    Kenny Creek's Angus Introduction

    HAVING WRITTEN THIS INTRODUCTORY comment for over 25 years I can’t recall a set of market and climate conditions that have been more favourable to the breeding of high quality Angus cattle.

    The markets for both live Angus cattle and high quality Angus meat are running at levels not seen before. Demand for Angus heifers extends from Russia, Turkey, Vietnam, Mexico, and of course China. This comes at a time when the Australian herd is in a rebuilding phase on the back of an extended drought period in Eastern Australia.

    The fortunes of cattle producers and red meat processors have reversed and processors are now struggling to accommodate their cost of raw materials and at the same time meeting tougher export markets. This situation is neither sustainable nor healthy for our industry and better long term market processes must be thought through to avoid the winner/loser syndrome we are stuck in.

    The international settings are challenging with Australian finished steer prices, compared to their US counterparts, performing at levels not previously seen. Traditionally the long term sees the US price as the more expensive and the discount between the two is traditionally around 40% but recently it is only 12% and in the last weeks has closed off completely. In some instances Australian steer prices have exceeded the US price of finished steers. This travels very much against a long trend and comes at a time when US demand for beef is showing some softness in the futures market, on the back of price competition from poultry and pork. This would indicate that we are headed for a correction of sorts.

    Whilst I suspect we are close to the top, Australia in the short and medium term will be driven more by local supply and seasonal issues than by international markets. This is in direct contrast to the situation a little earlier.

    We are seeing some capacity constraints with regards to pricing in the Chinese market which is proving more challenging, with a currently overstocked position on products that have not yet been sold in the local market. Sam Burton Taylor observes in our own Chinese marketing that there is greater consumer sensitivity to pricing change, which has been severely impacted by competition from Brazil and seemingly unsustainably high levels of the Australian dollar.

    Interestingly Brazil will end the year with the second sharpest decline in its per capita income in 116 years with GDP decreasing 3.5% this year alone. The effect of this has been to embolden their export efforts into a number of our established markets and put negative price pressure into the system.

    All of these factors combine with strong aggregate demand from both export and domestic to indicate that the market, whilst it may have peaked, is entering a period of some price equilibrium rather than experiencing the dramatic rises of the recent past.

    Turning to the bulls on offer in this Spring 2016 sale.

    I could not be more pleased with the draft of bulls being put before you. They exhibit a conformity in type that we have been striving for, for many years. Thickness across the loin, strong topline with smooth shoulders, strong muscle profile, width from the rear and placed on a sound “chassis” of strong legs and feet. There is a consistency across the draft in all of these features.

    These eye pleasing characteristics are contained in an EBV package which has now given us above breed performance in all the key traits that we have focused on, namely: calving ease, eye muscle area, marbling and growth.

    Kenny's Creek Angus stud female sale in November, featuring 70 Herd Book Recorded females.

    www.kennyscreek.com.au

    The sale features a number of sires which were identified by Adam Withers, Stud Manager Kenny’s Creek Angus, on his trip to the USA to look at potential sires and cow herds. The sale features Broken Bow, Grade Up, Outliner, Complement, Mentor and Docklands. In addition to these sires the catalogue is well presented with a number of Kenny’s Creeks own sires, including KCA Darwin, which have performed exceptionally well and blend in impressively with the imported sire lines.

    A few stand outs are as follows:

    Lot 1 K263 is a very soft, well-muscled Broken Bow son. This bull is an exceptionally low -0.2 for birth weight with both 200 day and 400 day growth figures over breed average and EMA 7. A truly outstanding spread from birth to 400 days.

    Lot 5 K302 is by Outliner, a deep bodied heavily muscled bull, positive calving ease bull, 2.1, below average birth weight and above average 200, 400 and 600 day growth.

    Lot 36 L28, a 2015 Autumn drop bull, is a Complement son, positive calving ease low birth weight bull and above average for all growth traits. EMA 7.8, positive rib and rump fat with an IMF% of 2.8.

    In all, the sale is offering eleven embryo transfer sons. These bulls are born July 2015 out of some of the best cows at Kenny’s Creek. Donor cow D147 has four Broken Bow sons and two Regent sons while the donor cow Z291 has one Harvestor son.

