INVESTMENT THROUGH

OUR GENETICS

Great carcase weights – not a big

cow, but it is weight that pays the

bills.

Whilst the maternal traits are generally good in

our breed, weight of carcase is lacking, that as

well as retail beef yield. We need animals to kill

up to 60% of their weight, not at 55% which is

most common at present. With more efficient

animals we can increase our production

without increasing cattle numbers – a big tick

for the environment.

Many breeders have fallen into the trap of

selecting for growth whilst forgetting the cow.

They have inadvertently bred animals that can

be considered terminal type sires. In other

words, they have high growth, high carcase

weight and high mature cow weight. We

search the USA and Australia for bulls because

they have many more Angus cattle than New

Zealand do, giving us far greater selection

opportunities.

At Kakahu we are constantly seeking out

antagonistic traits. We are looking for bulls

with high carcase weights and low mature cow

weight. i.e. The Mature Cow Weight as near as

possible to the 400 Day Weight, and carcase

weight near to the Mature Cow Weight. Those

bulls are not always easy to find, but they are

out there and the answer to our breeding

program. A big cow is NOT what we want.

They cost more to feed and do not cope with

high country conditions the way the more

moderate cow does.

The McLay Institute in USA has found there

is a correlation between big cows and lack

of longevity. We still want them to grow fast,

but not end up as big cows. Unless you find

the bulls with antagonistic traits you will get

High growth, high carcase and then big cows.

At Kakahu we have been weighing our cows

at weaning for many years, as well as body

scoring them as is recommended by ABRI. A

recent walk through our first calving heifers

pleased me enormously. They are nearly as big

as the line a year older. The latter have grown

to an optimum size and stopped.

Add eating quality to the mix. If we want the

discerning markets to buy our meat, we must

improve the consistency or out meat. Mark

Mitchell of Broadleaf who imports Angus Pure

Reserve into USA tells us ‘marbling, marbling,

marbling! I can sell the beef much more easily

when it’s marbled’.

We have always selected for traits overall, and

there are bulls that suit our criteria, bulls with

calving ease, maternal traits of low birth and

gestation length together with low mature cow

weights and great carcase, with marbling, and

of course good structure.

EBVs don’t lie. By listening to them you can

track a path which has long time gains of

environmental sustainability and profitable

cattle that have longevity.

Breeding is like building a brick wall. Start

with a solid foundation and add to that wall

brick by brick. The foundation of Kakahu is the

cow herd. You will see in our catalogue dams

with as many as their 12th calf in the sale. Our

progress has been steady though out the

whole spectrum. Annually we inspect every

cow for structure and temperament relying on

Bill Austin, as an expert, for his advice.

With the onslaught of Covid-19 virus we are

all wondering when the world will recover

and indeed what it will look like in the future.

Fortunately for New Zealand, people need to

eat, and farmers have the tools to continue to

feed many people efficiently.

It is our job to keep breeding for efficiency,

breeding for quality whilst protecting our

farms for future generations.

KAKAHU HAS NOW JOINED

LEACHMAN $PROFIT® PROGRAMME

ONE NUMBER THAT PREDICTS YOUR BOTTOM LINE!

Kakahu is using the Leachman $Profit® to further improve the

profitability and future breeding programmes for us and our clients.

This is as bigger step than when the game changing EBV’s came in!

We will explain what this means for you.

$PROFIT® IS MADE UP OF $RANCH + $FEEDER

$RANCH =

Profit from birth through to weaning.

INCLUDES: Fertility, Milk, Growth,

Cow feed intake and mature cow size

$FEEDER =

$ INDEXES

$PROFIT®

FEED EFFICIENCY EXPLAINED

GOOD BETTER BEST

% Rank: Average Top 25% Top 1%

Feed:Gain -0.01 -0.09 -0.30

Intake 19 -5 -66

FEED:GAIN:

Difference in the amount of feed a bull’s

progeny will consume to produce one kg of

gain. Example: A -0.50 F:G EBV means this

animal’s progeny will consume 1/2 kg less feed

per kg of gain than would progeny of a 0.00 F:G

EBV sire.

FEED INTAKE:

Difference in feed consumption of each of

a bull’s progeny in a 112 day feeding period.

Example: A steer whose sire has a -100 Intake

EBV will eat 100 kgs less feed in 112 days than

one whose sire had a zero Intake EBV.

HOW $PROFIT® WORKS

$Profit® assumes that the average commercial bull will have

100 progeny over its lifetime. The model assumes that you

keep 30% of your heifers as replacements and that you retain

ownership on the remainder of the calves through finishing and

sell on a grid. We realize that many don’t retain ownership, but

doesn’t it make the most sense to select from birth all the way

to slaughter? Feedlots have already proven their willingness to

pay premiums for superior Leachman sired calves.

Our simulation model then factors in all of the effects on both

income and expense to come up with a net profit figure for

each bull. $Profit® allows you to compare any two bulls and

calculate the difference in profit that they are expected to

generate in your herd. Let’s compare a $10,000 $Profit® bull to

$6,000 $Profit® bull (the average 2008 born Angus bull). The

predicted difference between the bulls is $4,000 or about $40

per calf. $Profit® works for us and it will work for you too.

WHAT TRAITS ARE

INCLUDED IN $PROFIT®

$Profit® includes nearly every trait that impacts profitability.

