Cattle Industry News JBS USA has announced plans to close two facilities as part of an effort to improve efficiency and focus on future growth. The company will shut down its beef production plant in Pennsylvania, and its value-added processing facility in Memphis, Tennessee. JBS says the move is part of a larger strategy to modernize operations, improve efficiency, and expand production of value-added food products. The company says production from the two facilities will be shifted to other JBS operations, and customers should not see any disruption in supply. The announcement comes after JBS invested in facilities in Texas, Georgia, and Iowa to expand prepared foods production, modernize plants, and improve efficiency. Earlier this year, the company also combined its beef and case-ready businesses to create a more streamlined operation. The JBS CEO says JBS continues to invest heavily in the United States and the future of food production, while making sure its operations remain competitive and efficient. The company says consumer demand for protein remains strong and believes these changes will help position JBS for long-term growth. Last fall, Tyson Foods permanently closed its beef processing facility in Lexington, Nebraska, eliminating approximately 3,200 jobs and removing nearly 5% of total U.S. beef slaughter capacity. More recently, labor disputes have emerged at several major processing facilities. Approximately 1,700 workers at Cargill's beef processing plant in Fort Morgan, Colorado, were locked out after contract negotiations between the company and union representatives failed to produce a ratified agreement. The Fort Morgan facility accounts for nearly 5% of total U.S. beef production. JBS also faced labor challenges earlier this year when nearly 4,000 workers at its Greeley, Colorado, beef plant participated in a strike before ultimately approving a new labor contract.

As of Monday, June 15th, the total number of domestic cases is now at 12, 11 are considered active and 1 inactive with 0 active wildlife and feral cases. Counties in Texas include Sutton, an inactive case discovered in a sheep. Edwards county with cases discovered in cattle and goats. Tom Green County, a case in cattle. Zavala County, cases in cattle. Gillespie (guh-LES-pee) County, a case in goats. And La Salle County, cases in cattle. In New Mexico, Lea County had that case in a dog. Livestock and pet owners, wildlife game farms, producers, land users, remember to check stock often for open wounds and lethargic animals. Report anything unusual and head to screwworm.gov for the latest confirmation maps, current status, treatment and U.S. readiness plans. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says the USDA is closely monitoring the New World screwworm situation and what it could mean for the current ban on live cattle imports from Mexico. Speaking at a press conference in Texas, Rollins was asked whether the U.S. could reopen the border to Mexican cattle imports now that New World screwworm has been detected in Texas. Rollins responded that the issue is "not lost on me" and that USDA will continue to watch the data very closely. The comments come after USDA confirmed several New World screwworm cases in Texas, including cases found in cattle, sheep, goats and a dog. Federal officials say surveillance, quarantines, treatment efforts, and sterile fly releases are being used to contain and eliminate the pest. The U.S. suspended imports of live cattle, horses, and bison from Mexico in May of 2025 because of the northward spread of New World screwworm in Mexico. Before the border closure, the United States imported about 1.25 million head of cattle from Mexico each year, most of them feeder cattle headed to U.S. feedlots. Some livestock industry groups have questioned whether the ban remains effective, noting that screwworm can spread through wildlife, pets, and other animals—not just cattle. Producers and feedlot operators have also said the closure has tightened cattle supplies and increased costs. Rollins did not provide any timeline for reopening the border but said USDA will continue evaluating the situation. Meanwhile, USDA's eradication efforts include expanded trapping programs, movement controls, and the release of sterile flies from facilities in Texas, Mexico, and Panama.

Through the first four months of 2026, U.S. beef exports totaled just over 365,000 metric tons, down 11 percent from a year ago. Export value fell 7 percent to $3.13 billion, as tight cattle supplies and record-high global beef prices continue to impact trade. There is some positive news. Following a summit between President Trump and the Chinese President, China renewed export licenses for most U.S. beef plants in May. The U.S. beef industry had been largely shut out of China since March of 2025 during the early stages of the trade dispute. However, industry leaders say it remains unclear how quickly beef shipments to China will recover. Additional trade barriers still need to be resolved before exports can fully rebound. U.S. Meat Export Federation President Dan Halstrom says the renewed plant registrations are encouraging, but more obstacles must be addressed before U.S. beef regains its position in the Chinese market. Outside of China, demand for U.S. beef remains steady. Export volume to the rest of the world is roughly unchanged from a year ago, while export value is up 7 percent. Major buyers including South Korea, Japan, and Canada have purchased less U.S. beef this year. Mexico, however, continues to be a strong customer, with purchases holding steady and demand for variety meats increasing. Several markets are showing strong growth, including Taiwan, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Peru, Colombia, and Guatemala. Halstrom says global demand for U.S. beef remains resilient despite high prices and limited supplies. He notes challenges remain, including weak foreign currencies and higher energy costs that are affecting consumer spending in many countries.

