Industry News & NotesBeef Industry’s Path Charted
Demand for higher quality can support more cattle in coordinated supply chains
Prosperity for any industry depends on consumer demand, a Western Kentucky University animal scientist points out. Of course, that includes the beef industry or cattle community. Nevil Speer, in a new white paper, “Consumers, Business and Breeding Systems: Charting the Beef Industry’s Path,” says the implications are clear. “All business decisions on the ranch, as everywhere along the beef supply chain, should be made with an eye on consumer demand for beef,” he says. Following a 2011 work that explored why crossbreeding is not more widely used, the latest paper details shifting market signals and a sometimes-volatile relationship between consumer demand and industry output since 1960. It suggests what emerging dynamics mean for an integrated business environment and outlook for the beef industry’s value chain. Thoseexpectationsandfluctuationshavealwaysbeen tied to the consumer, the animal scientist points out. “Traditional thinking leads commodity businesses to constantly face the same question: ‘What’s the market going to do?’” Speers says. “That paradigm implies a price-taker mentality and fails to truly connect to the signals consumers send that establish those prices.” In the face of increased demand for higher quality beef, tight supplies and tighter margins, being a “price taker” risks being left behind. Within a new mindset, success means delivering “quality,consistency,efficiencyandvolumeacrossawholerealm of products and attributes,” Speer says. That requires moving from a “commodity-sorting system to growing adoption of more specialized production.” There are 6 million fewer beef cows in the U.S. compared to 17 years ago, and the feeder cattle supply at 35.6 million head represents less than 2.5 times current feedyard capacity. “That’sbarelysufficienttoprovidenormalturnsofcattle, let alone provide opportunities for extended grazing or heifer retention,” Speer says. The shortage brings more focus on the opportunity to capture the “new dollars” derived only from consumers. Following the retail grocer example of keeping costslowandprofitshighbystockingshelvesandmeatcases only with what’s selling, the beef industry ramped upalliancesandcertifiedbeefprograms.Ittook20yearsaftertheCertifiedAngusBeef®brandfirstbecameUSDA-certifiedin1978for10moreprogramstocomealong.Inthe 13 years since then, 129 new programs have been introduced, nearly 80% of which are Angus-based (See Fig. 12 from the white paper, below). “This points to ever-growing market differentiation,” Speerssays,notingithascomeinthefaceofafinancial
crisis. USDA quality grades are associated with higher levels of marbling, which generally leads to an increased likelihood of a favorable eating experience. In particular, higher degrees of marbling are positively tied to USDA “A-stamp” percentages, with those cattle showing a higher probability of grading Choice or better. “The effect of establishing positive demand spells prosperity: more consumers buying more beef at higher prices,” Speer notes in the research paper. Growth in that market speaks for itself: the value of weekly combined sales for USDA Prime and branded products (a function of both volume and price) has increased nearly 400% since 2003 and now represents nearly $4 billion per year. “Given the outlook for ever-tightening supply, this emphasisanditsinfluenceuponthesupplychainwilllikelybeamplified,”Speerssays.“Whateverthetargetsthatevolve over time, there will be growing pressure to maintain genetics and breeding systems capable of delivering high-quality beef products coupled with synchronized supply chains that facilitate those attributes, including ‘product story.’” With research and market data proving that consumers identify with brands when shopping for beef, he says, those are the programs best poised to take advantage of integrated supply chains that can sway the industry away from that “price taker” mentality. Thevirtuousloopisakindofself-fulfillingprophesy,he says: “The production of higher quality, more desirable products establishes better consumer demand, and in turn, better consumer demand creates the need for even more high-quality beef.” That means holding on to theoretical advantages without discipline can eat your lunch in terms of lost profit.ToreadSpeer’sresearchpaper,visithttp://www.cabpartners.com/news/research.

The Replacement Beef Female Sale: A Win-Win Situation
- John F. Grimes, OSU Extension Beef Coordinator
There is little doubt that there is plenty to be excited about in the beef cattle industry. Nearly every class of beef animals is receiving historically high prices. The portion of the country experiencing drought has reduced significantly over the past 12 months. Forage production has been good this year as the USDA forecast for hay production, excluding alfalfa, is for the largest production since 2004. Feed costs are trending downward on the expectations of a large corn crop that is starting to be harvested.