The effect of most traits on profit is fairly simple to

understand. Here is the list of what is included and its effect:

REVENUE TRAITS

• Calving ease = more calves

• Weaning and Yearling EBV = more weight

• Fertility (days to conception) = more weight and

more calves

• Carcass weight = worth more up to 476kg

• Marbling = valued based on grid premiums

• Ribeye area = value as impacts yield grade

• % Retail Product = more yield is more meat

COST TRAITS

• Cow mature size = in general bigger eats more

• Cow intake = more intake costs more

• Feedlot feed efficiency = cost of gain

Some traits are not so easily characterized for $Profit®. Milk,

for example, is a good thing until you get too much. When

over +25, milk EBV has a more negative effect on fertility

than it has a positive effect on weaning weight. There are a

few traits not yet included in $Profit®: longevity, structure,

and disposition.

These traits are important but difficult to express in dollars.

$PROFIT® TERMS

ACCURACY

The sire's level of accuracy is determined by the number of

progeny that have been evaluated in the Leachman System.

• Several progeny recorded, use with confidence (over 90%

accurate).

• Pedigree and individual data only (about 30% accurate).

CALVING EASE

The predicted calving ease if you use the bull on heifers.

The easiest calving bulls in the industry.

• Use on smaller heifers with minimal assistance needed.

• Use on larger heifers with some assistance expected.

(If no stars are shown, the animal is recommended for use

on cows only.)

GROWTH:

A formula combines WW and YW to predict how much

performance the sire will pass on to their progeny. Most growth.

MATERNAL

An estimate of the maternal efficiency of the daughters

this sire will produce. It includes cow size, milk, fertility and

growth.

Keep these heifers! They will make the most profitable

females in the business.

FEED/CARC

A formula that combines: gain, conversion, carcass weight

and carcass merit to predict post weaning performance.

Maximum overall value in your feeder calves.

DISPOSITION

An observation of the sires disposition.

• You can walk up to and touch.

• Average - respects flight zones and handles well, but is

not a pet.

• Nervous.

“PURE NEW ZEALAND GREEN, AND BLACK. THOSE

AMERICANS LIKE A GOOD STORY - WE CAN GIVE

THEM ONE “

I

n the early 1990s Gerald Hargreaves from

Kakahu Stud went to the United States,

and came back inspired to use US Angus

genetics to improve his bloodlines. Gerald’s

father, Kenneth, started the stud on the

family farm in 1954. Gerald and his wife Sue

took it over, got involved with AngusPure, and

now their son, Tom and his wife Anna manage

the stud and the commercial farm.

Today, meat from New Zealand farmers who

have used Kakahu bulls is being bought in US

supermarket chains, restaurants and wholesale

meat distributors in preference to their own

country’s beef supplies, which shows the value

this represents.

Simon Luoni, a livestock agent for the past 43

years, currently working for PGG Wrightson

based out of the Taihape/Raetihi district,

commonly known as the Waimarino, has

worked with a range of farmer clients and large

farming enterprises. For the past 23 years he

has sourced sire bulls from the Bay of Islands

in the far north to near Geraldine in the south,

where the Kakahu Angus Stud is found.

Simon obtains the bull catalogues from various

Angus studs and studies all the genetic worth,

identifying the bulls that suit the AngusPure

programme.If there are enough bulls to pick

from, based on the genetic guidelines and

structural soundness, he then goes, with his

farmer clients, to the sales to buy the bulls that

meet the criteria, and of course, the budget.

“We work as a team,” he says. “The farmer or

manager will pick the bulls based on what they

want to achieve within their operation. These

clients have the knowledge of what bulls suit

their country, whether it ranges from steep hill

country or undulating flat country, and I help

them firm up their decisions.

Kakahu definitely ticks a lot of the boxes we

look for. Their bulls have got the structure

and docility we want, and their genetic values

improve every year. I can see the difference in

their offspring.

He is also involved in the AngusPure

Special Reserve programme, which is run in

association with Wilson Hellaby, and Broadleaf

in the US, making sure the bulls purchased will

fulfil the criteria that meet the requirements

wanted in this programme.

50


“FOR NZ BEEF TO BE

COMPETITIVE IN THE

US MARKET, WE NEED

TO ENSURE THAT OUR

LABELLING IS IMPROVED

WITH BOTH TRACEABILITY

AND MARBLE SCORING

INFORMATION CLEARLY

DEPICTED ON THE LABEL.

OUR BEEF ALSO SHOULD

BE PROMOTED AS “PURE

ANGUS”, RAISED FROM THE

MOUNTAINS TO SEA.


51

“There are 89 Angus studs associated with

AngusPure, and Kakahu Angus is a stud that

we attend to purchase bulls that fit our criteria.

The progeny, whether they are steers or heifers,

are fattened. When ready they are sent to

Wilson Hellaby where they are slaughtered,

then processed for export to the US under the

AngusPure Special Reserve brand.”

Guy Sargent from AngusPure approached

Simon three years ago about supplying

AngusPure into the US. It is now big business,

dealing with 80 cattle per fortnight. Last July,

Simon visited the US and saw for himself how

the programme was progressing there. He

and an AngusPure representative visited a

number of meat distributors and supermarkets

in Los Angeles to see what they need to do to

be competitive in that market. Simon spoke

to a number of housewives in a supermarket

and they gave him an idea of what they were

hunting for. They were picking up packets

of meat and putting them back down and

moving along - the reason for that is that they

were unable to read the writing on the labels

and really wanted to know the origin and also

the purity of the meat. They were also very

interested in the tenderness of the meat from

the marbling (which is indicated on the meat

label in the US). In the supermarket there was

a lot of American beef labelled “grass fed”.

