    Episode 183 - What's Gonna Happen Now? We talk about what Trump's appointments may mean for American Ag

    In a short and sweet episode to wrap up our election coverage, we discuss what we've been thinking about in the week since America cast its votes. What does a second Trump Administration mean for American agriculture? We dive into what we've been pondering, touching on economic and trade policy (what's going to happen with tarriffs?) immigration policy, right down to Cabinet and other appointments. Tune in to this episode to hear what's been on our minds, and then get in touch to let us know where you're at with the election results! For now, we're turning off the politics to enjoy the upcoming holiday season, but we'll be back after the inauguration to jump right into what the eventual appointments and policies shake out to be.

    Episode 182 - 2024 US Elections Breakdown with NCBA's Tanner Beymer

    You knew it was coming...we had to talk US elections before the you-know-what hits the fan. We're delighted to welcome back Tanner Beymer, Executive Director of Government Affairs at the National Cattlemen's Association. Tanner joins us anytime there's a ballot in sniffing distance, and he doesn't disappoint in this episode. In fact, he more than delivers. He gives us an exellent overview of not just the presidential race, but down-ballot races in both parties and what it all may mean in whatever the makeup of Congress may be after November 5th. He also shares with us some Hail Mary attempts by current administration regulatory agencies to shove through new rules and regs that could cause a lot of concern for agriculture in general, and producers in particular. It's a fun episode, because Tanner disregards the doom and gloom of the last two years of campaigning, and shines a light on why the world truly won't end on November 6th, no matter the outcome of the races. He shares some sage wisdom in that regard, and leaves us with a story of past agricultural efforts to protect ourselves and our industry that turned out in our favor. Finally, he shows off his auctioneering skills, which provides a welcome distraction from the next few days to come. Enjoy, and believe Tanner - the world will still be standing come next Wednesday. Lady Liberty has a lot of life and fight in her yet.    Resources & Links: Learn more about the National Cattlemen's Beef Association: www.ncba.org Connect with Valene & Katharine: Follow us on Instagram @millennial_ag Check out our website Email us at talktous@millennialag.com Follow us on X/Twitter @millennial_ag   Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

From consumer trends to what heifer calves are going for to new technology, we are seeing things that we haven’t seen before in dairy. In this episode, we are diving into the changes in the market dynamics and milk prices, how cow numbers are impacting the industry, and how the current market can create opportunities for dairymen.

    Episode 180 - Danger of Denver Slaughterhouse Ban Threatening Agriculture with J.P. Dunn

    This week, we have a very special guest joining us. Valene’s husband John is with us today for “Whiskey Hour.” John is a farmer and rancher and the co-owner of Midas the cow dog. Together we dive into the realities of farming in a challenging environment, particularly focusing on growing crops in the desert landscape, as well as the important role irrigation canals play into productive farmland. As harvest time approaches, we thought it would be the perfect time to look at some common topics regarding crops. We are discussing the various corn maturation periods, what they mean for yield potential, how farmers select which to plant, and the differences between GMO and non-GMO corn and the challenges they present.

    Episode 178 - Open the Gate, Don't Educate!- On Ag Influencing with Tucker Brown

    In today’s episode, we are taking a look at using social media to engage with those outside of the Ag industry. Social media can be a great tool to foster understanding and relatability with those who may be removed from agriculture. Joining us to share all about using social media in the Ag industry is Tucker Brown of R.A. Brown Ranch. Tucker is sharing why he started utilizing social media, the opportunities he has been presented with, and why it’s important to adapt your communication to reach your target audience. He also discusses how he engages the consumer with his content, how he handles misconceptions about the Ag industry, ways he is staying relevant, and how he gets his content to reach outside of those in Agriculture. Tucker Brown is a 6th generation rancher at R.A. Brown Ranch, where he is dedicated to preserving his family's legacy in agriculture. With a passion for bridging the gap between producers and consumers, Tucker has amassed a large social media following by blending entertainment with education, offering insights into ranch life and sustainable practices. He is also a strong advocate for keeping the ranch in the family and the family in the ranch. He and his wife Karley are now raising the upcoming 7th generation of the ranch, Rayley and Brooklyn Brown.   Resources & Links: Our sponsor, Peacock Technology Mark your calendars for the 50th Annual Golden Opportunity R.A.

    Episode 177 - Corporate Cowgirls: On Kicking Ass in Agriculture with Bec Pfeffer

    In today’s episode, we are discussing corporate cowgirls and the importance of community for dairy women. We know that finding a supportive community to network and have important discussions with can be challenging within the dairy business as many dairy women live in rural areas. That’s why our guest, Bec Pfeffer and the Dairy Girl Network, are working to fill the evolving needs of women in the industry. Bec is sharing her experience and insight on the importance of networking for community and career advancement, how Dairy Girl Network is working to improve inclusiveness for women and young families in the industry, what you can expect to see from DGN at the World Dairy Expo, and the importance of embracing early career experiences for new corporate cowgirls.    Bec Pfeffer has always revolved her life around the ag industry. Helping on family farms, 4-H, FFA, Holstein Association… you name it. Her enthusiasm grew as she studied at the Pennsylvania State University, where she graduated with a degree in agribusiness management and a minor in international agriculture. While there, she participated in the Dairy Science Club, Alpha Zeta co-ed fraternity, THON Dance Marathon and the dairy Judging team. Through connections made at school and internships she has found opportunities to work at Cargill as a U.S. Dairy Marketing Specialist, Bader Rutter as a Senior Account Executive and then Account Supervisor for the Zoetis dairy and cattle accounts, Zinpro as their Global Content Marketing Manager, and most recently at Maola Local Dairies, owned by MDVA, as a Brand Manager.   Resources & Links: Our sponsor, Peacock Technology Mark your calendars for the Dairy Girl Network National Conference, Nov 5th-7th, 2024   Connect with Bec: Follow her on Instagram: @dairygirlnetwork Follow Dairy Girl Network on Facebook  Follow Dairy Girl Network on LinkedIn Check out the Dairy Girl Network website   Connect with Valene & Katharine: Follow us on Instagram @millennial_ag Check out our website Email us at talktous@millennialag.com Follow us on X/Twitter @millennial_ag   Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!
