At this point in time, 2009 is almost half over. That means there are only 6 months left until Christmas! Time goes by so fast, and I think each year it speeds up – either that, or I am moving slower. Actually, I prefer to be-lieve that I am just busier, and trying to accomplish more in my life. How many of us have made that resolution, or set that goal, on January first, that this year we are going to achieve everything – that everything will get done way in advance of a deadline. Well, we all know how that turned out! I know I had those thoughts – and I tried, but now I find myself be-hind on several projects. I do know that those projects will get done – or at least the most important ones will. But I also know that there will be a rush to the end to get there. Yes, a year from now always seems a long way away until we start to think what we have going on each month, and then how fast that time is going to go by – and then its, Oh Boy!, I had better get busy!

County fairs are in full swing, and your State Fairs are right around the corner. When you first got your project animals, these events seemed a long way off. At the first, you needed to plan what you were going to do to reach the end point. If you did your homework and followed that program, you should be ready for your big event. What a great feeling, to know that you are prepared because you did that planning early on.

Along with all the preparation you have done with your projects at home, don’t forget that it is just as important how you present yourself at the fair. Be on your best behavior, and be knowledgeable about your project. You never know who is watching or asking questions (i.e. animal rights activists, your future boss, a potential buyer). The public is interested in what it takes to get your project to this point. Share with them your re-sponsibilities, plans, and goals. Show good sportsmanship. People always notice how someone acts in public, and these opinions will stay with them a long time. Decide if you want to be remembered for your work ethic, your courteous behavior, and your dedication, or your poor sportsman-ship and bad attitude. Be sure to add to your positive image by thanking everyone who has helped you along the way. Write those thank you notes and express your gratitude to your supporters. Also be sure to thank the fair staff that works many, many hours to put on a show for you to be a part of.

Along with this middle of the year mark, comes a milestone for many. I am talking about graduation! From kindergarten, middle school, high school, or college, each of these levels marks a new stage in a young person’s life. Receiving that diploma is an honor and in this issue, we highlight many of agriculture’s youth who have graduated from high school, and are ready to spread their wings, and pursue their dreams and future plans.

I am excited because 2009 is the 10 year anniversary for the California Junior Livestock Association. It has been wonderful to see this organi-zation grow from an idea to what it is today. Even with the uncertain economy, the support of the youth members and the participating junior shows remains as strong as ever. This just goes to prove that involving kids in animal projects is truly a positive influence in a persons’ life. In this issue is a State of the CJLA article. I thought it was important to explain some of the policies of the CJLA and some of the issues facing it as well. I welcome feedback from anyone, so please feel free to contact me with thoughts, suggestions, or comments.

The next issue of Pacific Showcase is the Big State Fair Book. This issue goes to all State Fairs west of the Rockies, including New Mexico, Colo-rado, and Utah, and of course, to our subscribers across the United States. Don’t miss out on being a part of this issue. Give us a call and we will help you advertise your program, product, or event.

As always, if you have moved, be sure to let us know your change of ad-dress so you don’t miss a single issue. And continue to send in your Hot Shot photos. You can mail photos to the PS office or email them to Wil-liam at [email protected].

Until next time – keep working towards those goals and deadlines. Accomplishing even one small project reaps huge amounts of self-satisfaction! And doesn’t that feel good!

June/July 2009 12

By Claire Hinken, MA and H.J. Hamlen, DVM, MS, DACVPM

Introduction: Health certificates, signatures, vaccinations, and physi-cal exams. What a pain! Why it is such a big deal to get your animals entered into the state fair? The process might be complicated, but the answer is actually very simple: because we all want to do everything we can to keep our livestock, and the human population, free of serious diseases. If you look at your state’s fair website, you will be able to read, in detail. what is required to enter your animal.

Basically, most states differentiate between ‘Out of State Origin Live-stock’ – those animals born in another state, and State Origin (those born in the state where the fair is being held). There may be slightly different requirements from fair to fair, but generally, all livestock must be accompanied by an official health certificate. The length of time that the health certificate is valid varies depending on the species and the fair regulations, but it may expire in as little as 14 days. This means that it would have to be issued during a short window of time before you depart for the fair. Make sure your veterinarian is avail-able. There are different guidelines (tests, vaccinations, accreditations) for different species. But each animal, regardless of species, may be subject to re-examination upon entry or during the show. An animal may not be permitted to exhibit if there are any concerns about a pos-sibly infectious disease, or if the paperwork is not in order. Each state has slightly different rules, so it’s important to know what the specifics are long before the fair so that you have plenty of time to meet all the requirements.