Simon reckons we need to be more precise

with marketing our beef in regard to traceability,

purity and origin.

A lot of Americans, though, just eat hamburger,

so they are exporting quality mince to make

beautiful AngusPure patties, right through to

the high end steaks. It seemed to Simon that

the discerning buyer preferred grass fed beef

over grain fed beef.

need to make it more attractive and a more

desirable product than their own. There are

too many lower end products out there at

the moment so it’s important we promote its

quality.

“It is imperative we promote this product in New

Zealand. Angus Pure is already in the high end

restaurants in the US and we need to continue

to promote it locally within our regions. Much of

our top quality meat goes overseas, we need to

find a way to be able to offer it on a wider basis

to households in New Zealand.”

The company is looking at selling AngusPure

meat packs online to consumers here. The

traceability would be on the box so customers

can Google the origins of the meat they’ve

purchased. If all 89 partners got involved

this would crank up the quality of the home

delivery. Simon reckons that New Zealanders

want this information as consumers are now

more interested than ever in what they are

purchasing and where the meat they consume

is coming from. Lesser cuts can be marketed

into top end meat patties, sausages and pies.

There is massive opportunity in extending the

AngusPure family of protein.

When Simon Luoni started his working life in

agriculture, some astute older farmers showed

him what good livestock looked like and how to

draft. They were the pioneers in the business.

Simon now tries to relay what he has learnt

over the years to the younger agents coming

through.

“Pure New Zealand Green, and Black. Those

Americans like a good story - we can give them

one “

“WE WORK AS A TEAM,” HE SAYS.

“THE FARMER OR MANAGER WILL

PICK THE BULLS BASED ON WHAT

THEY WANT TO ACHIEVE WITHIN

THEIR OPERATION. THESE CLIENTS

HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT

BULLS SUIT THEIR COUNTRY,

WHETHER IT RANGES FROM STEEP

HILL COUNTRY OR UNDULATING

FLAT COUNTRY, AND I HELP THEM

FIRM UP THEIR DECISIONS.

“For NZ beef to be competitive in the US

market, we need to ensure that our labelling

is improved with both traceability and marble

KAKAHU HAS HAD A PROGRAMME TO ERADICATE BVD SINCE 1998

BVD (BOVINE VIRAL DIARRHOEA)

- All young stock is vaccinated twice as advised by our vets.

- Cows are vaccinated annually.

- SALE BULLS ARE BLOOD TESTED ANNUALLY FOR CARRIERS.

- When a bull arrives at his new home he is BVD free.

- The purchaser should be aware that THE BULL WILL NEED A VACCINATION EVERY YEAR TO KEEP HIM CLEAR,

as the bull can catch BVD from a carrier cow in the herd and transmit it to the other cows. This will happen only if

the vaccination is lapsed.

Downloaded from www.controlBvd.org.nz “The BVD virus remains in the herd by two methods (i) direct transmission between animals through physical

contact and, (ii) virus invading the foetus in a pregnant cow. The latter method gives rise to newborn calves that either develop poorly and die relatively

young or grow up apparently normal but become life-long shedders known as “persistently infected”, or “PI” cattle. These carrier animals act as a major

source of infection for other animals.

All body fluids including saliva, tears, nasal discharge, semen, urine and faeces contain the virus. Generally, close contact with other animals is required

for transmission, but it has been observed that air droplets containing the virus can be transmitted up to 8m and infect cows across the fence. The time

from infection to the development of clinical signs is about 1-3 weeks. Luckily, the virus only survives for a short time in the environment.

EFFECTS IN ADULT CATTLE:

- Reduced conception rates

- Increased numbers of long returns

- Spread out calving pattern

- High non-pregnancy rates

- Abortions; fresh or mummified

- High empty at calving rates

- Calf losses around calving from premature births, weak/

dummy calves.

ANGUS GROUP BREEDPLAN CODE OF PRACTICE

The Angus Group Breedplan COP has been developed to assist in ensuring commercial bull buyers and Angus Semen users

have access to the best information for their breeding and buying decisions. It is offered as a voluntary code of practice and

designed to encourage high standards of on-farm performance recording and to accurately report Angus Group Breedplan

EBVs in advertising and marketing of Angus Cattle.

OSH

Every effort will be taken by the vendors, their staff and assistants, both on the day of the sale as well as on any other visits of inspection, to

ensure the safety of intending buyers and visitors. However we wish to advise that this is a farm run under normal management conditions and

certain dangers exist in relation to livestock and their environment. Visitors should take care to ensure their personal safety.

GENETIC DEFECTS IN ANGUS

ALL BULLS IN THIS CATALOGUE ARE TESTED FREE OR PEDIGREE FREE OF THESE DEFECTS

ARTHROGRYPOSIS MULTIPLEX (AM), NEUROPATHIC HYDROCEPHALUS (NH) & CONTRACTURAL ARACHNODACTYLY (CA)

& DEVELOPMENTAL DUPLICATION (DD). AM, NH and CA are simple recessive gene defects, caused by the presence of a single pair of inherited

genes. The red gene in Angus cattle is a common example of recessive inheritance – the gene must be present on both sides of the pedigree for full

expression. If a carrier sire and a carrier dam are mated, 25% of the progeny will be clear of the defect, 50% will be carriers, and 25% will be affected.

