1 BEEF & DAIRY BEEFCircle one or both $1.00 Activity Sheet 2017 Level 1 Grades What you will do in this project: Enroll in the 4-H program by January 15. Complete the project by completing a minimum of two (2) activities in this activity sheet and turning it into the Extension Office by June 30 or earlier. This activity sheet consists of activities, and a record sheet. Attend County 4-H Beef & Dairy Beef workshops when offered. Recommend that the 4-H family purchase and review the project resource manual. Refer to the Allen County 4-H Rules Book for a complete listing of all regulations concerning this project. To show Market Beef steers, Commercial Beef heifers and Dairy Beef steers born before January 1 bring animals to February Weigh-In and identify animals in Indiana 4honline by deadline. To show Registered Beef Heifers - identify animals in 4honline by May 15. You will need RFID and Tattoo #/Registration papers. To show DAIRY BEEF feeder calves born after January 1, bring animals to April Weigh-In and identify animals on Indiana 4honline by deadline. To show Beef feeder calves or Beef Junior heifers born after January 1 current year, call the Extension Office prior to May 15 to receive an assigned tag number. Identify animal in Indiana 4honline by deadline. Note - Beef Committee will come to your farm to tag this animal with the assigned RFID and County tags by June 1st. Complete FairEntry online by published deadline. Management Tips: Provide clean, fresh water to cattle at all times. A calf will drink about 8% of its body weight a day in cold weather and up to 19% a day in hot weather. Feed steers about 2.5 pounds dry feed for every 100 pounds of body weight each day. Feed twice daily so you can see how much the animals really eat. Feed growing cattle about 12-16% crude protein in their diet depending on weight and growth rate. Check daily (or twice a day) for injuries, sickness, unusual things or changes in behavior. Provide shade from the sun and protection from wind, snow and rain. De-worm and treat steers for external parasites. Replace bedding often if cattle are stalled. Rinse cattle to clean hair and make it grow better. Brush cattle to calm them and clean and train their hair. Exercise tied cattle daily, or let them loose in the evening. To finalize preparation for showing, train animals at least three times a week for one month prior to the show. 4-H Member: 4-H Club: Grade in School (January 1, 2017) Years in this project Signature of 4-H Member verifying that you have completed these activities: Signature of Parent that you have reviewed this information: 4001 Crescent Avenue Fort Wayne, IN (260) FAX: (260)
2 4-H Animal Care: The Indiana 4-H program strongly supports positive animal care and strongly opposes animal abuse. 4-H is also dedicated to the mission of developing youth and volunteers through Learning by Doing programs. 4-H livestock projects teach life skills such as acquiring knowledge, making decisions, and applying leadership skills. When working and caring for animals, it is important to insure that appropriate safety measures are in place for both the animals and the persons who care for them. Therefore, there is no substitute for knowledge, common sense, and experience. Animal handlers should study and learn to anticipate an animal s reaction and try and avoid problem situations. It is most important that 4-H members understand an animal s behavior so one can outsmart not out-muscle an animal. Foremost, to the 4-H er should always be safety of the handler and the animal. Moving animals is more of an art than a science. Movement of animals requires planning and knowledge to accomplish it with the least amount of time, effort and stress to the animal. An animal s good health is often directly related to the environmental factors associated with its living space. The presence of predators, dust, odors, pests, temperature, and humidity has a direct effect on an animal s well-being. Animals react favorably to daily care and comfortable housing. Consideration should also be given to specific animal needs such as size of their housing space, lighting, and ventilation. The best facilities and equipment cannot and should not be a substitute for daily observation and careful attention to signs of illness, injury, and/or unusual behavior. Frequent consultation with your veterinarian is a must. Reasonable attention must always be given to the use of drugs and their approved withdrawal times. BODY PARTS Both BEEF and DAIRY BEEF Complete On the Hoof Activity 1 To be successful in raising and selecting beef and dairy beef animals, you should know the names of the various parts of the animal and their location on the animal s body. This activity will help you know what to look for and accurately describe what you see. PARTS LIST Place the correct body part number with the correct line or arrow. 1. Tail Head 17. Poll 2.