OA1271 - The single stupidest war of choice the U.S. has ever gotten itself into may finally be coming to an end--or at least the concept of a plan for an end? We go beyond the headlines to see what is actually in this thing, and take on some of the most interesting legal questions raised here. How could this possibly bind Israel, a country which specifically refused to be a party to it? How is the U.S. promising a $300 billion investment which hasn't been authorized by Congress? And how much power does the President of the United States really have to end Congressional and international sanctions? We then take a quick look at how DHS's surveillance state is coming along before going deeper on the recent denial of Judge Hannah Dugan's final effort to vacate her conviction for allegedly obstructing an ICE arrest in her Wisconsin courtroom before sentencing. Finally, a quick hoofnote: is it really possible to accidentally purchase 80,000 pounds of live cattle? Matt reveals the truth behind this week's funniest legal meme.

What happens when a livestock threat once thought eradicated begins moving north toward Texas? On this episode of Texas Talks, host Brad Swail sits down with Dr. Lori Teller, licensed veterinarian and Executive Director of the Texas Veterinary Medical Association (TVMA), to discuss the growing concern surrounding New World screwworm, the state of veterinary medicine in Texas, rural veterinarian shortages, telemedicine, and the future of animal health. Dr. Teller explains how New World screwworm infestations threaten livestock, wildlife, pets, and even humans, and why state and federal agencies are working urgently to prevent its spread throughout Texas and the United States. The conversation covers: • What New World screwworm is and how it spreads • Why the threat has returned after decades of containment • Sterile fly programs and eradication efforts • The potential impact on Texas agriculture and food production • How pet owners should respond to suspicious wounds • State and federal coordination to contain outbreaks • Rural veterinarian shortages across Texas • Student debt and workforce challenges in veterinary medicine • The Rural Veterinarian Incentive Program • Veterinary telemedicine and its limitations • Artificial intelligence in veterinary practice • Priorities for the upcoming Texas legislative session Dr. Teller also discusses how veterinary medicine extends far beyond dogs and cats, encompassing livestock, wildlife, public health, food safety, and emergency response efforts that are critical to Texas' economy and agricultural sector. The discussion explores the challenges of attracting veterinarians to rural communities, where shortages can impact ranchers, farmers, and animal owners across large geographic regions. The episode concludes with a look at how technology, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence are beginning to transform veterinary care while reinforcing the importance of maintaining strong veterinary networks throughout Texas. 00:00 — Intro + Meet Dr. Lori Teller 01:44 — Veterinary specialties and career paths 03:44 — What is New World screwworm? 06:50 — Why screw worm has returned 09:52 — Sterile fly facilities and containment efforts 11:30 — Worst-case scenarios for Texas agriculture 14:00 — State and federal response efforts 16:13 — Current screwworm cases in Texas 17:52 — What pet owners should do 20:15 — Rural veterinarian shortages 24:18 — The Rural Veterinarian Incentive Program 29:16 — Veterinary telemedicine explained 37:58 — Artificial intelligence in veterinary medicine 41:11 — Priorities for the next legislative session 41:48 — Closing thoughts Watch Full-Length Interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@TexasTalks Follow us on social mediaX: @Texas_DispatchInstagram: thetexasdispatchLinkedIn: The Texas DispatchTikTok: texas_talks_podcast Find more at The Texas DispatchYour source for state news, policy, and investigative journalism.https://thetexasdispatch.com

Now that New World Screwworm has made its way across our southern border and infected cattle in Texas and New Mexico, the question is, should we need to be worried about it up here in the Pacific Northwest?
U.S. food spending by consumers, businesses, and Government entities increased to $2.51 trillion in 2025 from an inflation-adjusted $1.56 trillion in 1997, and farmer awareness of biological crop products remains high, and new research suggests the market is entering a more mature phase with confidence rising.