A DNA test has been developed to identify carrier animals so these defects can be eliminated from the breed.

After such DNA testing, you will be given one of two results;

AMF, NHF, CAF or DDC = tested free of the gene

AMC, NHC, CAC or DDC = tested carriers of the defect

But, to assist with the identification of carrier animals (prior to DNA testing) a ‘probability test’ has been developed - using updated test results

and animals’ pedigrees, known as Geneprob. Geneprob will identify ‘at risk’ animals in the breed database and assign them a status for AMS,

NHS or CAS as follows;

AMFU, NHFU, DDFU and/or CAFU = free by pedigree inference, untested

AMS, NHS%, DDS% and/or CAS% = a suspected carrier (% = level of suspicion) but un-tested. Requires testing to validate true status.

These GeneProb analysis tests are performed every seven days. Genotyping for these mutations should, with 100% accuracy, expedite

elimination of these genes from the Angus population. If you are unsure of any aspect of these genetic defects please enquire of your bull

supplier or ring the NZ Angus Association on 06 3234484. R N Wylie, General Manager, Angus New Zealand Inc.

EBVS

EXPLAINED

In the calculation of EBVs, the performance

of individual animals within a contemporary

group is directly compared to the average of

other animals in that group. A contemporary

group consists of animals of the same sex and

age class within a herd, run under the same

management conditions and treated equally.

Indirect comparisons are made between

animals reared in different contemporary

groups, through the use of pedigree links

between the groups.

With the widespread use of artificial breeding

and trading of genetics among seedstock

herds, an extensive network of pedigree

links has been established throughout the

Angus breed. These pedigree links enable

the adjustment for environmental differences

between herds, years and management

groups. This allows comparisons between

animals from totally different environments and

management conditions.

EBVs are expressed in the units of

measurement for each particular trait. They

are shown as +ive or -ive differences from the

breed base. For example, a bull with an EBV

of +50 kg for 600-Day Wt is estimated to have

genetic merit 50 kg above the breed base of 0

kg. Since 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 progress within the breed.

While EBVs provide the best basis for

the comparison of the genetic merit of

animals, reared in different environments

and management conditions, they can at

present only be used to compare animals

within the same breed. The EBVs for different

breeds have different bases and are subject

to different rates of change over time.

Consequently, at present, angus group

breedplan ebvs cannot be validly compared

with ebvs of any other breed.

The absolute value if any EBV is not critical,

but rather the differences in EBVs between

animals. Particular animals should be viewed

as being “above breed average”, for a particular

trait, only if their EBVs are better than the

average EBVs of all animals born in their year

drop. A useful “benchmark” is the average

EBVs for calves born in 2006 (i.e. “V” drop),

shown below.

EBVs are published for a range of traits

covering fertility, calving ease, maternal

performance, growth and carcase merit.

When using EBVs to assist in selection

decisions, it is important to achieve a balance

between the different groups of traits and

to place emphasis on those traits that are

important to your herd, your markets, and your

environment. One of the advantages of having

a comprehensive range of EBVs is that you can

avoid extremes, in particular traits and select

for animals with balanced overall performance.

CALVING EASE TRAITS

Calving ease is an important economic trait because of its impact on

calf and heifer mortality, labour and veterinary expenses at calving

time, and subsequent re-breeding performance of heifers. EBVs for

calving ease are calculated from calving ease scores, birth weight

data and gestation length information provided by breeders. Due to

the many non-genetic influences on calving ease, the trait has a low

heritability. Usually only proven bulls or cows, with several progeny

recorded, have EBVs for calving ease with sufficient accuracy to be

reported. Two Calving Ease EBVs are provided – Calving Ease (DIR)

and Calving Ease (DTRS).

GESTATION LENGTH (GL) EBVS

Gestation Length EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among

animals in the number of days from the date of conception until the

calf birth date.


These EBVs are calculated from the joining and birth date records

for AI calves. The analysis accounts for differences in the “maternal”

effect of dams on the gestation length. Shorter gestation lengths

are usually associated with lighter birth weights, easier calving and

improved cow re-breeding performance. Calves born with a shorter

gestation length are often heavier at weaning, due to more days of

growth, compared to their contemporaries.

Lower, or more -ive, Gestation Length EBVs are generally more

favourable. For example, a bull with an EBV of –2.0 days would be

expected to produce calves that are born earlier, with easier calving,

than a bull with an EBV of +2.0 days.

CALVING EASE (DIR) EBVS

Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among

animals in the ability of their calves from 2 year old heifers to be born

unassisted. The EBVs are reported as differences in the percentage

unassisted calvings.

Higher, more +ive, Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are more favourable. For

example, a bull with an EBV of +2.0 % would be expected to produce

fewer difficult calvings from 2 year old heifers than a bull with an EBV

of –2.0 %.

CALVING EASE (DTRS) EBVS

Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among

animals in the ability of their 2 year old daughters to calve without

assistance. The EBVs are reported as differences in the percentage

unassisted calvings.

Higher, more +ive, Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are more favourable. For


2 year old daughters that have fewer calving problems than the

daughters of a bull with an EBV of –2.0 %.

FERTILITY TRAITS

Fertility is a critical component influencing the profitability of a

breeding herd. EBVs are provided for two fertility traits - Days

to Calving and Scrotal Size. These traits contribute important

information to assist in making breeding decisions to maintain herd

fertility. Kakahu puts the number of calves born for the number of

years mated, given that all cows are mated first as yearlings. We do

this for the grand dams as well, to give a general indication of the

fertility of the herd.

