The Canadian Limousin Association thanks all participants at our recent Spotlight on Limousin focus groups. To view a full report of the session, including the presentations by Matthew Heleniak (Norwich Packers) and Jeff Trafford (Canada Beef), please visit our website. www.limousin.com

We will pay up to six cents more per pound for Limousin cross calves over Charolais. Our records proved the yield superiority of the Limousin cross animals. In our feedlot they achieved 63.1% compared to 61.5% for other pens.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGEJay-Dean Smyth

Diamond T Limousin

January 2012 edition of MB Ag Days saw Jaymarandy, Mitchell Farms and L&S Limousin with bulls on display. Jay-Dean had the table top display set up at her stall. The CLA stand-up banner arrived from Ontario but had a note

that it might not retract so we decided not to use it.

Kyle Wright set up the MLA display at Boissevain’s Farm Focus Day on March 2nd which is a

very well attended day of seminars and trade fair displays.

I took the table top display to the Douglas Bull Test Sale on Sat., April 7th. Attendance was down a bit at the Sale possibly due to the Easter long weekend and extremely windy weather. I wasn’t able to get to the Open House on March 26th due to bad weather and Hwy. 1 being closed most of the morning.

The Summer Show was held at the Portage Fair on July 7th and we put the MLA vinyl banner up at the show ring.

The CLA National Show was held in conjunction with the MB Livestock Expo in Brandon Oct. 31 to Nov. 3rd. Due to this, we were able to set up the MLA table top display and CLA stand-up Banner at the Taste of Beef event Wednesday evening. Limousin meat was used for all the different dishes. As the feature breed, we were able to move the displays to the main hallway for the duration of Livestock Expo.

If there are any beef events happening that you would like to use a Limousin display at, please contact Art Rodgers to make arrangements.

Promotion ReportSherry Daniel

We are planning to put a one page ad in the March issue of the Cattle Country newspaper. The cost of the ad will be covered by breeders. The more

breeders who participate the lower the cost per breeder and at present the

cost is around $150 each. Each breeder w i l l get their name, contact info and a short line to promote their bull sale or private treaty sale, etc. We will be using CLA advertising material to fill the page. As Cattle Country goes to all cattle producers in the province, it is a very effective means to promote the advantages of Limousin to commercial cattlemen. There is a packer demand for Limo carcasses and a shortage of Limo feeders to meet that demand. Increasing market share is an expensive venture and requires breeder commitment to make it happen. By working together and sharing the cost, all Limo breeders will benefit in the long run.

Commercia L imousin Breeders of the Year Marr Ranch - Cra ig & Lorna Marr, S i lver Ridge, Mb.

When we marr ied in 1980 i t was our dream that we would someday quit our jobs in Winnipeg and ranch for a l iv ing. We started out smal l with 20 cows and two quarters of land and bas ica l ly ranched on the week-ends and our hol idays. Dur ing the week Cra ig worked as much overt ime as poss ib le and Lorna worked two jobs. In 1987 we started our fami ly and in 1989 our second son was born. In a l i tt le over a decade our dream f inal ly became real i ty- - we were ranching fu l l t ime. We now had 60 cows and a b i t more land. I t was in 1989 when we purchased our f i rst Purebred L imou-s in Bul l “Xeno” from a good fr iend and neighbour. S ince that day L imo has been our main herd s i re. Our herd is made up of mainly S immental cross cows and we have found that the L imo/Simmental cross works very wel l for us in both ca l f s ize and in hei fer product ion. We are now home to 250 cows, 9 L imo bul ls (one of which is a L imo Angus Hybr id) and two black Angus bul ls which are used on the hei fers .

Through the years we have been str iv ing to concur our b iggest chal lenge - -How to get the cow herd to graze a l l year round? We

have worked with the Agr icultura l Reps in our area on many issues and have hosted 10 p lus farm tours . Everything from bale s i lage to bale graz ing. There have been two demonstrat ion s i tes set up on our ranch, one being the Al fa l fa Longevity P lot and the other being Brush Control us ing Inten -s ive Management Graz ing.

