ST Brahman & HK Cattle 8th Annual Spring Production Sale

Page 1


Welcome Brahman Friends, BREEDERS AND ENTHUS I ASTS

It’s hard to believe we are once again preparing to host our Annual Spring Production Sale. Each year brings new challenges and new opportunities, but our mission remains the same — to provide breeders with high-quality cattle that move the Brahman breed forward while equipping our customers with the knowledge and technology to strengthen their operations for the next generation.

Whether your focus is building maternal strength, introducing new and progressive genetics, or utilizing feed efficiency and performance data to make more informed decisions, this year’s offering represents a diverse and purposeful set of genetics designed to meet those goals. While our programs may travel different roads, we share the same destination — continual improvement of this great Brahman breed.

Genetics have always been at the core of both STgenetics Brahman and HK Cattle. Years of disciplined selection within proven cow families, strategic matings to elite sires, emphasis on feed efficiency, and commitment to phenotype have shaped our herds. As the industry continues to advance through genomics and DNA technology, we are committed to providing cattle backed by stronger data and more reliable tools to support confident, forward-thinking breeding decisions. We also are excited to have a great friend and partner in cattle, Juan Garcia with JK Peters Ranch consigning from his herd in this year’s sale.

We invite you to join us for our Annual Sale Party at 4:00 PM on Sunday, March 8th, at the Genetic Development Center. We will have food and refreshments available, along with opportunities to visit about genomics, feed efficiency, cattle evaluation, and strategic planning for future calf crops. Cattle will also be available for viewing by appointment beginning two weeks prior to sale day.

We sincerely appreciate your interest in our program and your continued trust in our genetics. We look forward to seeing you in Houston for the International Show and hope you will join us on March 8th for a day of education, fellowship, and camaraderie as we work together to advance the Brahman breed.

Sincerely,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Explanation GDC

ULTRASOUND SCANNING RESULTS

Feed is the single biggest expense in any livestock operation. As we select for animals that are more efficient, meaning animals that are able to demonstrate gains equal to their contemporaries while consuming less feed, we are not only lowering production costs but also minimizing the environmental footprint of that animal. The goal of the Genetic Development Center through feed efficiency testing is to identify animals that will add more bottom line profit to our customers while at the same time reduce the impact on the environment, which is beneficial to everyone.

Adapted From the Brahman Herd Improvement Records Program Manual. The Ultrasound Scanning Results Report consists of the final analysis of cattle that producers have scanned for carcass traits. Once your cattle are scanned by an approved Ultrasound Guidelines Approved Technician and have been interpreted by an approved lab, these results are reported to ABBA, added to your animal’s file, and then sent to you in this format. To obtain a copy of the ultrasound guidelines, visit the ABBA website or contact the ABBA office.

This report consists of the animal’s registration number, private herd number, date of birth, sex, sire and dam information, and the weight and age in days at the time of scanning.

RIBEYE AREA

The report gives the actual and adjusted ribeye area as well as a ration and rank for comparison within the contemporary group. The ribeye measurement is taken between the 12th and 13th rib. This measurement is a common estimator of total muscle.

The expected base Ribeye Area 1.1 in2/100 lbs of live weight. This would equate to a 1,000 lb animal having an 11.0 in2 REA. Anything under this would be less than ideal, while anything over this would be exceptional.

EFFICIENCY INDEX

This is a multiple trait index including residual feed intake, average daily gain and age with the objective of estimating the relationship of efficiency and gain. This intake is a tool that is expected to increase growth rate and decrease feed intake of the progeny from bulls and heifers with feed efficiency phenotypes.

RESIDUAL FEED INTAKE (RFI)

RFI is the difference between actual intake and predicted intake based on the animal’s gain, body weight, and composition. Animals on test are expected to eat “x” amount of feed according to their initial weight and target gain. The more they deviate from their expected intake, the more efficient or inefficient they are.

RFI = (Observed FI) – (Expected FI) FI = ADG + BW0.75 + Age + Pen + RFI

FEED EFFICIENCY (FE)

FE is the amount of feed consumed as compared with the body weight gained, expressed as a ratio – lbs. of feed/lb. of gain. In the example on the right from Summer 2024, Bull A and Bull B have similar Average Daily Gain; however, there was about nine pounds difference in dail Intake, making Bull B more profitable.

PRECENT IMP

The next columns give the results for Percent IMF (Intramuscular Fat or Marbling). The actual and adjusted measurements are given as well as the ratio and rank among the contemporaries for this trait. The IMF measurements provides an estimate of the degree of marbling or intramuscular fat deposited in the ribeye that ultimately affects the USDA Quality Grade.

RIB FAT AND RUMP FAT

The next two sets of columns report the actual and adjusted measurements for rib fat and rump fat as well as give the ratios and rank among the contemporary group for these two traits. The rib fat measurement is the most common measure of external fat on a carcass and is directly related to carcass yield grade. The rump fat measurement is an indicator of the total amount of carcass fat and is correlated to percent retail product: the more rump fat, the less pounds of lean product.