DAYS TO CALVING (DC) EBVS

Days to Calving (DC) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among

animals in female fertility, expressed as the number of days from the

start of the joining period until subsequent calving.

Variation in DC records is mainly due to differences in the time taken

for females to conceive after the commencement of the joining period.

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.

DC EBVs for bulls are based on the performance of their daughters

and female relatives. Differences in scrotal size among bulls can also

contribute to variation in DC EBVs.

Lower, or more -ive, Days to Calving EBVs are more favourable. For

example, a bull with an EBV of –3.0 days would be expected to

produce daughters that conceive earlier in the joining period and

subsequently calve earlier, than the daughters of a bull with an EBV of

+3.0 days.

SCROTAL SIZE (SS) EBVS

Scrotal Size EBVs are estimates 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.

Scrotal size also has a favourable relationship with Days to Calving,

such that bulls with larger EBVs tend to have daughters with shorter

Days to Calving intervals.

Larger, or more +ive, Scrotal Size EBVs are more favourable. For

example, a bull with an EBV of +4.0 cm would be expected to produce

sons with larger scrotal size, at yearling age and daughters that reach

puberty earlier, than the progeny of a bull with an EBV of –4.0 cm.

BIRTH WEIGHT (BWT) EBVS

Birth Wt EBVs are estimates 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.

Consequently, birth weight and growth need to be carefully balanced.

Fortunately, animals do exist with moderate

Birth Wt EBVs and above average EBVs for later growth.

Small, or moderate, Birth Wt EBVs are more favourable. For example,

a bull with an EBV of +2.0 kg would be expected to produce lighter

calves at birth than a bull with an EBV of + 6.0 kg, with a lower risk of a

difficult calving, if joined to heifers.


GROWTH TRAITS

EBVs are provided for three growth traits: 200-Day Wt, 400-Day

Wt and 600-Day Wt. In general, higher growth rates will lead

to higher profitability. However, in most situations an optimum

point will be reached where less emphasis should be placed

on further increases in growth. One of the consequences of

continued selection for increased growth EBVs is an associated

increase in body size at all ages, together with increases in herd

feed requirements. Growth EBVs are calculated from weight data

submitted by breeders and adjusted to relevant age classes prior

to analysis.

200-DAY WEIGHT (200) EBVS

200-Day Wt EBVs are estimates 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.

Larger, more +ive, 200-Day Wt EBVs are generally more favourable.

For example, a bull with an EBV of +30 kg would be expected to

produce heavier calves at 200 days of age (or weaning) compared to a

bull with an EBV of +5 kg.



animals in weight at 400 days of age. This is an important trait for

breeders turning off animals as yearlings.



produce heavier calves at 400 days of age, compared to a bull with an

EBV of +30 kg.



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 markets.



produce heavier progeny at 600 days of age than a bull with an EBV

of +40 kg.

MATERNAL TRAITS

EBVs are provided for 2 maternal traits – milk production and

mature cow weight. Differences in calf growth are influenced by a

combination of the genetic potential for growth among the calves

and the genetic differences in maternal ability of their dams.

The differences in maternal ability can largely be attributed to

variation in milk production of the dams. GROUP BREEDPLAN

separates the growth and maternal components of 200-Day Wt

and 400-Day Wt records to produce EBVs for milk production.

A bull’s Milk EBV’s are based on the growth performance of

his daughter’s calves. Mature Cow Weight EBVs provide useful

information to assist breeders in matching cow size to the

environment.

MILK EBVS

Milk EBVs are estimates of the genetic differences among animals in

milk production potential, expressed through variation in calf growth

performance.

A bull with a Milk EBV of +10kg would be expected to sire daughters

with higher milk production than a bull with Milk EBV of +2 kg. This

higher milk production should be reflected through higher weaning

weights among the daughters’ calves. There is a considerable time

lag before a bull obtains a reasonable accuracy for its Milk EBVs, due

to the time taken before growth performance data is available from

his daughters’ calves. If a bull is to be used as a terminal sire, with

no daughters kept as female replacements, then his Milk EBVs can

generally be disregarded.

The optimum level of milk production potential in beef cows is

dependent upon the production system and environment in which

the cows are run. Selection for increased milk production might be

warranted when cows are run under good nutritional conditions and

calves are sold as weaners or vealers. However, not all environments

will support higher milking cows.

Larger, more +ive, OR moderate, 200-Day Milk EBVs can be more

favourable, depending on the environment.

MATURE COW WEIGHT (MWT EBVS)

Mature Cow Weight EBVs are estimates of the genetic differences

among animals in cow weight at 5 years of age.

Mature Cow Weight EBVs for sires are based on weights recorded

on their daughters (following the weaning of their calves), plus

consideration of overseas genetic information and the genetic

relationships known to exist between cow weight and earlier growth

performance.

69

While moderation in cow weight is desirable for reducing herd feed

costs, it is also often associated with lower overall growth potential.

Consequently, mature cow weight and early growth performance need

to be carefully balanced to optimise total herd productivity.

Sires with above average EBVs for 400-Day Wt. or 600-Day Wt. will

also tend to have above average Mature Cow Weight EBVs. However,

following the analysis of weight records on their daughters, some

sires have been identified as having smaller (or larger) mature weights

relative to that predicted from their early growth performance.

