$Feeder Developed to compare how bulls will impact profitability in the post-weaning

$Profit Developed for operations that raise their own replacements and retains owner- ship on steers and cull heifers, which are marketed on a Quality Based Grid. $Profit assumes a bull will sire 100 progeny over his useful lifespan. $Profit Combines all the traits that comprise both $Ranch and $Feeder to yield one number that predicts Ranch- • Bull A has a $Profit of $15,000 • Bull B has a $Profit of $10,000 = We would expect Bull "A" to pro- duce an additonal $5000 of profit to the ranch over his service life ($50 per calf x 100 calves) when com- pared to Bull "B". Multi-generational use of $Profit will move both $Ranch and $Feeder in a positive direction, just not as fast as the singular use of $Ranch of $Feeder. ers' Bottom Lines. $Profit Example:

$Ranch Developed for cow/calf producers who retain their own replacements and market 100% of the steer calves and cull heifers after weaning. Traits included in $Ranch : Fertility, Milk, Weaning Growth, Cow Herd Feed Intake and Mature Cow Size $Ranch Example: = We would expect Bull "A" to produce $40 per head increased profit when compared to bull "B" in a cow/calf operation that raised their own replacements and sold all other calves at weaning. • Bull A has a $Ranch of $80 • Bull B has a $Ranch of $40 Multi-generational use of $Ranch will ul- timately result in: moderation in mature cow size, improved fertility, modest gains in weaning weight, improved stocking rates and ultimately - increased pounds of calf harvested per unit of feed/land resource.

phase (weaning to harvest). Traits included in $Feeder :

Feed Intake, Post-Weaning Gain, Carcass Weight, Quality Grade (Marbling), Yield Grade $Feeder Example: = We would expect calves sired by Bull "B" to earn $50 per head increaded profit between weaning and harvest when compared to calves sired by bull "A". • Bull A has a $Feeder of $100 • Bull B has a $Feeder of $150 Use of $Feeder in sire selection will maximize Feedlot Closeouts, but with no regard for the cow herd. Thus $Feeder should be used by herds that purchase their replacement females.