    It will be interesting to see how the various Angus sales price themselves this Spring. I suspect that there are insufficient cows in the market to lead to any silly pricing but competition will be strong for cross purpose bulls that allow both heifer and cow joinings. A large proportion of our catalogue now allows for bulls to be used for such purpose and this duality has been one of the prime objectives of our breeding policy.

    It is worth drawing to your attention that we sell over half our bulls by private treaty in the paddock during the course of the year. This suits a lot of clients who may find the auction system daunting or fail to achieve their objectives in the more competitive environment. If after your Spring purchases you find yourself in a position where you would like to supplement your sires please consider this an option as we have a range of bulls from high quality sire lines with full HBR data to specially bred commercial bulls with sire data from an elite cow herd run at Breakfast Creek Station.

    As always we remain fascinated with this industry and implore you to provide us with feedback on your purchases.

  • 4 KENNY ’S CREEK 2016 SPRING SALE

    THE SELECTION AND BREEDING program at Kenny’s Creek is driven by a systems based approach that has at its heart a rigorous and a non-emotional approach to genetic selection. It seeks to produce trouble free performance bulls for our clients.

    A brief summary of the key points of our approach is as follows:

    SIRE SELECTION Kenny’s Creek has been at the forefront of making use of structural information, with every animal in our breeding herd scored at least every two years. We have amassed over 100,000 individual items of data. We have developed systems to analyse this data and rank the performance of sire and cow lines. This has sometimes given surprising feedback that enables us to react early to structural issues inherited by sire lines.

    We take the attitude that a new sire has too “squeeze its way” into our program. We comprehensively examine sires including viewing progeny, dams, granddams, sisters and any other family members available.

    We don’t feel it is noteworthy to boast a high cull rate of bulls presented for sale as this demonstrates a lack of research and homework on matings. A low cull rate for us means more predictable progeny for our client’s herds. We aim through tightly researched breeding principles and using high accuracy parents, to reduce mistakes and minimize surprises.

    Once sires have passed this assessment we then look at EBVs, either on Angus Breedplan or multi-breed Breedplan. We keep in mind that some of our clients sell steers to the domestic market and some look at the Long Fed index. We are not a “one – index” breeder.

    FEMALES We run an elite herd of cows that are constantly assessed and reassessed for the inclusion in the donor group. We are currently producing in excess of 600 embryos per year and have implanted 500 recipients for the program.

    4. Evaluation of testicular function. Experienced testicular palpation is an extremely accurate method of detecting semen quality problems which may interfere with natural mating. Any abnormalities are thoroughly checked with a semen quality test.

    INDEPENDENCE AND TRANSPARENCY Kenny’s Creek is not “mortgaged” to anyone else’s program. We do not have to compromise our objectives to suit any other players other than our own clients.

    All the information that we collect and that will help clients in making an informed decision is published in our catalogue or our website.

    COMPOSITE PROGRAM Some of the observers of Kenny’s Creek must wonder at our commitment to Angus cattle when looking at our composite breeding program which have been running for a number of operators in northern Australia as well as our own operation at Bellevue and Nychum Stations, north of Chillagoe on Cape York Peninsula. All our breeding operations are predicated on the knowledge we have developed from breeding Angus Cattle.

    In our own composite for Northern Australia we have relied on the carcase accuracy of the Angus breed to enhance the predominately Brahman herd that we have in situ. It reinforces the enormous opportunity we have within the Angus breed lever off the data base and genetic information we have across Australia, New Zealand and North America. No other breed has an equivalent system advantage and this is being used in our own operation to breed animals that perform from a production point of view in Northern Australia and from a carcase point of view its marketability in Southern Australia.

    MOTIVATION We enjoy what we do and are happy to stand by what we produce.

    The Kenny’s Creek ProgramWe are constantly looking for new females outside our herd to challenge our own females. However, any selections are subject to the same stringent tests we apply to our own females. Consequently it is not surprising that we have a high “casualty” rate with “bought in” females.

    INTERNATIONAL BENCHMARKING AND GLOBAL NETWORK As the Kenny’s Creek herd have such strong carcase qualities we have found that we can complement the New Zealand bloodlines well and incorporate their excellent structure and functional qualities. We are annual visitors to overseas breeders who we regard as leaders in their country.

    Independent Evaluation Our protocol for breeding soundness has four elements to it.

