In this week's episode Kerry Lonergan catches up with Professor Derrell Peel of Oklahoma State about the U.S. beef market: record‑high prices amid multi‑decade low cattle inventories, limited herd rebuilding, and the roles of drought, feedlot practices and profitability. Professor Peel also discusses rising imports for lean grinding beef, trade disruptions with Mexico and Canada, Brazil's growing production, and why short‑term policy moves are unlikely to quickly change supply or retail prices.

Leadership does not get easier—leaders get better at doing hard things. For Kristin Peck, navigating uncertainty requires discipline, a growth mindset, and the mental resilience to move forward without having all the answers. In this episode of C-Suite Perspectives, David Young, President of The CEO Center of The Conference Board, is joined by Kristin Peck, CEO of Zoetis, to explore how she leads the world's largest animal health company through rapid change. Together, they discuss how purpose and curiosity have shaped Peck's career, why culture is a competitive advantage, and how Zoetis uses innovation to address emerging needs in animal health. They also examine the connection between healthy animals, food security, and economic opportunity—and why empathy and "frustrated optimism" are essential qualities for today's business leaders. This episode is part of the Leadership in Challenging Times series from The CEO Center at The Conference Board. The series features discussions with the business leaders who are recipients of the Distinguished Leadership Awards.
Western Australian cattle vet Enoch Bergman has become a prominent campaigner for better understanding and management of pestivirus - a disease costing the industry an estimated $100 million each year. In this interview with podcast host Kerry Lonergan and Beef Central's Jon Condon, he talks through latest approaches to disease management and prevention, including greater levels of pesti screening as part of broader genomic testing work. He also outlines results from a recent study into Bovine Respiratory Disease, and offers some comment about the risks to the protein industry from the recent arrival of H1N1 Bird Flu, and how the industry is seeking to attract more young vets into large animal practises in the bush.

What is the ideal age at first calving for Holstein heifers? Brad examines a Zoetis study of nearly 130,000 cows from 74 dairy herds. Although heifers calving at 26 months produced slightly more projected first-lactation milk, those calving around 23 months produced more cumulative milk through two lactations, remained in the herd longer, and generated greater modeled net income.Replacement risk increased substantially as calving age rose, reaching about 35% for heifers calving at 27 months compared with 17% at 21 months. By 27 months, modeled net income was approximately $650 lower than for the 23-month group because the small milk-production advantage did not offset additional rearing costs and earlier removal from the herd.The findings support targeting 22 to 23 months—but only when heifers are adequately grown. Brad explains why producers should monitor body weight alongside age, evaluate the costly tail of late-calving heifers, and consider cumulative production and survival rather than relying solely on projected 305-day milk.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory
In this episode Kerry Lonergan speaks with Paul Holmes a Court of the Heytesbury Group about his company's purchase of Livestock Express's 11‑ship fleet, the strategic reasons behind the acquisition, and how it supports the northern live export trade and the broader Australian beef In May, Heytesbury took delivery of 11 livestock vessels previously operated by Livestock Express, in a significant transaction that places a major part of Australia's live export supply chain back into Australian hands. On other topics, Mr Holmes a Court talks about the genetic direction being taken on Heytesbury's Victoria River Downs, in a region where Wagyu bulls are being seen with increasing frequency, the sequence of excellent seasons the VRD region has experienced, and his ongoing confidence in the live export trade.