As grass growth accelerates across the UK and Ireland, livestock farmers face the challenge of maintaining forage quality while maximising productivity from grazing and silage systems.In this episode of Grow the Future, host Ken Rundle is joined by Yara's Country Grassland Specialist, Philip Cosgrave, to discuss the key grassland management decisions facing farmers at mid-season. They explore how to maintain grass quality during periods of rapid growth, the importance of managing grazing covers, and why timely nutrient applications are critical for both grazing and silage performance.Philip also highlights the significant nutrient offtakes associated with silage production, the growing importance of potassium, phosphate and sulphur management, and how farmers can use nutrient planning to improve efficiency while remaining compliant with evolving environmental regulations.Whether you're focused on grazing performance, silage yields, or long-term soil fertility, this episode provides practical advice to help you get the most from your grassland this season.
The New World screwworm continues to be a major concern for livestock producers across the southern United States, but Texas agricultural leaders say coordinated efforts between state and federal agencies are helping contain the threat and protect animal health. On today's episode of AgNet News Hour, Texas Farm Bureau Director of Communications Gary Joiner provided an update on the latest developments surrounding New World screwworm detections in Texas and the ongoing response efforts. According to Joiner, the primary focus remains surveillance, rapid reporting, and immediate intervention whenever a case is identified. He noted that the pest was successfully eradicated in the United States decades ago and expressed confidence that modern technology and improved preparedness can help prevent widespread impacts today. “We beat this screwworm back in the 1970s,” Joiner said. “We can do it again. We've got better technology, better tools, and I think our farm and ranch community is better prepared.” Federal involvement has played a significant role in the response. Joiner highlighted the efforts of U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and USDA officials, who have dedicated additional personnel and resources toward monitoring and controlling the pest. State animal health officials, wildlife agencies, and livestock producers are also working together under a coordinated response plan. One important measure has been the temporary closure of live animal imports from Mexico. While the move has created challenges for some cattle feeders who rely on imported livestock, officials say it is necessary to reduce the risk of additional infestations entering the country. Joiner emphasized that New World screwworm is an animal health issue rather than a food safety issue. “This is not a food safety concern,” Joiner explained. “There is no impact on the meat of the animal or on any other food products consumers enjoy.” Current detections have involved livestock as well as a canine case, underscoring the importance of vigilance among ranchers, veterinarians, and pet owners. Officials recommend promptly treating wounds, monitoring animals for unusual symptoms, and maintaining close communication with veterinarians regarding prevention and treatment options. The response strategy also includes the release of sterile screwworm flies, a proven method that disrupts the insect's reproductive cycle and helps reduce wild populations. Combined with trapping, surveillance, and rapid treatment protocols, officials believe the approach can effectively contain outbreaks before they spread further. While livestock producers remain concerned about the potential economic impacts of New World screwworm, Joiner said the industry is taking the threat seriously and working collaboratively to prevent a larger outbreak. As monitoring continues throughout Texas and other border states, agricultural leaders say awareness and early detection remain the most important tools in protecting the nation's livestock industry.

When drought or other weather conditions force producers to sell livestock earlier than planned or reduce herd numbers, the tax consequences can be significant. In this episode, Tina Barrett, executive director of Nebraska Farm Business, Inc., walks through the two main deferral options available to producers under federal tax law, explains how to determine whether deferring income actually makes financial sense, and covers the recordkeeping that makes any of it possible.Barrett also addresses crop insurance deferral rules and casualty loss provisions that may apply to damaged buildings, fences or equipment. With drought conditions affecting much of Nebraska, this episode is a practical guide for producers and their tax preparers as they plan for the rest of the year.Produced and hosted by Morgan Bonifas, Center for Agricultural Profitability Intern.This episode is edited from a full webinar that Barrett delivered in response to wildfires in Nebraska, on April 29, 2026. Find the recording here.Barrett also wrote an article on the topic, available here.
New World screwworm cases in Texas and New Mexico, rising fertilizer costs and lower projected farm income are adding pressure for U.S. agricultural producers.

