In today's podcast episode, Michael and Bret discuss how the changes in the National Weather Service may affect warning times. BAM Alerts play a crucial role in supplementing the NWS alerts and can ensure further safety of those in the paths of impactful weather.
Over the past several weeks, numerous severe storms have swept through the Midwest, leaving behind a trail of damage, injuries, and tragic loss of life. Tornadoes, high winds, and flash flooding have impacted multiple states, prompting widespread emergency responses and raising serious concerns about disaster preparedness.In the wake of these devastating events, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow has sharply criticized President Donald Trump and his administration. During a recent broadcast, Maddow attributed the storm-related fatalities in part to budget cuts enacted during Trump's time in office—specifically reductions in funding for the National Weather Service (NWS). She argued that diminished federal support may have hindered the NWS's ability to provide timely and accurate storm warnings, potentially putting more lives at risk. We discuss and dispute her claims.

We're continuing our discussion into the National Weather Service, examining its critical role in public safety and the political controversies surrounding its funding and effectiveness. We're also turning our attention to news out of New Jersey, where Rep. LaMonica McIver is now facing assault charges related to an incident at an ICE detention center. We'll explore what's known about the case so far, the broader implications for immigration enforcement practices, and how this development is sparking new conversations about accountability and oversight within federal detention facilities.

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they find out the pro's and con's of implanting your calves with products from Merck Animal Health. Plus updates on cattle trade with China and Mexico, market outlooks, cattle and hay for sale and lots more that you will only hear on this all 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 5, EPISODE 237 For Cow Calf Producers, Implants Have A Clear Advantage There's a perception that non-implanted calves garner a higher premium on sale day than their implanted counterparts. However, data consistently shows no difference in sale price between implanted and non-implanted calves. Why Use Ralgro From Merck Animal Health RALGRO® (zeranol implants) increases weaning weight by 23 pounds on average compared to non-implanted calves, according to Merck Animal Health. With results like that, it's easy to see how cattle implants at the cow-calf level can result in a favorable payday. U.S.–China Trade War Eases with Major Tariff Reductions on Meat Exports In a significant development for U.S. agriculture, the ongoing U.S.–China trade war eased this week following a new 90-day tariff reduction agreement. The deal brings temporary relief to U.S. meat exporters who have faced steep trade barriers in the Chinese market. Under the agreement, U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods will drop from 145% to 30%, while China's retaliatory tariffs on U.S. products, including meat, will fall from 125% to 10%. The reductions officially took effect on Wednesday, May 14th, signaling progress as both nations continue trade negotiations. China, the world's largest beef importer, remains a critical market for U.S. meat. In 2024 alone, U.S. exports to China included nearly $1.6 billion in beef, $1.1 billion in pork, and $490 million in poultry meat and products. This temporary tariff relief offers a much-needed boost to American meat producers and exporters while long-term trade talks continue. REFERENCE: https://www.meatingplace.com/Industry/News/Details/119098 USDA Closes U.S. Border to Livestock Imports Amid Northward Spread of New World Screwworm (NWS) The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has once again closed the southern border to live cattle, horses, and bison imports due to the ongoing detection and rapid spread of New World Screwworm or NWS, in southern Mexico. This latest decision follows continued reports of the parasite advancing further north than previously observed—up to 700 miles from the U.S. border. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins announced the immediate suspension of livestock imports through U.S. ports of entry along the southern border. This action comes after the border had temporarily reopened in early February following enhanced inspections and biosecurity protocols. The border was initially closed in November of the previous year due to similar concerns. The New World Screwworm (Cochliomyia hominivorax) poses a significant threat to livestock health and U.S. agriculture. Though eradicated from the United States in 1966, NWS has reemerged in remote areas of southern Mexico, including on farms with limited cattle movement. The pest's resurgence is being treated with high urgency by both U.S. and Mexican officials. To combat the spread, USDA-APHIS (Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service) is working closely with Mexican authorities to increase the release of sterile screwworm flies, the primary method for controlling the pest. This sterile fly technique had successfully helped maintain a barrier zone in southern Mexico and later extended into Panama, serving as a buffer for decades. However, over the past two years, the screwworm has advanced through Central America and back into Mexico, creating an escalating threat to U.S. livestock industries. USDA-APHIS and Mexican counterparts will continue aggressive surveillance, monitoring, and mitigation efforts to stop the spread. The border will remain closed until USDA determines that the risk has been sufficiently mitigated and disease metrics improve. The decision to suspend cattle imports from Mexico has led to a downward revision in projected U.S. beef production for 2025 and 2026, according to the agency's latest WAZ-de Report, World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates. The report cites tighter cattle supplies and reduced slaughter volumes tied to the import halt as key drivers behind the lower forecasts. Beef exports are also forecast lower as limited domestic supplies are expected to reduce U.S. competitiveness abroad.

