No doubt you’ve heard the phrase, “There’s an App for That”. On this program, Dave Voth with Good Grazing Makes Cents, joins us as we discuss a few of the apps that are available to us for Grazing Management. He’ll give us his review of some, and we’ll discuss others that he’s excited about as well. But the purpose for an app is to help us be efficient in our management which in turn assists in our efforts to be profitable. Joins us for a practical conversation about Grazing Apps. Plus find out what Dave says is the most underrated app/software that is extremely useful for management and planning purposes.

With the high cattle markets it easy to get lulled into a false sense of profitability. Allan Crockett is back as our guest as we are halfway through the calendar year and it’s a good time to reevaluate and be proactive for both planning for the rest of this year and future business plans. From marketing to tax Planning, to making wise decisions with how we can invest our profit so that we can take advantage of growth opportunities when they arrive. Now is not a time to be complacent. It’s your business… so let’s grab a gear and take it to the next level.

It's a market like we’ve never seen before! Clint Berry is back with us as we recap the results from the latest Superior Livestock Video Sale and talk about the tone it set as we look ahead to the summer sales and fall run. . Are we seeing any sign of herd retention? Is there the return on adding value to your calves whether it’s through various marketing programs to weaning… and how should you view those types of management decisions? Plus, a stark warning about sitting in the middle of either selling your calves all natural or using the technology available to add weight to your calves. What’s the best valued animal in the market? And we'll wrap up our conversation with his biggest concern in the market right now.

Ron Scott (Purina) is my guest as we jump into a deep discussion on Fetal Programming. We’ll explore a study done out of NDSU on heifer calves all the way from birth to a calving cow and the correlation between the nutrition, minerals, vitamins, their mommas received and their performance as 1st time mommas and their ability to re-breed. Fetal Programming is a subject that dove tails nicely into last week’s episode and it's a factor we really need to understand in our effort as ranchers to raising cattle that are profitable for our operation… which means cattle that are maximizing their genetic potential and staying in the herd longer.

The cost of not getting the second calf from a heifer you either bought our developed is a big hit. Karla Wilke, (University of Nebraska) joins us today as we go through several discuss points regarding getting that "elusive" second calf. While some would say “don’t baby the girl”, there could be some flaws in that theory. And what about the genetics we are breeding into our herd and how it should relate to our physical environment. It's a balance between too much and not enough in managing the first calf heifers after calving, because too far in either direction is a loss in profitability.

"Everything that happens out here creates compounding cascading effects, and those effects are never neutral. They're either positive or negative"... a quote from our guest Allen William (Understanding Ag and Soil Health Academy). On this show he explains Adaptive Grazing and how it can generate positive effects on your ranch. Allen will explain what it IS, what it is NOT, and the 3 rules adaptive grazing. The best part about it is... it's simple and practical. At the end of the day, it’s about creating a healthier soil that can generate more net production, more profit, and be more resilient in drought. Here’s another angle... Land is not getting any cheaper and rather than buy more land maybe your greatest return on investment is right under your feet.
Plus a bonus interview on K-Line Irrigation!

The gloves are off, which is usually what happens between siblings after Mom & Dad are gone if a good estate plan is not in place. Today we’re gonna take the gloves off and get gritty in a discussion with Attorney Rick Durfee (Durfee Law Group) about estate planning and the family dynamics that can often create conflict. Plus, the danger of relying on a Will as an estate management tool, some of the tools that can be used in good proactive Estate Management, and the dangers of kicking this can down the road. This is not a warm fuzzy show, but if you value the legacy you would like to leave behind… listen in.

It's more about the "unknown" than the "known" when it comes to Avian Influenza (Bird Flu). Dr. Fred Gingrich, American Association of Bovine Practitioners, is my guest today as we discussed the Influenza Type A H5N1 outbreak now being confirmed in Dairy Cattle. As a beef cattle rancher I have A LOT of questions like... Are beef cows susceptible? What are the symptoms? How is it transferred? Is it fatal? Then, what it will do to consumer confidence in any products that come from cows... oh and then what about traceability? And then… what IF it shows up in a Beef Cow? Dr. Gingrich rates this issue at a level 8.5 to 9 on a scale of 10. For the sake of your ranch and for our cattle industry, tune in for today’s show.