Bud challenges conventional ranching wisdom, explaining why cattle are simply a tool for marketing feed, labor, and skill, and why profitability depends more on sound marketing decisions than on production alone.Through practical examples and decades of experience, Bud shares insights on understanding the true value of feed, recognizing overpriced and underpriced opportunities, and making decisions that improve both profitability and long-term stewardship. Whether you're a cow-calf producer, stocker operator, or ranch manager, this episode offers timeless lessons for navigating changing markets and building a more resilient operation.Key TakeawaysWhy marketing is often more profitable than simply adding weight to cattle.How to evaluate the true value of feed, labor, skill, and time.Understanding the difference between owning cattle and making money with cattle.How the "sell-buy" mindset helps identify profitable opportunities.Why keeping cash and feed can sometimes be a better investment than owning livestock.Show Notes & ResourcesLearn more about Bud and Eunice Williams' teachings: https://stockmanship.com/Jump over to YouTube to catch the video of this and all podcast episodes.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpLUbiwmZtkszQAjdtlO8ZQiJjgrYGr1x

How To Identify & Treat New World Screwworm In Livestock The name screwworm refers to the maggots' feeding behavior as they burrow (screw) into the wound, feeding as they go like a screw being driven into wood. Maggots cause extensive damage by tearing at the hosts' tissue with sharp mouth hooks. The wound can become larger and deepen as more maggots hatch and feed on living tissue. As a result, NWS can cause serious, often deadly damage to the animal. Adult screwworm flies are about the size of a common housefly (or slightly larger). They have orange eyes, a metallic blue or green body, and three dark stripes along their backs. Report mammals and birds with the following signs: Irritated behavior Head shaking The smell of decay Presence of fly larvae (maggots) in wounds Click Here For Updated Information on New World Screwworm: screwworm.gov LMA World Livestock Auctioneering Championship In June 1963, Livestock Marketing Association held the first annual World Livestock Auctioneer Championship (WLAC). The purpose: to spotlight North America's top livestock auctioneers and to salute their traditionally important role in the competitive livestock marketing process. Auctioneers from the United States and Canada came to the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Denver, Colorado to show off their auctioneering talents. Twenty-three contestants sold the same 20 head of cattle over and over again. The contest was held at hotels until 1967, when it traveled to its first LMA member market. Since then the WLAC has been held at member markets around the U.S. and Canada. Recent locations include Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Virginia and West Virginia. Though the rules have changed, the enthusiasm for the competition hasn't. The largest number of entrants in the contest to date was in 1981 when LMA received 105 auctioneer entries. The championship consists of three stages, the qualifying event, semifinals and the finals, held each June in conjunction with the LMA Annual Convention. Contestants competing for the world champion title must be 18 years old, employed as a livestock auctioneer and sponsored by livestock auction or dealer businesses, who share in the favorable publicity generated by the winners. LMA is proud to sponsor an event that brings together North America's top livestock auctioneers in a competition that showcases professionalism and promotes the auction method of marketing.

What does a cow actually cost to run?At Kerin Ag, every kilogram of utilisable feed has a value attached to it. That allows Joe Kerin and the team to measure whether an animal is genuinely paying its way.In this episode, Joe joins Mark to discuss how putting a dollar value on each kilogram of grass they grow led them to choose Wagyu over Angus. As any Kerin would, Joe has done the numbers and compared Wagyu cows with larger recipient cows, based on the weaning weight of their calves relative to the kg of dry matter consumed by the cows. And, as predicted, the moderate-sized cow is far more efficient than the larger Angus X recipients. Joe also discusses the role of genomics in Wagyu breeding. As they are a breed with a very narrow gene pool and are bred for carcass-related attributes, genomics is incredibly important, and Joe utilises it to its fullest.Tune in to learn how to turn grass into money - this time with cattle.Head Shepherd is brought to you by neXtgen Agri International Limited.