The Threat of Infectious Disease: What fair authorities are wor-ried about is the spread of disease among the animals while they are at the fair. Remember that many diseases start out as “subclinical” or impossible to see. When animals congregate in close quarters they can pass infectious disease to other susceptible animals through the air, the water, their feces, and even through open wounds. If the infection spreads amongst animals at the fair, then they may leave and return home before any clinical signs are seen. Then they come in contact with even more animals. The infection can spread like wildfire. The more rigid the rules are, the less likely it is that one sick animal will in-fect hundreds, or even thousands. Or, more to the point, the less likely it will infect YOUR animal. The last thing you want is for your animal to return home from the fair with a disease, and go on to infect the rest of your herd. You want to come to the event with the knowledge that everyone around you has followed the same health rules that you have.

Several diseases are frequently cited in fair health regulations: tuber-culosis, pseudorabies, hoof and mouth disease, and brucellosis, to name a few. When you study these diseases, you can see why we need to safeguard our livestock by having, and enforcing, health regulations for animals entering fairs. Let’s take a closer look at brucellosis.

Brucellosis, a disease caused by the Brucella species of bacteria, is infectious, contagious, zoonotic (can be passed from animal to hu-man), and reportable (meaning a positive case must be reported to the

Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health so that it can be appropriately handled). Although there are different species of Brucella bacteria, and some are more likely to infect certain species (B. canis the dog, B. abortus livestock and wildlife, and B. melentesis sheep and goats, B. suis in swine, B. ovis in sheep)) they are all considered potentially zoonotic. Brucellosis is largely a disease of the reproductive tract, and can affect cattle, swine, sheep and goats, dogs, and people. It is passed by ingestion of the bacteria (for example in unpasteur-ized milk), inhalation, direct contact, and venereal contact. Brucella causes abortions in pregnant females. Often, the disease is subclinical in the infected ani-mal and owners don’t recognize it until a large percentage of the herd aborts. The infected animal continues to shed the bacteria during each subsequent birth, which facilitates the spread of the disease through-

out the herd. Offspring are often weak and sickly. Infected rams and male dogs may become infertile. People can contract the disease by handling fluids and tissues from an infected animal during a birth, or consuming contaminated animal products. Contamination of skin wounds may be a problem for workers in slaughterhouses or meat packing plants or for veterinar-ians. Hunters may be infected through skin wounds or by accidentally ingesting the bacteria after cleaning infected deer, elk, moose, or wild pigs that they have killed. A person with brucellosis has a fever (the disease is also called “Undulant fever” and “Mediterranean fever” due to its prevalence in the Middle East) that comes and goes, weakness, and a general flu-like feeling. It can affect many parts of the body including the heart, joints, nervous

system, and gastrointestinal tract. You can check out more clinical signs of brucellosis in people at the website for the Centers for Disease Control (www.cdc.gov).

Importantly, there is no effective way to detect infected animals by their appearance. The impact of brucellosis may not be immediately apparent because the animals do not appear sick. However, there are economic as well as physical ramifications of this disease. Having to quarantine (isolate) your herd, or take it out of production, could have a huge effect on your family’s in-come. The Cooperative State Feder-al Brucellosis Eradication Program works to eliminate the disease from the U.S. Like other animal disease-eradication efforts, the success of the program depends on the support and participation of livestock produc-ers (more information about the program can be found at www.aphis.usda.gov). Studies have shown that, if brucellosis eradication program efforts were stopped, the costs of producing beef and milk would increase by an estimated $80 million

“Why is it so hard to enter the fair these days?”

Brucellosis can infect people through a variety of pathways.

The livestock community may see brucellosis as primarily a

livestock disease, but dog breed-ers do routine blood testing of both males and females before breeding and adding new dogs

to their kennel.

Brucella ovis bacteria can cause infection of the tail of the testes

(epididymis) in rams and can lead to lamb losses of up to 20% in suscep-tible ewes. Serious economic losses occur in southern Europe, Northern

Africa, and the Middle East due to Brucella melentenis. If exposed, sheep can also contract B. abortus.

By Karol Aure-Flynn

Water issues in California provide a backdrop for two important les-sons for the young agriculturalist and livestock producer. The first les-son is the importance of water as a central production risk. Secondly, when this risk materializes, water scarcity highlights agriculture’s contribution to the overall economy.

