Host Brad Heins welcomes Becca Weir, a Minnesota native and newly appointed assistant professor of agricultural economics at Penn State. Growing up on a dairy farm near Sauk Centre, Rebecca developed a passion for applying economics to dairy management decisions.In this episode, she shares findings from her University of Minnesota research with Jolene Hadrich, which connected genetic selection (sire Net Merit) with farm-level profitability using data from 2012–2018 Minnesota dairy herds.Key insights:A $100 increase in sire Net Merit was linked to roughly $12,000 more in net farm income—about $87 per cow, higher than expected.The positive relationship held across small, medium, and large herds, showing that investing in genetics pays off for all farm sizes.Traits related to longevity and health—such as livability and milk fever resistance—were the most consistent contributors to profitability.Selecting based on the Net Merit index is more effective than focusing on single traits.Genetics explained about 3% of profitability variation, a small but meaningful share alongside market conditions, management, and input costs.Rebecca also discusses her new role at Penn State, where she'll continue exploring dairy farm management, risk management, and programs like Dairy Margin Coverage to help producers improve economic resilience.Brad closes by reminding listeners that genetics are just one piece of the profitability puzzle—but an important one that can deliver measurable returns for dairy farmers.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

USDA'S Plan To Rebuild The Nation's Beef Cow Herd The USDA is developing a plan to rebuild the nation's historically low beef cattle herd but will not produce direct payments to producers, according to Secretary Brooke Rollins.  Rollins said “We have no current plants to offer any payment to beef producers.  The government getting involved can completely distort the markets.  No plan is even under consideration to insert ourselves through payments into the beef cattle industry.”  Unquote.  Instead, USDA's strategy will emphasize expanding access to working lands and developing risk-mitigation tools.  Rollins said more details will be released in mid-October. Justin Tupper, Owner/Operator of St. Onge Livestock in St. Onge, South Dakota and President of the U.S. Cattlemen's Association shares his insight on retaining heifers vs. selling heifers and what producers need to look for in the year(s) to come.   Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Justin Tupper – St. Onge Livestock, U.S. Cattlemen's Association https://uscattlemen.org/ https://www.stongelivestock.com/ Follow on Facebook: @USCattlemens Follow on Facebook: @StOngeLivestock Mark Vanzee – Livestock, Equine, & Auction Time Expert https://www.auctiontime.com/ https://www.livestockmarket.com/ https://www.equinemarket.com/ Follow on Facebook: @LivestockMkt | @EquineMkt | @AuctionTime Kirk Donsbach – Financial Analyst at StoneX https://www.stonex.com/ Follow on Facebook: @StoneXGroupInc Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Cattle Anthrax In North Dakota & USDA Farm Expenses More Anthrax In North Dakota Last weekend, the state of North Dakota confirmed its second case of anthrax this year in a beef cattle herd in Stark County, according to the state veterinarian's office. North Dakota State Veterinarian Dr. Ethan Andress urged producers in counties with past cases to consult veterinarians about vaccination and to be alert for unusual livestock deaths. He emphasized that effective vaccines are available but require more than a week to build immunity, with boosters needed annually for continued protection. North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring noted that while anthrax occurs most often in northeastern, southeastern, and south-central North Dakota, it has been detected across nearly every part of the state. A few cases are typically reported each year, though some outbreaks have been much larger, such as in 2005 when more than 500 livestock deaths were confirmed.   REFERENCES: https://www.ksjbam.com/2025/09/29/another-case-of-anthrax-confirmed-in-north-dakota/ https://www.rrfn.com/2025/09/29/more-anthrax-in-nd/ USDA Addresses Farm Expenses Earlier in the week, in Kansas City at the Agriculture Outlook Forum, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins spoke on the current state of the farm economy in the United States and addressed the ways President Trump is supporting American agriculture. U.S. farm production inputs are significantly more costly than four years ago, putting pressure on farmers' bottom line. Between 2020 and now, seed expenses have increased 18%, fuel and oil expenses increased 32%, fertilizer expenses increased 37%, and interest expenses increased by a whopping 73%. Additionally, labor costs increased 47% since 2020.

This week Jeff and Mike discuss the outside markets crazy activity and the massive short position on the USD. 

*The Farm Bill has expired.  *The Trump Administration is expected to make an announcement regarding potential aid for farmers.  *The nation's first bale of cotton raised over $24,000 for scholarships. *Some parts of the Texas High Plains are getting dry.  *Cotton harvest continues across Texas.  *The FDA has approved a drug to prevent and treat screwworms.  *Fall is settling into East Texas.  *The first generic BRD treatment for cattle has been approved by the FDA.  

Cattle carved with surgical precision on a Utah ranch… a skull hidden in a traveler's luggage bound for ritual… ancient Amazon rock art that may be more than history, but a map to the spirit world… a psychic warning ignored with terrifying consequences… a cursed brick returned in desperation… and a haunted road where ghostly hitchhikers still vanish into the night.

Cattle futures stepped lower Thursday, bowing to softer cash fed cattle prices and the continued seasonal decline in wholesale beef values. Some also suggested conditional FDA approval of an injectable from Zoetis for the prevention and control of New World screwworm might have been part of the pressure, speculating it might mean a quicker [...]

Futures, cash fed and dressed, boxed beef and cash feeders all lower; no export sales due to government shutdown.

