As we discuss these alternative grazing practices, you’re going to hear some very practical and easy to employ methods about how you can Utilize the FREE Nutrients from the South End of a Northbound Cow!

Starting with a Clean Slate… I’m sure at some point that has crossed your mind. Whether it’s with your ranch business or even your personal life.

So today Allan Crockett returns as our guest as he walks us through what we can do to “Reset”. A conversation that will target nearly every one of us in Ranching. For those so busy that life has lost its luster, to those stuck in a rut or feeling as though the business has plateaued, or the ones that have so many things going on that they are not doing anything well. Plus, will discuss Company Culture and the dangers of being resistant to change. It’s not a show just for the Decision Makers or Ranch Owners, this is also for the next gen ranchers as well. What does it take to have a Clean Slate?

It's called the "Silent Thief of Productivity"... we’re talking about Johne’s Disease. A disease that is highly contagious and fatal, because there is no cure for it. For most of us we assume it’s a disease that you see in the dairy industry, but now, we are starting to see it showing up in the beef herd. Dr. Susanne Hickley (Neogen) is back as my guest as we discuss what causes it Johne's Disease, the four stages, what kind of testing is available, what can we do to manage against it, and why it is considered to be the “Silent Thief of Productivity”. But a huge concern is that the first two stage of Johne’s is not visible, but they are contagious. So, once an animal reaches visible stages, how many more cattle in your herd are infected? If you’re in the cattle business, buying, selling, or leasing bulls or bred cattle… might want to listen in to today’s episode.