    1. Assessment of structural soundness. All our bulls have been assessed independently for structural soundness. In the case of our females we assess them at their first lactation and continue this practice at regular intervals throughout their lives.No females remain in the donor or breeding program that have short comings on their structural assessment which includes a rigorous ‘life time’ evaluation of temperament.

    Structural soundness is also assessed in all sires introduced to the program via artificial insemination. We use a range of trusted consultants in the event we have difficulty in evaluating the bull ourselves. To allow a new bull onto our sire list we review his female progeny for as many generations as possible.

    2. Physical evaluation of testicular and penile function. This test is carried out by a qualified Veterinary Scientist and is performed on all sale animals.

    3. Physical observation of serving ability. While difficult and time consuming no test better indicates a bulls libido and unmistakable ability to serve a cow than a serving ability test. All bulls are confirmed as achieving a satisfactorily mount and service of a cow. This test is performed under Veterinary Scientist’s supervision and is independently verified for each bull. No short cuts allowed.

    Kenny's Creek GuaranteeALL BULLS HAVE BEEN independently evaluated for structural soundness and fertility. The detailed methodology for these assessments is set out in the catalogue under 'Performance and Animal Health'.

    To the best of our knowledge the bulls are all in sound working condition at the time of sale. If, during the next 12 months, a bull becomes infertile or breaks down, provided it is not caused by injury or disease contracted after leaving Kenny’s Creek Angus, we will:

    Replace the bull with as close a match as possible; or

    Grant a full credit (less any salvage value) for any purchase at Kenny’s Creek Angus sales.

    Semen InterestKENNY’S CREEK ANGUS HAS retained a 50% interest in the semen rights on all bulls. As bull owners, you would be only too aware that young bulls do not always exhibit their full potential until later in life when their progeny are on the ground and are evaluated.

    To ensure a proper balance of risk and reward, Kenny’s Creek Angus will share the semen selling benefits equally with the bull owner. Thus the new bull owner will share in future semen promotion and sales emanating from any purchase.

    The arrangements are as follows: The purchaser has full possession and responsibility for bull;

    Kenny’s Creek Angus has no interest in the salvage value of the bull;

    If the bull is on-sold Kenny’s Creek Angus retains its semen rights going forward;

    The purchaser can collect semen for any use, but if sold to others the benefits are shared;

    If Kenny’s Creek Angus wishes to collect semen we will do so at our own cost and at times suitable to the bull owner;

    The management of semen sales and marketing is the task of Kenny’s Creek Angus.

    HEALTH STATUS Bovine Johne’s Disease (BJD). The Kenny’s Creek Angus herd (both stud and commercial cattle) covering all our Boorowa properties, has been assessed and tested under the National Johne’s Disease Market Assurance Program and holds MN2 (Monitored Negative 2) Status. No further testing required transporting bulls Australia wide.

    Pestivirus. Pestivirus is an endemic viral disease in Australia. There is serological evidence of pestivirus in greater than 70% of beef herds in NSW. A pestivirus management plan was commenced in the Kenny’s Creek herd. This involved exposing all weaner cattle to the virus. All exposed animals have lifetime immunity.

    Refer to our website for further information.

    FERTILITY All the Kenny’s Creek Angus bulls have passed a comprehensive Breeding Soundness Examination.

    A Breeding Soundness Examination consists of testing procedures used to identify highly fertile bulls. These three components are:

    1. Assessment of structural soundness. All bulls need good leg, feet and prepucial structure to ensure an active working life. Bulls with poor structure have a higher incidence of premature breakdown.

    2. Evaluation of testicular function. Experienced testicular palpation is an extremely accurate method of detecting semen quality problems which may interfere with natural mating. Measurement of the scrotal circumference gives us an indication of the semen producing ability of the bull. Measurements are made just prior to sale and are provided in this catalogue.

    3. All bulls are given a serving ability test to guarantee their capability and libido to serve cows successfully.

    FEET AND LEGS Great attention has been paid to both feet and legs in our breeding program and no feet are ever trimmed. The soft country that all our stud cattle run on shows up quickly in the feet if problems exist.

    RED GENE It is important to be aware that the red gene exists in Angus cattle and has done so since foundation. While the black gene remains dominant the red colour will surface if both the sire and dam carry the red gene. Obviously this is more likely in cross breeding situations.

