We had one of the biggest Junior Nationals in the country, hosted an incredible World Tour, the Pacer Performance Program was launched and the fall show run was highly competitive and well attended. We’ve had to say good bye to some friends and respected members, and we are excited to welcome new members to this amazing breed. I look forward to seeing what 2026 will bring for everyone.

The Paper Trail From forms to figur Submitted By: Shayla Chappell The Paper Trail explores the records, registry processes, and performance data that support every registered Shorthorn. From forms to figures, this series is designed to help breeders better understand the fine print behind all things “registry”: pedigrees, EPDs, DNA, and recordkeeping.

It’s Not About Perfection

A common misconception is that whole herd reporting requires everything to be “ideal”. In reality, the opposite is true. Recording the following provides valuable information: ● Open cows ● Calves that were culled ● Performance outliers ● Animals that didn’t meet expectations Why not discuss how accurate documentation plays a key These records help identify patterns, strengths, and role in informed decisions, breed integrity, and the long-term weaknesses within a program.

Why Whole Herd Reporting Exists

Addressing Common Concerns

Some breeders worry that reporting poorer performance EPDs are designed to predict genetic potential- not will hurt their program’s reputation. In reality, experienced management, nutrition, or environment. To do this cattlemen and women understand that no herd is without accurately, genetic evaluations rely on unbiased data. When variation.

CSA Whole Herd Registry (WHR), A Quick Guide How fitting? The January Issue of the Canadian Shorthorn Report and the beginning of the 2026 Whole Herd Registry (WHR) enrollment. Here are some common questions we get from the membership regarding their WHR assessments. Who must be enrolled? Cows calving in 2026 and herd bulls with progeny being born in 2026. Your yearling heifers and bulls are not required when assessing your herd. Why is January important for WHR? It is the month when breeders are eligible to pay the lowest enrollment fee per animal ($30/head). Otherwise, members are expected to pay higher fees throughout the rest of the year. What if there is no calf to report or something happened to the cow I enrolled? There is always the ability to report either a calf birth record (even a commercial calf), a cow disposal, or a reason why there is not a calf (the cow aborted, she was an embryo donor, etc).

information. Whole Herd Reporting ensures that the data behind the Shorthorn herdbook accurately reflects real-world production, rather than selective snapshots. When every animal is counted, breeders gain clearer insights, buyers gain confidence, and the breed moves forward together. For further details, members are encouraged to review the CSA WHR Regulations on the CSA website or contact the CSA office with questions.

Upcoming Webinar Series Description

This year’s Beef Cattle Research Council webinar series will dig into topics that have an impact on your bottom line, including whether hormone implants are the right fit for your calves, how water quality and systems lead to better herd performance, and what you can do to reduce the risk of calf losses. All four webinars will be available for CE accreditation for veterinarians and RVTs. BCRC webinars are available and free of charge thanks to guest speakers who volunteer their time and expertise to support advancements in the Canadian beef industry, and through the BCRC’s knowledge mobilization work funded by the Canadian Beef Cattle Check-Off and Canada’s Beef Science Cluster. Recordings of our past webinars can be found on our webinars page: https://www.beefresearch.ca/webinars

Since we began measuring individual feed intake we have received a lot of feedback – some positive and some negative. One concern that arises is that negative RFI cattle (more feed efficient than other animals in their contemporary group) are not easy keeping. Some people believe that feed efficiency tests will heavily favor tall, lean, late-maturing, high maintenance animals that lack the propensity for fat deposition and fleshing ability.

If a person holds that opinion, why not select moderate sized, easy fleshing animals to test? Then, use the more feed efficient animals from that group in your breeding program. This is the approach that we are taking. We cull for all the reasons that we have for decades and then test the animals that make the cut. We ranked our yearling bulls tested in 2025 according to RFI and then split them into 3 groups: top (negative RFI), middle, and bottom (positive RFI). Then we looked at the average ratio of these 3 groups for intramuscular fat (IMF) and fat thickness (FAT). The top 1/3 had an IMF ratio average of 102, FAT ratio average of 101. The middle 1/3 had an IMF ratio average of 103, FAT ratio average of 101. The bottom 1/3 had an IMF ratio average of 96, FAT ratio average of 98. These results agree with industry research that suggests selecting for RFI has no effect on carcass quality. We also tested open purebred heifers in spring 2025. Daughters of Saskvalley Jangle 220J ate 5% less feed and had a slightly higher average daily gain than the rest of the pen. Because we have the ability to measure individual feed intake, we can select more feed efficient breeding stock and increase profitability.