On today's Final Bell, Mike Zuzolo of Global Commodity Analytics joins the program to break down a volatile start to the week. Key topics include: Markets in the dark: How uncertainty is shaping grain trade. Government shutdown: The market's attitude toward policy gridlock. Spreads and basis: What they're signaling beneath the surface. Livestock: Cattle feeders fall hard to start the week. Keys for early October: What producers should watch as a new month begins. Zuzolo unpacks the fundamentals and technicals guiding trade and highlights the signals worth tracking as markets move into October.

*The government shutdown is underway.   *The shutdown poses a serious risk for the cattle industry.   *The FDA has given conditional approval for Dectomax injectable to be used to prevent and treat screwworms. *Pumpkins are an important crop at this time of year.  *Fall weather is moving into many parts of Texas.  *A Texas congresswoman is asking the U.S. Trade Representatives office to help enforce the 1944 water treaty with Mexico.  *The month of September ended very dry in the Coastal Bend.  *The Texas livestock industry is actively preparing for the arrival of New World screwworms.  

Listen to the SF Daily podcast for today, October 2, 2025, with host Lorrie Boyer. These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. The soybean market saw a spike due to potential trade discussions between the U.S. and China. Mixed field reports suggest a decline in U.S. production, supporting the market. Ethanol production dropped to 995,000 barrels per day, down from 1.04 million a week earlier. Cattle futures face a tug of war between tight supplies and reduced demand, with cash cattle trading at $5 lower than last week. Boxed beef prices also declined. Isolated storms were forecasted for parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Missouri, with potential severe weather. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The October 1 edition of the AgNet News Hour featured a wide-ranging conversation with Kevin Kester, a fifth-generation rancher from Parkfield, California, and former president of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association. Hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill highlighted Kester's experience in both California ranching and national policy, bringing listeners a candid look at the future of cattle in the Golden State. Kester described the uphill battle of running cattle in California, where land values, estate taxes, and regulatory costs far exceed most other states. “People wonder how we can even stay in business,” he said, pointing to California's high costs and thousands of state-specific rules. Despite these challenges, the state still maintains 35 to 39 million acres of grazing land, underscoring the importance of cattle to California's ag economy. The conversation turned to the alarming wolf problem in the Sierra Nevada, where ranchers reported 77 documented wolf kills in just 90 days. Kester warned that California's stricter protections compared to federal listings make the situation even harder to manage. “It's going to take the loss of human life before anything will be done,” he said grimly. Kester also spoke about his time at the White House, standing with President Trump and working on trade agreements, including opening markets for U.S. beef in China and Australia. He credited federal policies with helping offset some of California's burdens but said the fight is far from over. He urged farmers to push for common-sense policies and to stay engaged in policy discussions that affect their livelihoods. Looking ahead, Kester stressed the importance of FFA and youth engagement in agriculture. As someone who served as an FFA officer himself, he sees the program as vital to ensuring a sixth generation continues his family's ranching legacy. “We do this to keep ranches intact and viable for the next generations,” he said, noting his six grandchildren are already helping on the ranch. From wolf predation to estate taxes and international trade, Kester's message was clear: California ranchers face enormous pressure, but with policy reforms and youth leadership, the industry can survive and thrive.

In this episode, Brad shares his firsthand experience with virtual fencing on the University of Minnesota's Morris dairy herd. After a long grazing season, he dives into the reasons he began experimenting with NoFence collars, the training process for heifers, and what he learned about costs, labor savings, and animal behavior.Brad walks listeners through the setup, the challenges of training, and the variation he saw among animals in how quickly they adapted. He highlights both the advantages—like labor efficiency and flexibility—and the limitations, such as collar costs, GPS accuracy, and the need for careful management when mixing groups.Looking ahead, Brad plans to extend the trial to lactating cows next grazing season, a new frontier for virtual fencing in dairy. He also points to upcoming field days and funding opportunities for farmers curious about adopting the technology.Virtual fencing, he concludes, may be the future of grazing management—helping reduce labor while improving flexibility on farms. 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

Recognizing and Addressing Cowherd Nutritional Deficiences Nutritional balance is a cornerstone of herd health and productivity. According to Dr. Kelly Sanders of Westway Feed Products, deficiencies often go unnoticed until performance suffers. Signs Of Nutritional Deficiencies In Cattle Poor Body Condition: Thin cows, visible ribs, or weak muscling. Reduced Fertility: Open cows, delayed cycling, or poor conception rates. Coat and Hoof Issues: Rough hair coats, brittle hooves, or slow shedding. Growth Challenges in Calves: Reduced weight gains or uneven growth patterns. How To Correct Deficiencies Forage Testing: Identify nutrient gaps in hay and pasture. Targeted Supplementation: Provide liquid or block supplements to balance protein, energy, and minerals. Management Adjustments: Ensure adequate feed availability during high-demand stages such as lactation and breeding. Dr. Sanders emphasizes that proactive nutrition not only boosts herd performance but also maximizes returns on investment in genetics.

In this hard-hitting episode of Talk Dirt to Me, we dive deep into some of the most controversial issues shaking American agriculture right now. The U.S. government is considering subsidizing the cattle industry, and cattlemen across the country are calling it a terrible idea. We break down why this move could backfire, distort the beef market, and hurt ranchers long-term. We also discuss how the United States is preparing to bail out Argentina, one of our biggest competitors in the global soybean market. What does it mean for row crop farmers, U.S. soybean prices, and the already struggling American ag economy? Are we essentially cutting our own throats by funding a competitor? On top of that, we answer a wide range of listener Q&As from cattle production to row crop farming. If you are a farmer, rancher, or ag entrepreneur looking for real talk about what is happening in agriculture right now, this episode is for you.
