Simmental Association

On behalf of the many dedicated Montana and Idaho breeders who make up the Montana’s Choice sale each year I want to invite you to be part of our 2015 event December 4-5 in Billings, Montana. Starting with an afternoon at Billings Livestock viewing cattle on Friday followed by a fun and educational night of fellowship at the annual MSA banquet, this sale has become more than just a female auction. It is really a great pre-Christmas weekend in Billings!

When you look through the offering, I think you will see that experience really makes the difference. Most of the consignors have been in the SimGenetics business for 35-45 years. The guesswork is taken out and these females are ready to go anywhere and create value for their new owners. The lineup of high quality bred heifers always is a popular one at this sale, but the more than 120 open females available sale day has become just as big a feature. Folks interested in groups of registered open and commercial Simmental and SimAngus females are beginning to find this set of heifers each year and realize they are the right kind at the right value! Even in the commercial offer-ing, almost all of the females are registered or registerable and they are really good. There just aren’t many places in the country where you can access groups of females with this kind of value potential.

This year too will feature a pick of any female from the Begger Diamond V Ranch at Wibaux Montana. Their history of producing great Simmental genetics is as long and storied as any herd in the business. Thanks also to the Lassle family for their generous offering of this year’s donation heifer lot.

If you have questions or just want to visit about the December 5 sale, please contact myself, Garrett or any of the Montana’s Choice consignors. These cattle have a long tradition of being the kind that work for the folks that choose to take advantage of the experience and value in the offering.

Sincerely,Marty Ropp

This heifer is straight out of our keeper pen, and a great representation of our Genetics. Her sire LRS Top Ten 104A was purchased by Acceler-ated Genetics in 2013, and has gone on to be a top semen seller for them and with the looks of this heifer and others at home, he will continue to gain popularity. LRS will have

a great group of Top Ten bulls selling in our annual bull sale February 11th, 2016. The dam of this heifer was the result of a flush from one of our long time donor’s 521R. This heifer has a great personality. We pulled her from the heifer pen, rough clipped her out and took a photo in about 45 minutes and she never once acted up. 573C is homozygous polled, but could carry the red gene. Tremendous EPD’s, tremendous Phenotype, and a great disposition - who ever is the winner of this heifer calf will be very lucky and will have a tremendous cow prospect to add to their herd.

Montana’s Choice PICK OF THE HERD AND BRED HEIFERS

Begger’s Diamond V Ranch is offering the pick of the entire cow-herd, it includes over 800 females to pick from. You may pick out of the spring or fall calving cows bred or open heifers, nothing held back. This opportunity allows you to own your choice of the cow-herd that sold over 150 bulls, this past sale season that averaged $6,975.00. This herd is known for their great udder quality and ability to stay easy fleshing and quiet disposition. Begger’s run their cattle in an un-pampered environment. Their breeding program is designed to put the cow/calf man first. You will find this set of cattle to be big volumed and easy to appreciate. The cowherd is all black hided with very little white, as Beggers have been using all homozygous black and polled cattle in their breeding program for several generations. This opportunity gives you an opportunity to pick from a large herd of Simmental, SimAngus or Angus cattle that raise easy fleshing high quality cattle that are several generations AI bred, and many are outcross genetic packages. Pick must be done prior to spring calving, fall calving picks will be available after calves are weaned in March.

LET OUR FULL CIRCLE ALLIED TEAM WORK FOR YOU!

ALLIED BY REPUTATION. FOCUSED ON SERVICE.

WWW.ALLIEDGENETICRESOURCES.COM

Whom you choose to purchase your seedstock from is just as important as the individual bulls and heifers you choose to buy. Almost everyone in this business o� ers at least a few high value animals each year. There too is likely an auction sale nearly every week in 2015 that promises to be the biggest and best yet. You see them advertised constantly. With that in mind, how do you make that crucial decision on where to source seedstock? It is a decision that will literally a� ect your bottom line for the next 15-20 years? That’s right, many of the bulls you buy in 2015 should still breeding cows in 2020 or beyond. That means the 10 year old cows that have made your operation pro� table in the year 2031 will very likely be sired by those bulls. Does your seedstock supplier have a plan to still be providing you service in 2031 and beyond?

The member owners of Allied Genetic Resources do have a plan for the future. Market development and enhancement, value added programs, genetic decision support and strong allied industry relationships all are part of the long term approach employed by Allied. We know the genetics business will change. The pro� tability we are enjoying in the beef business today nearly guarantees upgrades to the system. Already today, documented, high value genetics help commercial producers ask and get more for the cattle they produce for the larger beef industry. I absolutely guarantee this trend is with us to stay and poised to be more important every year looking forward. Logical change that e� ects pro� t usually happens regardless of the business, at least most places in this world. When folks pay a lot for something, they expect more in return. More consistent and higher pro� t garnering genetics will be part of the risk reduction technology and strategy that drives feeder cattle and slaughter cattle pricing far into our future. Make better decisions today and the potential to bene� t years from now is a very solid proposition.

What about service? Your seedstock supplier really only o� ers you a couple of unique value propositions year in and year out. The � rst is the proof and promise of genet-ic improvement. The very foundation for what these committed folks do everyday centers around o� ering better and more pro� table genetics to customers, consistent-ly. The other important factor that often separates one genetic source from another is customer service. We believe that everything else besides the non-negotiable genetic improvement that you should demand from your supplier can be lumped under the heading of service. Bulls developed properly and tested fertile in order to breed a maximum number of females in year 1 then last for 5-7 years is an important service. Friendly delivery terms, a great selection of genetics, customer satisfac-tion based warranty terms and even a comfortable sale day atmosphere with hot co� ee and a good lunch are all, to some extent services. By the way if your seedstock producer does not warranty the bulls they sell to your satisfaction, we can � nd you and Allied breeder that will. Even the reputation of the genetic supplier you choose has impact on feeder prices at sale time. The member owners of Allied Genetic Resources show their commitment to customer service by concentrating on customer success. The Allied logo is a guarantee of value in itself. Every one of the Allied breeder network, more than 20,000 seedstock cows strong has made the commitment to enhanced opportunities available to the best group of commercial producers in the land, their customers.

Allied is blessed to work with the highest reputation and outwardly committed group of seedstock suppliers in the world. You’ll � nd only commercially focused, pro� t minded folks in this alliance. For proof, just check out our membership scope and service options available at www.alliedgeneticresources.com . Feeder cattle and replacement female marketing are available by contacting Clint Berry with commercial herd strategies, seedstock procurement and beef chain consulting from Marty Ropp. Marketing plan assistance and advertising for commercial or seedstock producers is available from Julie Murnin, and for seedstock marketing solutions plus online options to bolster marketing value both for commercial cattle and genetics contact Garrett Thomas. We believe you will � nd substantial value in our full circle approach to providing services to the great customers of our Allied seedstock producers owners. Look for the Allied logo before you make your choice for high value genetics with service.
