1 PINZGAUER & PINZ²YL GENOOTSKAP/SOCIETY Nuusbrief / Newsletter Volume 12 / Issue 12 Januarie / January 2016 MERENSKY HOËRSKOOL PINZ²YL STOET Merensky Hoërskool het in samewerking met ZZ2 op 22 Januarie 2016 ʼn groep van 14 jong PinZ²yl verse ontvang. Die doel van die samewerkings ooreenkoms is om diere beskikbaar te stel aan die skool vir die praktiese komponent van die vak Landboubestuurspraktyk. Buiten die akademiese doeleindes, word daar ook met die PinZ²yl verse plaaslik en nasionaal geskou. Jeugskoue is die eintlike fokuspunt. Die PinZ²yl ras is besonder geskik vir die klimaat in Tzaneen en die res van Suid- Afrika. Hulle hanteer die hitte goed en hul bosluisbestandheid en weerstand teen bosluisoordraagbare siektes is ʼn baie sterk eienskap van die ras. Die diere het ʼn liefdevolle temperament wat dit veiliger maak vir die kinders om te hanteer. Aangesien sommige leerders nie vertroud is met die korrekte hantering van diere nie, sou ʼn temperamentele bees die taak aansienlik moeiliker gemaak het. Beeste reproduksie, hantering, voeding en dieresiektes is ten volle geïntegreer in die skool se kurrikulum en leerders woon weekliks praktiese sessies en eksterne kursusse, aangebied deur kundiges in die betrokke velde, by. Die personeel by die skool, leerders, ook hul ouers en almal betrokke by ZZ2 Veeboerdery is baie opgewonde oor hierdie projek. Ons vertrou dit gaan ʼn groot sukses wees en so doende jong suksesvolle boere vir ons land se toekoms help voorberei. Mnr. OJ le Roux het onlangs die leisels as stoetbestuurder oorgeneem by me Christelle van der Westhuizen wat na Polokwane verhuis het. Mnr. le Roux het grootgeword op n plaas waar sy pa onder andere met brahmane geboer het. Hy het in 2003 gematrikuleer aan Hoërskool Merensky met veekunde as een van sy vakke. Gedurende 2004 en 2005 het hy werksondervinding in gebouinstandhouding en dieselmotorwerktuigkunde in Engeland opgedoen. Met sy terugkeer na Suid Afrika het hy vir twee jaar onderwys studeer by Tukkies met plantkunde, dierkunde en wetenskap as sy hoofvakke. In 2008 het hy sy studiefokus verskuif na landbou en hy verwerf n Nasionale Diploma in Vrugteproduksie by die TUT. Hierna voltooi hy sy B.Tech graad in plantvoortplanting ook aan die TUT. Tydens vakansies en in sy praktiese jaar werk hy vir Westfalia en doen ondervinding op in die bestuur van avokado s en makadamia s. Sedert 2013 bestuur hy avokado s op n familieplaas in Magoebaskloof.

2 Jakob Oosthuizen (Senior Bestuurder van die Pinzgauer en PinZ²yl kuddes van ZZ2) en n span van 12 ZZ2 hanteerders het drie dae lank by Merensky nou saam met Mnr. le Roux gewerk om die jong mens-sku verse gereed te kry vir hul eerste ontmoeting met die Merensky leerders. n Formele oorhandigings seremonie word vir die komende week beplan waartydens die Merensky Skouspan amptelik en letterlik die leisels gaan oorneem by die ZZ2 hanteerders. Merensky se trotse skouspan skou uitsluitlik met PinZ 2 yl en Pinzgauer beeste. Die leerders sien uit na n propvol jeugskoukalender in 2016 wat gaan afskop met n bees Jong PinZ²yl verse by Hoërskool Merensky parade by Langs die Oever Landboufees op 8 en 9 April, ons eie Plasie jeugskou op 7 Mei by Hoërskool Merensky, gevolg deur die Letaba jeugskou en Pretoria jeugskou in Augustus. Merensky is in die bevoorregde posisie om hierdie jaar n groot groep ervare senior skoumanne en -dames te hê wat kan help met die opleiding van die entosiastiese nuwelinge in die skouspan. Die skool het n behoefte aan skou-gereedskapskissies met borsels en ander skougereedskap. Enige individue of maatskappy wat belangstel om n bydrae te lewer tot die borg van hierdie kissies kan gerus vir Me Stephanie Perold skakel by van links: Lourens de Jager (Mentor - ZZ2 Veeboerdery), Mev. Fransie le Roux (Onderhoof van Hoërskool Merensky), Stephanie Perold (Landbou Vakhoof) en Paul Gubitz (Lid van die Beheerliggaam van die skool: Landbou Afdeling) Pragtige PinZ²yl Verse in die mooi groenvoerkampie by Hoërskool Merensky.