Cattle Industry News The Senate Agriculture Committee Will Get Another Shot At Moving The Farm Bill Forward Committee Chairman John Boozman of Arkansas says senators will return in September for another vote after the Farm Bill package failed to advance. Boozman says he expects the committee to vote on the same bill, and he believes Democrats could face pressure from farmers, ranchers and rural communities that want the Farm Bill completed. A major sticking point is SNAP, or food assistance. Democrats want to delay a requirement that states begin sharing the cost of SNAP benefits by two years. Boozman offered a one-year delay, along with other bipartisan provisions. The bill also ran into a numbers problem. Senator Mitch McConnell, who is on medical leave, was able to vote by proxy on amendments. But Senate rules don't allow proxy votes to determine whether a bill advances to the Senate floor. McConnell's absence, along with another Republican voting by proxy, helped prevent the bill from moving forward. During the markup, senators also approved an amendment bringing back mandatory country-of-origin labeling for beef, known as MCOOL. The vote was 16 to 7. It marks the first time the Senate has taken action on beef MCOOL since the 2008 Farm Bill. Boozman says getting the Farm Bill passed before the midterm elections will take a “miracle” — but says it can happen with cooperation. REFERENCE: https://farmpolicynews.illinois.edu/2026/08/senate-farm-bill-fails-ag-committee-to-vote-again-in-september/ Tight Beef Supplies Cut U.S. Exports, But Global Demand Remains Strong U.S. beef exports were down during the first half of 2026, as tight domestic supplies limited the amount of beef available for export. According to USDA data compiled by the U.S. Meat Export Federation, beef exports from January through June totaled about 546,000 metric tons, worth 4-point-74 billion dollars. That's a 9 percent drop in volume compared to the first half of 2025. But strong beef prices around the world helped limit the decline in export value to just 4 percent. The June numbers were actually more encouraging. Export volume was down less than 6 percent, while export value increased nearly 3 percent from June of last year. China continues to be a major challenge for U.S. beef. American beef has been almost completely shut out of China since March of 2025. Excluding China, U.S. beef exports are down just 1 percent, while export value is actually up 6 percent. Exports to some of the biggest markets were lower. Japan was down 8 percent, South Korea dropped 10 percent, Mexico was down 1 percent, and Canada fell 14 percent. But there were some bright spots. Hong Kong beef exports jumped 83 percent, while shipments to Taiwan increased 11 percent. USMEF President Dan Halstrom says global demand for U.S. beef remains very resilient, even with record-high prices. And with potential changes in China's beef import policies later this year, exporters see opportunities ahead — if trade barriers can be overcome. REFERENCE: https://meatingplace.com/tight-beef-supplies-weighing-on-us-exports/ Early Weaning Can Help Ranchers Beat Drought Drought is hitting many major cow-calf areas, and with summer heat spreading across the country, producers are looking for ways to stretch forage supplies. One option is early weaning. Calves can be weaned at around 90 to 120 days old, taking pressure off cows and pastures during late summer and fall. Zoetis veterinarian Dr. Jess Hinrichs says young calves can adapt quickly to dry lots, especially during the warmer months. Before weaning, calves should ideally be vaccinated two to three weeks ahead of time to give their immune systems time to respond. When it's time to wean, producers should provide shade, bedding and plenty of clean, fresh water. Young calves can dehydrate quickly in hot weather. Nutrition is also critical. Calves weighing less than 400 pounds need a high-quality diet with good forage, along with the right balance of energy and protein to support rumen development and growth. Dr. Hinrichs and nutritionist Dr. Blaine Corners recommend working closely with your veterinarian and nutritionist to develop an early-weaning plan. In a drought year, early weaning can help protect your cows, stretch your forage and keep those calves gaining pounds. Border Reopening Planned As Screwworm Safeguards Expend The U.S. is preparing to reopen part of the southern border to Mexican cattle later this month. The Douglas, Arizona, port is scheduled to begin accepting cattle from Sonora on August 24, following more than a year of restrictions tied to New World screwworm. Officials say cattle will face enhanced inspections, treatment, electronic identification and traceability requirements before entering the U.S. The reopening is expected to help restore cattle supplies to feedlots and border communities, while giving officials a chance to evaluate the safeguards before considering additional ports. Meanwhile, efforts continue to control and eventually eradicate New World screwworm, including expanded production and release of sterile flies. JBS Reports Lower Profits Despite Record Sales JBS reported record second-quarter sales of nearly $24 billion, but profits fell as high cattle and pork prices squeezed margins. Adjusted operating income dropped 34%, while the company reported a $102 million net loss, compared with a $528 million profit a year ago. JBS's North American beef business posted record sales, helped by strong beef prices and consumer demand. But tight cattle supplies pushed live cattle costs even higher, putting pressure on packer margins. JBS also announced its Pennsylvania beef plant will stop harvesting cattle August 14, but the facility will remain open as a case-ready operation, preserving about 400 jobs. The company says it plans to invest more than $30 million there over the next decade.

