    How Your Fence is Made with OKBrand

    Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you! Are there very many pictures as pretty as a brand-new stretch of barbwire fence? Posts perfectly straight, wire absolutely level and slick cattle grazing on the right side of the fence complete that image in my mind.  But have you ever stopped to think about what has to go on behind the scenes to make that view possible? It doesn’t just start with the early morning start on loading supplies or the inevitable family event missed because of wayward mammals. Is doesn’t even start with the drive into town or checking out at your local farm store. The story begins with a group of people somewhere in the world who take pride in producing a product that cattlemen rely on.  On this episode of Angus at Work we welcome you to listen in as we visit with Bradley Burchfield, a member of the Agricultural Inside Sales Team at OKBrand, to discuss:  The history of the company,How different types of fencing are manufactured,The importance of buying U.S.-made products,Why the people who work at OKBrand make all the difference,And more!A huge thank you to Purina for their sponsorship of this episode.

    The Buzz on Flies of Importance with Sonja Swiger

    Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you! For a large portion of the United States, the previous year has been one for the books. Plentiful rain and green grass - even in areas that usually can't claim anything green except for the bar ditches - are certainly caused for celebration.  However, with that moisture comes its own unique set of challenges. Those challenges often materialize as nuisances that can cause tail swishing, bunching, overstimulated and stressed cattle. But there is a reemerging insect on the horizon that threatens to take the concern for fly control to another level.  On this episode of Angus at Work, we are joined by Sonja Swiger, an entomologist with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, to discuss:  The usual culprits,Why flies are an issue,How to control them, and New World screwworm.A huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode.  Additional Resources: AgriLife Extension New World screwworm fact sheetTexas A&M Veterinary Entomology resourcesHorn Flies and Grazing Cattle from the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAChoosing the Best Fly Control from the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRASubscribe to the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAFind more information to make Angus work for you in the Angus Beef Bulletin and ABB EXTRA.

    Filling a Beef Packing Void with Whiskey Creek Processing

    Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you! On this episode, host Lynsey McAnally brings our audience a bit of a different perspective on the beef industry. Beef processors – large and small – are a critical piece of the beef supply chain puzzle.  When COVID-19 was felt full force back in 2020, the need for an expanded network of processors across the state of Oklahoma became apparent. The result: $10 million of potential grant funding was made available to those wishing to build a better beef processing industry in that state. At the same time, there were also brand new local processors launching. Chance Combs and family of Madill, Okla., saw an opportunity and brought beef processing a little closer to home for their friends and neighbors via Whiskey Creek Processing.  During the conversation, we discussed:  Founding and constructing Whiskey Creek Processing,How your cattle are processed from drop off to picking up packaged beef,Opportunities for small producers,Challenges for small processors,And more!A huge thank you to Purina for their sponsorship of this episode.

    Planning for Ranch Profitability with Charlotte Talbott

    Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you! 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.  Additional Resources: Commercial Programs at the American Angus AssociationThe Estate Planning Stuff You NeedAvoiding Risks with RelationshipsSelecting Replacements with GeneMax AdvantageSubscribe to the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAFind more information to make Angus work for you in the Angus Beef Bulletin and ABB EXTRA.
