How to create outlook signature

you hello everyone my name is Robert Geiss thank you for joining us during these tough times we we have a team have been have spent all your working hard to get to this point but sadly during these these times things are being done a little differently but I guess it's a good experience for us all to overcome our team consists of seven members coming from three different provinces Ontario Alberta and Saskatchewan we are a small team but we have overcome a lot of things this year that we were very proud of our herd vision that we've been working towards this our goal is to raise functional high-quality cattle to suit the needs of both the purebred and commercial breeders well advancing student learning and management our goals are to increase our weaning weights we have we plan to achieve this through genetic advancements also to increase our marketing by building connections to increase sales which we did by going to shows like a commission and bull Congress and also phoning potential buyers we also plan on improving the the genetics of our herd through our embryo and AI programs our SWOT analysis some of our strengths that we had is we had a very successful beef day well overcoming a lot of adversity because in the current situation that we are all in we also have team members that come from many different backgrounds which which helps make our team very diverse also we expanded our industry connections within the school and on a personal level of our team's weaknesses this year was that we did have a smaller team as we were all very busy along with being busy we wheat weird team with a lot of very strong personalities we also had a smaller sale this March which was harder to market our bulls and her heifers but it but it was a good challenge for us to have another thing that was one of our weaknesses as mentioned before is that we did have lower weaning weights some of the opportunities we have is our embryo and semen donations which help which helps expand our genetics we also gain a very strong marketing skills marketing or sales during these tough times which also gained us very good networking opportunities some of the threats that are that our team had was the the competition within industry also battling COBIT 19 with social distancing it made it difficult for us to host our sale with everything going on in the world there was also the worry of the markets crashing and the weather is always an issue good day my name is Jessica gunky and this year I had the pleasure of being the records in her tracks manager we will start off with a herd value and we currently have 37 count affairs which makes it the majority of our total herd value at one hundred twenty forty eight thousand our total herd value is two hundred and twenty three thousand seven hundred moving on to our herd inventory as of March 31st we have 38 cows 19 heavy calves 18 bull calves 13 yearling heifers one yearling bull and two herd bulls this brings our total herd to 91 animals for our gold analysis we'll start with the growth of RK ads our average reading weight of our Bulls was 703 pounds and our heifers was 664 pounds the industry standard is 23 percent of the dams weight so our average Kelley Ince 1632 pounds so this would bring our standard to 702 pounds moving on to our open cows this year we had 5 percent open rate and this is higher than the industry standard I only had to open cows are calving season which started on January 1st and is still in progress the reason why I took longer is because we had a couch didn't take to the embryo and took longer to rebreathe we had 76% of our cows calves in the first two cycles and we plan to have a 63 day breeding season shorten our calving season moving on toward a death rate that is at 8% this year this is above the 4% industry standard we lost what we had three sets of twins which even at our loss my name is Cody Kurtz and this year I had the opportunity to be the range and forge manager as well as the beef day manager in the summer 2019 we installed a sundog solar portable watering system on LCP 21 and fenced off the water sources and how in order to help rejuvenate the environment and increase production by rotational grazing the portable watering system allows us to utilize we would like to thank north saskatchewan watershed Alliance and Alice who helped us provide us with this portable watering system 2019 we graze 33 pairs on 320 rented acres from Marvin little for 152 days from June 1st till October 30th at the rate of a dollar 35 per head per day our total rent for our pairs on that pasture was six thousand seven hundred and seventy one dollars and sixty cents we also had two pairs and ate bread heifers we were grazing on LC b21 for a total of a hundred and sixteen days from June 1st till September 24th since the college owns this land some of these expenses come from an opportunity cost the rent for repairs was a dollar twenty per head per day for the hundred and sixteen days so it's totals up to two hundred and seventy eight dollars and forty cents and for the hackers this costed us 80 cents per head per day four hundred and sixteen days which costed seven hundred and forty two dollars and forty cents the total on LC p21 totaled up to one thousand and twenty and eighty cents when we add up both of our pasture expenses our total agrees and costs for 2019 for the purebred team was seven thousand seven hundred and ninety two dollars and forty cents you in the summer of 2020 we made a proposal that our team would try to remain in the same locations as it's very convenient for next year's team and the farm team to work alongside with the herd and to pick out a show string our estimated grazing costs for 2020 are seventy eight hundred dollars in mid-march Lakeland College was informed that we had to change our beef they sailed eunuch Ovid 19 and government restrictions on group gatherings this made us have to switch to an online sale we worked with alongside with the LMS and the sales staff in order to make this such as easy as possible we sold 13 balls which averaged forty three hundred and eighty five dollars-six pure bred heifers which averaged forty two hundred and sixty eight years $67 the nine commercial replacement heifers which averaged fifteen hundred and forty two dollars and the four breads which averaged 2050 our income for the sale was eighty-three thousand eight hundred and atotal expenses were ten thousand eight hundred and thirty one dollars our expenses divided between the catalogue sale pictures sale videos hats and our sales staff