  • Relevant

    As a rancher who recently started selling program calves to 44 Farms for the Walmart beef supply chain. I found the two part series informative, relevant, and helpful. I appreciate the weather report and the snipbit of other information from the producer in every episode. If you want to know the latest and greatest in ranching, listen to this podcast.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 252: Are You Managing the Market… or Is It Managing You? w/ Abby Greiman
Q: What do you see as the biggest gaps in producers' risk management today?
Producers often want to hit the highs instead of following a disciplined plan; many lack defined goals and a clear understanding of costs and breakevens, which makes it hard to implement a coherent risk-management strategy.
Ep 253: Three Ranchers. One Question. $50,000 to Invest.
Q: If you had $50,000 to invest today, where would it go and why?
Zach prioritizes upgrading cattle by buying open heifers that can be bred and sold, aiming for solid ROI within a few months and avoiding overpaying for mature cows. Dallas focuses on infrastructure—water and fencing—to improve grazing efficiency and reduce future labor costs. Paul emphasizes long-lived capital improvements on the land and water systems, prioritizing projects that enhance reliability and reduce future risk, especially on leased ground.
Ep 251: Keeping Ranchers on the Land: The Mission of the Noble Research Institute w/ Steven Rhines
Q: How does the Institute approach collaboration and partnerships?
They work with universities, nonprofits, and industry groups to extend education, build centers for transition and land stewardship, and create awards to recognize standout producers.
Ep 251: Keeping Ranchers on the Land: The Mission of the Noble Research Institute w/ Steven Rhines
Q: How did the Noble Research Institute originate and evolve its mission over time?
It began with Lloyd Noble and the Dust Bowl era's push to repair soil and sustain agricultural communities, evolving from a general science and education focus to a nationwide, practical education model centered on soil health, grazing management, and farmer prosperity.
Ep 250: Eminent Domain: What Landowners Need to Know w/ Tiffany Dowell Lashmet
Q: So what rights do you actually have when it comes to eminent domain?
The government can take private property for public use if they pay you just compensation; landowners don't have the power to simply block projects by saying no, but there are procedural opportunities to object or intervene depending on the project and state law.