Water Risk

Crop and livestock investments are subject to many different types of risk. Among production risks, both excess and lack of water can quickly change a crop’s potential. Most frustrating is water’s susceptibility to conditions outside of the direct control of agriculturalists. California farmers and ranchers not only must plan for natural climate cycles, but the increasingly restrictive regulatory structure that is diverting water away from agricultural stakeholders and creating a ‘regulatory drought’. A mosaic of long standing water rights for farmers and water users is under increasing pressure to provide surface and stored water to environmental and urban needs. California is among the world’s most productive agricultural regions (Australia, Israel, among others) that require irrigation to thrive.

California’s $37 billion in gross agricultural receipts is dependent on a reliable supply of water to irrigate both high value crops and the local fodder for California’s dairy herd. To add to the risk borne by agribusi-ness to a trend of decreasing overall allocations, the ag economy relies on a conveyance system that was built to transport water from areas of surplus (North) to areas of deficit (the Central Valley). In a well pub-licized 2008 court case, water delivery was shut down intermittently under a judicial application of the endangered species act. This com-bination of natural and manmade circumstances ushered in the third year of drought, putting irrigation-dependent California agriculture in a familiar position of initiating drought management and contingency plans. Forward planning and risk mitigation is essential; however, experts believe that this water crisis is different.

In his work for the Giannini Foundation, Dr. Richard Howitt et al. of UC Davis believe the current drought presents an unprecedented crisis for regional agriculture. In past drought cycles, agriculture’s response to drought was a combination of increasing reliance on groundwater, higher value crops (more investment), emergency water markets, and irrigation efficiency. The cost of drilling has in many cases surpassed the payback to increased groundwater removal from aquifers with limited capacity, and much of the cropping adjustments to higher value crops (such as perennials) has already been achieved on suitable soils. Water markets are still evolving, with site-specific rights and needs. In regards to water efficiency, California growers have been doing more with less for decades. Water applied to crops fell by approxi-mately 14 percent from 1967 to 2007, while the real, inflation-adjusted

gross revenue for California agriculture increased approximately 84 percent in the same period. See figure 1.

In addition, California ranchers are faced with rapidly declining pasture conditions, despite some hopeful March rains. USDA’s weekly crop progress report reports 60% of California’s rangeland pastures are in poor to very poor condition. Livestock price declines at the market place are tightening the squeeze. Hay prices have declined, but nega-tive feeding economics are dictating sales.

Measuring Economic Impact of Drought

While estimates vary, The Department of Water Resources and UC Davis forecast between $1.2-1.6 billion in lost revenue for Central Val-ley Farmers, another $1.6-2.2 billion in direct and indirect lost income to employees, with job losses at between 60,000 and 80,000. Statewide, income losses are projected at $2.8 billion, with total job losses at 95,000 unemployed.

These economic losses move the importance of agribusiness to front and center. Central Valley agribusiness provides a pillar of support for healthy rural communities. When water scarcity undermines business operations, the communities and individuals suffer.

Calculated risk comes with some degree of probability, and individual circumstances determine how the odds will play out. Rabobank rec-ognizes that exposure to water risk is highly individual, even within the broad context of a crisis for California agriculture. Risk mitigation is also highly circumstantial as availability/suitability of surface and groundwater is constrained by complex mosaic of water rights and pre-scriptive agencies involved in the process of distribution. The impor-tant issue for the individual is that types and sources of water, rights of use and transfer, environmental sensitivity, and cropping requirements are spelled out in a comprehensive drought risk plan.

Why is this applicable to your livestock project? Because calculated risks are a part of every business plan, whether raising a few head with a show / fair in mind, or with a commercial venture. Risk management is an integral part of your project and business plan. How did you do? Were your input costs, operations, logistics, technical skills, and sales/exit strategy within plan? What risks materialized? How well did you plan? An amusing comparison surfaced recently as I attended a small town rodeo in our neighborhood. Amidst the music, the bling, and the hoopla, the rodeo announcer introduced a bucking bull named Water Table. With all this worry about water, I wondered if it was my subconscious speaking out loud. For farming and ranching (and bull riding), risk planning is really the business obligation to prepare for when trouble presents itself, not if.

Rabobank is committed to the business of food and agriculture. We support strong experiential learning and business projects for youth. Congratulations on your success and more importantly on the business lessons that you have learned along the way. Use water risk in Cali-fornia as an example of a broad, rapidly evolving, and serious produc-tion risk that impacts agribusiness. Watch for examples of industry alignment and innovation it will take for California Agriculture to clear this current hurdle. Water risk is an ever-present concern that will determine the future for California agribusiness and its continued contribution to our overall economy.

