Power packed is the only way to describe this girls pedigree. Purple banners have filled her past and we expect nothing less out of her offspring. Dream is sired by a flushmate to the Brick and is out of a flushmate to Sunset Vicky 913W who has over 35 Grand Champion wins in the TJLA and is a half sister to MRG Rusty the reigning Canadian National Champion Bull. She was exposed from 11/22/12- the present to MRG Super Bad a son of ALTA Selina the Canadian reserve national champion and Supersonic a national champion himself. Dream has the true brood cow look, deep bodied, big boned, and sound, yet she has plenty of eye appeal and femininity. We hate to let this one go but Rusty always said you got to sell a good one.

She was raised on grass in Australia and exported to the US in 2009 to offer American Breeders some of the best Lowline genetics available at Foundation Stud, Ardrossan Lowline, at the time. She is the dam of Ardrossan Jamberoo, who has proven himself in the US producing both Champion stud cattle and viable Grass Finished Commercial stock. Jamberoo also carries the Heparin Protein, which enhances fertility, especially with semen used in AI, as well as increases fertility in heifers. Ardrossan Lincoln has proved himself over many Stud and Commercial cows at Ardrossan. He improves length, Rib Eye Area and balance to his progeny and has a wonderful temperament. Excellent feet and legs, body carriage, fertility and early maturity are all traits he exhibits. Muscle where it pays!

The Lowdown on Lowlines A western Nebraska ranch boosted annual profit by 17% by using half-blood Lowline cows to produce more pounds of beef/acre. Loretta Sorensen - Sep. 1, 2009, Beef Magazine It was their search for the best way to merchandise the grass covering the rolling hills of their Cody, NE, ranch that led Jerry Adamson and his son Todd to Australia several years ago. That’s where they discovered what the Adamsons say are the purest Angus bloodlines in the world — Lowlines. “We needed 1,150-lb. cows that consumed less grass than a 1,400-lb. but produced nearly as heavy a calf,” Jerry says. “We found what was probably the largest full-blood Lowline bull in Australia and brought home 750 units of semen. Using a half-blood Lowline cow and a modern-day crossbred bull, we’re weaning calves nearly the same size as the larger cows produced. We’ve tried to be conservative in our estimates of increased profits with these genetics, but we have seen producers who have achieved a 20% increase in profits with this plan.” Todd headed up the research that outlines the Adamsons’ production inputs and profits scenario. He says they based their projections on the fact that the average cow consumes 2.2% of her body weight in dry matter every day. “Most university figures agree with that number,” Todd says. “We know producers raising all breeds of cattle have been retaining their biggest heifers for replacement females over the last 40-50 years. That means cows and bulls have gotten bigger and bigger, but efficiency has been left behind. Figures that told us how many pounds of beef for every acre of grass come from bigger cows revealed that smaller cows actually produce more beef per acre, increasing profits at a minimum of 16.7%.” To implement their plan to reduce their herd’s cow size, the Adamsons used Lowline bulls on their first-calf heifers. Doing so, they eased the calving process for the heifers and retained heifer calves from the cross to begin developing a herd of 1,150-lb. cows. “The beef industry has been using weaning weight as a measuring stick for efficiency,” Jerry says. “A better efficiency measure is the return on grass per acre. In our scenario, we based figures on calves that were 30 lbs. lighter than the calves out of 1,400-lb. cows. “But calves out of our half-blood Lowline cows are nearly as heavy as those from the larger cows. We didn’t develop this program with the idea of producing grass-fed beef, but it certainly works for a producer who wants to get involved in that kind of program,” he adds. The Adamsons were confident they’d be satisfied with Lowline genetics because they are Angus cattle. While they downsized their cows, the Adamsons have retained desirable Angus traits that include good milking, easy fleshing and docile nature. “Lowlines aren’t a new breed,” Jerry says. “In the late 1930s, the Australian government brought a herd of registered, line-bred Angus cattle from Canada to the Trangie Agricultural Research Center. The herd was divided in half and the only selection criterion in both herds for the next 58 years was frame size.” One of the herds was bred to determine how large a frame could be achieved through the breeding program. The other herd was bred to attain the smallest frame size. The former were called Highlines, and the latter referred to as Lowlines. “In 1998, the research project was ended and the government planned to terminate the cattle,” Adamson says. “When the public discovered the plan, there was an outcry for the Lowlines because the public perceived them as very appealing. As a result, the Australian government put the Lowlines up for sale, and some of the cattle were imported to America.” At their Rocking J Ranch, the Adamsons have retained nearly 300 half-blood Lowline cows
The Lowdown on Lowlines and 20 full-blood Lowline cows in their herd. Within their three calving units, the Adamsons produce approximately 2,450 calves/year. Of those, 300 have Lowline influence and the remaining 2,150 have Chiangus, Maine Anjou and Simmental influence. In the last five years, Rocking J Ranch and its partner George Jenkins of North Platte, NE, have shown their Lowline cattle nationwide, winning championships at every major Lowline show. Their full-blood Lowline bull, nicknamed The Brick, has been crowned Grand Champion or Reserved Grand Champion at every major Lowline show in the U.S. “The Lowline show, with 254 head in competition, was the second-largest breed show at Denver in 2008,” Jerry says. “Lowlines are beginning to show up at cattle shows across the country and a lot of Midwest fairs. At the 2007 Denver Fed Beef Contest, held in conjunction with the National Western Stock Show, our pen of half-blood Lowline steers raised at the Rocking J Ranch placed second to the Grand Champion Entry.” Meat produced from Lowline-influenced cattle falls into the fine-textured category and is very tender, Adamson says. He adds that the combination of increased profitability of Lowline genetics and high quality of Lowline beef gives producers two highly desirable traits for current beef markets. “The meat is extremely palatable,” Adamson says. “Everyone comments on its tenderness.” The Adamsons offer percentage and full-blood Lowline bulls, retaining the majority of their heifers. They expect demand to grow as producers realize the benefits of smaller-framed cows. Jerry notes that producers interested in downsizing cows need to factor in their bull’s maternal bloodlines in order to be successful. “Perception is a big driver in decisions about genetics,” Jerry says, “but the facts about the total pounds of beef produced from an acre of grass are the best measure of profitability.”

