Emery, Utah, rancher Kirk Christiansen says the lack of water in his town is changing how he does his job raising cattle. He joins us. And, amid a blistering drought, the federal government is drilling unpermitted water wells in New Mexico for use in border wall construction, according to the Office of the State Engineer. Customs and Border Protection says it doesn't need permission to tap the groundwater. Ranchers are concerned their already fragile aquifer will be pumped dry. Here & Now's Peter O'Dowd reports.

#992 Trellus started as a marketplace meant to save mom-and-pop shops from Amazon — then the market spoke, and founder Adam Haber listened. In part 1 of this two-part episode, Adam, co-founder and CEO of Trellus, joins Millionaire University to share how his company pivoted from a same-day local marketplace into a same-day regional delivery service for heavier, more sensitive parcels — now focused on three unexpected verticals: wineries, direct-to-consumer ranchers, and food banks. Adam opens up about the humbling process of abandoning an idea he was emotionally attached to, why "what people say and what they do are two different things," and how his team built a driver network that pays living wages and earns real loyalty. He also dives into his philosophy on giving back, his "10-20-30-40" model for balancing charity, employees, investors, and growth, and why chasing endless wealth without purpose leads nowhere! What we discuss with Adam: + Trellus's pivot from marketplace to regional delivery + Serving wineries, ranchers, and food banks + Why the original marketplace idea failed + How Trellus vets and pays drivers + Comparing Trellus to DoorDash and UPS + The meaning behind the "Trellus" name + Adam's "10-20-30-40" giving-back model + The Peter Luger's Theory of wealth + Adam's background as a commodity trader + Embracing pivots as an entrepreneur Thank you, Adam!

#993 Capital, capital, and capital — that's what Adam Haber says it takes to build a business, and in part 2 of this two-part episode, he doesn't hold back on the hard truths. Adam, co-founder and CEO of Trellus, returns to Millionaire University to talk AI's role in logistics-heavy businesses, why he believes the market will eventually narrow to just a few dominant AI players (much like the auto industry and dot-com boom before it), and how to know when — and where — to expand to a new location. He shares his hiring philosophy of prioritizing kindness over resume lines, why he refuses to keep a toxic employee around no matter how hard it is to let them go, and the real story behind Trellus almost shutting down before finally finding its footing. Adam closes with the one question he wishes more interviewers would ask founders: what was your biggest setback, and how did you handle it? What we discuss with Adam: + AI as a tool, not a replacement + Predicted AI market consolidation + Lessons from the dot-com boom + When to expand to new locations + Asset-light vs. asset-heavy expansion + Delegating and trusting partners + Why toxic employees must go fast + Hiring for kindness over resume + Acquiring early customer evangelists + Capital as the top startup priority Thank you, Adam!

The San Joaquin Valley's grape industry will once again take center stage this fall as the Whole Vine Festival returns to Fresno State on October 24, celebrating the region's table grape, raisin, and wine grape industries while connecting consumers with California agriculture. On today's episode of the AgNet News Hour, Whole Vine Festival Founder and Director Vickie Goudreau shared how the event has grown into a celebration of both agriculture and Valley pride. Now entering its fourth year, the festival was created to showcase one of the San Joaquin Valley's defining industries while helping consumers better understand where their food comes from. Goudreau said the event also serves as a reminder that the Valley is home to one of the world's most productive agricultural regions. "We want to celebrate what's beautiful about our region," Goudreau said. "Agriculture has built the San Joaquin Valley, and we want people to be proud of that." The festival highlights the Valley's unique distinction as the only region in the United States that produces table grapes, raisins, and wine grapes in the same area. Throughout the day, visitors can meet growers, wineries, agricultural organizations, and businesses while learning more about the region's diverse grape industry. One of Goudreau's primary goals is introducing children and families to agriculture through hands-on educational activities. The festival's Kids Zone includes planting demonstrations, pollinator education, gardening activities, and opportunities for children to learn about healthy food choices in an interactive environment. She also hopes to involve more FFA, 4-H, and Young Farmers & Ranchers members in future festivals, saying older students can have a powerful influence by teaching younger children about agriculture. Beyond agriculture, the event showcases local culture with live music, food trucks, artisan vendors, and culinary competitions featuring California grapes. This year's festival will include a charcuterie competition, grape-inspired menu items from local food trucks, and wine and beer gardens highlighting regional products. Goudreau also believes the festival helps bridge the growing disconnect between urban residents and agriculture. As more people move into California's Central Valley without farming backgrounds, she hopes events like Whole Vine create a better understanding of the technology, innovation, and people behind the region's food production. "We need to connect our local community with the reality of how amazing our agricultural industry really is," she said. The Whole Vine Festival will be held Saturday, October 24, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Fresno State. Admission, parking, and children's activities are all free. Additional information, sponsorship opportunities, and event details are available at thewholevine.com. Listen to the full interview below or on your favorite podcast app.

