The farmer or rancher should study his condi- tions and requirements before selecting a breed. If a herd is to be maintained for the production of feeder calves or creep-fed calves, it would be desir- able to select a breed that has been developed pri- marily for beef purposes. On the other hand, if it is desired to market milk or other dairy products together with veal calves, feeders, or fat cattle, any one of those breeds or strains developed for both beef and milk will be a good choice. There are registry associations for most of the established breeds herein described. The names and addresses of the secretaries of these associations may be obtained upon request, from the Bureau of Animal Industry, United States Department of Agri- culture, Washington, D. C.

  • The Functional Suckler Cow the Breed for You
    The functional suckler cow The breed for you Beef Shorthorn Cattle Society www.beefshorthorn.org The functional suckler cow Managing efficient, productive suckler cows that thrive within the farm’s unique environment has never been more vital as the beef industry starts to plan for a new period of economic, political and environmental change. These cows also need to make the most of the unit’s available resources. Most factors that affect suckler cow performance are influenced by their genes, so breeding the right type of heifer for the herd is the best way to secure a more profitable future. Selecting a bull that will deliver good maternal traits such as milk and ease of calving, as well as carcase output, is increasingly important. Using tools such as Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs), take some of the guesswork out of breeding decisions, helping deliver female replacements that will, in turn, be fit for purpose for many years to come. Breeding strategies such as crossbreeding can also help produce robust cows that will produce strong and healthy offspring. Sam Boon AHDB Breeding Consultant 2 Beef Shorthorn Cattle Society www.beefshorthorn.org 3 Beef Shorthorn - the functional suckler cow Beef Shorthorn is providing a solution for suckler producers who are seeking a functional cow following the demise of quality replacements sourced for many years from the dairy sector. Furthermore, with trends towards developing closed herds for biosecurity and health reasons, Beef Shorthorn fits well into herd replacement strategies. Beef Shorthorn combines its natural maternal characteristics with performance and ease of management. Beef Shorthorn females excel at • Quiet temperament • Calving ease – low birth weight • Milkiness plus fertility • Easy care • Hardiness – ability to winter outdoors • Feed efficiency, they’ve excellent foraging ability • And they are suited to low input systems It’s also worth remembering that introducing pedigree genetics enables greater consistency in outcome of the cross.

  • December 2014
    I was born on 15 April 1924 at Warracknabeal. My family lived 9 mile east of Brim, and 22 mile north east of Warracknabeal. My father had a 480 acre WW1 soldier settlement block. In 1928 dad bought a Bean car, which had a 4-speed gearbox and had a top speed of 20 mph. Petrol came in 2x4 gallon tins in a wooden box. When the tins were empty, we cut them and flattened them and used them to line the sheds. In the early 1930’s a Hart Parr tractor was the first in the district, followed by a McCormack Deering W30 and then a Lanz Bulldog in 1943. I was schooled by correspondence until 1936 when I attended the Galaquil East school for 2 years - leaving school at age 14 in Grade 7. When I left school I worked on the family farm; I sewed wheat bags for neighbours at 12/6d a hundred – sewing 250 bags a day. Wheat was all bagged in those early days. In 1941 I was offered a job droving sheep at 25/- a week at Edenhope in Victoria. I went for a fortnight and ended up staying for 4 months – I was offered a job in the woolsheds in the September of that year. I went back home to Brim East for the harvest and then returned to Edenhope for crutching. Some of my youth was spent horse riding, winning the bare back championship at the Apsley Rodeo in 1944 on a horse We ran 1,000 Merino ewes mated to Border Leicester called “Ginger Meggs”.

  • Versatile Docile Natural Grazer the Breed for You
    Versatile docile natural grazer The breed for you Beef Shorthorn Cattle Society www.beefshorthorn.org The story so far… Beef Shorthorn is the native breed with a rich past, a dynamic present, and one that is fit for future purpose. Beef Shorthorn is undergoing massive resurgence; a 30% increase in pedigree registrations since 2012, and documented by Defra as the fastest growing native breed. Those trends are credited to breeders who have selected for specific modern maternal performance traits whilst retaining the breed’s native characteristics. Added together, Beef Shorthorn is meeting demand from commercial producers, primarily for a modern functional suckler cow. Demand has further accelerated since Morrisons rolled out the first ever supermarket Shorthorn Beef brand. Beef Shorthorn has a long and distinguished history. The breed evolved over the last two centuries from Teeswater and Durham cattle found originally in the North East of England; in 1822, the first pedigree herd book was published – for Beef Shorthorn cattle. Since then, Beef Shorthorn genetics have been used globally in developing over 40 different breeds. Native breeds came under increasing pressure in the 1960s and 1970s following the invasion of the Continental breeds, however after three decades they were back in vogue. Beef Shorthorn is amongst those witnessing a major turn-around. 2 Beef Shorthorn Cattle Society Why Beef Shorthorn? If you are considering establishing a pedigree beef herd, then think Beef Shorthorn. Females excel at • Docility • Calving ease – low birthweight • Milkiness and fertility • Hardiness – ability to winter outdoors • Feed efficiency – they’ve excellent foraging ability Overall, the breed is a perfect fit for low input, low cost systems.

  • Breeds of Beef and Multi-Purpose Cattle
    BREEDS OF BEEF AND MULTI-PURPOSE CATTLE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The inspiration for writing this book goes back to my undergraduate student days at Iowa State University when I enrolled in the course, “Breeds of Livestock,” taught by the late Dr. Roy Kottman, who was then the Associate Dean of Agriculture for Undergraduate Instruction. I was also inspired by my livestock judging team coach, Professor James Kiser, who took us to many great livestock breeders’ farms for practice judging workouts. I also wish to acknowledge the late Dr. Ronald H. Nelson, former Chairman of the Department of Animal Science at Michigan State University. Dr. Nelson offered me an Instructorship position in 1957 to pursue an advanced degree as well as teach a number of undergraduate courses, including “Breeds of Livestock.” I enjoyed my work so much that I never left, and remained at Michigan State for my entire 47-year career in Animal Science. During this career, I had an opportunity to judge shows involving a significant number of the breeds of cattle reviewed in this book. I wish to acknowledge the various associations who invited me to judge their shows and become acquainted with their breeders. Furthermore, I want to express thanks to my spouse, Dr. Leah Cox Ritchie, for her patience while working on this book, and to Ms. Nancy Perkins for her expertise in typing the original manuscript. I also want to acknowledge the late Dr. Hilton Briggs, the author of the textbook, “Modern Breeds of Livestock.” I admired him greatly and was honored to become his close friend in the later years of his life.