Smaller, or moderate Mature Cow Weight EBVs are generally more

favourable. For example, a bull with an EBV of +50kg would be

expected to produce daughters with lighter mature weights and

lower feed requirements than a bull with an EBV of +80kg. that reach

puberty earlier, than the progeny of a bull with an EBV of –4.0 cm.

70

CARCASE TRAITS

Angus GROUP BREEDPLAN carcase EBVs are based on

ultrasound scan data taken on live animals and abattoir carcase

measurements taken on animals following slaughter. EBVs are

calculated for carcase weight, eye muscle area, rib and rump

fat cover, percentage retail beef yield, and intra-muscular fat

percentage (marbling). These EBVs can be used, together with

visual assessment for muscularity and maturity type, to assist in

breeding cattle for specific market requirements.

CARCASE WEIGHT (CWT) EBVS

Carcase weight EBVs are estimates of the genetic differences among

animals in hot standard carcase weight at 650 days of age.

They are calculated from abattoir carcase weight records and known

genetic associations with growth traits. Animals with high 400 and

600 Day Wt EBVs will also tend to have high carcase weight EBVs.

Larger, more +ive, Carcase Weight EBVs are more favourable. For

example, a bull with an EBV of +40kg would be expected to produce

progeny with heavier carcases at 650 days of age than a bull with an

EBV of +20 kg.

EYE MUSCLE AREA (EMA) EBVS

EMA EBVs are estimates of the genetic differences among animals in

eye muscle area (cm2) at the 12/13th rib site on a 400kg carcase. EMA

has a positive relationship with retail beef yield.

Larger, more +ive, EMA EBVs are generally more favourable. For

example, a bull with an EBV of +2.0 cm2 would be expected to

produce progeny with a greater degree of muscle expression and

higher retail beef yield, at any particular carcase weight, than a bull

with an EBV of –2.0 cm2.


RUMP FAT

Rump Fat EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among animals in

fat depth at the P8 rump site on a standard 400kg carcase.

There is a strong positive genetic relationship between rump fat and

rib fat. Animals with extreme (high or low) Rib Fat EBVs also tend to

have extreme Rump Fat EBVs. Differences between Rib and Rump

Fat EBVs for individual animals may indicate differences in carcase fat

distribution.

More positive (+ive), OR more negative (-ive), Rump Fat EBVs may be

more favourable, depending on your breeding goals. For example,

a bull with an EBV of –1.0 mm would be expected to produce leaner,

higher yielding carcases than a bull with an EBV of +1.0 mm.

RETAIL BEEF YEILD % (RBY%) EBVS

RBY% EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among animals in

percentage retail beef yield in a 400kg carcase, with 2-3 mm fat trim,

adjusted to 85% chemical lean. Variation in RBY% EBVs is determined

largely from differences in ultrasound fat and EMA measurements

between animals and a small negative relationship with growth and

carcase weight EBVs.

Larger, more +ive, RBY % Index values are more favourable. For


calves with higher yielding carcases, at any particular carcase weight,

than the calves sired by a bull with an EBV of –1.0 %.

INTRA-MUSCULAR FAT % (IMF%) EBVS

IMF% EBVs are estimates of genetic differences among animals in

percentage intra-muscular fat (marbling) in a 400kg carcase.

RIB FAT (RIB) EBVS

Rib Fat EBVs are estimates of the genetic differences among animals

in fat depth (mm) at the 12/13th rib site, on a 400kg carcase.

Fat depth has a negative relationship with retail beef yield. The use of

Rib Fat EBVs depends on your goals relating to the “finishing ability” of

your animals. Breeders aiming to breed leaner, higher yielding cattle

may select for lower fat EBVs, whilst a breeder aiming to improve the

“finishing ability” of their animals at a young age may choose a bull

with higher fat EBVs, to ensure meeting market demands for fat cover.

Analyses of the Angus database indicate a general tendency for

animals with positive fat EBVs to have shorter days to calving

intervals. Consequently, breeders should be cautious about applying

intense selection for lower Fat EBVs in situations where female

replacements are kept.

For markets where marbling is important (e.g. Japanese B2/B3

market, high quality domestic hotel/restaurant and specialist butcher

trade) differences in IMF% can contribute significantly to carcase

value.

Differences in IMF% EBVs are calculated from information obtained

from overseas genetic evaluations of marbling, together with IMF%

and/or marble score data obtained from animals in structured

progeny test programs. In addition, genetic relationships found to

exist with ultrasound scan fat depth measurements also contribute to

IMF% EBVs.

Depending on your market targets, positive IMF% EBVs may be

more favourable. For example, a bull with an EBV of + 10% would be

expected to produce calves with higher average marble score, at any

particular carcase weight, than a bull with an EBV of -1.0%.

More positive (+ive), OR more negative (-ive), Rib Fat EBVs may be

more favourable, depending on your breeding goals. For example,

a bull with an EBV of –1.0 mm would be expected to produce leaner,

higher yielding carcases than a bull with an EBV of +1.0 mm.


ACCURACIES

The “ACCURACY” associated with an EBV gives an indication of

its reliability and the likely extent of its possible change, as more

information becomes available. EBVs are based on the available

information at the time of the GROUP BREEDPLAN analysis. As more

data becomes available on an animal (or its progeny, or relatives)

the accuracy of its EBVs, for particular traits, will increase. For

example, a bull at two years of age might have EBVs based on his

own performance and the performance of his siblings, parents and

other relatives. As the bull is used and his progeny recorded, more

information is available about his likely genetic merit. As a result, his

EBVs may change and the accuracies will increase.