Lowdown en Lowlines Un rancho oeste de Nebraska impulsado beneficio anual en un 17% mediante el uso de sangre de media Lowline vacas para producir m·s kilos de carne / ha. Loretta Sorensen 01 de septiembre 2009, la revista Beef Fue la b˙squeda de la mejor forma de la mercancÌa de la hierba que cubre las colinas de su Cody, NE, hacienda que llevÛ Jerry Adamson y su hijo Todd a Australia hace varios aÒos. AhÌ es donde descubrieron lo que los Adamson que son las m·s puras lÌneas de sangre Angus en el mundo - Lowlines. “Necesit·bamos 1.150 libras. vacas que consumÌan menos de una libra de hierba de 1.400. sino que se produce casi como un ternero pesado “, dice Jerry. “Hemos encontrado lo que probablemente fue la m·s grande de pura sangre toro Lowline en Australia y trajo a casa 750 unidades de semen. Uso de una vaca Lowline media-sangre y un toro mestizo de hoy en dÌa, estamos destete terneros casi el mismo tamaÒo que las vacas m·s grandes producido. Hemos tratado de ser conservadores en nuestras estimaciones de aumento de los beneficios con estas genÈticas, pero hemos visto productores que han logrado un aumento del 20% en sus ganancias con este plan “. Todd encabezÛ la investigaciÛn que describe los insumos de producciÛn de los Adamson y el escenario de ganancias. Dice que basa sus proyecciones en el hecho de que la vaca promedio consume 2,2% de su peso corporal en materia seca cada dÌa. “La mayorÌa de las figuras universitarias de acuerdo con esa cifra”, dice Todd. “Sabemos que los productores que crÌan todas las razas de ganado ha sido retener sus mayores novillas de reemplazo para las mujeres en los ˙ltimos 40-50 aÒos. Eso significa que las vacas y los toros se han vuelto m·s y m·s grande, pero la eficiencia se ha quedado atr·s. Las figuras que nos han contado cu·ntas libras de carne de res por cada acre de cÈsped vienen de grandes vacas revelÛ que las pequeÒas vacas en realidad producir m·s carne por hect·rea, lo que aumenta las ganancias a un mÌnimo del 16,7%. “ Para llevar a cabo su plan para reducir el tamaÒo de su rebaÒo de vaca, los Adamson utilizado toros Lowline en sus novillas de primer parto. Si lo hace, se facilitÛ el proceso de parto para las novillas y terneras conservado de la cruz para comenzar a desarrollar un rebaÒo de 1.150 libras. vacas. “La industria de la carne de vacuno ha estado usando el peso al destete como una vara de medir para la eficiencia”, dice Jerry. “Una medida de eficiencia es el mejor retorno de la hierba por acre. En nuestro escenario, se basa en cifras de terneros que eran 30 libras. m·s ligero que los terneros de 1.400 libras. vacas. “Pero novillos de nuestras vacas Lowline sangre de media son casi tan pesado como los de las vacas m·s grandes. No desarrollamos este programa con la idea de producir ganado alimentado con pastos, pero sin duda trabaja para un productor que quiere involucrarse en ese tipo de programa “, aÒade. Los Adamsons estaban seguros de que estarÌa satisfecho con Lowline genÈtica porque son vacas Angus. Aunque reducido sus vacas, los Adamson han conservado rasgos deseables Angus que incluyen un buen ordeÒo, descarnado f·cil y dÛcil naturaleza. “Lowlines no son una raza nueva”, dice Jerry. “A fines de 1930, el gobierno australiano trajo un rebaÒo de inscritos, la lÌnea de raza Angus desde Canad· hasta el Centro de InvestigaciÛn AgrÌcola Trangie. El rebaÒo se dividiÛ por la mitad y el ˙nico criterio de selecciÛn en ambos rebaÒos para los prÛximos 58 aÒos era tamaÒo del marco. “ Uno de los rebaÒos fue criado para determinar el tamaÒo de un marco se puede lograr a travÈs del programa de crÌa. La manada otro fue criado para lograr el menor tamaÒo de