Why is it important to know and understand different parts of a market animal? Page 3
4 BEHAVIOR 101 Both BEEF and DAIRY BEEF Complete On the Hoof Activity 2 This activity will review selecting your calf. Use Beef Resource Manual Section 2 and the Glossary for terms for information. Then do the following activities. You need to consider the exhibiter when selecting your animal. Large frame animals with small children can be difficult when starting out. Remember to start training early. Be patient and have fun. Match the following terms with the correct definition. 1. Disposition Groups of cattle with similar traits (such as coat, color, horns, or body and head shape) passed from generation to generation. 2. Muscling A young female beef animal that has not calved. 3. Finish The temperament of an animal. 4. Frame Size A sale where the animal is sold to the highest bidder. 5. Breeds Amount of fat cover on an animal. 6. Auctions A measure of hip height used to determine skeletal size of cattle. 7. Heifer A castrated male calf. 8. Steer Market cattle should exhibit down their top and quarters where highpriced cuts come from. Answer the following questions 1. What is the breed of the animal you intend on showing? 2. What kind of disposition (personality) does your animal have? 3. Name one goal you want to accomplish this year with your project? Page 4
5 DAIRY BREEDS DAIRY BEEF Complete On the Hoof Activity 3 Traditionally, dairy breeds of cattle have been associated only with milk production. As a result, many people do not realize that a considerable portion of the beef that they consume is produced by cattle of dairy breed origin. Knowing the various dairy breeds will help you in selecting a good prospective dairy steer. 1. Unscramble the following Dairy Beef breeds: SBSRNWOWIS NSOLIHTE SJYEER ESARRHIY UNERYSGE HHRTIKONSMIORNLG 2. What Dairy Beef Breed is most common in Indiana? 3. What Dairy Beef Breed is the least common? (Answers to this activity can be found in Chapter 11 of the OSU Beef Reference) Page 5
6 BREEDS BEEF Complete This activity will review the different breeds of beef cattle. You can find the information in the Beef Resource Handbook, Chapter 2, and the Color Pictures. On the Hoof Activity 4 The following table lists the breeds acknowledged at the 2016 Indiana State Fair and their requirements for percentage of pure breed that the animal must have. Crossbred Steers & Commercial Heifers Dairy Steer & Feeder Steer Santa Getrudis Salers Simm Solution Simmental Shorthorn and Polled Shorhorn Shorthorn Plus Red Poll Red Angus Maintainer Heifer Maine-Anjou Limousin Hereford Gelbvieh Belted Galloway Chianina Charolais Aberdeen Angus Minimum % Heifer Steer 100% 100% 100% 50% registerable registerable 100% 75% 100% 62% 75% 25% 100% 100% 50% 93.75% 76% 50% 50% 100% % 50% 100% 50% 25% 87% 100% 50% 93.75% 50% 50% 100% 100% Do the Word Search Puzzle from the list of breeds word bank.

When answering these questions, you should be able to see where improvements can be made for next year and if you wish to continue with this project for another year. For this Project Record: Why did you decide to raise and care for these animals this year? How many animals did you manage during the past 12 months? How many were market animals? How many were breeding animals? How many animals did you purchase or add during the past 12 months? Did you purchase these animals alone or in partnership with someone else? If you did purchase animals, why and how did you determine which animals to buy? Did you sell any of your animals during the past 12 months? If yes, how did you find a buyer for your animals? Describe improvements you made to your animal s housing during the past 12 months. (Include equipment, buildings, land, etc ) List two new things that you learned about cattle that you did not know before Page 7
8 Where did you go to find more information about the care of your animals? What health practices did you use with your animals the past 12 months?