As I have been working on my book “The UN-WOW,” I've been talking to a lot of people in experience design and experience management about whether or not my idea for the book makes sense. Two things have emerged from these conversations. First, people generally are very supportive of the principles behind The UN-WOW. It seems that people see a lot of opportunity in exploring more mundane aspects of everyday life for design opportunities. It has been great to hear that vote of confidence as I work on the project, and people being excited to hear more about it as it is coming together. The second thing to emerge is that on a certain level, none of this experience design work should be that hard because our goals are pretty simple. At its foundation, we ideally are trying to make life better for our design audiences. Whether it is user, customer, patient, employee, student, client, or any other experience design space, we want to improve the experiences that people have (regardless of whether these experiences are mundane or metamorphic). How we create these experiences, and the scale that it is done, becomes the work of the designers. What should be easy becomes more challenging when other organizational priorities take over. Organizations can become fixated on outcomes that run counter to the goals of experience designers. Caring about customers, employees, users, and others can be seen as a luxury when the only focus is profitability. Thus, many experience designers feel frustrated when trying to do their work, running into barriers that either minimize the scope of their work, or completely block it from happening. Leaders may want to talk about being human-centered, but don't necessarily see the need to treat people like human beings. To talk about the challenges and opportunities, I welcome Tamar Cohen to the Experience by Design studios. Like many people in experience design, Tamar had a very non-linear path to her work. Starting out as an Art History major, she worked in galleries and auction houses. She found herself at Citibank for 16 years, applying the skills she acquired from art history to her work in customer experience. She also shares her work leading other companies like Zoetis as the Head of Global Customer Experience Strategy and at Travelers as VP of Employee Experience. We talk about the importance of connecting employee experience and customer experience, making your employees your first customers. We also talk about the importance of ethnographic research to understand the full employee and customer journeys. We also discuss her new project with Michael Lowenstein as well as work with James Killian (both former guests on ExD). She describes what she calls the Halo Effect, which includes conducting qualitative research based on the Four E's Framework: educate, empower, engage, and energize. Her company HaloEffect works by diagnosing the human system first, working with organizations and leadership to put people first. Again, a simple idea that companies struggle executing, which Tamar tries to help them accomplish. It was a great conversation about the importance of employee experience (especially in relation to customer experience), how to lead with a people-first strategy, and how even a degree in Art History can lay the foundation for better experience designs.

In this episode Kerry Lonergan chats with Mike Stevens, principal of Meridian Agriculture and one of Australia's leading succession planning experts.

"Don't overvalue the top procurement spot, and don't undervalue the tools and the budget required. It's an ecosystem." - Stephen Rauf, Global Head of Indirect Procurement, Zoetis Delivering more value with fewer resources is an easy thing to want, but tough to execute consistently over time… unless procurement rethinks their entire approach, from operating model and team structure to technology and stakeholder influence. In this episode, Philip Ideson speaks with Stephen Rauf, Global Head of Indirect Procurement at Zoetis, the world's leading animal health company. Stephen unpacks how he has steered a lean, high-impact team through transformation, why "build vs. buy" is a weekly question, and what it takes to create true business partnership – while surfacing next-gen use cases for AI. In this episode, Stephen shares his point of view on: -Building nimble procurement teams that can punch above their weight -Moving from managing spend to shaping demand with stakeholders -Using tech – and especially AI – to enable rather than overwhelm -Deciding when to build internal strength vs. partnering for expertise -Measuring a broader spectrum of procurement value, not just cost savings Links: Stephen Rauf on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenrauf/ Subscribe to the AOP Newsletter: https://resources.artofprocurement.com/art-of-procurement-podcast-subscribe Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ArtofProcurement

