IN today's episode podcast host Kerry Lonergan catches up with Dr Frank Mitloehner, in a deep-dive into the beef industry's climate impact, the importance of accurate accounting methodologies and why the livestock “If we continue to reduce methane emissions in livestock sectors, whether through better grazing and forage, genetics, or tools coming online such as feed additives, livestock can be part of a climate solution. There aren't many sectors that can say that,” he told the recent World Angus Forum. Rather than being wrongly cast as a climate villain, Prof Mitloehner presented an opportunity for the livestock industry to be part of the climate solution. “Farmers and graziers are stewards of the land and have been for generations. Stewardship is sometimes called sustainability, but regardless of the term, it's part of the make-up of agriculture to manage the environment responsibly,” he said. “If we can reduce methane emissions from livestock, which we have, we can reduce warming by absorbing some of the excess greenhouse gases being emitted by industry.” The Weekly Grill is brought to listeners by Rhinogard and Bovi-Shield MH-One, the One Shot, One Spray, One Time BRD Vaccines by Zoetis.

Equine herpes virus is a huge concerns for breeders as a single positive case on a stud can turn into an “abortion storm” in which multiple mares lose their foals, which is both financially damaging and emotionally traumatic for all involved.
IN today's episode podcast host Kerry Lonergan catches up with Angus cattle producers attending the World Angus Congress in Brisbane. Genetic selection of cattle for lower methane, sustainability and consumer attitudes to climate issues were common themes throughout the two-day event. In this podcast, Angus cattlemen and women from across Australia and overseas give their views on how genetic selection for low methane might unfold in coming years. Will it be driven by pull-through from beef brand programs wishing to make carbon/methane claims? Will price signals be necessary for bull breeders to add methane to the already long list of traits they select for?

Ted Weisberg is “cautious,” saying volatility could “easily come back again.” His picks now include Chubb (CB), Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), Zoetis (ZTS), and Fluor (FLR). He's choosing stocks in sectors that are staples – and in the case of Zoetis, likes animal healthcare better than the healthcare/pharma sector. He emphasizes that the stock market is a “forward looking indicator,” and the lack of earnings guidance just creates more future unknowns.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Librela, a new drug to treat arthritis pain in dogs, was approved for use in Canada in 2021. In some cases, it was described to owners as a “miracle drug”, with no side effects other than potential soreness and swelling at the injection site. Some owners describe their dogs seeming happier and more comfortable. But others have reported adverse reactions, including lethargy, disorientation, vomiting, and even death. Zoetis, Librela's parent company, says Librela is safe and was rigorously tested. Susan Krashinsky Robertson is a business reporter for the Globe. She spoke to eight people whose pets' health declined after taking Librela. She's on the show to talk about the promise of Librela, and what she heard from pet owners and veterinarians about the drug.Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com

EPISODE 205 DETAILS How Hurricane Helene Affected Cattle Producers & How To Help Plus Beef Industry News Cattlemen's Groups Help Those Affected By Hurricane Helene Our thoughts and prayers are with the farmers and ranchers impacted by Hurricane Helene and the floods following her path. This Category 4 hurricane affects producers across the Southeast from Florida northward into the Appalachians. Below is a list of resources for cattlemen and women to give and seek aid.

Latest Beef Industry News Strike Shuts Ports On East, Gulf Coasts Agricultural exports screeched to a halt Tuesday as dock workers walking off the job on the East and Gulf coasts, after the International Longshoremen's Association's contract expired Tuesday at midnight. The poultry industry — concentrated in southeastern states and still reeling from Hurricane Helene — could be hardest hit in the meat sector, but extended port closures would quickly be felt nationwide, with 13% of beef, 15% of poultry, and 25% of pork production exported annually. Erin Borror, U.S. Meat Export Federation vice president for economic analysis, said that the strike-hit Eastern and Southern ports are responsible for at least $100 million a week worth of pork and beef exports, with a typically faster pace of outbound shipments in the fourth quarter. Senators Introduce Bill To Amend Federal Meat Inspection Act U.S. Sen. Peter Welch, D-Vt., along with Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Cory Booker, D-N.J., introduced the Livestock Owned by Communities to Advance Local (LOCAL) Foods Act. The legislation aims to amend the Federal Meat Inspection Act of 1906 to support small-scale meat producers in rural areas by updating the "personal-use exemption." The bill would allow consumers to purchase live animals from local producers and designate agents for slaughter and processing, easing bottlenecks caused by the limited number of USDA-inspected slaughterhouses. The move is intended to help small farmers avoid delays and continue providing locally sourced food to their communities. Welch said the legislation would cut through regulations that favor large-scale operations, ensuring small producers remain competitive. The bill is supported by several farming organizations, including the Farm Action Fund and the National Family Farm Coalition, as a way to boost local food access and protect farmers' rights to sell directly to consumers. Cheap Burgers Becoming Harder To Find According to a report from Bloomberg, the rising cost of beef is pushing burgers out of reach for many Americans, as the price of fast food continues to climb. In the second quarter of 2024, the average fast-food burger cost $8.41, a 16% increase from five years ago, according to Technomic's Ignite Menu data. Even McDonald's has seen prices surge, with a Big Mac averaging $5.29 — up 21% since 2019. The report said the root of the issue lies in dwindling cattle numbers, which hit a 73-year low in early 2024. Severe droughts, beginning in 2020, have forced ranchers to reduce herds, further driving up prices. While recent rainfall has improved conditions, higher interest rates and operating costs have made it too expensive for ranchers to rebuild herds quickly. Beef prices are expected to rise until at least 2026, with long-term challenges posed by climate change. Fast-food chains are responding with promotions to attract customers, but experts predict that the days of dollar-menu burgers are largely behind us. Consumers may need to adjust to beef becoming a pricier delicacy, similar to pre-McDonald's times, as the cattle industry faces ongoing environmental and economic hurdles.