    TEMPERAMENT Temperament in our whole herd is assessed constantly and ruthlessly. This policy has been in place for 20 years. It is always possible through the use of overseas sires to inadvertently import a problem. However, to mitigate against this we always obtain direct reports on any temperament issues prior to using new sires. Clearly all working bulls are selected, in part for their libido and fertility attributes and as such require an understanding management approach in their handling.

    Performance and Animal HealthHEALTH MANAGEMENT After you have purchased a low risk bull as described above it is important to manage him correctly to ensure a long effective working life. Ensure you vaccinate your bulls annually with 7 in 1 and vibrio vaccine. All Kenny’s Creek Angus bulls have had their initial two vaccinations and now only require annual vaccination.

    Monitor the body condition of your bulls. Maintain your bulls in condition score 3. Young bulls require good nutrition. Don’t allow your older bulls to become over fat. Over fat bulls have a greater risk of injury and also achieve poorer conception rates.

    The variation in climatic conditions (temperate extremes) and grazing conditions in Central and Northern Queensland can have a large effect on the quality of semen the bull produces. It is recommended that after you purchase a new bull and relocate him to a new grazing environment that you have his semen examined prior to joining.

    MONITORING NEW BULLS Any new bulls being joined for their first time are at a greater risk of achieving poor conception rates due to injury or infection. It is therefore important to monitor new bulls closely.

    In well managed herds we expect 60-70% of conception to occur in the first 3 weeks, it is extremely important to monitor new bulls during this period. Cows joined to new bulls need to be inspected 2 to 3 times per week for the first 3 weeks and then weekly thereafter.

    What to look out for: Lameness Swelling in the area of the penis or testicles

    Penis unable to be exteriorized from the sheath

    Inflamed or reddened penis Bulls attempting to mount but not serving

    Any signs of systemic disease i.e. lethargic

    Cows still in estrus towards the end of the joining period.

    It is important to remember that problems can develop during the joining period. Some of these problems cannot be prevented so early detection is the only way to minimize their impact.

  • KENNY ’S CREEK 2016 SPRING SALE 7

    OUR STUD COWS AND CALVES are run under commercial conditions on mostly improved pastures with supplementary feeding occurring when necessary. This allows the collection of realistic early growth and milk production data for our cattle and starts the process of culling for poor performers.

    Calves are weaned at approximately 5 to 7 months depending on the season. All the calves are vaccinated again with 7 in 1 and the bull calves vaccine with Vibriosis vaccine as well as being drenched. Bulls and heifers are separated at weaning and each group run separately which allows a good comparison of various genetics and the collection of meaningful data on growth and carcase traits data.

    During the winter in the Boorowa area the weaner bulls and heifers are supplemented enough to maintain some growth while there is no pasture growth. When spring pasture becomes available the bulls are then given access to improved pasture for as long as it lasts.

    During their time at Kenny’s Creek all young cattle are visited frequently and are familiar with vehicles, people on foot and horses. Cattle are handled with horses, quiet dogs and motorbikes.

    We place great emphasis on temperament in our cattle both in the paddock and in the yard. They are used to being worked in yards and the paddock with a minimum of labour.

    To achieve maximum genetic gain in our commercial herd and to negate the need for keeping older bulls on our two operating properties, a selection of yearling bulls, resident at Kenny’s Creek, are used at 14 months after passing a serving ability test to ensure they are mature enough to work.

    Prior to joining, the bulls are vaccinated and drenched again and undergo a veterinary check for any abnormalities. Yearling bulls are only joined to a maximum of 30 cows, so that they can maintain some growth and condition through the nine week joining period. The young bulls are monitored every few days and removed from the cows if any abnormality or problem arises, so as not to upset his ongoing libido and long term wellbeing.

    EXPECTATIONS AND CARE OF YOUR NEW BULL Once the bull sale group has been selected we ask Jim Green, Beef Excel independent structural assessor, to review all the bulls and report on them structurally. Any bulls deemed unsound during any of these processes are culled.

    As a further check Reon Holmes BVSc puts all bulls through a breeding soundness examination that checks structural soundness (again), testicular function and serving ability. Details of these examinations are set out in the Performance and Animal Health section of this catalogue.

    All bulls presented for sale here have been treated kindly and with respect but at the same time treated as they would be in a commercial herd and are therefore prepared for the rigors of a healthy working life.

