Industry Associations React To Beef Imported From Argentina President Trump issued a proclamation titled “Ensuring Affordable Beef for the American Consumer,” increasing the in-quota import of lean beef trimmings from Argentina by 80,000 metric tons in 2026 to help lower ground beef prices. U.S. Cattlemen's Association (USCA) President Justin Tupper said the group has been engaged with the Administration since expanded imports were first proposed in October 2025. While USCA supports efforts to stabilize supply, Tupper emphasized that a strong domestic cattle industry is essential and warned that trade agreements must not undermine U.S. producers or supply integrity. Tupper expressed concern over the scale and origin of the imports, noting Argentina faces tight cattle supplies similar to the U.S. He said the roughly 400% increase should be treated as a one-time exception, not a precedent, and urged stronger rules of origin and labeling so consumers know where their beef comes from. R-CALF echoed these concerns, stating that past increases in beef imports from countries such as Argentina and Brazil failed to reduce consumer prices. Instead, they correlated with a shrinking U.S. cattle herd, fewer domestic producers, and ultimately higher beef prices.

From stepping into management at a young age, to building his own trucking business, surviving a serious accident, and rebuilding from the ground up — Charlie has packed a lot into his early twenties.Today, he's building Kamilaroi Cattle Company, a paddock-to-plate beef business grounded in regenerative principles, while also growing Element Agri, a mineral business supplying livestock and soil health products across Australia — all while continuing to learn, trial, and refine his systems.What stood out most in this conversation is Charlie's level of perspective and wisdom for someone his age. He's thoughtful, open about mistakes, and deeply committed to building systems that work with the land, not against it.This is a practical, honest conversation about regenerative agriculture, genetics, business, and what it really takes to build something from scratch in agriculture.In this episode, we chat about:Taking on responsibility at a young age and learning on the jobOvercoming adversity and rebuilding after a life-changing accidentTransitioning land from cropping back to pastureRegenerative agriculture and ultra-high density grazingSanga genetics and breeding cattle for resilience and efficiencyBuilding a paddock-to-plate beef business from scratchThe realities of running multiple ag businesses at 24Systems thinking, soil health, and long-term land stewardshipResources MentionedMAN, CATTLE and VELD : Zietsman, Johann: Amazon.com.au: BooksIntegrity Soils - Biological Education SpecialistsFollow Charlie

Calf prices are making headlines, and in this episode Emily and Brad are joined by UMN Extension beef educator Melissa Runck to talk through what today's hot beef and beef-on-dairy markets mean for producers.They discuss why newborn beef-cross calves are bringing record prices, how that cash can help dairy farms when milk prices are low, and what the latest Cattle on Feed report tells us about declining inventories and producers' reluctance to keep heifers as replacements. The group then dives into beef-on-dairy sire selection, emphasizing realistic goals over the search for a “perfect” bull, the importance of calving ease and fertility, and when carcass traits and indexes matter based on how calves are marketed.The episode wraps up with a practical look at facilities and management, underscoring that good management—more than perfect buildings—drives success with beef-on-dairy cattle.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

Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they go into the processing pen for cattle handling practices, ideas and concepts.  This one will make yall think.  Plus, selling commercial heifers at production sales has become very popular, for good reason and lots more all wrapped into this brand new 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. Season 6, EPISODE 275 Safe & Effective Cattle Handling Practices:  Protecting People and Livestock Safe cattle handling practices are critical for worker safety, animal welfare, and overall operation efficiency. Most cattle-handling injuries are preventable by understanding cattle behavior, using proper facilities, and applying low-stress handling techniques. Why Safe Cattle Handling Matters Poor handling increases the risk of injuries, cattle stress, reduced performance, and economic loss. Calm cattle are healthier, easier to manage, and safer for everyone involved. Key Safe Cattle Handling Practices Understand the flight zone and point of balance Move cattle calmly—avoid yelling or excessive pressure Work cattle in small groups Maintain clear escape routes Use well-designed, non-slip handling facilities Focus on Low-Stress Handling Low-stress cattle handling improves safety, reduces illness, and boosts performance. Using cattle behavior—not force—creates smoother flow and fewer accidents. Training Is Essential Even good facilities can't replace proper training. Production Animal Consultation helps producers identify risks, improve cattle flow, and train crews using science-based, practical handling methods. Bottom Line Safe cattle handling protects people, improves animal welfare, and strengthens your operation. Working with experts like Production Animal Consultation helps ensure your cattle are handled safely, efficiently, and humanely—every day. Check out Production Animal Consultation HERE. Wasem Red Angus: Selling Commercial Heifers At Their Production Sale Wasem Red Angus offers commercial heifers at their annual production sale with one goal in mind—providing functional, reliable females for commercial cattlemen.

How Much Should Producers Spend On Breeding Bulls Jon DeClerck, the Executive Vice President of the American Simmental Association, went to social media tackling the issue of how much should producers pay for their next breeding bulls this year.  According to his research, he claims breeding bull prices in relation to feeder cattle are undervalued.  Here is what he said “A lot of folks are talking about record bull prices, and rightly so. The cattle market has pushed to historic highs in 2025, and it's good to see seedstock producers, who've been fueling genetic progress for commercial cattlemen, also being rewarded. That said, when you step back and look at the data, it tells an important story. Even though average bull prices are the highest we've ever seen, bulls are still undervalued relative to the current market landscape.
