He stacked every FSA beginning farmer loan he could get, went from about 100 cows to 550 in roughly a year, and when the balance sheet finally settled he was positive by $278. That is the number this whole episode hangs on. Luke and Natalie Kovarik run Kovarik Cattle Co., a first generation Angus seedstock operation out of Ord, Nebraska, selling around 100 bulls a year in a January sale that started at 30. Luke was a town kid with 160 acres and a dental school plan. Natalie is fourth generation Hereford out of Montana, and today she works four jobs off the ranch, including marketing and equity in Red Ants Pants. Almost everything they earn away from the cows exists to pay for the cows. The middle of this one is the direct to consumer beef autopsy, twelve straight minutes on why selling your own beef is so much harder than the internet makes it look, why she dreaded Sunday nights, and what happened to the freezer inventory. Then the influencing pivot, why she stepped back from putting her family online, and what she does with the audience now. Also in this one: custom AI and backgrounding somebody else's calves to make equipment payments, $5,000 of blackjack money wired for embryos, reading bull catalogs like a swimsuit edition, meeting at her family's bull sale, lab grown meat and consumer trust, putting cattle back on grain farms and the pasture that rural towns already lost, hiring and keeping good help, bricking their kids' phones and putting a landline back in the house, twelve landlords and not one under 68, and why they are not building this ranch for their kids. His line on who the ranch is for: no, we're doing it for us. What should we dig into next week? Put it in the comments.

We hear calls for more ‘cooperative working', to give farmers a louder voice in the food supply chain.When is a Hereford cow not a Hereford cow?

Starting a farm has never been easy, and for today's beginning farmers and ranchers, the cost of land, equipment, livestock, and operating expenses can make getting established feel nearly impossible. But there are USDA programs designed to help, and understanding where to start can make a major difference.On this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, Chrissy Wozniak speaks with Amanda Robertson, National Outreach Specialist and Beginning Farmer and Rancher Regional Coordinator with the USDA Farm Service Agency. Amanda is also a sixth-generation farmer from Russell Springs, Kentucky, where her family operates a registered Angus and Hereford cattle operation. Amanda explains that USDA does not define a beginning farmer by age. Instead, the designation generally applies to someone who has not operated a farm for more than ten years. She also discusses some of the biggest barriers facing new producers today, particularly access to land and capital, and explains how FSA low-interest loan programs can help producers get started. The conversation walks through where a new farmer should begin with USDA, including why the local Farm Service Agency office is often the first stop and how farmers.gov can help producers understand available programs, prepare for meetings, and build a path toward financing, crop insurance, and other resources. Amanda also explains the importance of getting established in the USDA system with a farm serial number. Chrissy and Amanda also dig into financing, including FSA's microloan program for loans of $50,000 or less, and why a solid business plan, realistic projections, and honest communication with a loan officer are essential. Amanda encourages producers to be conservative in their estimates and avoid taking on unnecessary debt simply to have the newest equipment.   They also discuss how USDA measures success beyond simple enrollment numbers, including whether producers expand operations, improve land, participate in additional programs, or move into value-added agriculture. Amanda explains that USDA tries to track the longer-term journey of beginning farmers and how programs help them move from startup to growth. Amanda also shares her perspective on mentorship, stressing the value of learning directly from experienced farmers who have seen both the good and the bad of agriculture. She encourages aspiring producers not to give up on the idea of farming simply because the barriers look overwhelming at first. The episode also previews Amanda's upcoming appearance at the Women in Agribusiness Summit in New Orleans, where she will participate in the Farmers' Programs' Practical Implementation panel. The discussion will bring together USDA and producer perspectives to show how farmers have successfully used federal programs to build operations from the ground up.Learn more at farmers.gov/new-farmersSend us Fan MailSchedule a demo today at ecorobotix.com Introducing FarmNewsDaily.com - your source for agriculture news!Subscribe to North American Ag at https://northamericanag.com

Send us Fan MailAhead of the Museum Open Day on Saturday 12th September, Col Andy Taylor and Rev Paul Roberts meet in the museum to look at items recently donated or acquired for the museum.They begin with a First World War brass bugle issued to the Herefordshire Regiment's Supplementary Company - made up of old Territorial soldiers who were too old to fight overseas.  Our pair examine the role of the Supplementary Company including guarding German civil internees on the Isle of Man.Two new weapons have been acquired from the Royal Air Force Museum's reserve collection and will be on show in our museum cases for our open day.  The advantages and disadvantages of the Mark II Sten gun are discussed.  This weapon was used widely during the Second World War by British and Commonwealth units as well as by resistance fighters on the continent.  Men of the Herefordshire Regiment used this weapon in the liberation of North-West Europe in 1944 and 1945; unfortunately with the result of several casualties within the regiment itself.The Stirling sub-machine gun, the Sten's successor is also examined and finds its place in our post-war display case.  Often issued to tank crews, radio operators and others working in confined spaces, it was popular on exercise as it was much lighter than the  L1A1 Self Loading Rifle to carry, even if it was far less accurate!Finally, inside a pig skin case is a platoon "bible" compiled by Second Lieutenant Geoffrey Poppleton Lloyd, a Leominster solicitor, listing all the men in his platoon that he took to Gallipoli in July 1915.  There are fascinating details, including everything from hat size to home addresses, pay and allowances.  Our pair discuss the important role pastoral role played by platoon officers and Lloyd's wartime career - being evacuated from both Gallipoli and later Egypt and his attachment to the 1st Battalion, Kings Shropshire Light Infantry (KSLI).  He was captured by German forces on the first day of the Spring Offensive in March 1918, along with Andy and Paul's ancestor Charles Percy Taylor.If you are around on 12th September and would like to visit the museum, call along to Suvla Barracks, Harold Street, Hereford, HR1 2QX.  We are open as part of the National Heritage Open Day Scheme on Saturday 12 September from 1030hrs until 1500hrs .Support the showIf you like what you hear, don't forget to like and subscribe to help us reach a wider audience.