For this episode of the podcast, I am joined by Varuna Trivedi, Director of Operations at BEAM VetCare. Varuna has worked across dentistry and veterinary practice management in multiple countries, and she discusses what it really means for private practices to stay competitive in a world in which corporate healthcare systems are constantly expanding! We spend some time discussing how convenience has become the baseline expectation for modern clients. Online booking, text-to-pay, and quick communication aren't just "nice extras" anymore; they are simply part of how people expect care to work, and I share what I have been seeing in my own practice as we start to use tools such as AI-assisted documentation and after-hours automation. Varuna explains how technology can remove administrative overload so that doctors and technicians can focus more on client connection and patient care! We also talk about the power of human relationships in veterinary medicine. After all, clients definitely still value the doctor or technician who knows their family's story, remembers their milestones, and provides consistent care over time. Corporate clinics often deliver efficiency and standardized workflows, but we agree that private practices can truly stand out, and we touch upon some practical ideas as well such as forward booking, treatment coordinators, flexible scheduling for staff, and benefits like wellness stipends that are reflective of different life stages. Varuna also shares her experience using in-house diagnostics technology, including the imagist microscope from Zoetis, to make routine testing faster and more affordable for clients! At the core of this episode of the show, though, is ultimately one simple idea: private practices don't need to outspend corporate systems! Instead, they can stand out by blending modern efficiency with empathy, staff empowerment, and authentic client connection! Show Notes: [0:34] - Today's sponsor is Otto! [1:59] - Varuna discusses how some similarities between dentistry and veterinary medicine also require learning some nuanced differences between the two. [3:50] - Varuna argues that staying relevant means using technology and human connection such as Zoetis tools. [6:45] - Hear how AI scribing reduces burnout, improves workflow, and helps clinics maintain personal client conversations! [9:39] - Varuna asserts that private practices should blend online convenience with real relationships better than corporate veterinary systems! [11:55] - Technology such as text payments improves efficiency, but long-term staff and client relationships still ultimately preserve compassion! [13:29] - Varuna argues that private clinics thrive by promoting autonomy, mentorship, and relationship-focused care instead of competition. [15:39] - It's important to celebrate long-tenured staff publicly and internally to help promote loyalty, consistency, and client trust. [18:09] - Varuna believes that flexible scheduling and mentorship can help reduce burnout, support growth, and also help retain clinicians! [21:41] - Varuna advises creating passion-based career roles to retain staff more effectively than just merely raising salaries. [22:59] - Hear how scheduling dedicated time for staff roles can help improve workflow, reduce burnout, and strengthen job identity. [25:23] - Hear how automating administrative tasks with AI tools improves efficiency, staff focus, and workplace satisfaction. [28:15] - Ultimately, flexible, personalized benefits better match employees' life stages and interests than uniform packages. [29:47] - Varuna believes that veterinary care should highlight empathy while also improving treatment communication, follow-up, and client education. [33:00] - Empowering staff to follow up on estimates improves client service, practice revenue, and engagement! Thank you for listening. Remember you are not in this alone.

Brad shares a spring dairy update and breaks down newly released national performance metrics from the Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding, offering a snapshot of what the U.S. dairy herd looks like today. He also touches on a major industry headline—Zoetis' planned acquisition of Neogen's animal genomics business—and what that could mean for dairy genetics going forward.A big part of the episode focuses on the red-hot calf market, especially for beef-on-dairy crosses. Brad highlights eye-popping prices from Minnesota sale barns, where Holstein bull calves and beef-cross calves are bringing in far more than producers would have expected just a few years ago. He reflects on how dramatically the economics of beef-on-dairy have changed and what that could mean for breeding decisions on dairies this year.The second half of the episode dives into the new national herd data, including milk production, components, somatic cell counts, herd size, and breed distribution across the country. Brad walks through where Holsteins, Jerseys, crossbreds, Brown Swiss, Guernseys, Ayrshires, and Milking Shorthorns stand today, and which states are leading in cow numbers and herd size. It's a practical, numbers-driven look at dairy trends in the U.S. and a useful update for anyone interested in genetics, herd demographics, and where the industry is heading.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory
