Japanese Cow<br />

Michifuku<br />

Michifuku is thought to be the best<br />

carcass bull ever to leave Japan. Even with<br />

smaller framed offspring, his progeny’s<br />

carcass characteristics are superb.<br />

Michifuku was formerly the number<br />

one marbling bull in the U.S. Wagyu Sire<br />

Summary, and consistently ranks second<br />

in ribeye area (REA) and fourth in<br />

backfat thickness (EPD).<br />

Michifuku’s sire, Monjiro 11550, is linebred<br />

to Tajima J105, great-grandsire of Yasumi<br />

Doi J10328. Michifuku’s dam, Michiko<br />

J655635, was sired by Tanishige 1526 and<br />

grandsired by Yasutanidoi J472. Yasumi Doi<br />

J10328 and Yasutanidoi J472 are considered<br />

to be two of the most famous of the Tajima/<br />

Tajiri line.<br />

Yasumi Doi J10328 sired Yasutanidoi<br />

J472, as well as Dai 2 Yasutsuru 774, sire<br />

of Fukutsuru 068. Yasumi Doi J10328 also<br />

grandsired Yasufuku 930, sire of Yasufuku<br />

Jr. and grandsire of Takazakura. Yasumi<br />

Doi J10328 appears twice in Michifuku’s<br />

pedigree. This lineage supports Michifuku’s<br />

high standing in the U.S. Wagyu Sire<br />

Summary.<br />

According to World K’s Group data on<br />

Michifuku’s progeny in Australia:<br />

12,000 F1 calves were fed 540 days<br />

[ADG = 2.31 lbs].<br />

85 percent graded 9+ on the Australian<br />

scale [grading above 12.9 on a numerical<br />

scale, which is three full grades above the<br />

highest USDA grade of Prime].<br />

15 percent graded 7-9, on a numerical<br />

marbling scale 10-12.9. [On the USDA<br />

scale, numbers 7-9 would be considered<br />

Prime+ and Prime++.]<br />

Descendants of Monjiro 11550 produced<br />

carcasses that sold at auction for $16,000,<br />

$18,000 and $21,000 at the 2007 All-Japan<br />

Wagyu Competition.<br />