Katie Lacey never planned to return to her family's fifth-generation California cattle ranch. After earning degrees at Oklahoma State University and building a career away from home, life took an unexpected turn that brought her back to the ranch.In this episode of Next Gen Podcast with Erin Anderson and Kellan Heavican, Katie shares how she's finding her place in the family operation while balancing an off-farm career in the cattle feed industry. She discusses why diversification has become essential for young producers, the realities of ranching in California, healthcare and off-farm income, the value of horses in their operation, and why succession planning needs to happen long before the next generation takes over.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Public Lands Ranchers Asked to Weigh In on BLM Grazing Proposal
The California Dept. of Fish and Wildlife awarded California Farm Bureau $1.1 million for payments to ranchers who've lost livestock due to wolf attacks, and the NCGA released a new strategy outlining how the U.S. corn industry can build demand for new domestic and international markets.
The goal with this BBQ was to show appreciation for all these folks in the agricultural fields.
If you want to understand the Texas Panhandle, spend some time talking with a rancher. Donnie Trammell comes from a long line of them. His grandfather was a rancher. His father was a rancher. Donnie has spent his life raising cattle, and now his sons and grandchildren are carrying that tradition forward. In this episode of Hey Amarillo, Donnie shares the story of a family rooted in the land and committed to feeding their community. We talk about the realities of modern ranching, the challenges facing agricultural producers today, and what popular culture gets right—and wrong—about life on the ranch. We also discuss how the Trammell family has expanded beyond cattle through local meat production and retail, helping connect Panhandle families directly to food raised close to home. Through ventures like Tir Bluen Farms and 6 Ranchers storefronts, they're creating new ways for consumers to support local agriculture while learning more about where their food comes from. This conversation is a tribute to a way of life that has shaped our region for generations—and to the people working to ensure it continues for generations to come.
Today on the Casual Cattle Conversations podcast, Shaye Wanner talks with ag tech consultants Chelsea Good (Good & Associates) and Jared Wareham (Horizon Venture Management) about how cow-calf producers can decide which technologies are worth adopting. They stress that many tools enter agriculture from outside the industry and may be “solutions looking for a problem,” so ranchers should evaluate technology like a toolbox and demand ROI, especially in an asset-rich, cash-poor business. Examples include mismatched expensive tags for sale barns versus value-based traceability programs, strategic uses of GPS and estrus-detection tags (often for herd bulls or specific heifer programs), virtual fencing's geography-dependent economics, and emerging biometrics, camera applications, and gene-edited pest control. They also discuss digital recordkeeping and payment systems as adoption challenges without policy drivers, and encourage producers to share pain points and explore tech that supports long-term generational sustainability.

After a century-long absence, gray wolves are returning to California. Biologists estimate some 70 wolves are living in the state, and recently, a female wolf traveled into Los Angeles County, the first such sighting. But their comeback is not without controversy. Ranchers in rural counties say they're losing livestock to predation, while conservationists say the wolves bring ecological benefits as they reclaim part of their historic range. How do you think the state should manage our wolves?