Lowdown en Lowlines marco. El primero se llama Highlines, y el segundo referido como Lowlines. “En 1998, el proyecto de investigaciÛn habÌa terminado y que el gobierno planeaba terminar el ganado”, dice Adamson. “Cuando el p˙blico descubriÛ el plan, hubo una protesta por los Lowlines porque el p˙blico las percibe como muy atractivo. Como resultado, el gobierno australiano puso las Lowlines a la venta, y algunos de los animales fueron importados a Estados Unidos “. En su J Ranch Rocking, los Adamson han conservado casi 300 sanguÌneas medio Lowline vacas y 20 vacas de pura sangre Lowline en su rebaÒo. Dentro de sus tres unidades de parto, los Adamson producir aproximadamente 2.450 terneros / aÒo. De ellos, 300 tienen influencia Lowline y los restantes 2.150 tienen Chiangus, Anjou y Maine influencia Simmental. En los ˙ltimos cinco aÒos, Rocking J Ranch y su socio George Jenkins de North Platte, NE, han mostrado su ganado Lowline en todo el paÌs, ganando campeonatos en cada show Lowline importante. Su pura sangre toro Lowline, apodado The Brick, ha sido coronado como Gran CampeÛn Reservado Gran CampeÛn o en cada show Lowline importante en los EE.UU. “El espect·culo Lowline, con 254 cabeza de la competencia, fue el espect·culo segunda raza m·s grande en Denver en 2008”, dice Jerry. “Lowlines est·n empezando a aparecer en las ferias de ganado en todo el paÌs y una gran cantidad de ferias del Medio Oeste. En el Concurso 2007 Denver Beef Fed, que se celebrÛ conjuntamente con el SalÛn Nacional de Valores occidental, nuestra pluma de Lowline mestizo dirige planteado en el Rancho Rocking J en segundo lugar a la entrada de Gran CampeÛn “. La carne procedente de bovinos de influencia Lowline cae en la categorÌa de textura fina y es muy tierno, dice Adamson. Y aÒade que la combinaciÛn de una mayor rentabilidad de lÌnea baja y la alta calidad genÈtica de la carne Lowline da a los productores dos caracterÌsticas muy deseables para los mercados de carne de res actuales. “La carne es muy sabrosa”, dice Adamson. “Todos los comentarios sobre su ternura”. Los Adamsons ofrecer porcentaje y lleno de sangre toros Lowline, conservando la mayorÌa de sus novillas. Ellos esperan que la demanda creciendo a medida que los productores de obtener los beneficios de menor enmarcadas vacas. Jerry toma nota de que los productores interesados en vacas reducciÛn de personal deben tener en cuenta linajes maternos su toro con el fin de tener Èxito. “La percepciÛn es un factor importante en las decisiones acerca de la genÈtica”, Jerry comenta, “pero los hechos sobre el total de libras de carne producidas a partir de una hect·rea de pasto son la mejor medida de la rentabilidad.” Loretta Sorensen es un escritor independiente que vive en Yankton, SD.