June/July 2009 18

by Kathleen Wood-Vieira

By early June of 2009, the Center for Disease Control and Preven-tion (CDC) has announced that the World Health Organization has finally declared the novel type A H1N1 flu a pandemic. What exactly is a pandemic? It’s an outbreak of a widespread infec-tious disease (epidemic) that occurs over a very wide geographic area, crossing international borders. From the first April 15th confirmed case to date, this flu has affected 74 countries world wide and has sickened 30,000 people. That’s the bad news, the good news? To date, while each death is tragic, there are only 141 deaths, a rate of less than one-half of one percent, have been confirmed.

This virus is spreading from person-to-person, much in the same manner as regular seasonal flu. So then why in the world was, and still is in some venues, this illness mislabeled as “Swine Flu.” At first, according to the CDC, under scientific testing many of the genes seemed to be similar to flu viruses that are found in North American hogs. However, further studies proved that this is actually a quadruple re-assortment virus, sharing porcine, avian and human genes and is very, very different from what normally circulates in North American pigs.

The thing to remember is, that even though it shares these genes and has the potential to be zoonotic (capable of being passed from pigs to humans), this is not the normal mode of infection. It is human to human contact that passes the flu along.

But wait, there is that good news, that less than one-half of one percent death rate, right? Right, but this H1N1 flu is similar to one that devastated the world close to a century ago, the 1918 Influenza Pandemic or as it was referred to then, the Spanish Flu. The Spanish Flu killed 675 thousand people in the United States and close to 40 million world-wide. That number reflects more people than all those who perished in Europe’s Black Death and is ten times greater than the human loss of the First World War. The CDC states that the 1918 virus is likely an ancestor of the current H1N1.

With such an infamous pedigree, the H1N1 virus just needed a cute nickname to get it in the news. But that cute nickname has had a negative impact on America’s pork industry.

National Pork Producers Council CEO, Neil Davis says, “Inac-curate media reports are negatively affecting U.S. pork producers and the reputation of U.S. pork as a quality and safe product. That’s hurting producers economically and threatening U.S. pork export markets.”

According to reports from late April when the first reports of H1N1 were confirmed through May, a reduction in hog prices cost United States producers $81.5 million dollars. Unfortunately, this flu outbreak is the third major blow to the pork industry. The first was the 2007-2008 sharp rise in feed prices; second, the global financial crisis and third was the misnomer of “swine flu” for the H1N1 virus. The good news is that the reaction to the flu should be short term rather than long term.

One story that circulated rapidly throughout national and inter-national media sources was that the virus originated at a hog farm in Vera Cruz, Mexico. However, test results performed by the Mexican Ministry of Agriculture, Ranching, Rural Develop-ment, Fisheries and Food (SAGARPA) confirmed that the pigs not only tested negative for the H1N1 virus, they were free from

other viruses, as well.

Two countries, China and Russia, represent a 27.4 percent share of U.S. pork exports or nearly 1.28 billion pounds. Both countries have used the H1N1 outbreak to stop imports. There is some evidence that both countries have used the virus to protect and expand their own pork industry, though Russian spokesman Alexei Alexeyenko denies it. China’s agriculture ministry has no explanation for the ban.

The Canadian Minister of Agriculture, United States Secretary of Agriculture and Mexican Secretary of SAGARPA issued a joint statement to stress the safety and importance of continuing nor-mal worldwide trade of pork products:

“We strongly urge the international community not to use the outbreak of the H1N1 influenza as a reason to create unneces-sary trade restrictions and those decisions be made on sound scientific evidence. H1N1 influenza viruses are not spread by food. International organizations including the WHO, FAQ and the World Health Organization for Animal Health, all reiterate that the consumption of pork meat and related products do not present a health risk of contracting H1N1 influenza. All three of our countries are committed to ongoing monitoring and vigilance in both public and animal health.”

So, it’s certainly safe to have a ham sandwich, but how can you protect yourself from catching H1N1?

Know the symptoms: fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, chills and fatigue, sometimes diarrhea and vomiting.

Take these everyday steps to protect your health and the health of others:

• Coveryournoseandmouthwithatissuewhenyoucoughorsneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

• Washyourhandsoftenwithsoapandwater,especiallywhenyou cough and sneeze. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective.

• Keepareasclean.