A new study from S&P Global and commissioned by U.S. Farmers and Ranchers in Action (USFRA), "Fueling Agriculture: Biofuels as the Catalyst," finds that biofuels have the potential to restore long-term profitability to American farms and drive investment in rural communities; unlock demand for sustainable feedstocks, creating a market that rewards farmers for pioneering modern farm practices; and strengthen food, economic and energy security on a global scale. It could also help motivate the U.S. Senate to pass legislation allowing year-round, nationwide sales of E15 (15% ethanol-blended fuel). In this episode of the ZimmCast, hear from USFRA CEO Kevin Burkum; USFRA vice chairman and Maryland farmer Chip Bowling; Kevin Lindemer, S&P Global Energy; Kelsey Barnes, USDA Senior Advisor for Rural Development and Biofuels; Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Tina Smith (D-MN).

The Land Podcast - The Pursuit of Land Ownership and Investing
Welcome to the land podcast, a platform for people looking to educate themselves in the world of land ownership, land investing, staying up to date with current land trends in the Midwest, and hearing from industry experts and professionals. On today's episode, we are back in the studio with Alec Bean. We discuss: Section 180 has existed since the late 1950s. Excess soil fertility can create significant tax deductions. Most farmland owners have never utilized the deduction. Recreational farms with tillable acres can qualify. Timberland generally does not qualify. Active participation creates larger tax advantages. Some buyers use soil tests before making offers. Midwest farms commonly show $500-$2,500/acre in value. One client generated over $2.5 million in deductions. Data center money is creating major farmland demand. And so much more!

A move from Houston to a cattle ranch in rural Texas was never meant to alter the course of her life so completely, but that is exactly what happened for Renee King-Sonnen, founder of Rowdy Girl Sanctuary. What began as a new chapter alongside her husband became something far more complicated as her relationship with the animals deepened and she confronted realities on the ranch she could no longer ignore, reshaping everything from her marriage to her identity and sense of purpose. That internal shift led to the creation of a sanctuary for rescued animals and the path she now walks in advocacy and education, a journey she captures in her memoir Rowdy Girl: Confessions of a Vegan Cattle Rancher. In this conversation, Renee also opens up about deeply personal experiences from her past as we explore awakening, resilience, and the courage it takes to rebuild when everything familiar no longer aligns with what you believe. What we discuss: What it really takes to make a life-changing transformation. The challenges of Renee's childhood, family struggles, and how adversity shaped the person she would become. The tipping point that led Renee to question everything she believed about animals. How carnism and lifelong conditioning shape the way we see, use, and think about animals. The incredible story of Brokeleg the cow, who escaped a slaughter-bound truck not once, but twice, and found a second chance at life. What life is really like for cows raised in the cattle industry. How Renee raised the money to purchase her husband's cattle and turn a dream of sanctuary into reality. How Renee's husband's evolving relationship with animals changed not only his life, but also his relationships with family, friends, and the ranching community.

Is diversifying your farm or ranch actually costing you money? In this episode of Farming Without the Bank, Mary Jo digs into a question that came up four times in one week: should you take your farm profits and diversify into real estate, rentals, or another business — or double down on what you already know? Mary Jo shares her own hard-learned lessons from managing Airbnbs, long-term rentals, and side businesses — and why she's now pulling back to focus on what she actually loves: agriculture and infinite banking.

