Podcasts about Cattle

Liesa and Russell Priddy's JB Ranch was the winner of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association Environmental Stewardship Award for Region 2 in 2023. Most of us don't associate South Florida with cattle and predator conflicts. But the Priddys were the first to document confirmed panther kills of cattle in the region, and the growing panther population just north of the Everglades has caused local ranchers to begin taking stock of how to protect livestock where there are panthers in the pasture. Listen to learn about this unique environment surrounding the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge and the ups and downs of ranching and critical environmental stewardship between the swamp and the hyper-urbanized Florida coast.

This week we sit down with Nancy Dunn of Rolling D Ranch in Eclectic, Alabama to trace a legacy built on grit, family, and a lifelong love of Texas Longhorns. Nancy opens the gate to her program's history—how it started, what's shaped it over the years, and the values that still guide every pairing on the ranch today.We talk about her well-known cattle, including Dunn Lucky Dice, and the traits she insists on keeping front and center: correctness, longevity, and a calm, workable disposition. Nancy also shares timeless insight for both new and seasoned breeders—how to evaluate cattle with clear eyes, avoid common traps, keep learning from the community, and stay dedicated to the breed through the ups and downs. It's a conversation full of heart, hard-won lessons, and the kind of perspective you only earn by living the Longhorn life, day after day.Rolling D Ranch: https://www.rollingdranch.com/Send us a text From the Pasture with Hired Hand:Hired Hand Websites (@hiredhandwebsites): https://hiredhandsoftware.comHired Hand Live (@hiredhandlive): https://hiredhandlive.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiredhandwebsites/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HiredHandSoftwareTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hiredhandwebsitesNewsletter: https://www.hiredhandsoftware.com/resources/stay-informed

Beef prices are expected to continue climbing in the coming year as tight cattle supplies in the United States and abroad strain the global market, analysts said. U.S. cattle inventories remain near multi-decade lows following years of drought that forced ranchers to shrink herds. NAFB News ServiceSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This month, we got to speak with Chaz Yingling and Andrew Kettler about their forthcoming book: The Once and the Future Cow. The book's aim is to show an understudied history of the cow not just in the American West, but on the islands in the Caribbean. But recentering the cow also means paying attention not to the typical unilateral framing of human-nonhuman interaction as humans impacting cows, but instead to how cows themselves are agential actors that profoundly shaped their surroundings.   For more of Yingling and Kettler:   Yingling Website: https://www.chazyingling.com/ Kettler Email: smellhistory@gmail.com Kettler Academic Profile: https://andrewkettler.academia.edu/   ASLE EcoCast: If you have an idea for an episode, please submit your proposal here: https://forms.gle/Y1S1eP9yXxcNkgWHA   Twitter: @ASLE_EcoCast Lindsay Jolivette: @lin_jolivette Alex Tischer: @ak_tischer   If you're enjoying the show, please consider subscribing, sharing, and writing reviews on your favorite podcast platform(s)!   Episode recorded December 11, 2025 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0

Help shape the future of cattle health in California.