A Diamond in the Rough February 2012 Recently, Kris Ringwall, North Dakota State University, Dickinson Extension Research Center, spoke at the American Lowline Annual Meeting during the National Western Stock Show. The Research Center has used Lowline cattle as a part of their crossbreeding system in their commercial cow herd. Here’s some of the things Kris had to say; “There are a lot of great things going on in the beef business right now. I hope to stimulate some thought from everyone with the discussion and the story I have to tell. What is right in the beef business? That is a really big question. There are lots of things that are right in the beef business,” states Kris. There are a lot of different environments and a lot of different production systems in today’s beef business. “There are a couple of questions that get asked periodically in the beef business: How big? How small? How much muscle? We ask these because we have to raise them and they have to give us something to eat.” Kris is quick to point out, “I come at this from the commercial side of the business. Where do things fit from the commercial side of the business as it relates to beef production?” Kris gives more input on the commercial approach to the cattle business, “I look at things from a Beef Cattle Systems Evaluation. What kind of system works? Where do certain types of cattle fit within a system. In order to answer these questions, I like to establish usage – is there a use for the cattle, do the cattle have something to offer? Once we have established that there is a use for the cattle, I like to establish a use – where do they fit?” The carcass data from our commercial herd really points out that there is a use for the Lowline cattle. The research center used Lowline cattle from 2004-2007. “You’ve all been there, you have the Lowline cattle standing next to the larger, conventional cattle and someone asks – what are those?” And people begin to question if they are big enough. We used Lowline bulls on conventional commercial cattle to produce the F1, first cross cattle and followed them through the feedlot. The F1 progeny were frame 4-5 and had finished weights from 1100-1300 pounds. If someone says ‘they will never grow up’ they are wrong, don’t believe them. With final weights of 1100-1300 pounds they can definitely fit in the industry.” The cattle graded 69-100% Choice so they met the quality grade requirements of the industry very well in addition to the market weight.