Should we be worried about the New World Screwworm? We talked to a local rancher to get the latest news on Arizona farms.
The cattle market is rewriting the record books, but where do we go from here? Bailey Ballou with Superior Livestock Auction joins Progressive Cattle to discuss current market trends, buyer behavior, value-added premiums and what producers should be thinking about as Superior's Summer Run approaches. Plus, hear why relationships, reputation and marketing still matter in today's high-priced environment. This episode is sponsored by Superior Livestock Auction. Since 1987, Superior Livestock Auction has been the pioneer and leader in video livestock marketing. With a network of more than 400 representatives and the nation's largest buyer base, Superior helps cattle producers market their livestock through competitive nationwide auctions. By selling cattle directly from the ranch, producers benefit from true price discovery, reduced stress and shrink, and access to buyers from across the country. Each year, Superior markets more than 1.7 million head of cattle, connecting ranchers and buyers through trusted relationships and innovative technology.
How much are farmers getting hit by rising costs - and now things like screwworm? Is it going to keep getting tougher in the near future? Michael Deliberto, agricultural economist with the LSU AgCenter, joins us.
Big Bend Borderlands Ministry: Water Conservation, Rancher Collaboration & Creation Care in Marfa Traveling between Alpine and Marfa, Texas, Bishop Michael Hunn of the Diocese of the Rio Grande rides with the Reverend Mike Wallens, who serves Borderlands Ministry and five Big Bend congregations, as they head to Mexico to meet the mayor of Ojinaga and visit two shelters the ministry has supported for years. They discuss environmental work in the Big Bend focused on drought and grasslands, including collaboration with Sul Ross State University's Borderlands Research Institute and interim head Billy Tarrant, who convenes water conservation efforts, encourages measuring ranch water levels to assess aquifers, and promotes land practices that slow runoff, reduce flooding, and recharge groundwater to sustain streams and bird migration habitat. Wallens also describes a Creation Care grant-funded tree-planting project in Marfa's low-income housing, with trees provided and planted with help from an Apache group and maintained by church members and residents. 00:00 Road to Marfa 00:31 Bishop on the Borderlands 01:18 Water and Grasslands 02:28 Ranchers and Aquifers 03:14 Wildlife and Migration 04:13 Restoring Water Flow 05:19 Tree Planting in Marfa 06:25 Closing Reflections

The American ranch is under siege. Fifth-generation Arizona rancher Casey Murph joins me to expose how state-level mandates are seizing vital grazing lands to build foreign-owned solar farms — threatening our food security and property rights. At a time of record-high beef prices and shrinking cattle herds, rural America is facing a multifront assault. From the expansion of industrial solar installations to the massive energy and land demands of new tech data centers, government-manipulated monopolies are pushing out small landowners. Casey Murph breaks down the realities of the Inflation Reduction Act, the devastating environmental impact of clearing topsoil for renewable energy, and what this venture socialism means for the future of the American food supply. He also warns that solar farms are bringing in illegal alien workers and riffraff to transform the serenity of rural America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is a live episode recorded at the 2026 Great Plains Stakeholder Workshop, hosted by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. The workshop brought together many of the country's leading grasslands conservationists, scientists, funders, and policy experts to tackle a huge question: what would it look like to create a bold, practical, long-term plan for conserving North America's grasslands over the next 30 years? My guests are two people helping to lead that effort: Dr. Holly Bamford, Chief Conservation Officer at the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (known as NFWF for short), and Marshall Johnson, Chief Conservation Officer for the National Audubon Society. Both have spent years working at the intersection of science, conservation, agriculture, and partnership-building, and both bring a realistic but hopeful perspective to the future of the Great Plains. In this conversation, we dig into the current state of the Great Plains and grasslands conservation more broadly– from grassland loss and declining bird populations to the creative partnerships helping ranchers, nonprofits, businesses, and government agencies work together toward solutions. We discuss the importance of voluntary conservation, the complicated economics facing ranching communities, the role of programs like the Farm Bill, and why grass-based agriculture and healthy wildlife habitat are far more interconnected than many people realize. Holly and Marshall also share stories from their own lives that explain how they each became so deeply connected to these landscapes– from prairie chicken blinds in Minnesota to the wide-open grasslands of the American West. More than anything, this conversation is about long-term thinking. What does it look like to create a 30-year vision for one of the most ecologically important and underappreciated landscapes in North America? What gives these conservation leaders hope? And what keeps them up at night? There's a lot of realism in this discussion, but there's also a surprising amount of optimism, practicality, and momentum. I learned a ton from this conversation, and I think you will too. Be sure to check out the episode notes for links to the organizations, initiatives, and resources we discuss throughout the episode.
