"Bulls can kind of fall apart during breeding season." Levi's 60 days are done. This Wyoming rancher is walking him two miles home on foot. Horrible drought. Poor grass. The cows held weight anyway. US cattle herd: smallest since 1951.

Red meat got a cancer label off a 17 percent relative risk. That number came from food questionnaires. No randomized trial on red meat and cancer has ever been run. Baker on the 2015 WHO ruling: "That conclusion is by no means, quote unquote, settled science, very much based on very weak evidence." Thirteen observational studies. Risk up 17 percent per 100 grams a day. The WHO's own review admits residual confounding by smoking, obesity and diet quality cannot be excluded. The label ran. The caveat didn't. The people who wrote it don't raise your food. They decide whether you're allowed to eat it. @SBakerMD

Kansas's own remediation bureau called these feedlots a likely source of nitrate contamination. KDHE renewed both permits anyway, with no new cleanup requirements. Erin Brockovich reports it: 204 private wells, 500 people, no other water.

Trump's beef import plan was supposed to help shoppers. Farm Bureau tracked 41 stores for 3 weeks. Ground beef fell 16 cents. Ranchers ate up to $453 a head in losses. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ BeefMaps.com

Keep following us. You might learn something lol
Rodger's Grass Fed Beef runs 350 acres in Michigan. Black Angus, Red Angus, British White. Never a feedlot, never a grain bunk, never a hormone implant. They're not just trusting their gut anymore. They're feeding real grazing data into the 3M project: Metrics, Management and Monitoring, run by Noble Research Institute with Michigan State, Wyoming, Colorado State. The goal: finally quantify what grazers have known for decades. Managed grazing thickens the soil, beats back the weeds, cuts the dependence on inputs. Christina puts it plain: 'Let the earth do what it can do. See how much it can do.' Now the data is catching up to what the land said all along. Ranchworthy walked the pastures with them.

Ninety percent of the cheese in this country is made with a genetically modified enzyme. Four ingredients make real cheese. Milk, salt, starter cultures, rennet. A pharmaceutical company figured out how to insert cow genes into a modified fungus to produce rennet at scale. That enzyme, called fermentation-produced chymosin, now sits in roughly 9 out of 10 cheese packages on your grocery shelf. Meanwhile Kraft Singles cannot legally call themselves cheese. The FDA requires at least 51% real cheese for that word on the label. Kraft's product falls below it. The package says "pasteurized prepared cheese product." Sodium phosphate. Milk protein concentrate. Annatto coloring. A long ingredient list stretched far from four ingredients. Italy and France have laws protecting real cheese. The recipe is locked. The ingredients are milk, salt, cultures, animal rennet. Zero room for shortcuts. That breakdown from Riverside Homestead Life on YouTube is worth your time. I'd rather sell you something with four ingredients you can pronounce. Direct from ranch. No middleman stretching the list. Your rancher, Jason Hanley | 208-714-0478

Diesel runs the entire food chain. It is the lifeblood of modern civilization. Trucks on diesel move 80% of this country's food. No diesel, no groceries on the shelf. Now the government is talking about banning diesel exports. The refineries are already at full capacity. We have not built a new one in nearly 50 years. The Persian Gulf supplies roughly 40% of the sulfur the world needs for fertilizer. No sulfur, no sulfuric acid. No sulfuric acid, no phosphate fertilizer. Tens of thousands of American farmers are already on the edge of bankruptcy. The Netherlands, one of the most productive agricultural nations on earth, is dismantling its own farmers under government mandate. The energy structure that feeds you is fracturing. When the trucks stop running, the grocery stores empty in three days. That breakdown from Palisades Gold Radio laid it out plain. I sell direct because the commodity chain is one diesel shortage away from collapse. Your rancher, Jason Hanley | 208-714-0478

Napa's most valuable vineyards sit on land that used to graze cattle. One acre of premium wine grapes could out-earn ten acres of cattle grazing land. The economics were compelling. So when drought and depression wrecked the cattlemen's books, East Coast money and German wine men bought the struggling ranchers out. Legal sales. Fair prices. By 1891, Napa County had 166 wineries. The cattle ranches were subdivided and replanted. The Mexican land grant families sold. The vaqueros and ranch hands lost their jobs. And the buyers were celebrated as pioneers. The story never mentioned the land came from distressed grant sales. It never mentioned who got pushed off. Land that feeds people priced out by land that doesn't. That is not just a Napa story.