“So you can’t just walk away from cattle with this kind of data and say they don’t fit, that they don’t have a place in the industry. They will fit and they offer some options in the industry. If you look at the industry – we are in the cow business,” Kris continues, “It is a forage-based business, a grass-based business. The cost of doing business probably triples when cattle go into the feedlot with the cost of grain. So, we really have to look at the cows producing on grass.” “We, the research center, took a couple of years off from using Lowline. We went back to using calving ease bulls from some other breeds. We had some people looking at us funny – asking what are you doing? People walked by your cattle and asked what is this? Then we had something happen that really was one of the things that turned our heads. We were using these calving ease bulls and ended up pulling lots of calves. A lot of them were hard pulls. So, after not using Lowline for 2 years, we got back in. We looked at those F1 Lowline females and they had grown up and were pretty productive cows. We had been using Red Angus on those F1 Lowline females. One of the things we were constantly watching was ribeye area. We had tried to moderate frame on the cows one time before and absolutely lost muscle. That is the easi-
41
A Diamond in the Rough est thing to do in the cattle business is to downsize frame and lose muscle. And we did not want to do that,” Kris concludes. Table 2. Calving Ease of Lowline Bulls on Conventional Heifers Year

“So where do the Lowline influence females fit? We had established usage on the males and determined they had a place in the business. What about the females? We bred the F1 females to either Red Angus or Angus calving ease bulls and we were quite pleased with the resulting calves. What really impressed us was the average cow weight of the F1 relative to the weight of the calf they produced.”
“The other thing that was impressive was the acres per pair that were required to run the F1 compared to the conventional pairs. You really have to look at the acres required to run a cow when you look at the differences in frame size.” Table 4. Input and Production Per Pair Conventional Herd

“We have about 80 head of F1 Lowline females. We know the Lowline influence will reduce cow size. It will reduce calving issues. We produce more ribeye area/hundred weight. We produce more gain per acre. And the Lowline influence creates management options that we can implement. We have an opportunity to breed Lowline bulls to conventional heifers. The male progeny can be marketed through traditional channels. The F1 females from this cross – ½ Lowline and ½ conventional heifers become your replacement females in a terminal Lowline herd where all offspring from these F1’s are marketed. This beef cattle system results in shaving 300 pounds off your cow size while maintaining muscle and producing mainstream industry carcasses.” Kris wraps up his discussion on the Lowline influence at the Dickinson Research Center, “The ½ blood Lowline is really a diamond in the rough, she is really somewhat undiscovered. Our story says the F1 Lowline female makes a terrific cow herd – they really do. Your challenge is to breed more heifers Lowline to make the F1’s and let people try those F1’s. You need to tell your story – they work, they really do.”

A Diamond in the Rough February 2012 Recientemente, Kris Ringwall, North Dakota State University, Investigación y Extensión de Dickinson Center, habló en la reunión americana Lowline anual durante el Stock Show Nacional de Occidente. El centro de investigación ha utilizado ganado Lowline como parte de su sistema de cruzamiento en su manada comercial. He aquí algunas de las cosas Kris tenía que decir; “Hay un montón de grandes cosas que suceden en el comercio de ganado en estos momentos. Espero estimular una reflexión de todo el mundo con la discusión y la historia que tengo que contar. Lo que es correcto en el negocio de carne de res? Esa es una pregunta muy grande. Hay un montón de cosas que son correctas en el negocio de la carne “, dice Kris. Hay un montón de diferentes ambientes y una gran cantidad de diferentes sistemas de producción de carne en los negocios de hoy. “Hay un par de preguntas que me preguntan periódicamente en el negocio de la carne: ¿Qué tan grande? ¿Qué tan pequeño? ¿Cuánto músculo? Pedimos esto porque tenemos que levantar y nos tienen que dar algo de comer. “Kris se apresura a señalar:” Yo vengo a esto desde el lado comercial del negocio. ¿Dónde encajan las cosas desde el lado comercial de la empresa en lo que respecta a la producción de carne? “ Kris da más entrada en el enfoque comercial para el negocio del ganado, “miro las cosas desde una Beef Cattle Evaluación de Sistemas. ¿Qué tipo de sistema funciona? ¿Dónde ciertos tipos de ganado caber dentro de un sistema. Para responder a estas preguntas, me gustaría establecer utilización - ¿hay un uso para el ganado, el ganado se tiene algo que ofrecer? Una vez que hemos establecido que hay un uso para el ganado, me gustaría establecer una utilización - ¿dónde encajan “ Los datos de las canales de nuestro rebaño comercial realmente señala que hay un uso para el ganado Lowline. El centro de investigación utilizado ganado Lowline 2004-2007. “Todos ustedes han estado allí, usted tiene el ganado Lowline de pie al lado de los más grandes, vacas convencionales y pide a alguien - ¿qué es eso?” Y la gente comienza a preguntarse si son lo suficientemente grandes. Utilizamos toros Lowline convencionales ganado en comerciales para producir el ganado F1, primer cruce y los siguió a través de los corrales de engorde. La progenie F1 se estructura 4-5 y terminó de pesos 1100 hasta 1300 libras. Si alguien dice ‘nunca va a crecer “ellos están equivocados, no les creo. Con los pesos finales de 1100-1300 libras que sin duda puede caber en la industria. “El ganado 69-100% calificado elección por lo que cumplió con los requisitos de calificación de calidad de la industria muy bien, además del peso de mercado.