Accuracies are influenced by the heritabilities 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 true estimate of the animal’s

genetic merit and the less likelihood that the EBV will change as

more information becomes available. Even though an EBV with a low

accuracy may change in the future, it is still the best estimate of an

animal’s genetic merit for that trait. Generally, as more information

becomes available, an EBV is just as likely to increase in value as it

is to decrease. Where an individual performance record is available

on an animal, for a particular trait, then its EBV for that trait must

have an accuracy of at least 50% before it will be reported. Where no

individual performance is available, the EBV must have an accuracy of

at least 50% for growth and carcase traits, and at least 35% for calving

ease, milk and days to calving EBVs, to be reported.

The maximum likely change to EBVs, at different accuracy levels, is

indicated by the standard error associated with different accuracies.

The size of the standard errors decrease as the accuracies increase.

Statistically, there is a 66% chance that an animals true breeding value

will be within 1 standard error of its EBV, and a 96% chance that it will

be within 2 standard errors of its EBV. Table 1 shows the confidence

ranges associated with different accuracy levels for various traits.

For example, a 400-Day Wt. EBV with an accuracy of 90% will have

a standard error of ± 7 kg. If an animal’s EBV is +30kg then, with the

addition of further information (e.g. progeny or sibling records), the

EBV would be expected to still fall within the range of +23 kg to +37 kg

(i.e. 30 7 kg) 67% of the time; and, within the range of +16 kg to +44 kg

(i.e. 30 14 kg) 96% of the time.

71

INDEXES

There are currently two different selection indexes calculated for

new zealand angus animals. These are: SELF REPLACING INDEX

& ANGUSPURE INDEX. Each selection index describes a different

production/market scenario and relates to a typical commercial herd

in New Zealand that is targeting the following specifications.

ANGUSPURE INDEX (AP)

Estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability

per cow joined for an example commercial herd (self replacing herd

run in a temperate environment) in which some females retained for

breeding and surplus females, along with all males, are slaughtered.

Steers are assumed marketed at 565 kg live weight (280 kg carcase

weight and 100 mm fat depth) at 20 months of age with a significant

premium paid for marbling.

SELF REPLACING INDEX (SRI)

Estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability

per cow joined for an example commercial herd (self replacing herd

run in a temperate environment) in which some females retained for

breeding and surplus females, along with all males, are slaughtered.

Steers are assumed marketed at 525 kg live weight (280 kg carcase

weight and 10 mm fat depth) at 16 months of age.

The main drivers of profit addressed by the Index include (in order of

economic importance):

• DIRECT AND MATERNAL CALVING EASE

• GROWTH

• MEAT YIELD

• COW SURVIVAL

• FINISHING ABILITY

• FERTILITY

• COW EFFICIENCY

In short, selection on the Index is expected to favour production of a

cowherd with excellent reproductive efficiency, rearing progeny with

moderate-to-high growth rates and high yielding carcasses.

HERITABILITIES OF TRAITS IN

ANGUS GROUP TACE

(TRANSTASMAN ANGUS CATTLE EVALUATION)

Only part of the variation that we observe among animals is due to genetic differences. The majority of the variation is generally due to non-genetic

factors such as differences in environment and nutrition.

The degree to which genetic differences influence performance varies from trait to trait. This is explained by differences in the “heritability” of the

traits.

Growth and carcase traits tend to have moderate to high heritabilities (i.e. 20 to 60%), whilst maternal traits have low heritabilities (10% or lower).

Angus TACE takes into account the different degrees of heritability of various traits, and the known genetic relationships between the traits.

TRANSTASMAN CATTLE EVALUATION

(TACE) EXPLAINED

TransTasman Cattle Evaluation is a modern genetic

evaluation programme for beef cattle breeders. It compares

cattle on the basis of their breeding values.

TransTasman Cattle Evaluation (TACE) is formerly known as BreedPlan.

TACE provides predictions of the genetic merit of individual animals

called Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). These EBVs are used by

Angus breeders and bull buyers to assist in selection decisions

and purchase of breeding stock. EBVs are now accepted by most

beef producers as an essential tool in the breeding and marketing

of seedstock.

EBVs are based on all available pedigree and performance records

provided by breeders in New Zealand and Australia, along with

available overseas genetic information. EBVs provide the best means

for comparison of the relative genetic merit of animals across the

breed for those traits included in the analysis. EBVs obviously cannot

be used in isolation in any selection or purchase decision. Visual

assessment is still necessary for those characteristics not adequately

described by EBVs.

GROUP TACE EBVs have been proven to be more accurate than

raw performance measurements for assisting in the selection of

breeding stock. Research results and industry experience has shown

that that more rapid genetic gains can be achieved in herds which

make use of EBVs in their selection decisions. In the calculation of

EBVs all available pedigree and performance information on each

animal and its relatives (parents, ancestors, siblings, progeny, etc.) is

combined to provide a single best estimate of an individual’s genetic

merit for each trait. In addition, allowance is made for environmental

differences between properties, seasons and management groups on

each animal’s performance. Differences in heritabilities between traits

and genetic associations between traits are also accounted for in the

calculation of EBVs.

The service is run by the Agricultural Business Research Institute

(ABRI) at the University of New England, Armidale, NSW., Australia.