• Avoidtouchingyoureyes,noseormouth.Germsspreadthisway.

• Trytoavoidclosecontactwithsickpeople.

• Stayhomeifyouaresick.

These symptoms and the entire H1N1 pandemic should not be taken lightly. There is some concern that the flu may reappear in a stronger form during the normal flu season this coming fall, however, the CDC is working very diligently to track and monitor the virus. USDA reports that safeguards are already in place.

How can you help the U.S. pork industry? Throw a couple of thick, juicy loin chops on the BBQ, enjoy and above all, use this flu’s proper name. Remember it’s H1N1, not that cute, but devastating nickname. The United States pork producers will thank you!

Call It H1N1

The old adage “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” may soon be replaced with “a candy bar a day.” Once considered just an after-dinner treat, dark chocolate is now thought to be a healthy supplement to the diet — and it’s all because of antioxidants.

Antioxidants are molecules that slow or prevent the oxidation of chemi-cals. Recent studies have shown that these molecules can be helpful in maintaining health and preventing disease. But humans are not the only ones racing to get their hands on the supplement; the animal industry has also seen benefits. While humans are grabbing chocolate kisses, animal producers are reaching for organic selenium supplements.

The role of selenium in animal diets has noticeably changed over the last 75 years. In the 1930s, selenium was considered a toxic agent and thought to be the cause of alkali disease in animals. In 1957, selenium research by Schwarz and Folz showed that selenium is an essential nutrient for laboratory animals. Since its FDA approval in 1987, selenium has become a standard ingredient in animal diets. Besides including calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, chloride, zinc, copper, iodine, cobalt, and Vitamins A, D, and E in rations, nutritionists have found the value of also adding selenium.

A mineral naturally found in forages and grains, selenium is often defi-cient in the diet due to variations in soil content across the country. For those of you showing breeding stock, selenium deficiency is especially critical. When selenium reserves are at their lowest during parturi-tion, the transfer of selenium to the developing animal through the placenta then into colostrum and milk can be a drain on the animal’s

reserves and can have a severe impact on their ability to resist disease challenges. Acting as an antioxidant through selenium-containing enzymes, selenium can help to protect milk producing cells, reduce somatic cell count in milk and increase defense mechanisms within the udder against bacteria.

Prior to 2003, the only FDA approved sources of selenium were sodium selenite and sodium selenate. Today animals have another option to

build their selenium status through natural forms, such as Sel-Plex® from Alltech®. Since injected inorganic sele-nium cannot be stored in appreciable amounts, it is more rapidly excreted. In contrast, the organic selenium form is better retained and more biologi-cally available than inorganic forms, which allows the animal to build nutrient reserves against periods of increased demand without risking

toxicity. This is reflected by increased selenium in blood, tissues and milk.

Selenium is needed to maintain good animal health. Animals fed insufficient amounts of selenium are at higher risk for diseases. While selenium has several roles, the most well-known is antioxidant defense. This makes it important in every cell in the body as well as for the im-mune system.

While the selenium status of our animals is important, owners should also examine their own diets. Humans may soon turn to organic sele-nium for their own antioxidant defense instead of the popular dose of chocolate.

As the CJLA enters its’ 10th year of operation, I feel it is time to discuss the opportunities and problems that we face, and that must be addressed in order for us to continue to move forward. It has been amazing to see this idea of an organization to recognize and reward youth that raise and show livestock, develop into what it is today. Each year we see repeat members and many new members, and more and more shows coming on board to hold sanctioned events for CJLA participants.

Some of you may wonder about the relationship between the Pacific Showcase and the CJLA. First of all, the magazine and the CJLA are two entirely different entities. The magazine is a business and the CJLA is a non-profit organization. The magazine is a voice for the CJLA. It has run pages and pages of CJLA point standings over the years as well as other articles, news, and items for which the Pa-cific Showcase has incurred the cost. The Pacific Showcase charges the CJLA a greatly reduced rate for advertising, and there are times when we just have to write off the CJLA’s bill because it does not have the money. The Pacific Showcase has helped the CJLA finan-cially on many, many occasions when it needed funds to operate.

The changing economy affects everyone in some way. People are thinking more about their budgets, and are making decisions that work for them. The CJLA, which is already losing money, must come up with ways to counteract its’ continuing deficit. It is a serious situation, and the CJLA management will be taking steps to balance expenses and income. We have always worked at a minimum and it is imperative that we come up with additional sponsorships and new fundraising ideas.

