“WE DO MORE SO YOU KNOW MORE”

The Gold Standard in Bull EvaluationSetting the industry standard for evaluated bulls, the MCA/MSU Bull Evaluation Program follows the most current Guidelines for Uniform Beef Improvement Programs published by the Beef Improvement Federation (BIF). The BIF standardizes data collection and reporting methods, and creates greater awareness, acceptance, and usage of beef cattle performance information. The membersihip of BIF consists of progressive cattle producers; provincial, state and national beef cattle improvement associations; breed associations; and AI organizations.

Evaluation DietFollowing BIF guidelines, the official evaluation period is conducted for 112 days and the nutritional program is carefully designed to provide levels of protein and energy to allow for expression of genetic differences in lean growth among bulls. The evaluation period diet was balanced to contain 48% corn silage, 32% corn, 10% hay, and 10% supplement on a dry matter (DM) basis. Average nutrient content on a DM-basis was 11.2% crude protein and 0.53 Mcal NEg/lb. Also, in accordance with BIF guidelines, bulls are given an increased percentage of dietary forage for 4 weeks post-evaluation, along with daily exercise, to further prepare them for the breeding season and optimize reproductive performance. Only Bulls Passing Our Rigid Qualifications Sell• All bulls tested negative for BVD-PI and bTB.• All bulls are non-carriers of lethal genetic defects,

as identified by their breed association pedigree or confirmed by genetic testing, for which there is a DNA test available. These defects include: Arthrogryposis Multiplex (AM), Neuropathic Hydrocephalus (NH), Contractural Arachnodactyly (CA), Osteopetrosis (OS), Tibial Hemimelia (TH), and Pulmonary Hypoplasia with Anasarca (PHA).

• Bulls were measured using ultrasound for rump fat, rib fat, ribeye area, and intramuscular fat.

• All sale bulls have passed disposition and structural soundness qualifications.

• All sale bulls achieved a minimum average daily gain of 2.8 lb during the 112-day evaluation.

• All sale bulls passed breeding soundness requirements (see BREEDING SOUNDNESS EXAMINATION section).

How to Read This CatalogEach bull in the sale passed rigid evaluation criteria and has a record like that below. This is what we mean when we say, “we do more, so you know more”.

EPDs and percentiles are current as of March 1, 2015. The percentile rank is the top percentile ranking of that EPD within the bull’s respective breed (i.e. 20% = top 20% of breed). Many bulls have had DNA analysis (PF50 [Zoetis]; Igenity [Neogen]) performed to further increase the reliability of their EPDs.

Evaluation Index and Sale Order The evaluation index is the average of percentile rank for six EPD values (calving ease direct, weaning weight, yearling weight, maternal milk, marbling, and ribeye area), evaluation ADG and WDA (which are calculated independently for Senior and Junior bulls). Lower values indicate a more desireable average percentile ranking, (except that milk is given no advantage when less than the 20th percentile). Sale order is determined by evaluation index, with the lowest indexing bull selling first. A listing test index (sale order) is located in the back of this catalog.