TACE research and development is carried out by the Animal Genetics

and Breeding Unit (AGBU), also at the University of New England.

AN OVERVIEW OF TACE.

What you see in an animal is the effect of genes they inherit from their

parents modified by the effect of non-genetic (environmental) factors

such as feeding and parasite control, sex, age of dam etc.

To improve your herd by selection, you need to evaluate the genetic

merit of cattle – that is the proportion of the animals performance

which is controlled by its genes, and not its overall performance which

has been influenced by environmental and other non-genetic effects.

Early approaches to performance recording used the ratio system.

The animals performance was corrected for sex, age of calf and age of

dam, and then compared as a percentage to other animals within the

same management group. Comparison of animals across management

groups, herds or years was not possible using this system.

TACE represents a major improvement over the more traditional

methods of performance recording. It uses all the records available on

the animal and its relatives to disentangle genetic and environmental

factors, giving the best estimate of the animals breeding value that is

possible from the available information.

To allow comparison of animals from between management groups or

even different properties genetic links between contemporary groups

are essential. A genetic link is achieved where animals in one group/

herd have a parent in common with an animals in another group/herd.

For sires, this cross linkage is usually achieved through AI but could

also be through common dams.

TACE uses “multiple trait” evaluation which further increases the

accuracy of the EBVs

Because there is usually a genetic association between different traits

(which may be positive or negative and vary from weak to strong) this

information can be used enhance measurements of recorded traits

or estimate an animal’s breeding value for traits that have not been

directly measured.

For example, 200 day weight has a positive association with 400 day

weight – that is, as 200 day weight increases so does 400 day weight.

The multiple trait analysis also helps to reduce the “bias” which can

be introduced by a previous selection decision, say selective joining

or dis-proportional culling. For example, culling of lighter calves at

weaning will give higher group average 400 day weight. The fact that

the remaining animals have a higher group average as a result of

previous culling is accounted for in TACE as long as the records of the

previously culled animals are included in the evaluation.

EBVs are expressed in the same units as they were measured (eg, kg)

and are estimated relative to the breed benchmark of zero, which was

established at the time of the first analysis.

WHAT DOES TACE DO?

TACE adjusts field measurements (raw data) submitted by the breeder

to calculate an estimate of the animals breeding value (EBV). It uses

information from the performance of the individual animal as well as

its relatives, and allows for differences in environment and chance

that animals have been exposed to and that would otherwise bias our

selection decisions.

It provides the best estimate of an animal’s breeding value from the

information available.

TACE is a useful aid to selection, not because you are a poor judge

of cattle but because when it comes to long term memory recall or

making simultaneous adjustments for known environmental effects

over a number of traits, human brain power is no match for a computer.

WHY USE TACE TO ANALYSE PERFORMANCE

RECORDS?

What we see or measure in an animal is influenced by both

environmental and genetic factors.

Environmental factors influence the way an animal may look or

perform within a given environment but not the way his progeny

will look or perform within a different environment. Environmental

influences include nutrition (differences between paddocks or

properties, supplementary feeding, or trace mineral capsules),

management such as castration and drenching, grooming and

clipping, gut-fill, ill-health, and parasites.

Observed differences of performance between animals resulting from

differences in environment can be large, but are not inherited by their

progeny, and as such can lead our selection decision astray.

Genetic factors are the result of genes inherited from the parents

and are the blueprint for future performance, both of the individual

and its progeny.

You buy a bull not for what he looks like but how his progeny will

perform. It is only when environment factors are either standardised

or adjusted for that real genetic differences become apparent.

TACE uses sophisticated computing technology to adjust for known

environmental effects over a number of selection traits.

WHAT ARE THE KEY FEATURES OF THE TACE

ANALYSIS?

KEY FEATURES OF TACE INCLUDE:

• Calculating breeding values for all animals and all traits

simultaneously, hence its description as a “Multiple Trait

Animal Model”.

• Using performance information from relatives and progeny, as

well as the individual animal.

• Using the known correlation between traits to increase the

accuracy of measured traits and to calculate EBVs for nonmeasured

traits such as birth weight or weight at later ages.

• The use of “country of origin” performance information of

imported (introduced) animals.

• Adjusting for the effects of differences of nutrition, age of dam,

age of calf and management group treatments. These are nongenetic

differences that will affect the observed performance of

the individual but are not passed onto its progeny.

• Adjusting for the effects of preferential mating of a sire to

selected cows, unequal and selective culling, and competition

between comparison groups.

Removing these biases and taking into account the performance

of other animals makes TACE predictions more accurate than

predictions on visual assessment.

As well as giving you EBVs for your animals, TACE also plots the

genetic trend for your herd. This trend shows you the genetic

direction of your herd for individual traits from year to year, and also

lets you see the effect of environmental changes such as pasture

improvement on your overall herd production.

Over 8600 cow matings, 300 bulls and 7000 calves don't lie.

The B+LNZ Genetics Beef Progeny Test now has five seasons of calves

on the ground - running on large-scale commercial properties.

Here's an example of EBVs working:

This bull's calves will be up to 10kg* heavier than this bull's calves at 200 days old.

EBVs work - use them to make more money.

visit morebullforyourbuck.co.nz

ICS

• The bull contributes half of a calf's genetics, so half of 60kg and 40kg = 30kg and 20kg, respectively.

200 day EBVs are proving to be 90% accurate in the B+LNZ Genetics beef progeny test, so 90% of 10kg = 9kg.