Each year the rental fee of our banquet facilities at the Mid State Fairgrounds increases. It is a major challenge to put on an award banquet for over 600 people and the expense of just this event takes a huge chunk of the budget. Add to that the year-round operating expenses, and the award program, it is easy to realize that it takes a sizeable fund to make it all work.

The CJLA is an amazing organization. It has undertaken things that no organization of our size has done. We went from an idea and 90 members, to one which now annually sanctions over 34 shows and has a membership in the 300’s. We are looking forward to new opportunities. We know that we service an amazing group of people, people who believe in junior livestock exhibition like no other group I’ve known. We want to include new contests and ideas into the organization. Essay and resume contests, scholarship programs and other ideas have been on the drawing board for some time now. They are just waiting for a way to get started.

So many wonderful parents, friends, and businesses have stepped up to the plate over the years with financial support. We still need your help. We need the names of sponsors that you think might be interested. We need fundraising ideas. We need your donations in any amount. We need your suggestions. We need for you to recruit new members and show your gratitude to the shows that pay to sanction their events for you. Times may be tough, but with a posi-tive attitude and willingness to work for something good for our kids, I know that the CJLA can move to the next level.

The months go by fast, and before we know it, our 10th anniversary award banquet will be upon us. Please give some serious thought to my comments and let me know how you can help. It will take every-one doing something to keep the CJLA going strong into the future.

Sincerely,Heidi Beljean

“Keep up the feet, or you will get beat!”

Members of the National Junior Angus Association (NJAA) came together for the Raising the Bar Officer Training, April 25, in Reno, Nevada. The conference included 12 attendees plus six NJAA Board members from six states.

Raising the Bar is a highly intensive leadership training for officers to build stronger teams within their state junior associations and develop and utilize regional relationships. Raising the Bar is open to five state officers and two state ad-visors from each state in that region, and is provided through financial support from the Angus Foundation.

The workshops prepared and conducted by the NJAA Board of Directors, included fundraising and budgets and public speaking. The attendees also participated in a team building and goal setting activities.

This is the third year for Raising the Bar that allows officers and advisors from state junior Angus associations to meet regionally.

The NJAA promotes the involvement of young people in rais-ing Angus cattle, while also providing leadership and self-development opportunities for nearly 7,000 active members nationwide. For more information about Raising the Bar Conferences or the NJAA, look online at www.njaa.info or call the Association at 816-383-5100.

annually in less than 10 years. States are designated brucellosis free when none of their cattle or bison is found to be infected for 12 consecu-tive months under an active surveillance program. In the last nine years, five states have attained free status due to the hard work of pro-ducers and animal health officials. As of February, 28, 2009, 49 States, plus Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, were free of brucellosis, and Montana has one infected cattle herd and Class A status.

You can prevent Brucellosis in your own animals by following accepted protocols. Vaccinations (like RB 51) increase resistance and prevent abortion, but do not prevent the infection. You can avoid contracting brucellosis yourself by making sure the dairy products you eat are pasteurized, and by wearing protective equipment and gloves if you are ever assisting with a birth or other medical procedure. And always wash your hands after working with the animals!

Brucellosis is an insidious disease. Fair regulations are designed so that brucellosis, and other serious diseases, won’t hitch a ride home

with you in your stock trailer. By following brucellosis testing regula-tions for the Fair, you are playing an active role in eradicating brucel-losis from our country. You know the regulations and came to the fair prepared with a healthy, wholesome animal.

Conclusion: Rules are there for a reason. In the last issue we learned in “The World View of Livestock Diseases”, that strong fences make good neighbors. When we are at the fair, those fences come down, we congregate with our animals and COMINGLE. It’s fun, it’s educa-tional, and hopefully it’s profitable. Fair Boards across the country are dedicated to assuring that animals arrive healthy and stay that way. They want you to bring home ribbons and awards, not infectious diseases!

HAVE FUn At tHE FAIR!

The livestock shows are now in full swing and most exhibitors go from one to another with market animals targeted to fit the judge’s preferences. When entering an animal in a market show, exhibitors know that ultimately, they are raising an animal whose endpoint is to be incorporated into the food chain at some point in time. That is why most judges not only evaluate live animals for structural soundness, balance and other visual traits, but they will also use indicators to do their best to estimate carcass attributes. For those fortunate enough to make the sale, and even luckier to place close to the very top of their class or higher, those animals are often automatically entered into a “carcass show”.