From the early days of crofting and subsistence farming to the present day, animal protein has provided an essential and highly valuable source of nutrients for Arran's population. While sheep and beef production have always been central to Arran's farming economy, venison is now also being embraced as a sustainable protein source that can help to combat the growing threat that the wild deer population poses to island ecosystems.In this first episode of our new series Agroecology Around Arran, we explore how the production of meat on Arran embraces the ethos of agroecology, how farmers are working together to reduce carbon emissions from livestock farming, and what we can learn from their example.GuestsAlistair CurrieAlistair talks to us about his livestock farm based in the Shiskine Valley. He maintains a herd of around around 30 native-breed beef cattle which are fed on pasture and home-grown silage.Colin CurrieColin Currie is an upland hill farmer who has been farming sheep and beef at Bridge Farm with his wife Laura since the 1970s. Bridge Farm is situated within a SSSI-designated site that is home to a rich diversity of flora and fauna. Colin uses his innate knowledge of the land to create a low-input livestock system that has allowed him to reduce reliance on external markets, maximise animal welfare, and work in harmony with the surrounding ecosystem.Zoë HughesZoë Hughes runs Wild Isle Venison with her partner Chris. Their work aims to honour the deer that are harvested alongside protecting the natural landscape on Arran and strengthening the local food chain. Zoë is passionate about sustainable, affordable meat that has a positive impact on the environment. Wild Isle Venison works to reconnect producers and consumers, processing venison in small batches and selling to local residents, chefs and businesses across the island.Alec PirieAlec Pirie is a Senior Consultant and Area Manager for SAC Consulting. Alec works with over 120 clients across Scotland and has a particular interest in carbon, climate and conservation. He has also recently completed a Master's degree in Wildlife, Conservation and Management. Alec started the Net Zero Arran group in 2019. This aim of this group of farmers is to quantify the island's agricultural carbon footprint and take collective action to improve it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The loss of a crop is awful. The loss of a tradition, even more painful. This year's erratic weather has caused some Wisconsin strawberry growers to rethink their plan. Kiley Allan gets the story from Danielle Clark of Mayberry Farms in Mayville. Their strawberry harvest is over before it started. They have pick-your-own strawberries, honeybees, row crops, and a newly planted apple orchard, backyard livestock collection of chickens and show lambs, makes skincare with farm grown ingredients such as strawberries, beeswax, tallow and lard. Agronomist believes Phytophthora attacked their plants - putting an end to their season before it started. Clark says they had a little last year, but removed diseased plants but because soil doesn't drain well and the spring was cool and wet it accelerated it to a total loss. One of their brand pillars is authenticity, so Danielle felt it was important to give the community an open and honest announcement that they would not have pick your own strawberries this year. She felt it was important to give enough time to digest the information and determine where they will go instead. The farm was met with an overwhelming amount of support from the community. The farm will convert the affected soil to an apple orchard expansion. Rain is just starting to move into Wisconsin this morning. Stu Muck says it'll hang around through the day Friday, but allow for a beautiful weekend of drier weather. What do Wisconsin livestock owners need to think about regarding New World Screw Worm? Curt Larson, president and CEO of Equity Livestock Sales Association in Baraboo feels confident that Texas has the insect under control. Larson says market disruption so far has been minimal. He also says the chances of the insect making it to Wisconsin are thin. Still, for Wisconsin livestock operators that house/grow/breed their animals in other states, thinking through possible quarantine restrictions is not a bad plan. Pam Jahnke visits with Larson. The state's largest outdoor agriculture event depends on volunteers, weather and commercial exhibitors. How's the 2026 show coming together? Stephanie Hoff gets a preview from Janet Keller, general manager, Wisconsin Farm Technology Days. Wisconsin Farm Technology Days is currently managing a "critical mass" of calls from potential exhibitors and sponsors to build the schedule and finalize the official program. The organization recently expanded its small staff by hiring Kate Borren as program coordinator and Abby George to handle financial bookkeeping. Unlike most other agricultural shows, this event moves to a different site within the state. Reorganized in 2023 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit, the show’s mission focuses on education and resources for agriculture, health, safety, and food sourcing for both farmers and consumers. The event requires a minimum of 200 acres to host—ideally on a modern dairy farm—and must be booked several years in advance so host farms can properly adjust their crop rotation schedules. The event logo changes every year to reflect the host county's unique identity. For 2026, the logo features the outline of Marathon County, the town of Stratford, and dairy cows representing the host farm, No Joke Dairy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of 1881, Jirl Buck, Madill, Okla., shares the story behind his lifelong passion for the livestock industry and the experiences that led him to the Hereford breed. Working alongside his father sparked Jirl's interest in the cattle business at a young age, and years later, he found his way to the Hereford breed through the National Hereford Sale, where the females purchased helped lay the groundwork for Buck Cattle Co.'s success in the breed. Throughout the episode, he reflects on the cattle and people that have influenced his journey and shaped his success.
Listen to the SF Daily podcast for today, June 3, 2026, with host Lorrie Boyer. These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. There is a rebound in the energy complex and continued strength in the cash market, with crush margins at record highs, and year-to-date crushes 8% ahead of last year. Grains are soft, and corn is firming, but the market lacks fresh bullish news. The US-Iran conflict and weather concerns are adding volatility. Tariffs on agricultural equipment were reduced to 15% from 25%, benefiting soybean farmers. Farmer sentiment slipped to 119, with high input costs and prices as major concerns. Livestock futures posted losses, and severe storms are expected in the Midwest, posing hail and wind risks. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
