Johne’s Beef Assurance Score (J-BAS)

J-BAS is a risk profiling tool developed for use in the new approach to Johne’s disease (JD) in beef cattle. The scoring system is from 0 ( being ‘Unmanaged risk’) to 8 (‘High Assurance’). Vendors of the Show and Sale are required to have a minimum of a J-BAS 6 in order to exhibit at the event. For more information please go to www.animalhealthaustralia.com.au

It is the responsibility of all potential purchasers to conduct their own due diligence regarding the Johnes disease status of the lots that they are interested in purchasing.

Herefords Australia Ltd and the Herefords Australia National Show and Sale (Wodonga) Management Committee take no responsibility for the J-BAS status of any of the listed herds or cattle.

Supplementary Sheets

Supplementary sheets will be available on sale day with information regarding the following:

• Semen retained – the amount of semen retained in certain bulls

• Raw measurements – taken on Tuesday 12th May 2026

Please Note

Herefords Australia and the Vendors’ Committee accept no liability for accidents that occur on Show and Sale days. All persons attending this Show and Sale do so at their own risk.

Whilst all due care and attention has been paid to accuracy in the compilation of this catalogue, neither the Vendors nor the Selling Agents or representative(s) thereof assume any responsibility whatsoever for the correctness, use or interpretation of the information on animals included in this sale catalogue.

Information contained in this catalogue including but not limited to pedigree, DNA information, Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) and Index values, is based on data supplied by members and/or third parties.

Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information, the ABRI, the Society or Association, their officers and employees assume no responsibility for its content, use or interpretation.

Estimated Breeding Values can only be directly compared to other EBVs calculated in the same analysis.

Raw Measurements For Sale Bulls for Herefords Australia National Show & Sale (Wodonga)

Raw measurements made on animals from different ages and nutritional backgrounds should be treated with caution. These measurements include weight, scrotal size and ultrasound carcase measurements. Measurements made on individual bulls of different ages with different nutritional backgrounds from conception to final measurement cannot be directly compared. An EBV for an animal predicts the capacity of its progeny. A raw scan is how that animal looks on the day, and this raw data is highly influenced by nutrition and age.

It is best to compare bulls using their Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs), as these measurements have been adjusted for age so that an animal is only ever directly compared with other animals of similar age and raised in the same environment. EBVs also take into account the genetic background of the animal (sires and dams).

A good example of this is an ultrasound measurement of Intra Muscular Fat (IMF). Ultrasound scanning technology has the ability to estimate the percentage of IMF in a live animal. This actual measurement does not account for the variations in nutritional background or age. Therefore an EBV for IMF% is a more accurate estimate of the genetic potential of an animal for marbling than a raw measurement on an individual animal.

Explanatory Notes for Horned Status of Animals

Please note that as per the Regulations of Herefords Australia Ltd.

“Description of Animals”

Polled, Horned or Scurred animals shall be eligible for registration; and the letter P, H or S shall be shown in the Company’s records and on the Registration Certificate, as the recorded phenotype as provided by the breeder at the time of registration.

Any animal that has been DNA tested for Poll/Horn status and is found to be Homozygous polled will automatically receive PP as a horn status:

(PP) – A Homozygous Polled (PP) animal will predominantly produce Polled progeny. However, this test is based on markers closely associated with the gene that controls horn status rather than directly for the gene itself. Research has shown that test results align with the animal’s phenotype in more than 97.5% of cases but there is a small chance that a “PP” sire will produce horned progeny.

(P) – Polled

(H) – Horned

(S) – Scurred

Any lots that have been tested for their Poll Gene Marker have their results printed in the catalogue. The results will show whether the bull is Homozygous (PP) or Heterozygous (PH) Polled.

A Heterozygous Polled (PH) animal carries a Polled and Horned gene and can produce Polled, Horned (or Scurred) calves.

SEMEN TESTS

All bulls in this catalogue have undergone a semen quality test within 70 days prior to date of sale. Minimum requirement was 30% motile semen on day of test.

Semen test results are available for inspection upon request to the Duty Agent. There are a number of factors which may have affected semen quality since the date of these tests.

Neither Herefords Australia Limited nor the Show & Sale Committee warrant that the results of semen tests performed as a condition of entry to this sale are confirmation of semen quality on day of sale.

BREEDPLAN Explanatory Notes

Using BREEDPLAN Information to Purchase Superior Cattle

BREEDPLAN allows the objective measurement of beef cattle to be transformed into Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). EBVs should be used in conjunction with other selection tools like bull breeding soundness exams and structural assessments. The methodology behind BREEPDLAN has been around since the 1950s and has been continuously developed since then. BREEDPLAN itself has been around for almost 40 years and is used by 100+ breed associations around the world. It is a proven technology with extensive scientific research and knowledge behind it.

How to Use EBVs to Select Animals

EBVs are expressed in the units of measurement for each particular trait. They are shown as positive or negative differences between an individual animal’s genetics and the genetic base to which the animal is compared. For example, a bull with a 600 Day Weight EBV of +85 kg is 9 kg above a breed average of +76 kg. This means that his progeny would be expected, on average, to be 4.5 kg (9 kg ÷ 2 as half the genetics come from the cow) heavier at 600 days of age than the progeny of a breed average bull.

