be upon the Vendor’s premises or exhibited at any show in his name, except for good reason to be established to the satisfaction of, and approved by the Council of the Society, the fact shall be deemed conclusive evidence that the Vendor has committed a breach of these Rules.

15.3.14 Members may enter an animal in two or more Official Collective Society Sales, during the same sale season, subsequent to animal movement restrictions in force at the time of sale.

15.3.15 Any animal entered for sale, which is a twin or is otherwise one of a multiple birth must be so described in the catalogue. If it is a twin this description shall state whether it is twin to a bull or a heifer and if it is otherwise one of a multiple birth this description shall state the sex of the other calves. A heifer that is twin with a bull or is otherwise one of a multiple birth which includes a bull calf cannot be entered for sale until she has been certified pregnant by a Veterinary Surgeon, except in a dispersal sale in which case it shall be stated in the catalogue of sale that the sale of the twin animal is subject to the Society’s Rules and Conditions.

15.3.16 All calves offered for sale must be identified in accordance with the Society’s regulations and must have been registered or birth notified with the Society by the Vendor, or the entry must have been lodged with the Manager of the Society. The Auctioneers shall have power to deduct from the sale proceeds a sum of money sufficient to cover the costs of such registration or notification in the BSCS Herd Book, if such cost or fees have not been paid by the Vendor at the time of sale. Calves at foot can be sold as Birth Notified.

15.3.17 The Auctioneers shall furnish to the Society, within one week of the sale, a detailed summary of the sale showing the price of each individual Lot sold, the price bid for each individual Lot unsold by reason of failure to reach the stated reserve price, the full name and address of each purchaser and the average price realised for each distinct class of animal sold. Such summary list shall also include full details of any addition, amendment or correction to any of the details printed in the catalogue.

15.3.18 Members electing to sell their cattle subject to these Rules shall have the option of offering their animals subject to the rules governing the importation of bovines into all countries. Such an option must be indicated by the Vendor in the catalogue of sale.

N.B. Animals, which are offered for export sale, are the subject of special conditions, which are binding upon both Vendor and Purchaser.

15.3.19 In the case of any animal to be sold that has been involved in any way in the process of embryo transplant the following information shall be clearly stated in the catalogue of sale:-

(a) In the case of an animal whose birth is as a result of embryo transplant the fact shall be clearly stated.

(b) In the case of a female that has been flushed for embryo transplant purposes, it shall be clearly stated in the catalogue for sale:

[i] how many times she has been flushed; [ii] how many embryos have been implanted; [iii] how many embryos have been frozen but not yet implanted.15.3.20 For production, reduction and Collective Sales all udders are warranted sound

and the vendor must declare any faults, defects or unsoundness at the time of sale.

15.3.21 If a member of the Society shall commit or knowingly suffer any breach of these Rules he or she shall be deemed guilty of conduct derogatory to the character and prejudicial to the interests of the Society’s Memorandum & Articles of Association and Rules as the case may be.

15.3.22 Notwithstanding anything in these Rules contained, the decision of the Council shall be in all matters final and binding on all parties and the Council may order the payment of such costs and expenses as it thinks fit.

A member of the Society being a party to a dispute shall have the right to require the Council of the Society to settle the same.

15.3.23 Calves sold suckling their dams are given to the purchaser free and no guarantees apply unless specifically stated by the Vendor at the time of sale. Calves sold suckling their dams at any sale under Society rules will be subject to an identity inspection only.

15.3.24 Where a cow or heifer calves at a later date than the date stated in the catalogue, the onus of proving identity of the service bull shall be upon the Vendor.

15.3.25 Any female [cow or heifer] that has been flushed for embryo transplant will be EXCLUDED from the terms of this guarantee but individual Vendors of such animals shall have the opinion of giving their personal guarantee, to be announced at the time of sale. All claims under National Beef Association Terms & Conditions of Sale must be submitted within the correct time limits in writing to the Auctioneers who will forthwith inform the Vendor and the Secretary of the Society of the receipt of a claim.

15.3.26 DNA TYPING OF STATED SIRES WHEN SELLING FEMALES IN CALF As from 1st October 2008 it will be the Vendor’s responsibility to have a

Sire DNA typed if the vendor is selling Females in-calf to a stated sire. If the Sire is no longer available and has not been DNA typed it is the Vendor’s responsibility to declare this in the Sales catalogue. (This rule also applies to Private Sales).

To clarify: if a Sire is not DNA typed the Society cannot register his progeny. To obtain a sire profile without the sire, 5 progeny and their dams have to be DNA typed, this is 10 DNA profiles at a cost of £23.10 + VAT each. The purchaser must be made aware by the vendor of the potential registration problems and costs.

15.4 SPECIAL REGULATIONS Preliminary: It may be necessary for a sale to be cancelled at any time and the

Society retains power for this purpose. The Society also reserves the right to limit the number of entries from any one Vendor should such limitation, in its opinion, be necessary or desirable.

15.4.1 All BSCS registered males and females to be offered for sale as single lots [except calves sold at dam’s side].

15.4.2 All cattle entered at collective Official Society sales must be trained to lead by halter and be lead by halter during inspection and sale. Any animals not halter trained must be entered as a DRAFT and not into the collective sale. Animals are not eligible for showing unless halter trained.

15.16 No liability whatsoever is undertaken by the Society or the Auctioneers for any error or mis-statement on the Entry Form, and all information given on the Entry Form is the sole responsibility of the Exhibitor.

15.17 Every Vendor, or an authorised representative, is responsible for presenting his or her own animals to the sale ring at the due time, in accordance with the order of sale. Any animal not presented for sale in the correct order will be sold at the end of the sale.

15.18 In the event of any alteration to the catalogue particulars being necessary, the Vendors must furnish full details of such alteration to the Auctioneers before the commencement of the sale, which shall then be announced from the rostrum at the time of sale. Such statements made from the rostrum shall take precedence over the catalogue information.

NOTE: Special Conditions apply to the sale of animals for export.15.26 There is no upper or lower age limit for cattle handling, although auctioneers

and/sales’ centres may impose their own ruling. However, it is important to ensure that all handlers are in good health and properly trained to lead any animal, either on parade, show or in the sale ring.
