You might ask if anyone from Kansas is coming to Arizona Nationals.  It is between Christmas and New Years.  I know people from that area come to show.  Then there is also many from California that can take it the final leg.  Just a suggestion.

We are feeding more people with less beef today.  Lowest cattle on feed since 1954.  If we revert to organic (comparable to 1950's methods) there would not be enough food for all the people in the world.  In next 50 years, we have to produce double the food we produce.  We are going to have to...

I sent you also a PM.

An adult showmaship with money towards fundraiser and winner gets bragging rights for a year and a good cause.

Great job on a great video featuring a great cattle woman.  She tells it like it is.  This is the message that has to reach consumers.  I'm so impressed by her thoughts that I want to meet her in person.  Another great beef advocate we are truly grateful to have in our industry.  Great job once...

Congrats, you are off to a great start.  I like how you say investment.  It sure is.  You have a great mind set.  Keep that diary like an accountant keeps its books.  Up to date and precise.  I don't know how many people have told me how they wish they had written something down.  You also are...

Sorry you're upset AAOk.  I haven't notice obese people eat.  I have noticed people that are overwieght tend to eat many times a day.  They eat meals and snacks through out the day and sometime even get up at night also.  Obese people are not that way cause the consume so fast.  I believe its...

It all depends on the animal.  Some animals eat slower than others.  Some animals pic around the eat then there are other ones that just go to town.  I have even had animals that are night eaters.  I mostly see this on warm days.  Too hot during day but when temps drop down then they eat.  I...

I started working in a feedyard as a teenager. I loved it.  I stopped and went off to college.  I got my degree in Ag Economics after 5 yrs.  I came back and now manage a sucessful large feedyard.  As I look around at competitors managers, I notice more and more college degrees.  I am even...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtV9YG39m3s I have tried both types, but for eating experience I enjoyed the taste of corn fed beef.  I also want to do my part feeding the world.

Great video!!  I always ask producers "What have you done to make a difference?"  This is one of many things we as producers have to be doing.  Intoducing our selves to the public is what we HAVE to do.  We can gain more of consumers confidence if they are able to put a face on our product.  As...

http://humanewatch.org/index.php/site/post/show_me_humanewatch/ Nice to see what some farmers did at the Missouri State Fair.  More of this needs to be done. Enough of all of us talking about it.  Ask yourself this, What have I done to make a difference.  Good job Missouri Farmer.  Mrs. Crow...

Box6ranch,  I mostly agree with you.  Thats another way to grade the judge and keep him honest.  I understand he cannot be perfect but yes I believe the grand and reserve should be in top 10 % if the judge was good.  Our fair does the same as yours.  All steers that go through sale get put into...

RW, big fan of yours here.  Not just because of the knowlege and advise but on softness and understanding.  I will understand any decision you make but wanted to chime in to let you know some people actually look forward to your comments.  Just keep being yourself.  Chin up, head high my friend.