In 2005 our ranching pract ises changed and th is was a l l largely due to the Environmen-ta l Farm P lan workshop. This workshop was so great for our ranch that after Cra ig f in ished i t in 2005 Lorna took i t in 2006. Now we were both on the same page and met our 365 day graz ing chal lenge head on. We started cross fencing pastures, inten-s ive pasture management, so lar powered summer and winter water ing , leader-fo l -lower program, extended fa l l graz ing and pasture bale graz ing in the spr ing. In 2008 we were recognized by our peers and hon-oured as Manitoba Graz iers of the year for our area. We had the major i ty of the cows graz ing 220 days of the year now. In 2009 we added corn graz ing to our operat ion and feel that we have f inal ly accompl ished our goal of graz ing a lmost 365 days of the year. Guess now we might have to start the L imo bul ls at the other end of the corn patch and have them meet the cows in

the middle when breeding season starts .

10 MB Limousin News & Views Bull Issue 2013

It’s that time of year again!The bull season is upon us once again. The Canadian Limousin Association reminds you to help us help you before leaving some important details to the last minute;

• Did you post your bull sale on the CLA website? It is interactive if you have

access to the internet, or call our office with the details. We are also able to link to your posted catalogue.If you do not have a way of posting your catalogue on another website (for us to link to), we will post your PDF version for $50.• Are all your bulls registered? Will you have to order DNA before registration? No time like the present to get it all done.• You may opt to register now but hold the printing of the certificates until you are ready to transfer to the new owners. That is an option that saves both you the member, and us the association, some time and resources!• Do you need material for your sale? Posters, breed brochures, coffee cups are available if needed. But please let us know as early as possible.Not hosting a sale but have cattle for sale?If you have breeding stock for sale privately, the CLA website is now able to accommodate your needs via a new classified page specially dedicated to breeding stock. Listings are $50 without expiration. We can include a link to your website or a PDF version of your ad. Spotlight on LimousinConferring with all industry segments, Limousin cattle breeders seek to better understand and realign their breeding decisions with client priorities. The Canadian Limousin Association hosted two round table sessions entitled “Spotlight on Limousin” comprising representatives of the meat packers, cattle feeders, cow-calf operators and their own purebred producers in order to discuss traits of value inherent to the Limousin breed and how to apply them to maximize performance and profitability. One session took place in Ontario on December 3rd, the other was held in Calgary on December 10th. Matthew Heleniak of Norwich Packers presented to the session, emphasizing the unique characteristics of Limousin cattle and their high yielding ability that his operation relies upon to service a demanding market in Ontario. Norwich packers operate a vertically integrated operation that feeds, slaughters, packs and markets primarily Limousin hybrid cattle sourced in Alberta.

Jeff Trafford of Canada Beef Inc. spoke to the retail marketing element of Canadian branded beef and the importance of leveraging the Canadian Beef brand for all high-quality Canadian beef. He encouraged producers to call upon the organization in a support capacity, as the CBI works to add value to all aspects of Canadian beef value chain, bringing broader net benefit back to check-off contributors. With lively participation from over 80 participants at both the Ontario and the Alberta sessions, the forums developed a renewed plan for the Limousin breed, refocusing on adding muscle and yield naturally by crossbreeding. This information will be applied to raise the profile of superior Limousin genetics within the entire beef value chain and the need to supply cattle that achieve greater yield.A detailed report is also posted on the CLA website (under Research and Development) along with the speakers’ presentations. Visit www.limousin.com to access.Here is some interesting specific information that came out of the sessions:• When we asked each segment (seedstock, commercial, feedlots and packers); which traits are important to them when selecting animals for their operation, the only traits that made everyone’s list were; Feed Efficiency ●Muscling/Yield ● Size/Frame. The remaining of their top 10 most important traits were specific to their respective segment but did not make other segment’s list.• Docility came up at both the Ontario and the Calgary sessions. While most agreed that it is no longer an issue with Limousin cattle, all identified that it is still perceived as a problem. Many purebred breeders are not promoting the availability of the docility EPD and/or not contributing their docility scores. Many cattle buyers do not know that tool exist. • While more muscling is expected from our cattle, it ap¬pears that our work on improving maternal traits has been noticed. Somewhere in between is where the value chain expects us to be.

See you in Neepawa!The Canadian Limousin Association Annual General Meeting and Canadian National Junior Limousin Conference will be in Neepawa, Manitoba August 2-4. We look forward to seeing you there. More details to come.