    Your bull from here on should be treated with twice yearly vaccinations, a 7 in 1, an annual Vibriosis booster, strategic drenching according to your area, supplementary feeding as necessary without letting mature bulls get over fat and a thorough health check 6 to 8 weeks prior to joining. An annual serving ability test prior to joining is the ideal.

    As a result of this demanding evaluation process, we have confidence in the bull’s performance, his structural soundness and his fertility.

    We are keen to keep tabs on the bulls we sell and any feedback regarding their performance, whether good or bad, is actively sought.

    When selecting your bulls, please feel free to use the Kenny’s Creek Team to assist you in your choices.

    Structural InformationBEEF CLASS STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM Structural problems in cattle have a substantial effect on both the reproductive and growth performance of a beef herd. It is widely recognised that structural problems in sires have detrimental effects on conception rates, calving patterns and thus profitability. Similarly, females with inadequate structural characteristics are more prone to weaning lighter calves or conceiving later in the breeding season than their more functional counterparts. These structural problems are filtered through the supply chain resulting in reduced income for the producer, feedlot and thus reducing the overall productivity of the Australian Beef Industry.

    Over the past decade, use of the Beef Class Structural Assessment System in the seedstock industry has produced a marked improvement in herds which have shown commitment to using the information appropriately. Through these dedicated breeders, there has been a flow on affect of structural improvement throughout all sectors of the beef cattle industry.

    Jim Green and Liam Cardile of ‘BEEFXCEL’ service many of the leading seedstock herds in Australia. ‘BEEFXCEL’ is not involved in any genetic marketing or specific breeding advice and therefore has no conflict of interests to influence their stock appraisal. The integrity of the structural data provided by ‘BEEFXCEL’ is recognised throughout the industry as Jim and Liam are fully INDEPENDENT assessors.

    KENNYS CREEK STRUCTURAL PROGRAMThe 2016 Kenny’s Creek spring sale bulls have been independently structurally assessed to maximise the quality of stock on offer. Any animals deemed inadequate have been removed from the sale draft. The Kenny’s Creek sale bulls were assessed by Jim Green of BEEFXCEL on 20 June 2016.

    HOW TO USE THE BEEF CLASS STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM The Beef Class Structural Assessment System uses a 1–9 scoring system:

    A score of 5 is ideal. (Note: Temperament Score of 1 is preferable)

    A score of 4 or 6 shows slight variation from ideal, but this includes most animals. An animal scoring 4 or 6 would be acceptable in any breeding program.

    A score of 3 or 7 shows greater variation but would be acceptable in most commercial programs. However, seedstock producers should be vigilant and understand that this score indicates greater variation from ideal.

    A score of 2 or 8 are low scoring animals and should be looked closely before purchasing.

    A score of 1 or 9 should not be catalogued and are considered culls.

    THIS IS INFORMATION FOR BULL BUYERS about the recessive genetic conditions, Arthrogryposis Multiplex (AM), Hydrocephalus (NH), Contractural Arachnodactyly (CA) and Developmental Duplications (DD).

    PUTTING GENETIC RECESSIVE CONDITIONS IN PERSPECTIVEAll animals, including humans, carry single copies (alleles) of undesirable or “broken” genes. In single copy form, these undesirable alleles usually cause no harm to the individual. But when animals carry 2 copies of certain undesirable or “broken” alleles it often results in bad consequences. Advances in genomics have facilitated the development of accurate diagnostic tests to enable the identification and management of numerous undesirable or “broken” genes. Angus Australia is proactive in providing its members and their clients with relevant tools and information to assist them in the management of known undesirable genes and our members are leading the industry in their use of this technology.

    Key point: With today’s DNA tools undesirable genetic conditions can be managed.

    WHAT ARE AM, NH, CA AND DD?AM, NH, CA and DD are all recessive conditions caused by “broken” alleles within the DNA of individual animals. When a calf inherits 2 copies of the AM or NH alleles their development is so adversely affected that they will be still-born.

    In other cases, such as CA and DD, calves carrying 2 copies of the broken allele may reach full-term. In such cases the animal may either appear relatively normal, or show physical symptoms that affect their health and/or performance.

    Key point: The number of reported observations of AM, NH, CA and DD calves is very low and there is certainly no need for panic.