“Así que no puedes simplemente a pie de ganado con este tipo de datos y dicen que no le quedan bien, que no tienen un lugar en la industria. Cabrán y ofrecen algunas opciones en la industria. Si nos fijamos en la industria - que estamos en el negocio de la vaca, “Kris continúa:” Es un negocio basado en forraje, una empresa con sede en hierba. El costo de hacer negocios probablemente triplica cuando el ganado entra en el corral de engorde con el costo de los granos. Así que realmente hay que ver las vacas que produjeron en la hierba “. “Nosotros, el centro de investigación, tomó un par de años fuera de uso Lowline. Volvimos a la utilización de los toros facilidad de parto de algunas otras razas. Tuvimos algunas personas nos miran divertidos preguntando ¿qué estás haciendo? La gente caminaba por tu ganado y me preguntó qué es esto? Luego tuvimos que algo suceda que realmente era una de las cosas que se volvieron la cabeza. Estábamos usando estos toros facilidad de parto y terminó tirando un montón de terneros. Muchos de ellos eran duros tirones. Así, después de no usar Lowline por 2 años, volvimos pulg Nos fijamos en las hembras F1 Lowline y habían crecido y eran vacas muy productivas. Habíamos estado usando Red Angus en aquellas

Se ha intentado moderar marco de las vacas una vez antes y absolutamente perdido músculo. Esa es la cosa más fácil de hacer en el negocio ganadero es reducir el tamaño de marco y perder músculo. Y no quería hacer eso “, concluye Kris. Tabla 2. Fac de Parto de Toros Lowline en Novillas Convencionales Year

“Entonces, ¿dónde las hembras influencia Lowline forma? Habíamos establecido el uso en los machos y se determinó que tenía un lugar en el negocio. ¿Y las mujeres? Hemos criado a las hembras F1 a cualquiera de los dos Red Angus Angus toros o facilidad de parto y nos quedamos bastante satisfechos con los becerros resultantes. Lo que realmente nos impresionó fue el peso promedio de la vaca F1 relativo al peso del ternero se produce. “
“La otra cosa que fue impresionante fue las hectáreas por cada par que se requieren para ejecutar la F1 en comparación con los pares convencionales. Usted realmente tiene que mirar las hectáreas necesarias para dirigir una vaca cuando nos fijamos en las diferencias en el tamaño del marco. “ Tabla 4. Primas y El Producto Por Par Conventional Herd

“Tenemos cerca de 80 mujeres cabeza de F1 Lowline. Sabemos que la influencia Lowline reducirá el tamaño de la vaca. Se reducen los problemas de parto. Producimos zona más chuletón / Peso cien. Producimos más ganancia por acre. Y la influencia Lowline crea opciones de gestión que podemos implementar. Tenemos la oportunidad de criar toros a las novillas Lowline convencionales. La progenie masculina puede ser comercializado a través de canales tradicionales. Las hembras F1 de este cruce - ½ Lowline y novillas ½ convencionales se convierten en tus hembras de reemplazo en el hato Lowline terminal donde se comercializan todos los descendientes de estos de F1. Este sistema de ganado de carne resultados en el afeitado 300 libras de su tamaño vaca mientras se mantiene el músculo y la producción de los principales canales de la industria. “ Kris concluye su discusión sobre la influencia Lowline en el Centro de Investigación Dickinson, “La sangre Lowline ½ es realmente un diamante en bruto, es realmente algo por descubrir. Nuestra historia dice que la F1 hembra Lowline hace una manada fenomenal - que realmente hacen. Su reto es criar más vaquillas Lowline para hacer el de F1 y que la gente juzgar a los de F1. Usted necesita decirle a su historia - que trabajan, lo que realmente hacen “.