Rain Gauge Rally 2025 continues with the National Weather Service asking the general public to engage as rainfall reporters and weather observers. Ben Jarboe finds out more about the staff behind the forecast by talking to Sarah Marquardt, Senior Service Hydrologist / Meteorologist in the NWS office in Sullivan. She explains how they network with other forecasters to pool information and knowledge for the best outcomes. The first day of spring is dealing a mix of precipitation across Wisconsin according to Stu Muck, meteorologist. Crawford County is at work pulling together final details for the 2025 Alice in Dairyland finals May 15-17. It's the first time the county has hosted this event according to Carol Roth, chair of the county host committee. She tells Stephanie Hoff that they had to commit not only to a great program - but also to substantial fund raising to act as host. E-15 looks closer than ever for year round use according to Patrick Seyer, vice president of the Missouri Corn Growers Association. He says one of the reasons it's looking better is because oil companies are embracing the current approach to offering the fuel year-round. Tonight anyone interested in the future of Wisconsin dairy is welcome at a public forum in Baraboo. Matt Ruark is the faculty director for the Dairy Innovation Hub. This program is funded to the tune of $7.2 million annually by the state of Wisconsin to encourage collaboration between UW-Madison, UW-River Falls and UW-Platteville in developing research that will propel Wisconsin dairy for the next generation. Ruark explains the successes he's seen. Matt Tranel, dairy specialist with EverAg in Platteville, joins Pam Jahnke. Cheese prices have been all over the map, but the U.S. remains competitive! Tranel highlights observations between the U.S., Europe and New Zealand. Friday we'll get another look at milk production, and while Tranel doesn't expect a huge change - he does expect more milk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The National Weather Service relies on volunteer weather observers to provide real-time weather data. That data helps meteorologists make more accurate predictions. Tim Halbach is the warning coordination meteorologist for NWS-Milwaukee. He says one weather observer in one town isn't enough because precipitation amounts can vary greatly between miles alone. NWS and Mid-West Farm Report are encouraging you to sign up to be a weather observer!

Join the team at www.patreon.com/stormfrontfreaks We have a late weatherfools moment entry from Winter Weather Expert, Tom Niziol: …The Old MacDonald Incident… Decades ago, the NWS offices taped their own broadcasts for the weather radio. Each morning, at the end of a midnight shift, around sunrise we would tape our daily forecast. At the end of that forecast we added an agricultural supplement for farming operations. Well, you tend to get squirrely after being up all night and one morning the 3 of us decided to give that morning forecast a little extra pizazz. As one guy read the forecast into the microphone to tape it, the other 2 stood in the background and made farmyard animal noises, chicken, cows, even little piggies. It was a masterpiece!! The taped forecast remained on the weather radio for about a 4 hour period. Don't know how many of our listeners actually heard the broadcast but there must have been some smiles and raised eyebrows over the incident. We do not know to this day whether or not our boss was aware of what we did, which we have always referred to as the Old MacDonald incident… and now you know the rest of the story… OUTBRK: Storm Chasing Simulator 10% OFF for LIFE when you subscribe to STORM-net and HurricaneVision at https://data.mesoscaleforecast.com/account/membership and use the code STORMFRONT at check-out Shop Storm Front Freaks and Outbreak/StormCat5 gear exclusively at thewxstore.com Subscribe to us on YouTube.com/stormfrontfreaks for news when we go live with Storm Front Freaks Outbreak coverage of storms, tornadoes, hurricanes and blizzards with Meteorologist StormCat5 (Brady Harris) #weatherfools: Phil - Not Serving the Canadian Bacon Phil - Blue Pill Storm Phil - Give it a Coat that Works!