    Recessive Genetic ConditionsHOW ARE THE CONDITIONS INHERITED?Research in the U.S. and Australia indicates that AM, NH, CA and DD are simply inherited recessive conditions. This means that a single gene (or pair of alleles) controls the condition. For this mode of inheritance two copies of the undesirable allele need to be present before the condition is seen; in which case you may get an abnormal calf. A more common example of a trait with a simple recessive pattern of inheritance is black and red coat colour.

    Animals with only one copy of the undesirable allele (and one copy of the normal form of the allele) appear normal and are known as “carriers”.

    WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CARRIERS ARE MATED TO OTHER ANIMALS?Carriers, will on average, pass the undesirable allele to a random half (50 %) of their progeny.

    When a carrier bull and carrier cow is mated, there is a 25% chance that the resultant calf will inherit two normal alleles, a 50% chance that the mating will result in a carrier (i.e. with just 1 copy of the undesirable allele, and a 25% chance that the calf will inherit two copies of the undesirable gene.

    If animals tested free of the undesirable gene are mated to carrier animals the condition will not be expressed at all. All calves will appear normal, but approximately half (50%) could be expected to be carriers.

    Key point: For the condition to be expressed the undesirable gene needs to be present on both sides of the pedigree and both the sire and dam need to be a carrier.

    HOW IS THE GENETIC STATUS OF ANIMALS REPORTED?DNA-based diagnostic tests have been developed which can be used to determine whether an individual animal is either a carrier or free of the alleles resulting in AM, NH, CA or DD.

    Angus Australia uses advanced software to calculate the probability of (untested) animals to being carriers of AM, NH, CA or DD. The software uses the test results of any relatives in the calculations and the probabilities may change as new results for additional animals become available.

    The genetic status of animals is being reported using five categories:

    AMF: Tested AM free

    AMFU: Based on pedigree AM free – Animal has not been tested

    AM__%: _% probability the animal is an AM carrier

    AMC: Tested AM-Carrier

    AMA: AM-Affected

    For NH, CA and DD, simply replace AM in the above table with NH, CA or DD.

    Registration certificates and the Angus Australia web-database display these codes. This information is displayed on the animal details page and can be accessed by conducting an “Animal Search” from the Angus Australia website or looking up individual animals listed in a sale catalogue.

    Key point: The genetic status of an animal is subject to change and will be re- analysed and adjusted each week as DNA test results of relatives are received.

    IMPLICATIONS FOR COMMERCIAL PRODUCERSYour decision on the importance of the genetic condition status of replacement bulls should depend on the genetics of your cow herd (which bulls you previously used) and whether some female progeny will be retained or sold as breeders.

    Most Angus breeders are proactive and transparent in managing known genetic conditions, endeavouring to provide the best information available. The greatest risk to the commercial sector from undesirable genetic recessive conditions comes from unregistered bulls with unknown genetic background. The genetic condition testing that Angus Australia seedstock producers are investing in provides buyers of registered Angus bulls with unmatched quality assurance.

    Understanding Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs)

    ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVs) are predictions of an animal’s genetic merit, based on available performance data on the individual and its relatives. EBVs are expressed in the units of measurement for each particular trait. They are shown as +ive or -ive differences

    from the breed base. As the breed base is set to a historical benchmark, the average EBVs of animals in each year drop has changed over time as a result of genetic change within the breed. The current breed averages are shown below. These averages provide a useful benchmark for comparing EBVs for animals.

    CALVING EASE TRAITSCalving Ease (DIR): estimate of genetic differences among animals in the ability of their calves from 2 year old heifers to be born unassisted. Higher, more +ive, Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are more favourable. Calving Ease (DTRS): estimates of genetic differences among animals in the ability of their 2 year old daughters to calve without assistance. Higher, more +ive, Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are more favourable. Gestation Length: estimate of genetic differences among animals in the number of days from the date of conception until the calf birth date. Lower, or more -ive, Gestation Length EBVs are generally more favourable. Birth Wt: estimate of genetic differences between animals in kg of calf birth weight. Calf birth weight is the biggest contributing factor causing calving difficulty in heifers. While low Birth Wt EBVs are favoured for calving ease they are also often associated with lower growth potential. Small, or moderate, Birth Wt EBVs are more favourable.