Nearly all the market signals are in place for cattle producers to expand their herds. Yet, the U.S. beef cow producer fully realizes that expanding the herd is a long-term investment and commitment. This fact has translated to a fairly conservative approach to expanding the nation’s cow herd. There are many factors that have contributed to a slow rate of rebuilding which include strong feeder calf prices, high feed costs, drought, and the advancing age of the average cow-calf producer to name a few.
CattleFax reports that demand for bred and/or open females is as good as it has been in several years. In some locations, there are reports that above average quality heifer calves are selling equal to above their steer mates at similar weights. As always, there is debate as to whether one should raise or buy replacement fe-males. Some believe they cannot buy genetics as good as they can raise while others need to buy outside genetics to improve their herd. Financial considerations usually dictate the approach taken as ultimately, one must decide if it is more cost-effective to produce their own replacements or to purchase them.
One must also consider the long-term nature of cow-calf production when making the decision of how to add females to the herd. If you breed a cow today with the intention of raising a
replacement female to add to the herd, it will take over 1,200 days for that heifer calf to be born, developed as a replacement heifer, bred, calved out and wean her first calf. Will you be able to capitalize on the strong prices received for feeder calves today and forecast for the near term? The purchase of bred replacement females may cre-ate a larger window of opportunity to sell calves in a favorable supply-demand situation.
Conversely, there are real opportunities for those producers wanting to sell females in these times of strong demand. Industry figures show that the nation’s cow herd numbers are at 60 year lows. Prices for bred females continue to improve as supplies tighten. A savvy marketer may want to take advantage of the current market.
I want to remind you that the Ohio Cattle-men’s Association (OCA) is sponsoring an event of potential interest for both the buyers and sell-ers of beef breeding cattle. On Friday evening, November 29, the OCA will be hosting their first Replacement Female Sale. The sale will be held at the Muskingum Livestock facility in Zanesville and will begin at 7:00 p.m.
The 2013 Ohio Cattlemen’s Association Replacement Female Sale will provide an op-portunity for both buyers and sellers to meet the need for quality replacements in the state. Consignments may include cow-calf pairs, bred cows and bred heifers. Females must be under the age of five as of January 1, 2014 and may be of registered or commercial background. Bred females must be bred to a bull with known EPD’s and calves at side of cows must be sired by a bull with known EPD’s. Pregnancy status must be verified by an accredited veterinarian through traditional palpation or ultrasound or by blood testing through a professional laboratory. Analy-sis must be performed within 60 days of sale. Consignments will also be fulfilling specific health requirements.

Industry News & NotesMade In the Shade?
Early results suggest carcass value enhanced by finishing out of the sun
On a hot day, cattle prefer shade. Observing theobviousledtoresearchonthebenefitsofprovidingshade in open pens, even before the era of large-scale cattle feeding. That research continues, ongoing today at Pratt, Kan. Feeders, a 40,000-head, quality-focused feedyard managed by Jerry Bohn. He noted in last year’sprofileonwinningaCertifiedAngusBeef®Quality Focus Award that shades were added to somepenstoassessthecost/benefitoncattlealreadystressed by widespread drought. More recently, Bohn addressed the Feeding Quality Forum Aug. 22 in Garden City, Kan.
“We had a little death loss each of the last three years due to heat,” Bohn said. Last year was the worst, and prompted him to hire an Iowa contractor tobuildfiveshadesstraddling10pens,atthecostof$15,000 each. The 50- by 48-foot steel frames have canvas covers with a heat escape vent in the center, all supported by three 24-inch steel poles. Up to 150 cattle found relief under each structure during the hottest days. Last winter a 17-inch snowfall did not cause problems, but there was significantstormdamagethissummerfrom110-mph
winds. A research project with Kansas State University this year included a veterinary student working at the yard all summer, and that study is in its summary stage now. Preliminary results were shared on groups of cattle that were sorted a month to six weeks before marketing. “Sorting the cattle as equally and randomly as we could, we put one group under the shade and one in the regular feedlot pens,” Bohn said. “We then measured feed intake, average daily gain and feed conversion, and later gathered carcass data from National Beef.” In highlighting basic results, the cattle feeder said he was surprised there was not much difference in feedlot performance with or without shade. “What we did see in four of the six groups was a pretty good difference in packing plant performance,” Bohn reported. “That generally favored the cattle in the shade and it came from hot yield as well as quality grade [see table].” From an animal welfare standpoint, he added, “I think we have to continue to look at these kinds of things as an industry. Sometimes I think we’ll be forced to do things in the future that might not have good economic reasons, but you’ve got to do it the right way.”
