WELCOME
Welcome to Nelson Livestock Company’s 2012 bull sale
Your interest and attendance is appreciated. It is a very good time to be in the beef
business and we as producers continue to increase production per cow especially as
production costs continue to rise. Our program has always promoted the use and
value of heterosis. A good crossbreeding program lets you use this hybrid vigor to be
more profitable and the planned crossbred calf crop you raise is better for this business
because it combines the strengths of the parent breeds.
We have been raising and selling Simmental seedstock for over 40 years and feel
we have a strong offering of Simmental, SimAngus (red and black) and Angus bulls.
The fall bulls were born into the tough winter of 2010/2011 (126 inches of snow
recorded) and raised on their mothers and long hay. With all the adversity, their
weaning weights were a little lighter than some years and then they were summer
pastured on grass. The spring born bulls were weaned in October but did not get a 205
day weight until November. The bulls then were developed on CHS’s H1-EN bull
challenger, ground alfalfa, grass hay, and grass haylege. We develop these bulls in a 25
acre pasture to help insure they get plenty of exercise and are in the right condition to
go to work. At Nelson Livestock Company, we are breeding on, not feeding on growth
and performance.
Thanks to Dr Terry Hall and Dr AJ Domek from the Wibaux Vet Clinic for help
with the Nelson Livestock health program, Jay Temchack for the excellent clipping
job and Jason McLennan for ultrasounding the bulls. Thanks also to Joe Blankenship
and Gary and the crew at Golva Coop Elevator for their help developing the feeding
program for our bulls.
We are working with Allied Genetic Resources and we hope our alliance with
Allied will provide more dollars for your operation. Marty Ropp will be at the sale
and we will have a short program immediately to talk about options for adding value
to your feeder cattle.
Thanks,
The Nelson’s

QUICK GUIDE
to ASA EPDs and $ INDEXES
Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and
effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference
between two sires’ EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the
performance of their progeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of +10
and –5, a 15-unit difference would be expected in their progeny (moving from
-5 to +10 yields 15 units). Key to using EPDs is knowing what units they are
expressed in. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPDs,
A would be expected to sire 15-pounds more weaning weight than B. If calving
ease were the trait, A would be expected to sire 15-percent more unassisted
births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if B sired 30 assists in a group of
100 heifers, we’d expect A to require 15 assists. A percentile-ranking chart is
required to determine where a bull’s EPDs rank him relative to other bulls in
the breed. For percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPDs
and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units ASA EPDs
are expressed in:
All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire
scenario. (See below for more details.)
Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat.
Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight.
Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers.
Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight.
Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving
daughters.
Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk.
Marbling (MRB): Marbling score.
Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk
and growth.
Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye.
Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a
steak.
Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years
of age.
Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario.
(See below for more details.)
Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight.
Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.
Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score.
$ Indexes: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many
economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle.
That’s where $ indexes come in. Through well-conceived, rigorous mathematical
computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal’s
overall impact on your bottom line. The same technology that led to the dramatic
progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several decades
was used to develop the following $ indexes:
All-Purpose Index (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd
(bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their
daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers
and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield.
Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all
offspring put on feed and sold grade and yield.
Using API and TI: First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping
replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit
difference between bulls. (As described above, index units are in dollars per
cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is
worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for
one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type
sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra
$6,000 over a+50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x
30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine
where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For
percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes
