2 Greetings Cattlemen: Rippe Gelbvieh has continued to assemble a cow herd that is balanced in ALL traits that are economically important to our customers commercial cattlemen. At Rippe Gelbvieh, we would like to have the opportunity to put our genetics and crossbreeding program to work on your operation. We have a complete lineup of Balancer and purebred bulls that have enough genetic variation to compliment your cow herd and allow you to take full advantage of the free lunch that heterosis and hybrid vigor offer. I feel we are doing more from a genetic selection and testing standpoint than the majority of seedstock operations. I believe we are separating ourselves from other seedstock operations in two main areas. The first is carcass data. Most operations ultrasound scan or DNA their bulls, but how many scan their bulls, scan their heifers, and receive individual carcass data on all of their steers? In addition, we try and receive data from a few of our customers cattle each year to measure our success from a carcass standpoint. We feed cattle throughout the year. A lot of people just talk about it. The second area is measuring cow size and efficiency. Each cow is weighed every fall when we pregnancy check. Later, this is compared to the weaning weight of her calf to calculate percent body weight weaned of each cow. We also track the essentials in a cow like structure and udder scores. This year we included all of this data in the catalog. It is our hope that you find the more information we track valuable. It is important for us at Rippe Gelbvieh to track our cow herd and our bulls so that we can make genetic progress. Be sure to check our website, as the sale draws near. We will be posting additional information including the supplement sheet and videos of the bulls. We encourage each of you to visit us prior to the sale. These visits allow us a lot more time to understand your program s needs and wants so we can better assist you in selecting your new herdsire. As always, we look forward to visiting with past customers and making new ones. Allow our program to help maximize the profitability of your cow herd.

4 Rippe Gelbvieh Bull Guarantee: Our # goal is customer satisfaction. Rippe Gelbvieh takes 00% responsibility on every bull purchased from our sale until the bull is delivered to your ranch. If there is any problem with the bull upon delivery or at our place we will cover the cost completely and make sure you are satisfied. If you experience a problem with disposition or structural soundness soon after you receive your purchase, Rippe Gelbvieh will replace the bull with similar quality, take the bull back and offer credit on next year s sale, or give you a full refund of your money. If you experience abnormal calving difficulty where the herdsire is at fault we demand that the bull be sold for slaughter and a full refund applied to a replacement bull of the buyer s choice. First Season Death and Injury Warranty: Rippe Gelbvieh has offered to share this cost with their customers. Our program will allow us to keep our customers satisfied and allow both parties to be satisfied with everyone sharing in the cost. Coverage/Limitations: The coverage of this warranty is for the first breeding season or for the first 90 days after the bull is turned out, unless other arrangements are made. This warranty is good for death and all loss-of-use injuries. The warranty is void if this is caused by negligence or mistreatment of the bull. Replacement value will be the actual purchase cost of the Rippe Gelbvieh bulls covered minus any salvage value or other compensation received by the customer. Claims: All claims must be reported to Rippe Gelbvieh within hours of discovery and must be examined by a licensed veterinarian. Injured: If the injury is not permanent and can be returned to service, Rippe Gelbvieh will work with you to supply a replacement bull to use, at no cost, until the original bull can be returned to service. If the injury is permanent, Rippe Gelbvieh will supply a bull to finish out the season. At the end of the breeding season the customer can choose to keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Rippe Gelbvieh and receive credit on next year s sale. The credit will equal the purchase price of the bull minus any salvage value from the original bull. Death: When a Rippe Gelbvieh bull dies between the dates outlined above Rippe Gelbvieh will supply another bull to finish out the breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can either keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or receive credit on next year s sale. The credit will equal the purchase price of the bull minus any compensation received by an insurance company. Cost: Cost for the death and injury warranty will be 5% of purchase price, due at time of purchase. We feel that this is a reasonable cost where we can all share in the cost of a loss in a bull during the first breeding season. If a customer chooses not to cover their animal against death or injury, they assume all risk associated with the bull once it leaves our place.

5 American Gelbvieh Association Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) Expected progeny differences (EPDs) can be used to predict the average performance of a bull s offspring compared to other calves in their contemporary group (a contemporary group being calves that were born in the same calving season, in the same year, herd, sex, and were managed similarly). EPDs are measured in the units of the trait, and show the differences in performance between animals. For example, if a bull has a weaning weight EPD of 80, and another bull in the same herd has a weaning weight EPD of 70, then bull A s calves would be expected to be 0 pounds heavier at weaning than those of bull B. It is important to remember that this number is just a prediction of performance. Actual performance depends on many factors such as environment, management, etc. This being said, an EPD is by far the most reliable indicator of an animal s genetic merit due to the amount of information incorporated into the calculation. The American Gelbvieh Association uses all available information to predict an animal s EPD. This information includes: individual performance, pedigree, progeny and grand progeny performance, plus available genomic information. All this information is combined into one easy to use number that helps breeders make genetic improvement in their herd. EPD Definitions Listed below are the definitions of American Gelbvieh Association EPDs and the units in which they are published. The EPDs with an asterisk (*) next to the name are available to members only. Maternal traits Calving ease direct (): Percent of unassisted births of a bull s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd. Milk (): The genetic ability of a sire s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight. Calving ease maternal (): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire s first-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers. Stayability (): Predicts the genetic difference, in terms of percent probability, that a bull s daughters will stay productive within a herd to at least six year of age. The stayability EPD is one of the best measures currently available to compare a bull s ability to produce females with reproductive longevity. Growth traits Birth weight (): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf. Weaning weight (): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 5 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning. earling weight (): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 65 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling. Carcass traits ield grade (): Differences in yield grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Smaller values suggest that progeny will have a better lean to fat ratio. Carcass weight (): Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint. Ribeye area (): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the th and th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable. Marbling (): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units. Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass quality grades. What is an Index? Indexes are tools that allow you to select for several EPDs at once, making selections more efficient than selecting on one trait at a time. Indexes weigh traits based on their importance to a producer s bottom line by using a trait s economic and genetic value. Indexes are a good way to put selection emphasis on traits that are economically relevant. Feeder profit index (): An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on grade and yield. Well ranking sires for have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease.