We dive into the New World Screwworm, what it is, how we manage it and what it could do to the U.S. cattle industry. Plus we have the latest news, markets and so much more on this all 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 5, EPISODE 220 New World Screwworm: What Is It & What Could It Do To The Cattle Industry Beware! New World Screwworm In Cattle New World Screwworm: What you Need to Know On November 22, 2024, the Chief Veterinary Officer of Mexico informed the United States Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of a confirmed case of New World screwworm (NWS, Cochliomyia hominivorax). This alarming detection poses a serious threat to livestock and wildlife in North America. Here's what you need to know about this devastating pest and its implications. What Is New World Screwworm? New World screwworm is a highly destructive pest that affects livestock, other warm-blooded animals, and occasionally humans. NWS larvae infest animals through open wounds or mucous membranes, feeding on living tissue rather than dead tissue or carrion. If left untreated, infestations can be fatal. Key Facts About New World Screwworm: NWS is endemic to Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and parts of South America. It has been moving northward since 2023, spreading from Panama to Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, and now Mexico. U.S. Measures to Prevent NWS Spread To protect livestock and wildlife in the United States, APHIS is taking immediate action: Import Restrictions: Livestock imports, including equines, from Mexico are temporarily restricted. Horses originating from or residing in Mexico within 60 days prior to export will need to comply with stringent import protocols. Established Protocols: Pre-export treatment and examination. Treatment and examination upon arrival. A 7-day quarantine in an approved permanent import facility. These protocols follow the guidelines outlined in eCFR 9 CFR 93.308 and VSG 13424.1. Why Awareness Matters Illegally imported equines and stray animals crossing the border could introduce NWS into the United States. It is crucial for those handling livestock and pets to be vigilant. Signs of Screwworm Infestation: Draining or enlarging wounds. Signs of discomfort such as head shaking or irritated behavior. Presence of screwworm larvae (maggots) or eggs. Screwworm eggs are creamy-white and often found near the edges of wounds. Infestations commonly occur in: Navels of newborn animals. Nasal or eye openings. Genitalia and branding or dehorning wounds. What to Do If You Suspect Screwworm If you notice signs of infestation: Immediately contact your local accredited veterinarian, state animal health official, or APHIS veterinarian. Regularly inspect your pets and livestock, especially if they have wounds or show signs of discomfort. Conclusion The detection of New World screwworm in Mexico underscores the importance of vigilance in safeguarding livestock and wildlife. By adhering to import restrictions and monitoring animals closely, we can help prevent the spread of this devastating pest. Cattle & Agriculture Industry News Scientists Turn To AI To Reduce Cow Methane Researchers are considering using generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) protocols in order to develop new solutions to reduce methane emissions from cows. A team of scientists at USDA's Agricultural Research Service Livestock Nutrient Management Research Unit and the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the Iowa State University are using AI to sift through large computational models to develop new approaches to managing the methane emissions. The current focus involves the discovery of a group of compound molecules that can inhibit methane production in the largest of a cow's four stomach compartments. One effective molecule has been proven to reduce enteric methane production by up to 98%. AI also may fast-forward the laboratory research process and possibly address the potential costs of launching additional research, according to the scientists.