I would like to thank all the buyers across Western Canada and the sales staff who made this sale as success this will help us expand learning opportunities and knowledge for the future classes because it gives the next year's team the chance to continue the pure bred section and helps provide them with the supplies and feed for next shoe sale animals and a special thanks to the people on the slide who assisted with beef day we would sincerely like to thank all of our buyers who are listed on the slide without their support we would not be able to make this day possible hi my name is Jenna Wilson I've had the pleasure of being the show lead mixed farm manager this year in January our team exhibited tuples and two heifers at Canadian Bull Congress in Camrose Alberta it was an exciting day for our team is Oh a fever all 225g placed second in her class we enjoyed our timing cameras as it enabled us to personally connect and expose our animals to a lot of local farmers and ranchers our bull Congress expenses for entries were six hundred and thirty four dollars supplies $15 hotel two hundred and forty dollars food seventy dollars and fuel three hundred and fifty-five dollars this brought our total expenses to one thousand three hundred and fourteen dollars we believe in sitting at both Congress was very beneficial for a team as it helped us make new network connections and market our beef day animals our team had planned on exhibiting three heads at the Lakeland College little royal show but unfortunately due to Coba 19 it was canceled come the spring our herd will have produced an estimated 80 tons of manure the beef mix farm committee worked alongside the crop technology students and made a plan to spread all the manure from the beef herds on LC 20 as the soil test suggested it would be the best fit my name is Denver Bolden and I had the opportunity to be this year's public relations manager as well as the health and treatments manager this year when it came to marketing and advertising it shows we utilized cards science stall cards connections with an industry were built by using a booklet available at each show for producers to sign to be added to our mailing list at the beginning of year I made three goals to achieve to engage our audience advertise our beef day sale and gain a larger following I believe that if I achieve these goals by doing a giveaway at the recommendation of last year's team hosting the bull heifer sale videos and even with an online beef day sale utilization of our social media and our connections with industry we had a tremendous success and we're just shy of 1,500 likes on Facebook with over 200 news since mid years but you can like us on Facebook at Lakeland College SMF purebred beef unit these were two most engaged posts to the of the semester the first being our press release on the new format of our day sale June in komen 19 this reached just over 10,000 people with over 500 engagements in 61 shares then the second being the video of our lot 2008 lady Holly over Alta 87 G this reached just under six thousand people with 462 engagements 14 shares and 125 reactions moving to health and treatments semen testing palpations went very well this year all the heifers passed their palpation semen tests was successful with all but one bull passing one being deferred and being pulled from the sale due to structural issues for treatments the semester one calf was treated for an able infection one calf was treated after being injured by her dam three calves were treated after being stepped on one with a broken leg this is because in our cold stretch at the beginning of calving season we were forced to keep more calves then we would prefer in the barn at one time with their cows and just with the high volume of foot traffic in the barn it was kind of an unavoidable situation that we handled as best we could moving on one bull stifled and did not recover and one replacement heifers suddenly deceased in early December and we suspect due to choke hi I'm Luke Haggard and I'm this year's nutrition and genetics manager starting off with the genetic side of things recently we have a id8 of our half first and a group of cows on April 9th we a id8 heifers to Oklahoma and prowler which was heifer bull semen that was donated as well as on April 11th we a I'd 16 cows to present vibrant and renovation as well as we add two cows that had higher birth weights to Oklahoma and crowler as well as our Red Cow got a I to the Red Bull Benally on April 21st we'll be putting in 15 embryos 10 commercial into 10 commercial cows and 5 of our own and we look forward to working with commercial with the goal of one team and we also appreciate their support in driving our genetic diversity I would also like to thank our genetic donors starting off with our semen donors Boursin marketing from olds Alberta was repeatedly supported Lakeland College as well as two new donors shaofeng's Valley from North Dakota and boss Lake genetics from Stony Plain Alberta and we look forward to working with them in the future as well as our embryo donors poplar meadow from Houston BC lazy mcg from Brooks Alberta and Brooking Angus from Ravenel Saskatchewan who are all repeat donors and who have donated a generous number of embryos and we sincerely appreciate their donation moving on to the nutrition side of things and starting off with the females and more specifically the heifers I decided to display my information based on a date on a daily basis of what they consumed of each ingredient if I could draw your attention to the heifer supplement the 36:20 supplement and the 10% the reason both are listed as in December we were feeding the 10% and with our change in feed company we moved them onto the 36:20 supplement which is a higher protein supplement at 36% and that broader cost per head per day to a dollar 76 over to the cow side of things these cows were fed fed from the beginning of January through to March 30 first if I could draw your attention to the barley grain side of things the reason is three pounds is done is an average for a whole herd based off the idea that the pre calving ration did not include any barley and as they cab they got moved onto a ration that included barley to hopefully add energy and growth to the new calves they also received a 36:20 supplement as they started feed in January previous to that they're on a grazing program and we're receiving mineral and that broader cost per head per day to two dollars and 18 cents on to the both side of things this is very similarly done based off on a daily basis based off of what they consumed of each ingredient I'll draw your attention again to their supplement they received the 10% supplement throughout January December and on January they got moved on to the 3812 supplement which is a 38% supplement and we feel that that helped her with her average daily gain and they laid down a lot more muscle in the last 90 days and that broader cost per head per day to two dollars and 64 cents at mid years I did a nutrient analysis of what I predicted that they would get and this is what they actually received since December the ration that they received was 53% dry matter of that 78% was total digestible nutrients that her energy of maintenance was sitting at 0.85 mega Cal's per pound and energy of gain is at zero point five six Megan Cal's four pound our protein is up one and a half percent than what I predicted because we used the new supplement that is four times more contains four times more protein but we feel it benefited the Bulls greatly in the last 90 days and allowed them to gain weight that we otherwise wouldn't have been able to our calcium is sitting at 0.62% and our phosphorus was at 0.35 percent make our calcium to phosphorus ratio one point eight which is what Jana our goal of to our dry matter intake as a percent of body weight as sitting at 2.2 percent the reason we lowered it from 2.5 percent is because of the consumption of the Bulls it lowered as we approach beef day so what we decide to do is lower the total batch size but still maintain the ingredients needed to meet energy protein and nutrient requirements for the Bulls moving on to the two graphs one represents what we were feeding on average on as fed versus a dry matter drawing your attention to the as fed side you'll notice that our bowls are consuming 59 percent silage in that ration if you add hay to that they're eating 67% of the ration and forage well our grain is only sitting at 29 percent on a dry matter basis they were consuming 25 pounds of dry matter and of that 48 and a half percent of that was barley grain while silage dropped to just over 30 percent that is because of the absence of moisture and in that fact that it is not included in that you'll also notice on the dry matter basis the increase in the supplement as it jumps from 4 percent up to thirteen point seven is more prominent on a dry matter basis and you can see how much more of an effect it has all in all we are very happy without where the Bulls ended up in terms of being a consistent group and our rate of game we were very happy with we would like to thank Tom McNeely for helping us achieve our goals hi my name is hailey Fisher and I had the honor of being this year's Finance Manager for the purebred team when looking at the cost production on our 13 bulls that we sold at beef today we had a profit of just over $2,200 per bull we spent about $1,400 in feed on each bull calf and down for the year to get it ready for beef day as a purebred operation holds their own sail our marketing costs are higher on a per head basis overall our sail bowls we made a profit of twenty thousand six hundred and fifty three dollars as you can see you on this breakdown of our annual income the majority is associated to income from our beef day sale this year our call sales only came to about 60% of what was previously projected as we chose to retain some heifers and Salamis breads next year our total income for this fiscal year is one hundred thousand four hundred and forty nine dollars and 63 cents this shows our expenses are up to date with all livestock operations feed cost at high six highest expense to look at and as you can see we spent just over twenty seven thousand dollars which was only actually about seventy eight percent of what was previously projected from there is our livestock purchases that go along with our embryo contract that we have with the commercial team followed by costs associated with beef day our overall expenses came to eighty eight thousand two hundred ninety nine dollars and sixty cents which brings us a net income of twelve thousand one hundred fifty dollars this is a clear image of our income this year compared to what was previously projected our call sales came in lower as we retained some of the heifers for next year's team to sell his breads income from our beef day sale came in ten percent and higher than projected which we were very pleased with as we sold less bowls this year than what was projected but we also sold more replacement heifers and thanks to a very successful sale we were very proud last year's team projected us to have a higher mature bullit income as they projected us to sell one of our herd bowls top done although this year's team we decided to not sell him and actually retain him for another year but to bring back some of the lost income we decided to rent him to both the commercial and research units for breeding season this is a breakdown of our expenses compared to what was previously budgeted for we spent 40% less on our show expenses 10% less on our vet and medical expenses and 20% less on her feet than what was previously projected we spend a lot more on registration than what was previously projected due to some complications this year so to account for any challenges next year's team a have we made that budget a little bit higher in hopes to solve any of those issues our other costs came in higher than previously projected as last year's team didn't include the cost of purchasing a creep feeder there was purchased last spring and used for our bowls over last summer overall what we spent 95% of the projected budget for expenses this year some of the recommendations that we have for next year's team is to make sure that you build a strong team bond off the start of the year so that makes for a good first semester also to continue and build on to the AI program and maintain a strict calling criteria to improve the herd quality also build a strong industry connection and maintain the ones that you have to help with all of your marketing needs and also help but and also to help expand the genetic pool to continue using the ambriel program we would like to send out a huge thank you to everyone that has helped us out throughout the year and that has made this year such as such a success a huge thank you goes out to New Holland Agriculture Austin Partington Josie van Lent Jeff Brown and Anthony Robertson Denise Martin Peter Wilkinson and to all of the buyers and the donors that have helped us out so far if you have any questions please use the comment form and we will gladly get back to you you