In the first episode of 2026, Emily and Brad kick off a New Year's “resolution” to record more episodes together and dive into one of their favorite themes: management. The conversation is sparked by a German case study Brad found that followed 10 German dairy herd managers (average ~600 cows; range 200–1,200) for three weeks, tracking their work minute-by-minute to see how managers spend time—and what actually drives herd performance.The key concept is “controlling activities,” defined as proactive checks and analysis (not just reacting and “putting out fires”). They break these into three categories: animal controls (pen walks, fresh/sick cow monitoring, reviewing sensor alerts), feeding controls (bunk/refusal checks, feed sampling, monitoring mixing and storage), and process controls (reviewing herd records, equipment checks, ventilation/manure systems, cleanliness).A big takeaway: herd managers spent much of their day on communication and logistics, while only about 15% of time went to controlling activities (animal ~9%, feeding ~1%, process ~5%). Yet the study found that performance wasn't linked to total hours worked, but to how much time was dedicated to these proactive controls. Farms where managers spent more time on controlling activities showed better outcomes, including lower mortality, lower somatic cell count, higher lifetime production, and reduced youngstock losses.They also highlight a concerning “disconnect” around feeding: managers often had minimal involvement in feed-related controls even though feed is a major cost and driver of health and production. The episode closes with practical guidance for any farm size: prioritize time intentionally, increase proactive controlling activities (even slightly), and ensure herd managers stay connected to the feeding process—setting the tone for a more efficient, resilient 2026.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they hear the top new year's resolutions for those of us that live at the end of dirt roads.  Plus record setting land and cattle prices from 2025, new additions to the program and where the price of retail beef ended the year all wrapped into this episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. New Year's Resolutions For Ranchers   We all need to have resolutions for the new year!  But what about the ranchers?  Here is our list for 2026: Thou shall finally return the borrowed farm equipment Thou shall keep better records, because apparently, a general sense of where the cows are doesn't count as inventory management. Thou shall reduce shouting by 50% while working cattle with the misses Thou shall check the air in the trailer tires before using it.   Thou shall confirm hand signals before backing up to any implement or trailer with the misses Thou shall make sure all ear tags will be legible and if I can't make them legible, I will assign the task to someone that can write legible.   Thou shall fill all fuel tanks on vehicles when they are down to ¼ tank. Thou shall not assume that everyone that helps sort cows knows exactly what I mean when I shout the black one when 253 of them are black.   Thou shall take the batteries out of the hot shot before working cattle of any kind.   Thou shall remember that everytime working with dogs, horses and animals of any kind at any time is a training opportunity and bad behavior is always rewarded with bad behavior. Thou shall realize that the neighbor is not out to “one up me on everything”.  If they want to get that new truck, let them and be happy for them.   Record Setting Land Prices In 2025 2025 was quite a year, depending on which side of the fence you were on per say.  Records being set in the beef arena of course.  Get this out.  Did you hear of the record $32,000 per acre land sale that took place in early December in Iowa?  Yeah, in Sioux County, near Orange City Iowa, 35.51 acres.  Brownfield's Brent Barnett interviewed Jim Rothermich, the vice president of Iowa Appraisal on the sale and the details.   Reference: https://www.brownfieldagnews.com/news/northwest-iowa-farmland-sells-for-32k-per-acre/   Record Setting Steer Prices The highest prices ever paid for 800–899 lb steers are concentrated entirely in the months of September and October, reflecting a historically strong fall market. Valentine Livestock Auction accounts for five of the top ten sales, underscoring its outsized role in setting record values in this weight class. Nebraska dominates the list overall, hosting eight of the ten highest-priced sales. Four sales reached or exceeded the $400.00 per hundredweight threshold, marking an unprecedented level for 8-weight steers. Pratt Livestock Auction stands as the only market from Kansas to appear among these records, while Hub City Livestock Auction is the sole representative from South Dakota, further highlighting the regional concentration of these historic prices.

Everybody has heard Gabe Browns row crop challenges that led him to shift to regenerative agriculture minimizing inputs and diversifying crop rotations. A story that I hadn't heard but wanted to was the progression of his mindset towards cattle production and his cow herd genetic decisions. We discuss that in detail in todays episode from his Gelbvieh/Angus genetics with winter calving to summer calving and pushing his genetics to match his context. We discuss succession and over-diversification of enterprises and much more!If you are looking to add somebody to your team to help with your farm or ranch numbers, check out John Haskell and his team at ⁠⁠⁠https://www.ranchrightllc.com/⁠⁠⁠.Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.pharocattle.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more information on how to put more fun and profit back into your ranching business! As always, check us out at Ranching Returns Podcast on Facebook and Instagram as well as at ⁠www.ranchingreturns.com⁠.For Ranching Returns shirts, hats, and sweatshirts check out https://farmfocused.com/ranching-returns-merch/

Sen. Deb Fischer Reintroduces HAULS Act To Improve Agriculture Transportation Safety U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.), a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, has reintroduced the Haulers of Agriculture and Livestock Safety (HAULS) Act, legislation aimed at strengthening the transportation system that supports America's farmers, ranchers, and agricultural supply chains. The HAULS Act addresses longstanding challenges faced by agricultural and livestock haulers, particularly those related to federal hours-of-service (HOS) regulations. By modernizing these rules, the bill seeks to improve safety, flexibility, and efficiency across the agriculture transportation industry. Key Provisions of the HAULS Act The legislation includes several critical updates designed to better reflect real-world agricultural operations: Expanded Hours-of-Service Exemptions The HAULS Act would eliminate the requirement that agricultural and livestock HOS exemptions apply only during state-designated planting and harvesting seasons, allowing haulers greater flexibility year-round. Clearer Definition of Agricultural Commodities The bill amends and clarifies the definition of “agricultural commodities” based on feedback from agriculture and livestock organizations, reducing confusion and improving regulatory consistency. Extended 150 Air-Mile HOS Exemption Building on a previous Fischer provision already signed into law, the HAULS Act authorizes a 150 air-mile exemption from HOS requirements on the destination side of a haul, giving agricultural commodity haulers more operational flexibility when delivering goods.