EPISODE 216 DETAILS Prevent Scours This Upcoming Calving Season Plus Cattle Industry News How To Prevent Calf Scours: Feed Farmatan Feed Farmatan To Prevent Scours This Calving Season Calving season is getting ready to start for many producers and for some others it is still a ways away yet. Regardless, we need to get a jump on scours and make sure each and every calf that hits the ground has the best chance of survival. A simple solution… FARMATAN from Imogene Ingredients. WHAT CAUSES SCOURS IN BEEF CATTLE/CALVES Clostridia-Enterotoxemia The most common form of Clostridium in cattle is caused by Clostridia perfringens. The gram-positive bacteria are a challenge due to its ability to form spores and lay dormant for long-periods of time. The bacteria reproduce by releasing spores into its environment (soil, feed, manure). The spores can even lay dormant in the animal's intestine until opportunity presents itself. Infection takes place either through ingestion of spores or through an open wound. The most severe cases happen within the first month of a calf's life, and can result in sudden death. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Bloody, Mucus Present, Bubbly Dehydrated Bloat Blindness Prevention/Treatment: Prevention can be difficult due to the Clostridia spores being extremely durable and present almost everywhere. Complete cleanout and disinfection between calves is helpful, but not always effective. A good vaccination program will reduce clinical disease. The best method is to develop good gut health and the immune system of the calf. Farmatan has been shown to strengthen the intestinal wall, helping to prevent infection from taking hold. Coccidiosis Cattle are host to numerous species of Coccidia, a single-celled protozoal parasite. Infection and clinical symptoms can happen any time during a calf's life, with the most severe reaction usually occurring between 3-6 weeks of age. The life-cycle of coccidia requires time to infect the intestine causing destruction of the mucosal and epithelial lining. The oocytes mature outside the host in warm, moist environments before being consumed, causing infection of a new host. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Watery, Bloody Depression Weight Loss Prevention/Treatment: Prevention of Coccidiosis is possible by keeping young calves separate from older animals, providing clean water and feed, and dry conditions. Isolation of infected animals is key to preventing transmission. Keeping the pen dry is the most important step a farmer/rancher can take in preventing Coccidiosis. Treatment can have a good impact on reducing secondary disease, and speeding up recovery time. Farmatan has been shown to disrupt the reproductive cycle of Coccidia; and may help strengthen the intestinal wall to prevent infection, in both the cow and calf. Coronavirus Bovine Coronavirus is a ubiquitous, envelope-viral disease, causing respiratory and enteric infection. There are many serotypes for this virus, making it difficult to test for, and create a vaccine. Coronavirus can present as either diarrhea and/or respiratory illness; transmitted through nasal discharge and/or feces. Animal reservoirs continue to spread the disease, and make eradication almost impossible. Clinical disease will likely occur between days 10-14, and present for up to 4 days. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Watery Nasal Discharge Coughing Prevention/Treatment: Prevention is difficult due to wild animals transmitting the disease. Keeping wild animals out of animal enclosures is essential. Isolation of infected animals is critical to preventing the spread of Coronavirus. Adequate colostrum intake, along with a good vaccination program will help prevent clinical disease. Learn more about the positive effects of Farmtan's active ingredient on Coronavirus HERE. Cryptosporidium Cryptosporidium Parvum is a single-celled parasite responsible for causing infection in young calves. The infection takes place within the first four weeks of a calves' life, afterwards immunity has developed within the calf. The parasite is either passed from the cow or spread through infected water sources. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Watery, Bloody, Mucus present Colic Depression Prevention/Treatment: Good sanitary conditions, especially clean water is essential in preventing transmission of cryptosporidium. Isolation of sick calves will help reduce the effect on the overall herd. There is some good effect of calves given adequate colostrum, however this is likely helping by reducing other pathogenic loads rather than a direct effect on Cryptosporidium, itself. Farmatan fed prior to calving has been shown to disrupt the life-cycle and reduce transmission from the cow. The direct action of Farmatan on the parasite makes it an excellent choice for treating calves. Learn more about the positive effect of Farmatan's active ingredient HERE. E Coli Escherichia Coli is a bacterial infection that affects calves within the first week of their life. The bacteria colonize in the lower intestine and produce a toxin. The toxin causes excessive secretion of fluids. The zoonotic disease has special importance in food safety and human health. Colostrum and natural immunity are often not sufficient in preventing infection in cases of high bacterial concentrations. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Creamy, Yellow Abdominal Pains Fever Vomiting Prevention/Treatment: The best prevention methods for E. Coli include: clean water, dry bedding/environment, isolation of infected animals, and vaccination. Treatment with antibiotics and oral fluids have great benefits in reducing clinical symptoms of the disease. Farmatan has been shown to reduce bacterial load and help prevent infection. Learn more about the positive effects of Farmatan's active ingredient HERE. Rotavirus Rotavirus in calves is caused by a virus belonging to the Reoviridae family, as a non-envelope RNA virus. Rotavirus is thought to be the most common cause of neonatal diarrhea in calves. The virus tends to affect calves between the age of 1-day-old up to a month, with most cases presenting within the first week of life. Shedding and reinfection can happen in older calves and cows. Clinical symptoms are rarely present after the first month of life; older animals tend to either be carriers or asymptomatic. The majority of herds have some level present, with transmission likely happening during or shortly after birth. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Pale Yellow, Bloody Dehydrated Dull calves Reluctant to drink Prevention/Treatment: The ideal scenario is to prevent infection through, sanitary facilities (calving barn), outdoor calf housing, and a good vaccination program. Colostrum will provide much needed antibodies, protecting the calf before their immune system is fully developed to combat the disease. Farmatan fed prior to calving can help reduce the pathogen load of the cow, reducing the likelihood of transmission. Farmatan supplemented in the milk has been shown to decrease the virus' ability to cause infection and clinical disease. The best treatment for calves already presenting clinical disease is to administer oral fluids/electrolytes to rehydrate the calf. Learn more about the positive effect of Farmatan's active ingredient HERE. Salmonella Salmonella infection of cattle is caused by a variety of species within the family. While the disease is uncommon in cattle with little effect on calf health, it has massive implications for human health and food safety. The bacteria spreads through direct contact or contaminated feed & water. This disease is highly regulated by the USDA. The most severe cases of salmonella affect calves between the ages of 7-10 days old. Clinical Signs Diarrhea - Bloody (flakes of slough tissue), Watery, Mucus present Lethargic Fever Prevention/Treatment: Prevention is always the best option: provide clean water, feed, and bedding. Isolate infected animals, ensure adequate colostrum intake, and develop a vaccination program with your veterinarian. Treatment with antibiotics and fluids (oral or intravenous) greatly increases the survival rate of calves infected with Salmonella. Farmatan has been shown to help reduce the likelihood of infection by protecting the gut, and reduce recovery time of infected animals.

Cattle Industry News USDA Gives Bleak Timeline For Mexico Cattle Restrictions According to MeatingPlace.Com, the USDA has confirmed there will be no holiday gifts for Mexican cattle producers this year. Earlier this month, APHIS restricted all Mexican animal commodity imports following the detection of New World screwworm (NWS) in a cow in the southern Mexican state of Chiapas. Mexico's chief veterinary officer alerted USDA in late November. Dr. Rosemary Sifford, the agency's chief veterinary officers, stated to media that APHIS's restrictions will “likely” remain in place through the holidays, with “full resumption of live animal movements” after incremental changes in early 2025. She went on to say that while the U.S. continues to work very closely with Mexico and has agreed to protocols, it will take some time to implement these due to multiple steps needed to resume trade. Additionally, USDA announced $165 million in emergency funding to protect U.S. livestock from NWS, which are fly larvae that infest living tissue and cause infection. Canada Plans For U.S. Trade War Canada's federal and state governments are planning measures in response to President-elect Donald Trump's threatened tariffs. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with provincial leaders to discuss retaliatory actions. Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said after the meeting that "a number of premiers spoke out strongly in favour of a robust Canadian response to unjustified tariffs." In a social media post last month, Trump accused Canada and Mexico of allowing drugs and illegal immigrants into the United States and vowed to slap a 25% tariff on imports from both neighbors immediately on taking office on Jan. 20. Such an act would contradict the 2020 US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a modest update of the preceding North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which Trump signed during his previous term in the White House. Low U.S. Beef Inventory Argues Against Tariffs A former Canadian Cattle Association president Dave Solverson has urged farmers north of the border to utilize their relationships with fellow beef producers to try to counter US President-elect Donald Trump's threatened tariffs. Solverson said with herds in both countries at their smallest in many decades, extending possible 25% tariffs on Canadian imports makes little sense in the beef business. He said sales of Canadian stock to U.S. packers and feedlot operators are an important source to fill in increasing production gaps especially in northern states, according to Solverson, who led the Canadian Cattle Association from 2014-16. Solverson recalled that the community of North American beef producers forged alliances a decade ago to oppose mandatory country-of-origin labelling. Those coalitions with both state and national producer groups “really proved beneficial for both sides,” he said. Canadian farmers were able to convince their U.S. counterparts “about how important it was that they could top up their pens with a good group of Canadian cattle.” Questions About USDA's Electronic EID Requirements Answered There are still lots of questions about USDA's Electronic EID requirements and if you are confused don't worry you are not alone. Merck Animal Health has fielded many questions about the new electronic (EID) rules for livestock moving across state lines. As a leading provider of EID tags and readers through their AllFlex Brand, Merck Animal Health is helping support cattle producers in their decision-making with expertise and solutions. As part of that effort, Merck Animal Health has provided some clarity to the tagging system. We have all of those links and easy to follow information HERE.
