2 Effertz EZ Ranch RANCH Focus on Efficiency Sale Neil & Jan Effertz & Family Hwy 1804 N. Bismarck, ND Cell Welcome! Sometimes it s hard to focus. Always, it s hard to change. Therefore it is always hard to focus on changing. When your cattle enterprise is not profi table you have two choices do nothing and stay the same or change what you are doing or how you are doing it. That s the hardest option but the only one that works! We all wish for some things to be different the weather, the government, the markets. Truth is none of these things are under our control. The only thing under our control is us, what we do, when we do it and how we do it all the things that human nature makes hardest to change. By defi nition, if you want things to be different, you must change. The boys went fi shing. As the ad on page 23 says, Change is hard cashing bigger checks isn t. The cattle selling in this Focus on Effi ciency Sale will help you moderate your cow size, increase the fl eshing ability of your replacements and lower per-head maintenance costs. The best recommendation you can give your commercial cattlemen friends is to use fullblood Aberdeen and Moderator bulls on their fi rstcalf heifers and eliminate all calving issues. Then, keep the Moderator cross heifers as replacements to take 300 pounds off mature cow size, thereby increasing carrying capacity and increasing pounds of beef weaned per acre. The NDSU Dickinson Research Center has done it by 37% more weaning weight per acre out of Moderator-cross calves. and the girls enjoyed The Merc. This has been another special year for our customers. A heifer we bred, EZ Hottie s Girl 46D, was the winningest heifer in America and topped the 2018 National Sale in Denver at $22,000 for Dalton Bane in Illinois. We are offering maybe the best set of Moderator and fullblood Aberdeen bulls we ve ever had in our sale. They are ultrasound evaluated for carcass traits, semen tested and ready to breed cows or heifers. We are also offering a great set of fullblood females and some tremendous Moderators, including the pick of our National Champion Pen of Moderator Heifer Calves. She said, Yes! Our adventurers, Karl and Steph, got engaged in the wilderness of the Enchanted Valley in the Pacifi c Northwest last summer congratulations!! Welcome to North Dakota. Don t hesitate to call us if there is anything we can do to make your trip more memorable. Thank you for your interest in our program. Sincerely, Neil and Jan Effertz

BREEDERS SEMINAR We hope you can join us for an afternoon of interesting topics of particular interest to Aberdeen breeders, addressed by engaging experts in their fi eld. It s a great time to network with fellow cattlemen and enjoy supper. Please join us! Jerry Doan will speak on the Top Ten Ways to Increase Profi tability. Jerry is a fourth-generation rancher from McKenzie, ND. He and his wife Renae operate Black Leg Ranch along with their sons Jeremy, Jay, and Jayce Doan. Their daughter Shanda is also is involved. The ranch was homesteaded in 1882 by Jerry s great grandfather in what was then Dakota Territory. He has used Aberdeen and Aberdeen Moderator bulls to bring his cow size down and lower his maintenance costs and increase his stocking rate. He also has increased his ranch s emphasis on soil health, in part to increase the land s productivity and generate more income from it. Expanded use of cover crops is one of the tools used by the Doans. The Doans have a cow/calf operation so making the land more productive and supporting more livestock on it is a consideration, too. They are also involved in custom-grazing, or selling our grass to other cattle producers, as Jerry puts it. They use holistic management to operate their ranch, regenerating the natural resources and allowing wildlife to fl ourish. They have made huge strides in improving the soil health of their cropland and native rangeland while improving the bottom line and quality of life for their family 6:00 P.M.