3 BESOEKERS / VISITORS Adv. Marius van Zyl en sy seun, Jan, van die METZYL PINZ²YL STOET het by ons kom besoek aflê op die 28ste Januarie 2016 en die pragtige vordering en welstand van sy diere kom besigtig. n Besoek wat baie waardeer is deur die personeel by ZZ2 Veeboerdery. Hier is hulle saam met Flip Botha (in die middel) Bestuurder van die PinZ²yl Mentorskap projek. WEANING PERIOD Greetings for the new season 2016 ; we enter the new season with hardship brought by the climatic changes which has seen many farmers losing hope, many livestock perishing due to the drought and the economy being at its low; never the less we lean on the old saying When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. This short article will outline and discuss how we in ZZ2 Livestock Division triumph the weaning seasons. Weaning is basically removing the offspring from depending on its mother; this can be a very stressful time for calves therefore we need to ensure that we minimise the stress as it has effect on the calves health post weaning. After weaning we handle our stock with great care to avoid potential injuries. We then separate bulls from heifers to reduce bullying; these herds are placed in a secured area where there is clean water; good feed and hygienic environment. Good parasite control remains essential as parasitic diseases have the largest financial impact on farm productivity. Parasites of livestock can also be zoonosis, meaning humans can become infected as well. Some parasites cause blood loss which, if substantial, can lead to anaemia and death. Other parasites cause diarrhoea which, if severe, can lead to death. Infestation with parasites can reduce the appetite of animals, resulting in debilitated animals that are more susceptible to other diseases for this reason we ensure very strict parasite control and proper bio- security systems. We have two breeding seasons annually the one for winter calves born between April-June and for our summer calves which are born between September-December. We wean our calves at ages between 7-8 months ideally but at sometimes it all depends on the calf s condition

4 As per the herd book and breed standards of the Pinzgauer and PinZ²yl Cattle Breeders Society of SA it is compulsory for the owner to weigh their new born at birth and the weaning age and these data should be recorded remember to measure is to know.this weights will be used during our selection process at a later stage. At birth we ensure that our calves suckle adequate good quality colostrums which are important to give the calf maternal immunity to certain diseases. By the time a calf is 4 months old, half its food requirement should be met by grass, silage or creep feed, rather than milk as it will be preparing for independence. Calves need to receive individual attention and care immediately following birth. It is compulsory for all cattle to be registered at birth and must bare permanent marking methods and all calves should be identified in less than twenty days. Our primary marking method is Ear tagging which is done on the left ear while tattoo is done in the right ear as our permanent marking method. Animal Diseases Act 35 of 1984 states that it is the responsibility of the owner to vaccinate their livestock for endemic scheduled diseases, vaccination has proven to us beyond reason doubts to be highly effective in prevention of many disease outbreaks and failure to vaccinate continue to be obstacle for growth in many farming enterprises; therefore here in ZZ2 we vaccinate for varies diseases such as Brucellosis, Lumpy Skin, Anthrax, Black quarter and other production diseases. Other practices such as dehorning are also being carried out. After our calves have been weaned and all the mentioned practices done we then select according to phenotype in line with the Herd Standards Manual i.e. calf with poor growth rate classed in order to get intensive care; deformed animals are culled and also select for the ARC performance test recordings. All weaned calves should be under strict surveillance to avoid loss in case of acute diseases. Good primary animal health care, proper nutrition practice and good management principles remain our secret recipes for having a wining herd. We hope you have learnt something from this article about weaning, may this year bring hope to all farmers and lets all join in prayer for good rain. Let s make this a productive year even in these adversities we are faced with. Happy Farming. Masipa Asser Mantsho (BSc. Agriculture in Animal Health) ZZ2 Livestock Division grootboom@zz2.biz ALGEMEEN / GENERAL Die Pinzgauer en PinZ²yl Beestelersgenootskap het dit goedgedink om elke maand aan julle Inligting te voorsien ten opsigte van die Handleiding vir Stoetteles deur SA Stamboek- en Diereverbeteringsvereniging. Hiermee ons eerste plasing: HOOFSTUK 1 DIE VEE- EN STOETBEDRYF IN SUID-AFRIKA ʼn Ras word omskryf as ʼn populasie diere wat van ander populasies binne dieselfde spesie verskil ten opsigte van spesifieke, geneties-gebaseerde eienskappe.

