Our society is numerical small but consists of enthusiastic breeders who have gone to great lengths to improve and develop the breed over the last 28 years. It has been well documented that lamb output is the greatest contributor to farm profitability. Belclare sired ewes deliver on average an additional 20 lambs for every 100 ewes mated. This extra output is achieved with very little additional cost as the greatest costs on a sheep farm are associated with maintain the ewe flock. Belclare ewes are good milkers and this has been clearly demonstrated by farmers who have mated ewe lambs in their first year and found that Belclare sired ewe lambs have no problems rearing twin lambs, where terminal sired ewe lambs often require the removal of one of the lambs to ensure adequate milk is supplied to the remaining lambs. In addition Belclare sired ewes are easily lambed, have excellent resistance to diseases such as footrot, stomach worms and mastitis and are of a moderated body size and are therefore easily maintained. The past 18 months have been difficult for sheep farmers, as costs for most inputs have increased dramatically and adverse weather has hampered grass growth. Hopefully this summer will be better and that lamb prices will hold up for the sheep producers who are committed to the industry. I would like to draw your attention to our list of sale dates which are published on the back page of this yearbook. Over 3,000 sheep farmers are participating in the new Sheep Technology Adoption Programme (STAP) and all of these will be required to use a ram that has been evaluated under the Sheep Ireland Lamb Plus Programme and achieve a minimum of 3 stars under any one of the three indices. The Belclare Sheep Society have been recording all of the sheep in the breed since our foundation in 1985 and we were also the first breed society to transfer all our pedigree information and flock book to sheep Ireland in 2009. This means that all Pedigree Registered Belclare sheep are recorded in the lamb plus programme and all the sheep at all of our society sales have Euro Star information provided, giving sheep farmers the information that they need to make an informed choice. I hope you enjoy reading this yearbook and that you find the information contained in it useful. If you have any questions on any issue surrounding Belclare Sheep feel free to contact any of our members or contact our Secretary Michael Neenan, whose contact details are contained in this yearbook.

Enquiries & Visitors always welcome Michael Gottstein Coolkellure House, Coolkellure, Dunmanway, Co. Cork tel.: 087-2399755 Sheep Ireland The number of Pedigree Belclare breeders remains very steady and it is great that all of these breeders are actively participating in Sheep Irelands breed improvement programme. Full participation by the breed society in this programme allows us to maximise the genetic advancement of the breed. It also allows Sheep Ireland to carry out useful analysis of data recorded by the breed annually. One such example of this is Inbreeding analysis, which can help breeders identify potential risks and avoid problems. Sheep Technology Adoption Programme (STAP) The launch of STAP by the Department of Agriculture earlier this year, will provide all performance recording breeders with a fantastic opportunity. A compulsory element of the scheme requires participating STAP farmers to use a LambPlus recorded ram in their flock. These

  • Ireland's Rare Breeds
    IRELAND’S RARE BREEDS A CASE STUDY Ireland’s Rare Breeds What are Rare Breeds? Rare breeds are a breed of livestock or poultry that have a very small breeding population left. Due to their small population numbers, the conservation status of the rare breed can be identified as high. Organisations have been/ are set up devoted to the conservation of these rare breeds, protecting and promoting the breed to help save it from extinction. Some indigenous, native or rare breeds associated to old Ireland are: Equines (Horses), such as the Connemara Pony, the Kerry Bog Pony and the Irish Draught; Bovines (Cattle), such as the Irish Moiled cattle, Kerry Cattle and Dexters; Ovines (Sheep), such as the Galway Sheep. How do these breeds become rare? After the war Ireland’s farmers sought to become more efficient in their farming practices. New breeds were introduced at the expense of Irish indigenous (native) stock. Farmers became aware that with the introduction of more profitable/ efficient breeds – e.g. the Holstein-Friesian – that native breeds such as the Irish Moiled became undisputedly viewed as a highly unprofitable breed in comparison to the high milk yield of the Holstein-Friesian. The introduction of ‘selective breeding’ during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries improved the genetic characteristics of animals, such as their weight, milk yield, leanness and speed of maturity in order to improve profit. As a result of this, many Irish breeds became extinct and only a few native breeds remain today. Animal breeds that were native to old Ireland and have become extinct are: Ulster Large White Pig unsuitable for live transport.

  • Population Analysis of a Commercial Beef Cattle Herd
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Debra Jo Schons for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science presented on July 11, 1984. Title: Population Analysis of a Commercial Beef Cattle Herd Abstract approved:Redacted for privacy William U. HonenooKen Twenty-four years of records (1958-1981) from a commercial Angus ranch were utilized in a population analysis to characterize the herd as a biological unit. The herd averaged 632t129 cows and 123±6 replacement heifers with all replacement heifers and many bulls from within the herd. Life tables were calculated for seven full cohorts (1958-1964) and for 15 partial cohorts (1965-1979) with data corrected for a large herd reduction sale in 1967. The model used was female only, for seasonal breeders with overlapping generations, and a time reference of immediately postpartum. Leaving the herd for any reason was equated with mortality. Nine statistics are reported: probability, at birth, of surviving to age x (Lx); age-specific survival and mortality rates (Px andQx); expected herd life (Ex); age-specific birth rate (Mx); reproductive value (Vx); net reproductive rate (Ro); generation interval (T), and instantaneous rate of population increase (r). Average life table statistics were calculated to characterize the herd. The Lx 2 curve was a quadratic curve (R=.91); Px and Qx reflected culling for replacements and increased mortality after age 11; the highest Ex was 5.73-1-.31 at one year of age (replacement heifers); Mx ranged from .33 to .47 with no age-specific pattern; Ro, T and r equaled 1.261.18, 5.621.13 and .03±.03, respectively.

  • Irish Rare Breeds
    Raymond Werner June 2017 WHAT IS AN IRISH RARE BREED? Will look at this in three parts: BREED RARE BREED IRISH RARE BREED No consensus: Despite the centrality of the idea of "breeds" to animal husbandry and agriculture, no single, scientifically accepted definition of the term exists. a stock of animals or plants within a species having a distinctive appearance and typically having been developed by deliberate selection. a group of domestic animals, originated and maintained by man, and having a clearly defined set of characteristics. A breed of livestock or poultry that is not associated with large-scale commercial farming, typically one that has traditionally been reared in a particular region. Non-commercial; traditional; localized; shaped by husbandry, climate etc., isolated Implies a Landrace IMPLIES: AN IRISH LANDRACE PECULIAR TO IRELAND DEVELOPED IN IRELAND BY SELECTION (HUSBANDRY, CLIMATE, ENVIRONMENT) But there are problems……. About 1697 Joseph Ray described the Irish greyhound thus: “The greatest dog I have yet seen, surpassing in size even the Molossus, as regards shape of body and general character similar in all respects to the common Greyhound; their use is to catch wolves.” Great Dane, Scottish Deerhound, English Mastiff, Russian Borzoi Also ‘Tibetan Mastiff’ = Tibetan Kyiapso Was there any original Irish Wolfhound breeding? Heavily contested IS THE CONTEMPORARY IRISH WOLFHOUND AN IRISH BREED? Evidence that it died out Was recreated using a variety of breeds (a composite breed) Created/recreated in England
