1 EBLEX Report: Analysis of Breed of Dam for cattle recorded with BCMS Introduction Samuel Boon, EBLEX, May 2014 (Version 1) The breed makeup of the nation s suckler cows influences not just the beef produced and sold to consumers, but also the productivity and ultimately profitability of those farming systems in which cattle are born and reared. EBLEX asked the British Cattle Movement Service (BCMS) for a breakdown of the dams of calves recorded on the database on the basis of their breed. BCMS is part of the Rural Payments Agency (RPA) It is recognised that an analysis of this type of farmer derived data has some limitations. Where crossbreeding arises there is a tendency for the most valuable breed to be reported on the passport. This approach would favour the reporting of certain beef breeds which may only account for 50% of the genetic makeup of the suckler cow. In the reporting of dairy breeds similar bias may arise. However, this is a large dataset and for the most part recording protocols have remained consistent over time so relative change over the last decade is still relevant to those interested in assessing which breeds and crosses are influencing the UK beef supply. Methodology BCMS data relates to passport applications received for live and dead animals born in Great Britain. Imported cattle are excluded from the data. Cows producing twins or calving twice within the year will be counted more than once. BCMS report 239 different breed codes. It is understood that these codes/breed types are determined by Breed Societies. These codes were condensed and cleaned for ease of analysis; with each breed allocating to a Breed Category. Numerically small breeds with less than 500 records over 10 years were assigned to as were categories such as unknown or crossbred beef. Each breed can be reported to BCMS as either a pure animal or crossbred. This data is reported separately, but for the purposes of this report the pure and crossbred records are combined for to give the overall breed numbers reported. The importance of black and white dairy genetics is recognised and to provide as much clarity as possible Holstein, Friesian and Holstein-Friesian breed numbers are listed separately. Assumptions were also made regarding animals coded as Devon (reported here as Red Ruby Devon) and Shorthorn (reported here as Beef Shorthorn).
2 Results A point of clarification: The charts that follow report the number of dam records although technically what they report is a deduction about the number of dams based on the number of calves that were reported to BCMS. The total number of records has fallen from 2.95/annum to 2.56/annum million records from 2003 to 2013 with the biggest fall observed in the number of dairy records between 2002 and Dairy breeds Due to the numerical importance of the Friesian, Holstein and Holstein Friesian each strain is collated separately in this dataset. Since 2002 there has been a large reduction in the number of cows recorded as Friesian and an increase in those recorded as Holstein Friesian. It is noted that some changes have arisen in the naming of breeds on BCMS differences observed in the use of the breed codes for Friesian, British Friesian and British Friesian x for example. It is not clear whether this change represents a true change in breed use or an over representation of Friesian genetics in the recording of cattle in 2002.
3 Figure 3 shows the change in the number of dairy cows belonging to the numerically smaller dairy breeds with significant increases in the representation of the Jersey, Swedish Red and Montbeliarde breeds.
4 This change is largely driven through crossbreeding, as can be seen in Table 1. Large increases can be seen in the number of Jersey cross, Montbeliarde cross and Swedish Red cross dams relative to the growth in dams deemed to be purebred. Table 1. Breakdown for some numerically smaller dairy breeds into pure and cross Ayrshire Cross Ayrshire Pure Brown Swiss Cross Brown Swiss Pure Jersey Cross Jersey Pure MRI Cross MRI Pure Montbeliarde Cross Montbeliarde Pure Swedish Red Cross Swedish Red Pure Even if the most influential crossbred dairy dam, the Holstein Friesian, is excluded from the count of crossbred dairy dams, the remaining records show that the total number of dairy breed dams that are recorded as crossbred with BCMS has doubled over the last ten years.
5 -Dairy breeds Amongst those non-dairy breed cows recorded as having produced calves on the BCMS database, approximately 75% are crossbred and 25% purebred. These proportions have hardly changed over time. The Limousin remains numerically the most important non-dairy breed dam; maternal breeds like the Simmental and Hereford have declined as has the Charolais; numbers of Aberdeen Angus and British Blue cows have increased. The accompanying charts show the change in numbers reported for breeds with >15,000 records per annum (Figure 4) and between 2,000-15,000 records per year (Figure 5).
6 Table 2 Shows those breeds that have shown the biggest proportional increase or decrease over time. When interpreting these charts it should be noted that unknown breed has reduced from >43,000 records to <3,000 records so some of the growth observed will relate to an improvement in the identification of dam breeds. During these two time periods the total number of records fell by 6%. The fastest growing breed is clearly the Stabiliser albeit from a numerically small base. Many of the native breeds have either risen in number or are now more accurately recorded on the database, whilst some of the numerically small European breeds seem to have reduced in number. Significant falls in numerically important breeds are noted in the number of Charolais, Hereford and Simmental breeds.

Some of the strains of breed on the RBST list can t be identified in this dataset including original population Lincoln Red and Hereford. For those breeds where data is available (and the Kerry a rare Irish breed) data is provided in Figure 5. The Whitebred Shorthorn (a category which includes Whitebred Shorthorn crosses) seems reasonably buoyant considering their Critical less than 150 cows status. However on closer inspection the data is heavily influenced by crossbred cattle, probably the Blue Grey a cross with the Galloway. There were 3084 Whitebred Shorthorn cross dams reported in 2012, but only 289 purebred cows. Interestingly Blue Grey is also Breed category on BCMS in its own right. The decline in Shetland numbers would be an obvious area for concern.
8 Summary Whilst it is recognised that there are limitations in the allocation of breed on the basis outlined here, this data provides a useful snapshot of the genetics used within the British beef industry. Within the dairy sector Holstein-Friesian genetics still have a dominant role, but over the last decade there has been an increasing amount of crossbreeding with non-black and white genetics. Within the beef sector the Limousin has remained the dominant beef breed used to breed suckler cows Aberdeen Angus genetics have overtaken Simmental genetics to be the next most widely recorded breed of cow being kept. The fall in the influence of the Hereford and the rise in the use of the British Blue are also noteworthy. Amongst the numerically smaller breeds, the Stabiliser has shown the fastest increase in growth over the last 10 years. Acknowledgments This work would not have been possible without the assistance of the British Cattle Movement Service (BCMS). Debbie Butcher in the AHDB Market Intelligence Team and Mary Vickers, EBLEX have also provided their technical expertise.
