Podcasts about Poultry

Mike Guebert of Terra Farma in northwest Oregon joins Cal to share how he and his wife built a multi-species, direct-to-consumer farm over more than 20 years, from early days as first-generation farmers to running meat CSA sales, improving grazing systems, and teaching others through the Oregon Pasture Network.  In This Episode, We Explore:  Starting a first-generation farm from a blank slate with invasives, no fencing, and rough infrastructure  Moving from vegetarian to raising and processing poultry on-farm  Building a multi-species operation including beef, pork, sheep, goats, poultry, and more  Managing grazing in a high rainfall, dry-summer region without irrigation  Chicken tractor evolution, daily moves, and using a winch system for efficiency and injury prevention  Marketing changes over time including launching a meat CSA in 2020 and the plan to transition away from it  Stopping raw milk sales after losing liability insurance and regaining time and flexibility  Moving toward a more seasonal, grass-only beef model to reduce winter feeding  Teaching and producer support through pasture walks, cohorts, mentorship, and events with Oregon Pasture Network  Conservation district work including farmland protection tools like conservation easements  Why This Episode Matters  This conversation is a practical look at how farm enterprises, marketing, and even personal capacity change over time, and why building community learning opportunities like pasture walks and cohorts can help producers avoid common pitfalls while improving grazing, profitability, and quality of life.  Resources Mentioned  Acres USA annual conference  Ranching for Profit School  Executive Link (Ranching for Profit)  Oregon State University Small Farms Conference  Oregon Pasture Network pasture walks  Oregon FarmLink (Friends of Family Farmers)  Find Out More  Terra Farma website | terrafarmaers.net  Terra Farma Instagram | @terrafarmaers  Oregon Pasture Network | oregonpasturenetwork.org  Friends of Family Farmers | friendsoffamilyfarmers.org  East Multnomah Soil and Water Conservation District | emswcd.org   Looking for grass-based breeders? Explore the Grass Based Genetics directory.Upcoming Grazing EventsNoble Profitability Essentials - Jefferson City, Mo, March 24-25, 2026Visit our Sponsors:Noble Research InstituteRedmond Agriculture Grazing Grass LinksWebsiteCommunity (on Facebook)Original Music by Louis Palfrey

Gut health gets talked about constantly in poultry production, but what do we really mean by it? In this episode, we move beyond buzzwords and single-additive thinking to explore gut health as a system. We discuss what true balance looks like in modern flocks, early warning signals before performance drops, and why breakdown often starts upstream in feed hygiene, early-life exposure, or processing stress. We unpack how to stack and time nutritional tools instead of chasing silver bullets, and how to manage biological variability without overreacting. Practical, honest, and operationally grounded — this is a smarter conversation about protecting gut resilience long term.

Valentine's Day is here, and while roses get the spotlight, the real story is in the markets. Ribeyes and tenderloins are holding steady, strips keep climbing, pork bellies are inching higher, and poultry hasn't lost its upward momentum.

Middle meats are steady, strips keep climbing, and thin meats are gaining momentum earlier than usual. Grinds paused — but don't get too comfortable.POULTRY: Strong production and strong demand keep prices trending higher. Breasts and tenders lead, wings finally steady. Avian flu cases slowed, but the story isn't over.GRAINS: Soy is making a move thanks to biofuel demand. Corn is flat, wheat trying to find direction. Feels like the start of something — we'll see.PORK: Bellies climbed again to $135 and are building into spring. Loins still a value, butts and ribs inching up.

From tightening beef supplies and climbing poultry prices to the first real lift in pork bellies and a dairy market finding its footing, this week feels like a shift. Nothing is running away yet, but momentum is building, and the next few weeks could look very different.BEEF: Tight production is keeping beef supported, with strips still climbing and Valentine's Day putting a floor under ribeyes and tenderloins. With a shrinking herd, there may be more upward pressure ahead.POULTRY: Avian Flu losses jumped again, already lifting egg prices, while chicken continues its steady climb – and there's still room to run.GRAINS: Heavy supplies kept corn flat and wheat slightly lower, with soy oil's push higher stalling – but this story isn't over yet.PORK: Bellies finally moved higher and should keep climbing into spring, pulling bacon along with them. This run may just be getting started.DAIRY: Butter led another week of gains as the dairy market firmed up, and the momentum could continue.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Markets are slowly building momentum as Valentine's Day demand begins to take shape. Beef inches higher, chicken keeps climbing, pork waits for its next move, dairy tests a rally, and grains remain quiet. The coming weeks will show whether this momentum sticks — or stalls.BEEF: Production pulled back last week as middle meats begin their seasonal climb toward Valentine's Day. With strips already charging higher and end cuts showing mixed signals, this market feels ready for its next move.POULTRY: Chicken prices keep pushing higher with no real resistance in sight. But a major jump in avian flu losses adds a new wildcard that could shift the story quickly.GRAINS: Grain markets continue drifting sideways, weighed down by ample supply. Until demand shows up in force, this quiet pattern looks set to continue.PORK: Bellies hesitated just as a rally seemed ready to start, leaving pork in value territory a bit longer. The question now is how long this pause really lasts.DAIRY: Dairy keeps rallying, but recent trading raises doubts about how strong this move really is. The next couple of weeks should reveal whether this run has legs.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Winter's grip on the markets is starting to loosen. Beef has turned higher sooner than expected, chicken keeps climbing, pork begins its spring setup, dairy shows signs of life, and grains remain frozen in place. This early shift may be subtle — but it could shape the market mood for the weeks ahead.BEEF: The post-holiday slide is officially over, and beef is turning back up sooner than expected. Middle meats are leading the shift, with the rest of the complex quietly following. Any values left may not stick around long.POULTRY: Chicken keeps climbing as strong demand meets steady production. With avian flu still present and prices already moving, this market looks set to stay on the offensive for a bit.GRAINS: Grains remain stuck in neutral, weighed down by plenty of supply and no clear catalyst. Until something changes, this market looks content to wait.PORK: The window for cheap bellies has closed, and bacon prices are setting up for a steady spring climb. Pork still offers value — but the direction is starting to shift.DAIRY: Butter finally found its footing, and dairy may be ready to turn the corner. Whether this is the start of a rebound or just a pause is the next story to watch.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

The California Department of Food and Agriculture has lifted its exhibition ban following improved H5N1 conditions.

Nearly 1 in 5 urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by E. coli strains that originated in contaminated meat, confirming what earlier research has shown Poultry is the main source of these dangerous bacteria, with chicken and turkey accounting for more than 74% of meat-linked UTI cases, while all retail meats showed high contamination levels These bacteria, known as extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC), survive processing and cooking to enter your body, where they colonize your urinary tract and can spread to your bloodstream Overuse of antibiotics in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) fuels the growth of drug-resistant E. coli, creating infections that are harder to treat and more likely to require hospitalization You can protect yourself by avoiding CAFO meats, choosing grass fed and regeneratively raised options, improving food and personal hygiene, and supporting urinary health with methylene blue, cranberries, and D-mannose