1881 travels to Madison, Wis., for the 2026 VitaFerm® Junior National Hereford Expo. In this three-part series, Shane Bedwell sits down with the judges of the Masters in Madison to discuss their careers, experiences and perspectives from one of the most prestigious events of the summer.  The first guest is Montie Soules, CEO of the American Shorthorn Association (ASA), who judged the steers and bred-and-owned bulls. Shane and Montie recap the show, reflect on Montie's career in the beef industry and Hereford breed. Before joining ASA, Montie spent 34 years as general manager of Star Lake Cattle Ranch/ACE Polled Herefords, where the program exhibited 49 national and reserve national champions and 13 consecutive champion carloads of bulls at the National Western Stock Show.

Raised on his family's farm in Michigan, Montie graduated from Michigan State University. 

America's Dairyland has had a problem. It's estimated that dairy operations have an estimated 5,000-10,000 year-round immigrant laborers, rather than temporary seasonal visa holders, that help keep cows milked and fed. There's no federal work program that applies to that unique situation. Recently the U.S. Dept. of Labor announced some clarification on H2A governance and how it can be used. It clarified that dairies should qualify for that tool. Sam Moheban, immigration attorney at Ruder Ware law firm in Wausau, says that's good news but shouldn't lull dairies into a false sense of security. Pam Jahnke finds out what he means. Over 2 inches of rain reported in places like Belgium, Valders and the Green Bay area yesterday. Stu Muck says that moisture is leaving after today, but heat is right behind it. Muck say we'll easily be back in the 90's by the weekend. Over 700 youth from 44 states and Canada, plus around 2,000 head of cattle are making the Junior National Hereford Show a success in Madison. A mom and Hereford enthusiast from Lancast, WI, is keeping things rolling. Kiley Allan talks with Jaclyn Bevans, board member of National Hereford Women, about the benefits exhibitors see beyond the ribbons and trophy's. Bevans puts the accents on the family time spent preparing animals, and the skills youth participants are picking up in the 1400 skill based contests they've held this week too. HoHum. That sums up the dairy market story lately. Why won't if budge? Ryan Yonkman, vice president of EverAg, joins Pam Jahnke to talk it through. Yonkman says consumer demand is flat at best. Pizza sales have continued to slip, and the European Union is giving the U.S. plenty of price competition. The good news is that U.S. dairy product continues to move in the export space, but will it continue. Yonkman says a lot will depend on how the "holiday" buying season ramps up in the next few weeks. He notes that schools will be starting to come back online in August, and the Labor Day holiday can be an indication of early holiday demand.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bill Gruhlkey and Roger Morris welcome Pastor Guy Walker from Barn Church in Hereford,Texas to continue discussing why you must cast all your care on Jesus and live with hope, faith, and love (1 Corinthians 13:13), because hope fuels faith and faith activates God's promises (Hebrews 11:1,6). You're encouraged to guard your heart (Proverbs 4:23), watch your confession, and surround yourself with people who speak scriptural counsel, since "faith comes by hearing" (Romans 10:17). The conversation emphasizes that God still works miracles and confirms His Word with signs, including healing (Isaiah 53; 1 Peter 2:24), and that asking according to His will in the Word brings confidence (1 John 5:14). Pastor Guy Walker shares the terstimony of his brother's recovery from paralysis as an example of strong confession. You will be strengthened and encouraged to reject anxiety through prayer and to meditate on what is true (Philippians 4:4-9).   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 Trials Birth Purpose 00:23 Show Welcome and Guests 01:19 Barn Church Invitation 02:23 Hope Fuels Faith 03:44 Confession and Breakthrough 05:08 Faith Hope Love Balance 05:56 Guard Your Influences 09:16 Church as Hope Magnet 10:29 Shaking Times Steady Saints 11:42 Miracles and Relentless Hope 13:22 Philippians 4 Mindset 14:49 Follow Faithful Examples 15:14 Faith Over Negativity 15:24 Planting By Faith 15:44 God Our True Source 16:26 Confidence In The Word 17:23 Whole Bible Still Applies 19:07 Preach It To See It 20:22 Healing Is God's Will 21:36 Receive Then Act 22:07 Obedience Releases Power 23:26 Miracle Brother Testimony 24:14 Speak Life Confession 26:45 Prayer And Final Blessing 27:31 Ministry Resources And Partner   Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064668460680

This week on Extraordinary Living with Bill and Roger, Bill Gruhlkey and Roger Morris welcome Pastor Guy Walker, Senior Pastor at Barn Church in Hereford, Texas, to discuss how Christians can overcome today's widespread anxiety and fear by changing the way they think and living in the reality of God's kingdom. Guy teaches that emotions follow thoughts, so believers must renew their minds with God's Word, stay in agreement with it, and cast their cares on the Lord because He cares for them. He explains that hope—produced by an interactive relationship with the Holy Spirit through prayer, spiritual disciplines, and pursuing spiritual gifts—builds faith and positions you for miracles and breakthrough. The conversation challenges passive "God will do it all" thinking, emphasizes believer's authority and obedience, and encourages guarding your confession.