5 Vee en stoetbedryf Telersgenootskappe is mettertyd gestig om beheer uit te oefen oor die aantekening en teling van elke ras, deur rasstandaarde voor te skryf en stambome in stand te hou. Hierdie praktyk het aanleiding gegee tot die mees algemene kenmerke van rasse, die diere van elke ras beskik oor ʼn mate van eenvormigheid ten opsigte van sekere eienskappe, en sulke diere van ʼn sekere mate van gemeenskaplike afkoms is, en deur ʼn aantekeningsertifikaat bevestig kan word. Die foutiewe idee dat stoetstatus bloot op ʼn dier se stamboom berus, geld lankal nie meer nie. Hedendaagse bedryf vereis dat stoetdiere oor ʼn bewese meerderwaardigheid moet beskik, wat voort vloei uit die doelgerigte toepassing van stoetdiere se stamboominligting, rasstandaarde, evaluasie van funksionele doeltreffendheid en produksie aantekening. Die aantekening van hierdie inligting stel stoettelers in staat om aanpassings te maak in hul teeldoelwitte en teelprogramme en om toepaslike genetiese materiaal aan die bedryf beskikbaar te stel. In kommersiële teelstelsels word kruisteling dikwels toegepas. Die sukses van kruisteling hang grootliks af van die genetiese samestelling en meriete van die ouers wat in die program gebruik word. Die waarde van kruisteling lê daarin dat ouerrasse mekaar kan aanvul t.o.v. die laagoorerfbare eienskappe waarin hulle onderling tekortskiet, naamlik deur heterose. Die sukses van heterose is egter afhanklik van die ouerrasse se suiwerheid en die genetiese afstand tussen hulle. Diere wat in kruisteling gebruik word moet individuele voortreflikheid besit t.o.v. additiewe eienskappe wat in die teelprogram van belang is, byvoorbeeld produksie-eienskappe. In kommersiële teelstelsels waar ʼn enkele ras vir die vader- en moederlyne gebruik word, is die individuele meriete van die teeldiere selfs meer belangrik as die kruisteelstelsel. Om hierdie rede moet daar gewaak word teen die ongewensde praktyk waar selfgeteelde, of aangekoopte, kruisbulle gebruik word. Op die kort termyn is daar oënskynlik baie voordele, maar onoordeelkundige gebruik van kruisbulle kan nadelige langtermyngevolge inhou en selfs ʼn kommersiële produsent se ondergang beteken. Dit is ʼn feit dat die waarde van ʼn kruisbul nie naastenby met die van ʼn kruiskoei vergelyk kan word nie. Dit is wetenskaplik bewys dat, terwyl kruiskoeie tot 13% swaarder kruiskalwers speen, kruisbulle hoegenaamd geen bydrae gelewer het tot die verhoogde speengewig in kommersiële produksiestelsels nie. Daar is verder ook geen bewyse dat kruisbulle speengewig of groeivermoë enigsins kan verbeter nie, hulle veroorsaak eerder ʼn afname in die produktiwiteit van ʼn kruisteelstelsel. Die sukses van kommersiële veetelers se teelprogramme is afhanklik van die genetiese kwaliteit van die insette en dit illustreer duidelik hoe wedersyds afhanklik die stoetteler en die kommersiële veeboer van mekaar is. Die rol van die stoetteler is hoofsaaklik om by te dra tot die suiwerheid en verbetering van die ras deur seleksie, rasstandaarde en uitruilings van genetiese materiaal met ander telers binne die ras. Stoettelers moet produktiewe maar bekostigbare teelmateriaal aan die kommersiële bedryf lewer deur meting, aantekening van herkoms, produksie-evaluasie en seleksie. Sulke bydraes vorm ʼn groot grondslag van die doeltreffende produksie in die veebedryf. Stoettelers moet bewus wees van wat die mark en hulle kliënte (die kommersiële telers) verlang en hul teeltbeleid sodanig ontwerp dat hulle nie alleen in die mark se behoeftes kan voorsien nie, maar om slegs bewese meerderwaardige genetiese materiaal so bekostigbaar moontlik aan die kommersiële bedryf kan lewer. Die stoetbedryf is dus duidelik ʼn noodsaaklike vennoot in die totale veebedryf en sy voortbestaan is noodsaaklik vir ʼn mededingende, vooruitstrewende veebedryf. Diereteelt het verby kunsmatige inseminasie (KI) en embrio-oorplasing (EO) gevorder. Nuwe tegnologieë sluit in ovumopvangs, in vitrobevrugting, embriosplyting, semen- en embriogeslagbepaling, kloning en genomiese analises. Telers moet bewus wees van die voor- en nadele van sulke nuwe tegnologieë en die gebruik daarvan om hul teeltdoelwitte te help bereik. ʼn Groot bedreiging vir die stoetbedryf is dat gewilde teeldiere te veel gebruik word en dat dit inteling kan verhoog. Genetiese diversiteit kan slegs behoue bly as inteling beperk word. Dit is juis diversiteit wat diere in staat stel om te reageer op omgewingsveranderings en seleksie.