Following their respective sale, most carcass show entries are handled as a group. They are transported to either one of the participating universities or to a packing facil-ity to be harvested under the watchful eyes of the contest superintendents, show person-nel and above all, inspectors from either the Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) or Texas Meat Safety Assurance. After a 24-48 hour chill, the carcasses are evaluated for quality and quantity (cutability) attributes that are the driving factors in determining differences in carcass value. The data are then used by the judge to rank the carcasses based on the value-determining attributes. Show officials then release the data to the public. Although some exhibitors have a deep understanding of the numbers and terminology used in the meat industry, many look at them and then try to find someone to help interpret the results.

Beef Carcass Contests:Beef carcasses are ranked primarily on the basis of the USDA Quality Grade and USDA Yield Grade. Quality grade is based on two factors: (1) the maturity of the animal (evalu-ated by observing the skeleton and the lean color of the ribeye), and (2) the amount of marbling (intramuscular fat) observed within the ribeye muscle when the carcass is “ribbed” between the 12th and 13th ribs. The estimations are balanced on a grid provided by USDA Agri-cultural Marketing Service (AMS) to determine the quality grade of the carcass. Yield grade is determined by using measurements of fat thickness (opposite the ribeye), ribeye area (in.2), warm carcass weight and an estimate of the amount of kidney, pelvic and heart fat on the inside of the carcass (expressed as a per-centage of warm carcass weight). Those four values are incorporated into the official USDA formula for determining yield grade. Yield grade actually is a prediction of the percentage of boneless, closely trimmed retail cuts from the carcass without having to actually cut each one to determine the value.

Quality grade is the grade can typically affect

the value of beef carcasses most dramatically. Although market conditions continually change the relationship, it is safe to say that Prime and those carcasses determined to be in the upper end of Choice (average and high Choice – many times referred to as “top choice”) are more valuable due to the demand for their “middle meats” which include most of the major steak cuts. The difference in value between low Choice and Select is also im-portant economically and is typically referred to as “the spread” between Choice and Select. Any carcasses not meeting the minimum requirements for Select are usually heavily discounted by most packers, and are typically marketed as “No Roll” or un-graded beef.

USDA Yield Grade also is considered in determining value, but with typically less value influence unless the carcass is exces-sively fat or light muscled, which is usually not the case in show

animals. The “base” yield grade for most carcass value programs is a yield grade 3. Heavy monetary discounts are applied to those carcasses that are yield grade 4 or higher. Lower premiums are normally ap-plied to leaner, more muscular yield grades 1 and 2.

A quick look at LM_CT169, the 5-Area Weekly Weighted Average Direct Slaughter Cattle – Premiums and Discounts Report published by USDA Market News Service will give an indication of value determin-ing characteristics of beef carcasses. Heavy discounts are applied to carcasses over 1000 lbs., Standard or lower quality grade, yield grade 4 & higher, and dark cutting carcasses, just as they are discounted in beef carcass shows. Since carcass show steers tend to be leaner, there is also a requirement for them to have at least .25 inch of fat to deter “cold shortening”, a condition that occurs during chilling that will cause toughening.

After the data are collected and checked, the beef carcass judge will determine which carcass excels in producing the most valu-able carcass, then temper that with a visual evaluation to determine final ranking. Just like on hoof, the biggest carcass may not always win. Many of the certified programs have now included a maximum ribeye size requirement of 16.0 in.2 to deter excessively large ribeyes which are hard to utilize in the foodservice industry, so bigger is not always better when it comes to the beef industry.

Pork Carcass Contests:As in all meat animal species, pork carcasses are evaluated for lean quality and lean quantity. The animals in pork carcass con-tests are harvested and allowed to chill for a minimum of 24 hours prior to evaluation. The carcasses are “ribbed” between the 10th and 11th ribs to expose the loin eye muscle. Although there are a number of measure-ments made, some are used more directly to

Interpreting Carcass Show Results

determine overall carcass value, while others are taken tradition-ally and may be used to help break out very close rankings.

Pork quality is primarily assessed by visually evaluating the loin eye muscle. A firm, reddish-pink loin eye possessing some visible marbling is desirable. An all too common problem in high percentage muscle pork carcasses in carcass contests, and throughout the pork industry is a condition called pale, soft and exudative (PSE) pork. Muscle exhibiting this condition is visu-ally undesirable to consumers and has less desirable processing characteristics for meat processors; therefore, they are typically heavily discounted in pork carcass contests.