The breed average can also be found in the percentile table (Top 50% line). The percentile table can be used to evaluate where each animal ranks within the breed for each EBV trait (for example, two animals that are above breed average for a particular trait could be in the Top 5% and the Top 30% of the breed respectively). Percentile bands are available here: https://abri.une.edu.au/online/cgi-bin/i4.dll?1=2A2C3E293E &2=2323&3=56&5=2B3C2B3C3A

Another useful tool is the EBV Percentile Graph. It is available online by bringing up an individual animal’s page on the Hereford database. The EBV Percentile Graph shows which percentile band each animal is in for each trait. For most EBVs, it is desirable to have bars tending to the righthand side of the graph, though there are exceptions (e.g. Mature Cow Weight) where moderate or the left-hand side of the graph may be preferable. The bars are also colour coded with calving traits being yellow, growth traits green, fertility traits red, carcase traits light blue, other traits dark blue and selection indexes pink.

When using EBVs to assist in selection decisions, it is important to place emphasis on those traits that are important to the particular markets and environment the bull is to be used in. Selection Indexes (described on the following pages) take the hard work out by balancing the combination of EBVs available.

EBVs Published By BREEDPLAN

Herefords Australia publishes BREEDPLAN EBVs for 19 traits, including birth, growth, fertility and carcase traits. The EBVs are described in more detail below.

Calving Ease Direct: The Calving Ease Direct EBV (%) describes genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s calves to be born unassisted from 2 year old heifers. More positive EBVs are more favourable and indicate that 2 year old heifers will have less difficulty birthing the progeny of the bull.

Calving Ease Daughters: The Calving Ease Daughters EBV (%) describes genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s 2 year old daughters to calve without assistance. More positive EBVs are more favourable and indicate easier calving of a sire’s daughters at 2 years of age.

Gestation Length: The Gestation Length EBV (days) describes the genetic differences between animals in gestation length. Lower (negative) EBVs indicate shorter gestation length which is associated with lower birth weights and easier calving.

Birth Weight: The Birth Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between animals in calf birth weight. Lower EBVs indicate lighter calves at birth and lower likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

200 Day Weight: The 200 Day Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between animals in live weight at 200 days of age, with more positive EBVs indicating higher growth. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for early growth to weaning, and thus is an important trait for those who turn off animals as vealers or weaners.

400 Day Weight: The 400 Day Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between animals in live weight at 400 days of age, with more positive EBVs indicating higher growth. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for yearling weight, and thus is an important trait for those who turn off animals as yearlings.

600 Day Weight: The 600 Day Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between animals in live weight at 600 days of age, with more positive EBVs indicating higher growth. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age, and thus is important for those who target the production of animals suited for heavy weight grass or grain fed markets.

Mature Cow Weight: The Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between cows in live weight at 5 years of age. More positive EBVs indicate heavier mature weights, which are associated with higher feed maintenance requirements.

BREEDPLAN Explanatory Notes

Milk: The Milk EBV (kg) describes genetic differences in the maternal contribution of a dam to the 200 day weight of her calf. In the case of sires, the Milk EBV indicates the maternal contribution that his daughters will make to the 200 day weight of their progeny.

Scrotal Size: The Scrotal Size EBV (cm) describes genetic differences between animals in scrotal circumference at 400 days of age. More positive Scrotal Size EBVs are associated with increased semen quantity and quality in males, and earlier age at puberty in both males and females.

Days to Calving: The Days to Calving EBV (days) describes genetic differences between animals in the time from the start of the joining period (i.e. when the female is introduced to a bull) until subsequent calving. For sires, this EBV describes the fertility of his daughters. More negative EBVs indicate a shorter interval from bull-in date to calving and therefore higher fertility.

Carcase Weight: The Carcase Weight EBV (kg) describes genetic differences in hot standard carcase weight at 650 days of age, with more positive EBVs indicating higher carcase weight.

Eye Muscle Area: The Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) describes genetic differences in eye muscle area at the 12/13th rib site of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicating better muscling.

Rib Fat: The Rib Fat EBV (mm) describes genetic differences in fat depth at the 12/13th rib site of a 300 kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

Rump Fat: The Rump Fat EBV (mm) describes genetic differences in fat depth at the P8 site of a 300 kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

Retail Beef Yield: The Retail Beef Yield EBV (%) describes genetic differences between animals for retail yield percentage in a 300 kg dressed carcase. Sires with larger EBVs are expected to produce progeny with higher yielding carcases.

Intramuscular Fat: The Intramuscular Fat EBV (%) describes genetic difference in the percentage of intramuscular fat at the 12/13th rib site of a 300 kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate higher marbling.

Docility: The Docility EBV (%) describes genetic differences between animals in temperament. More positive EBVs indicate a higher proportion of progeny with favourable temperaments.