    FERTILITY TRAITSDays to Calving (DC): estimate of genetic differences among in female fertility, expressed as the number of days from the start of the joining period until subsequent calving. Females with shorter DC EBVs tend to commence cycling earlier after calving and conceive earlier in the joining period. They also tend to attain puberty at a younger age as heifers. Lower, or more -ive, Days to Calving EBVs are more favourable. Scrotal Size: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in scrotal circumference at 400 days of age. Increased scrotal size is associated with increased semen production in bulls, and earlier age at puberty of bull and heifer progeny. Larger, or more +ive, Scrotal Size EBVs are more favourable.

    GROWTH TRAITS200-Day Wt: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in weight at 200 days of age. This is a measure of an animal’s early growth to weaning. It is an important trait for breeders turning off animals as vealers or weaners. 400-Day Wt: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in weight at 400 days of age. This is an important trait for breeders turning off animals as yearlings. 600-Day Wt: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in live-weight at 600 days of age. This is an important trait for breeders targeting the production of animals suited for heavy weight grass finished or grain fed market

    MATERNAL TRAITSMilk: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in milk production potential, expressed through variation in calf growth performance. Larger, more +ive, or moderate, Milk EBVs can be more favourable, depending on the environment. Mature Cow Wt: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in cow weight at 5 years of age.

    CARCASE TRAITSCarcase Wt: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in hot standard carcase weight at 750 days of age. Larger, more +ive, Carcase Weight EBVs are more favourable. EMA: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in eye muscle area (cm2) at the 12/13th rib site on a 400kg carcase. Larger, more +ive, EMA EBVs are generally more favourable. Rib Fat: estimate of the genetic differences among animals in fat depth (mm) at the 12/13th rib site, measures on a 400kg carcase. More positive (+ive), or more negative (-ive), Rib Fat EBVs may be more favourable, depending on your breeding goals. (Continued over)

    CARCASE TRAITS ContinuedRump Fat: estimate of genetic differences among animals in fat depth at the P8 rump site on a standard 400kg carcase. More positive (+ive), or more negative (-ive), Rib Fat EBVs may be more favourable, depending on your breeding goals. IMF%: estimate of genetic differences among animals in percentage intra-muscular fat (marbling) in a 400kg carcase.

    EFFICIENCY TRAITSNet Feed Intake (NFI): estimate of the genetic differences between animals in efficiency. NFI is measured either post weaning (NFI-P), in young bulls and heifers, fed at around 300 days of age, or in steers fed at around 560 days of age (NFI- F). Lower, more negative (–ive) NFI EBVs are more favourable.

    TEMPERAMENT TRAITSDocility: estimate of genetic differences between animals in temperament. Docility EBVs are expressed as differences in the percentage of progeny that will be scored with acceptable temperament (ie. either "docile" or "restless"). Higher Docility EBVs are more favourable.

    $INDEX VALUESAngus Breeding: estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow, joined in a typical commercial self-replacing herd using Angus bulls. This selection index is not specific to a particular production system or market end-point, but identifies animals that will improve overall profitability in the majority of commercial grass and grain finishing beef production systems. The index is particularly suited to commercial producers who sell progeny into different markets, or to seedstock producers supplying bulls to commercial clients who produce for a range of different production systems and market end points. Domestic: estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined in a commercial self-replacing herd targeting the domestic supermarket trade, with progeny finished using either grass, grass supplemented by grain or grain finishing systems. Heavy Grain: estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined in a commercial self-replacing herd targeting pasture grown steers with a 200 day feedlot finishing period for the grain fed high quality, highly marbled markets. Heavy Grass: estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined in a commercial self-replacing herd targeting pasture finished heavy steers.

    TRAITS OBSERVEDIndicates the traits that have been recorded for a particular animal and are contributing to the EBVs that have been calculated. These will appear directly below the table displaying the animals EBVs.

    UNDERSTANDING ACCURACIESThe accuracy associated with an EBV gives an indication of its reliability, and the likely extent of its possible change as more information becomes available. As more data becomes available on animals (or its progeny, or relatives) then the accuracy of its EBVs for particular traits will increase. Accuracies are influenced by the heritability of traits and the genetic associations existing between them. For lowly heritable traits, more information is required to achieve a similar accuracy to that of highly heritable traits. Accuracies are expressed as percentages. The higher the percentage, the greater the chance that the EBV is a close estimate of the animal’s true genetic merit, and the less likelihood that the EBV will change as more information becomes available.