Pork carcasses exhibiting a minimum acceptable quality level are further evaluated for their cutability attributes. The equation commonly used to deter-mine the percentage of fat-free lean in a pork carcass uses 10th rib fat thickness, 10th rib loin eye area (in.2) and warm carcass weight. A few years ago, it was determined that leaner pork carcasses were contributing to a decline in an ever-more-valuable carcass primal – the belly. To deter this, a rule was developed that requires belly thickness to be at least 0.6 inches so that it can be used for bacon production.

In the pork packing industry, a very high percentage of pork carcasses are bought on a carcass basis by determining percent-age lean and balancing with carcass weight. Light and heavy carcasses produce cuts out of the range requested by retail and foodservice and are therefore heavily discounted. Different pack-ers have varying requirements for carcass weight, so a number of pork grids are evaluated annually to determine the minimum and maximum carcass weights that will be applied to the pork carcass shows.

After the data are collected and checked, the pork carcass judge will determine which carcass excels in producing the most valu-able carcass, then temper that with a visual evaluation to deter-mine final ranking.

lamb and Goat Carcass Contests:Lambs and goats are harvested and allowed to chill for a mini-mum of 24 hours. The carcasses then are allowed to chill for a minimum of 24 hours. The carcasses are “ribbed” between the 12th and 13th ribs to expose the ribeye muscle. Although there are official USDA standards for grading lamb carcasses, there are no official grades for goats. Since the two species are relatively simi-lar, the percent muscle equations applied to lamb are typically applied to goats as well.

Quality grades for lambs are determined using an estimation of

maturity and balancing with flank fat streaking and carcass con-formation. Almost all lamb carcasses grade either USDA Prime or Choice and there are no premiums reported for Prime versus Choice, so the minimum requirement for carcass show lamb car-casses is that they grade at least Choice.

Lamb and goat carcasses are evaluated for cutability (percentage boneless, closely trimmed retail cuts) using the same equation. The measurements evaluated for cutability are warm carcass weight, adjusted fat thickness at the 12th rib, body wall thickness (thickness of fat and muscle and bone five inches from the middle of the exposed vertebra), and ribeye area (in.2). The resulting estimated percentage of boneless, closely trimmed retail cuts (%BCTRC) is heavily used to determine final carcass ranking.

Both lamb and goat carcass also typically have a minimum and maximum carcass weight requirement in most carcass shows. The carcass weight limits (45 to 85 lbs. for lambs and 35 to 70 lbs. for goats) are set by evaluating carcass market news reports to determine points of carcass value/devaluation based upon market trends.

After the data are collected and checked, the lamb carcass judge will determine which one excels in producing the most valuable carcass, then temper that with a visual evaluation to determine final ranking.

Throughout all the carcass shows, the respective superintendent evaluates each carcass for any abnormal occurrences. As is the case with any packing plant, all carcasses are evaluated and trimmed of any foreign material that might have gotten on the carcass as well as any area that has experienced severe bruising. This may result in a carcass that would not be available for evalu-ation during the carcass show because those areas were critical to the overall evaluation. If however, there were evidence of tamper-ing with the animal, those findings would be turned over to show officials for them to handle at their discretion.

Obviously, the ultimate success of any market animal show would be for the grand champion live to also be the top-placing carcass, and that does happen from time-to-time. However, when one considers that all show animals are selected to be the “best of the best”, and that the final live ranking is dependant not only upon carcass characteristics, but also live traits, it is no wonder that this is not a common occurrence.

Carcass shows are a method by which we can tie youth market animal projects back to one of their intended purposes: education of the process by which we supply high-quality meat products to consumers. They allow students a unique window to obtain infor-mation on their project and determine whether it hit industry tar-gets or if it did not, why it did not. They should also be a constant reminder that although there are immeasurable opportunities for learning, ultimately, we are using a food project as the learning tool and anything done to the project should be tempered with that constant reminder.

Introducing...

The first Full Tank son to be placed

in our herd.

Sunset Blvd. is certainly the boar

that we have been waiting for. He is a

stout, big bodied boar who stands on

excellent bone and foot size. He can certainly

drive the Yorkshire breed to the right place

with his added rib shape and depth of

body. His shire, Full Tank, sired the $70,000

Full Dimension boar housed at Top Cut

Showpig Sires from the 2008 STC.

Look for more information on our website on the following sires:

RODEO DRIVE — Yorkshire (LFC7 GSG Golden Gate 130-9 x DBFF5 Not Guilty 46-9)
