3 SALE INFORMATION Sale Agent - SALE PROCEDURE The sale order was determined by a random draw of consignors for a position in the rotation. Each consignor selected the order of their lots. Heifers will be sold in uniform lots according to breed, type, and size. Heifers in each lot are expected to calve within 45 days of each other. Heifers become the property of the purchaser immediately after the sale. Each animal will be at the purchaser s risk as soon as sold. No cattle will be loaded until the conclusion of the sale. All fees will be collected by Farmington Livestock Auction, LLC and are to be settled before loading cattle. GUARANTEE All heifers guaranteed bred and are guaranteed to remain pregnant for 30 days after the sale. Due dates are approximate. Females can range 2 weeks or more around the due date even if they were AI bred on the same day. Heifers were pasture exposed to bulls after AI. Any heifer found open by an accredited veterinarian will be refunded by the consignor. Heifers are guaranteed against genetic defects on first calf only if inspected and documented by a veterinarian or accredited DNA test. All guarantees are made by the consignor of the cattle and not the sale committee, St. Francois County Extension or Farmington Livestock Auction, LLC.

4 Requirements for Heifers in the 2019 Replacement Heifer Sale These requirements are designed to minimize the incidence and severity of calving difficulty and protect against potential reproductive losses. Heifers must be bred to service sires at or above established calving ease EPD s minimums, have a minimum pelvic area of 150 cm2 at prebreeding or 180 cm2 at pregnancy examination, be a minimum body condition score of 5 and a maximum of 8 on sale day, and meet established health guidelines. Weaning: All heifers must be calfhood vaccinated for Brucellosis according to Missouri state regulations. Heifers are vaccinated for IBR, PI-3, BVD, BRSV, and 7-way Clostridia. Label directions concerning initial vaccination and boosters must be followed. Use of implants is discouraged. If heifers are implanted, only FDA approved products for replacement heifers are allowed according to label guidelines. Long-term use of MGA is prohibited. Use of MGA for periods up to 14 days to synchronize estrus is permitted. Internal and external parasites are controlled as needed. Heifers must be polled or de-horned and completely healed by sale day. Pre-Breeding: Pre-breeding reproductive examination is performed. Reproductive tract scored, pelvic measurement, weighed. Heifers are vaccinated for IBR, BVD, Leptospirosis and Vibriosis between 60 and 30 days prior to beginning of breeding. All vaccinations must follow label directions. Internal and external parasites are controlled as needed. Pregnancy Exam: Heifers are pregnancy examined by 90 days to determine breeding dates. (Confirm AI pregnancy or natural service). A preg check is also done within 30 days of the sale. Heifers are treated for external and internal parasites within 30 days of sale date. Products for internal parasite control must have a label claim for all stages of the parasite life cycle. Leptospirosis (5-way) given at preg check. Heifers are examined on sale day by a final screening committee to eliminate blemishes (scarred eyes, frozen ears, short tails, rat tails). They must have a muscle score of at least a 2 and not have an undesirable disposition. Tested negative for BVD-PI. Sire Requirements: Heifers must be bred to bulls with birth weight or calving ease EPD's that meet the guidelines for the following breeds based on the current genetic evaluation at the time of breeding for the respective breed associations. Accuracy values of 0.6 or better for birth weight and calving ease EPDs are required on AI sires: Breed Group Percentile Requirement Angus CED 7.0 American Upper 20% Service Sire Breed 2019 Minimum calving ease EPD Angus 7.0 Balancer 13.0 Charolais 9.7 Gelbvieh 13.0 LimFlex 13.0 Limousin 13.0 Hereford 4.7 British Upper 30% Red Angus 13.0 Continental Upper 15% Hybrid Upper 15% SimAngus 13.0 April 19, 2019 Simmental 13.0 Page 4

5 Using this Catalog: Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): provide a genetic value predicting the performance of future offspring for each animal as a way to compare animals within a breed. Information from the animal s individual performance, offspring performance and performance from other relatives go into calculating EPDs. Each EPD is reported in the same unit of measure as the trait i.e. weaning weight is reported in pounds. These numbers are a tool for breeders to utilize to help them decide what traits are important to their program and how they can make changes in their herd. Accuracy: is the reliability that can be placed on an EPD. Accuracy is reported as a decimal number between zero and one with larger numbers indicating higher accuracy and more certainty the EPD will not change as more progeny information is obtained. Accuracies of.20 and below are typical of non-parent bulls. Genomic (DNA) testing of bulls will increase accuracy values. EPD Definitions: Birth Weight EPD (BW): The expected difference in average birth weight (lbs) of progeny. Birth weight reflects prenatal growth potential and may also be used as an indicator of calving ease. Calving Ease Direct (CED): Expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. Weaning Weight EPD (WW): The expected difference in average weaning weight (lbs) of calves. The evaluation reflects genetic influence on pre-weaning growth rate. Yearling Weight EPD (YW): The expected difference in average yearling weight (lbs) of progeny. The evaluation reflects genetic influence on pre-weaning and post-weaning growth rate. Maternal Milk EPD (Milk): The expected difference in average weaning weight (lbs) of daughter's calves attributed to milking ability. In other words, it is a predictor of a sire's genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed in his daughters. Carcass Weight (CW): Expressed in pounds is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Marbling EPD (Mrb): Expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Ribeye Area EPD (REA): Expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Fat Thickness (Fat): Expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Trait Accuracy Tier 2 Classification: Heifers will be eligible to qualify for Tier 2 in the Show-Me-Select Replacement Heifer Program based on the following minimum accuracies of the heifer s sire at the time of sale for the respective traits listed at right. Calving ease (direct).65 Calving ease (maternal).30 Weaning weight.75 Carcass Weight.20 Marbling.20 Show-Me-Plus Classification: Heifers tested with a heifer genomic prediction panel approved by University of Missouri Extension will be given the designation of a Show-Me-Plus Heifer. These include breed association GE-EPD, GeneMax, Maternal Edge, Herd Navigator, Igenity Gold, Igenity Silver, Method Choice, and Method Commercial tests. Heifer DNA samples must be submitted and paid for two months prior to sale date. April 19, 2019 Page 5

Once selected for the Show-Me-Select Program, heifers are hand feed daily to promote maturity growth and reinforce human contact. During working events, extra caution is exercised to avoid stress to the heifers. Heifers were only exposed to two rounds of artificial insemination. Effective bull was selected based on CED of 16 for calving ease, BW of -2.2, WW of 45, and YW of 85 all having high accuracies that should provide high quality uniform calf sizes. Effective promotes traits that reinforce animal disposition. Schiefelbein Effective 61 Angus: (.82) -2.0 (.92) 45 (.90) 85 (.85) 27 (.69).84 (.66).39 (.62).054 (.65) April 19, 2019 Page 8