6 Gelbvieh and Balancer Breed Average EPDS (For non-parent animals, born on or after Jan., 5) TM P PG DMI $Cow EPI GV BA The American Gelbvieh Association (AGA) has released genomic-enhanced EPDs with the fall international cattle evaluation. Genomicenhanced EPDs (GE EPDs) combine pedigree, individual performance and genomic information to save time and money, reduce risk, and accelerate the rate of genetic progress. GE EPDs provide more precise EPDs based on a combination of both phenotype and DNA. One major benefit of these EPDs is risk reduction through increased accuracies. These increased accuracies save time when assessing young breeding stock as well as deliver commercial customer confidence when buying seedstock. erd improvement is accelerated when breeders can more accurately identify young individuals with the best genetics. GE EPDs also give the chance to collect data on economically important traits, which are expensive or difficult to measure. The information from the genomic data can be as informative as a bull's first calf crop or a cow's lifetime production record. Since the genomic data is incorporated directly into the EPDs, cattle producers will not have to learn how to interpret the new data. Development of GE EPDs for Gelbvieh and Balancer animals has been in progress at the AGA since, starting with the Genomic Pioneers project. This project helped to build a diverse panel of Gelbvieh and Balancer genetics to be the foundation genetics for the calculation of the GE EPDs. "The AGA has been working closely with the scientific community over the past couple years to build the training population for developing GE EPDs for the Gelbvieh breed," says Susan Willmon, director of breed improvement at the AGA. "Implementing genomic-enhanced EPDs is a high-priority goal in the AGA's strategic plan and we are excited to be able to offer this tool to our breeders and their commercial customers." EPDs that are genomically-enhanced will show up on the new American Gelbvieh Association Registry Service as highlighted in yellow. All animals with these enhanced EPDs will also have the AGA GE EPDs logo on their registration certificate. Rippe Gelbvieh Balancer and Gelbvieh Bull Sale: Black Balancer Bulls...s -7 Black Purebred Bulls...s 7-79 Red Balancer Bulls... s 80-0 Registered eifers... 0 Commercial eifers... s 0-08 ET Bulls: The ET bulls are raised by a surrogate mother. Therefore, the bulls actual birth weight and weaning weight are not a representation of the bulls genetics. Consequently, we have chosen not to provide this information as it is inaccurate. EPDs do a much better job of showing the genetic value of these bulls. If you would like to see the actual information on an ET bull please call before the sale. Semen Interest: Rippe Gelbvieh will retain / semen and certificate interest on every bull in the catalog unless otherwise noted. This will only affect a very small portion of the bulls we sell. If we decide to collect a bull for our in herd use, it will be at our expense and your convenience. Videos of the Bulls: ou will notice there are not many pictures of the bulls in the catalog. This is because we decided to video each and every bull and all the videos are on our website at We did this because we take great pride in the structure of our bull lineup and this allows buyers to evaluate before they come to our sale. Genetic Defects: Since we have mapped the beef genome it will allow us to make considerable genetic progress. One thing we have learned is certain animals have genetic defects and we can now test for them. We have worked very hard and have tested every animal on our place that is a potential carrier for a genetic defect. Some animals we have moved to our commercial herd if they were found to be a carrier, while we felt others were still exceptional genetically and we decided to breed around the defect. At Rippe Gelbvieh it is our goal to overtime eliminate any defects while still making genetic progress and we have tested every bull that is a potential carrier and we will be very upfront with every customer on defects in the future. Please call Dustin if you have any questions on this topic. Dustin & Kayden 6 RIPPE GELBVIE

7 Black Balancer 55B We have 0 fall balancer bulls for this year. Our plan is to continue to increase the number of fall and two year old bulls in the future. Our fall herd has grown to about 70 cows. It has fit into our operation nicely and we are doing ET, AI, and utilizing our top bulls a second time in our fall program. After weaning we don t push this set of bulls as they are either kicked out on some grass or simply put in the lot to gain.5#/hd/day. The advantage is you can turn these bulls out with a larger number of cows compared to a yearling. Our Black Balancer pen is very deep in quality. ou will notice the majority of the bull are in the top of the breed for Feeder Profit Index. ou will also notice we track cow size and % body weight weaned. Calving Ease is bred throughout this pen. Come take a look at these bulls prior to the sale and we can assist you in sorting through them. et Black omo Polled Reg# AMGV569 DOB: 8// BA8 DVA SCOUT 55 VRT LAZ TV WATCMAN W0 VRT LAZ TV MS PETERBLT T9 CONNEAL FRONT PAGE 08 DBRG MISS FRONT PAGE 80U DBRG MISS CC 55R : 9 Adj. : > AOD: 6 Dam Wt: 9 %W: 9.% Udder: / Doc: Stout made beef bull that excels from birth to yearling EPD spread.
