They have been a long time member of theWHA and have contributed a lot to the success of ourassociation.If you attended the 2015 National in Denver, you couldfelt the excitement in the Hereford breed, which gave you ashot of Hereford enthusiasm energy. The stands were fullof people watching the bull, heifer and pen shows. Therewere a total of 730 Herefords exhibited during the three
days of shows, which is an increase of 98 over 2014. The National Hereford salegrossed over $1,100,000 and averaged $29,872 per lot.

The Wisconsin Review Spring 20154
Minute with the MeentsWhat is the VISION of your Herefordherd in 2020? The breeding decisionsthat you make in the spring of 2015 willbe of major impact to the heart of yourherd in 2020. The cows bred thisspring will calf in 2016. The heifersyou retain will be four year olds (theheart of you herd) in 2020.Are you going to mate your cows thesame as you have done for the pastdecade? For example: Are you going touse your same old herd bull one moreyear? Are you going to breed your cowsto your favorite bull from Denver’sNational Western? Are you going to AI
to an EPD Genetic outreach numbered bull?Well, here is an idea. Do a 2020 vision! Where do you think
the Hereford industry is going to be in the year 2020? Prepare aplan to improve your cows by mating them to bulls that will getyou closer to your 2020 final vision.Last September, the American Hereford Association hosted a
Hereford Genetic Summit titled “Get on Board, Navigate YourFuture.” I think that relates to a 2020 vision. You, as Herefordbreeders are challenged to focus on your customer’s needs as youembrace technology. As a breeder take time to understandtomorrow’s consumers. This means evaluating what yourcustomers want from your breeding program, and the largerpicture of what consumers of red meat are going to demand.Take advantage of all the new technologies. First, if you have
not used artificial insemination, do so. Second, if your mainmarket is selling females, consider In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)with sexed heifer semen. Third, if you are purchasing a new herdsire, make sure he has a Genomic Enhanced EPD profile.There are two areas that I’ve seen and heard that the Hereford
breed needs to improve by 2020. Please consider working onthese in your herd. One, continue to watch birth weight.Hereford breeders have made great strides in this area the pastdecade, but there is still room for more improvement. Secondly,increase intramuscular fat (Marbling Scores). Consumersdemand it, packers are paying for it, and Hereford cattle need toimprove IMF.The beef cattle market and the Hereford business has been
great for several years now. We have seen lifetime record prices.I truly believe that there will be several more very good yearsahead for seedstock producer, and a cow calf operator. A goodcowboy and business man shared with me that when prices arehigh people get complacent, and when prices decline peoplepanic.If you have a VISION, a plan, a mission you will not have to
panic. You will be prepared in 2020 to SEE CLEAR!
Remember to make your cattle better today because you have tomarket them tomorrow!