Net Feed Intake (Feedlot Finishing): The Net Feed Intake (Feedlot Finishing) EBV (kg) describes genetic differences between animals in feed intake at a standard weight and rate of weight gain when animals are in a feedlot finishing phase. More negative EBVs indicate progeny that eat less feed per day (when the progeny are of similar weight, are growing at a similar rate and are in a feedlot finishing phase).

EBV Accuracy

Percentage accuracies are presented with every EBV and give an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the percentage accuracy, the lower the likelihood of change in the animal’s EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives. In general, animals should be compared on EBVs regardless of accuracy. However, where two animals have similar EBVs, the animal with higher accuracy could be the safer choice, assuming all other factors (e.g. structure) are equal.

Remember, all information that is known about an animal and its relatives is considered in the calculation of its EBVs. Subsequently, the EBV will be the best estimate available of an animal’s genetic merit, regardless of accuracy.

Hereford Selection Indexes

Selection indexes assist beef producers to make selection decisions that take into account the relevant growth, carcase, fertility and efficiency attributes of each animal to identify candidates whose progeny will be the most profitable for a particular commercial enterprise.

Selection indexes provide an overall indication of an animal’s genetic value for profit in a specific production system/target market and are calculated based on weightings placed on individual traits that are deemed to be important for that production system.

The weightings are calculated using BreedObject (https:// breedobject.com) software that analyses all sources of costs and income for the production system represented by each selection index. As such, selection indexes account for both sides of the profit equation and reflect the short and long term profit possible through selection of superior genetics. For example, short term profit can be generated by a bull through the sale of his progeny, and the longer term profit generated by his daughters in a self-replacing cow herd.

Best Practice Guide to Animal Selection Using Australian Hereford Selection Indexes

Incorporating selection index information into breeding decisions takes the hard work out of trying to decide how much emphasis you need to put on individual EBVs when determining which animals you want to retain in your herd or purchase. The recommended strategy for selecting animals is to complete the following steps:

1. Identify the selection index of most relevance to your or your client’s breeding objectives. This decision should be aided by the index descriptions at the end of this document.

2. Rank animals on the chosen selection index. This can be done via the web search facility available for the breed.

3. Consider the individual BREEDPLAN EBVs of importance. All breed level selection indexes are designed for the average of the production system specified in their description. This means that individual farm environments and management choices may require that their own thresholds are applied. For example, if looking

for a bull to use over heifers, particular attention should be paid to Calving Ease and Birth Weight EBVs.

4. Consider other traits of importance. Structure, fertility (e.g. BULLCHECKTM), temperament, genetic conditions and pedigree are all important additional considerations. Further information is available in the A BREEDPLAN Guide to Animal Selection (https://breedplan.une.edu.au/media/ w5pgmshc/a-breedplan-guide-to-animal-selection.pdf) tip sheet that can be found in the Help Centre (https://breedplan. une.edu.au/help-centre/) on the BREEDPLAN website.

Available Australian Hereford Selection Indexes

Herefords Australia Ltd. currently reports two different selection indexes. These are the:

• Sustainability Production Index

• MSA Production Index

These indexes take a balanced approach and apply selection pressure to all trait categories that impact on productivity, quality of product and cost of production. Importantly both indexes have a focus on sustainable beef production which is achieved through improving the efficiency of the production system, as well as improving eating quality. Significant premiums are applied for increasing marble score up to a marble score of 3. Pressure is also applied to early life growth to maintain low ossification scores and good MSA compliance.

In addition, each selection index targets the following specifications.

Sustainability Production Index

• Commercial self-replacing Hereford herd targeting the domestic market and with a strong focus on sustainability.

• Selected heifers are retained so maternal traits are important.

• Steers finished on grass.

• Steers target 300 kg carcases with 10 mm P8 fat depth at 20 months of age.

MSA Production Index

• Commercial self-replacing Hereford herd targeting the domestic market.

• Selected heifers are retained so maternal traits are important.

• Steers grain finished in feedlot and target higher MSA grades.

• Steers target 340 kg carcases with 12 mm P8 fat depth at 20 months of age.

Further details are available in the Australian Hereford Selection Indexes: Technical Specifications (https:// breedplan.une.edu.au/media/r5whihup/australian-herefordselection-indexes-technical-specifications.pdf) tip sheet that can be found in the Help Centre (https://breedplan.une.edu. au/help-centre/) on the BREEDPLAN website.

Hereford BREEDPLAN Data

1. Minimum Requirements

Bulls appearing in this catalogue are required to have current reportable Hereford BREEDPLAN EBVs for 200, 400 and 600 Day Weights, Fat Depth (Rib and Rump), Eye Muscle Area and Intramuscular Fat.

2. Traits Observed

The BREEDPLAN data for each lot in this catalogue carries a ‘Traits Observed’ indicator. This identifies those traits for which the animal has been directly measured and the animal’s measurement included in the BREEDPLAN analysis. Where an animal has not been observed for a trait, the EBVs have been calculated from measurements on other related trait, the performance of the animal’s relatives and/or genomic information of the animal’s relatives.
