Weather, drought, market prices and other factors can all put a major damper on the success of cattle producers year to year. Speaking with producers across the nation recently, there are struggles to be had whether rain has come your way or not. 

But how can we as livestock producers build a safety net in the event of unforeseen circumstances? 

On this episode, we invite you to listen to a conversation from CattleCon 2025 that Angus Beef Bulletin Editor Shauna Hermel had with Charlotte Talbott, sustainability analyst on the RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness team for North America, regarding the importance of genetics related to potential herd rebuild, on-farm risk management opportunities, and why financial and succession planning ahead of time can build the buffer needed to ride out rough times. 

A huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode.
