Lots of ranchers are leaving money on the table, because of: - employee turnover and attrition - poor cattle genetics - subpar marketing - general poor management - inability to adapt - lack of diversified income - poor planning Sometimes the industry acts like some of these areas are always going to be a struggle, but it really doesn't have to be that way. Tell us: what are the top areas where you see ranchers leaving money on the table?

Despite what mainstream rhetoric will have you believe, the term “factory farming” does not exist in the beef industry. While beefs journey from pasture to plate is most definitely a complex process, I assure you there is one thing remains constant – FAMILIES are the people responsible for supplying you your beef.!  ⁣ Of the 700,000 beef ranches in the US & 91% of them are owned by families just like mine. On top of that, the average herd size in the US is 40 head of cattle. Which makes our ranch almost 20x larger than the average herd size. If you feel comfortable with the way my family raises beef - then you should feel comfortable with the way every family in the nation raises beef. ⁣ ⁣ I get that it’s hard to trust and support something that is unfamiliar and foreign to you. But using this type of verbiage only further perpetuates the disconnect we are seeing and adds more fear to the fire.⁣ ⁣ The truth no matter how large or small an operation is - numbers do not change the way ranchers run their operations, handle their cattle or care for their land.⁣ ⁣ The truth is hundreds of thousands of FAMILIES go to work to every single day to feed communities near and far. Agriculture is one of the backbones of this great Nation and FAMILIES are the backbone of it. #factsnotfear #farmersfeedtheworld

Many farmers, especially #sheep farmers are doing it tough with farmgate prices crashing in recent times. 9 News Melbourne's Chris Kohler spent the day at VFF Livestock President Scott Young's farm to see why and the impact it's having on farmers.

People who see ADVERSARY as OPPORTUNITY....massive applaud This scenario right here must be something the assistance providers should be looking out for and at least small investment on people with such drive and vibe, people who can help themselves, man, the outcome will tremendously double or triple or even more. Such people are very humbled, very appreciative and capable of taking ownership of investments not to mention their high-level transparency. Number of presentations and resources are vested into so called organizations that doesn't really work; therefore, I highly recommend authorities to rethink or shift the policies to accommodate such acts as requirements or provisions in qualifying for development assistances. Not many people with proposals show their need in writing but many people with no proposals action their need (motion). This is the representation of other areas where resilience is enabling prosperity but undetected. Nagiob Jesse acknowledging your original post.
