  • Banning Lab Grown Meat and EID Final Rule

    Banning Lab Grown Meat and EID Final Rule
    May 3 2024
    It’s the Ranch It Up Radio Show Herd It Here Weekly Report! A 3-minute look at cattle markets, reports, news info, or anything that has to do with those of us who live at the end of dirt roads.

EPISODE 27 DETAILS FLORIDA BECOMES THE FIRST STATE TO BAN THE SALE OF LAB GROWN MEAT. The first bill banning lab-grown meat was signed into law by Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida on May 1. According to SB 1084, the bill prohibits the manufacture for sale, sale, holding or offering for sale, or distribution of cultivated meat in the state. In a press conference in Hardee County, which is one of the top five cattle-producing counties in the state, the Governor spoke about the importance of supporting rural economies and agriculture. Governor Desantais said, “We’re fighting back against an ideology that ultimately wants to eliminate meat production in the U.S. and around the globe”. He went on to say, “In the state of Florida we’ve put down the marker very clearly; we stand with agriculture. We stand with the cattle ranchers. We stand with our farmers because we understand it's important for the backbone of the state. It's important for our culture. It's important for our heritage so the bill that I'm going to sign today is going to say basically take your fake, lab-grown meat elsewhere. We're not doing that in the state of Florida.” There has been an ongoing debate across the country in regard to cultivated meat products. Currently, lab-grown meat is only approved to be sold in the U.S. and Singapore. Italy was the first country in the EU to ban lab-grown meat, a decision made in February 2024. For the entire article, click HERE. FINAL RULE: ELECTRONIC IDENTIFICATION TAGS. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is getting set to publish the agency’s final rule, “Use of Electronic Identification Ear Tags as Official Identification in Cattle and Bison,” in the Federal Register. The rule would require official eartags sold for or applied to cattle and bison to be readable both visually and electronically (EID). Cattle organization R-CALF has strongly opposed the rule stating, “The USDA has slapped independent cattle producers, who have worked closely with the USDA in the past to very successfully control, contain, and eradicate foreign animal diseases, in the face. “We will fight against the implementation of this disastrous rule that infringes on the freedoms and liberties of our nation’s independent cattle farmers and ranchers. This is government overreach at its worst.” National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) President Mark Eisele, a Wyoming rancher, issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) final traceability rule: “USDA’s final traceability rule updates the existing requirement for animal identification that has been in place since 2013, switching from solely visual tags to tags that are both electronically and visually readable for certain classes of cattle moving interstate. Many producers are already familiar with using these visual tags and under the new rule, they will instead use electronic tags. NCBA has worked hard to secure $15 million in funding for producers to reduce the cost of implementing this change. We also remain committed to safeguarding producers’ private data and continuing to reduce the cost of ear tags for farmers and ranchers. Our industry faces a tremendous threat from the risk of a future foreign animal disease on American soil. To avoid devastating financial losses during a potential outbreak and to help producers quickly return to commerce, we need an efficient animal disease traceability system.” The USDA final traceability rule amends a previous 2013 rule that requires sexually intact cattle 18 months of age or older, rodeo and exhibition cattle, and dairy cattle moving interstate to have an official form of animal identification. The 2013 rule, which cattle producers already comply with, instituted visual ID tags for interstate movement. The new final rule switches producers to electronic ID tags. The rule will not take effect for six months to provide time for producers to prepare. This puts the implementation date after Nov. 1, 2024. Producers are asked to work with their local veterinarian and state veterinarian to secure proper tags and protocol.

EPISODE 26 DETAILS FEDERAL ORDER REQUIRES MANDATORY TESTING FOR COWS AS VIRUS SPREADS. The USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) issued a Federal Order Wednesday that requires testing for interstate movement of dairy cattle and mandatory reporting of positive test results. The order aims to prevent the spread of bovine influenza A virus (BIAV) in response to the detection of the virus in dairy cattle. Following the confirmation of HPAI in a commercial poultry flock in February 2022, over 1,100 HPAI detections have been identified on poultry farms in the U.S. Since late March 2024, USDA, along with other agencies and laboratories, investigated the emergence of H5N1 virus in dairy cows. Under the Federal Order, dairy cattle must receive a negative test for Influenza A virus at approved laboratories before interstate movement. Positive test results must be reported to USDA APHIS by laboratories and state veterinarians. The order aims to mitigate the risk of further spread of the virus, which poses a threat to both cattle and poultry, and to ensure the safety of livestock and the agricultural industry.

  • Why You Should Never Reduce Nutrition When You Need To Cut Expenses

    Why You Should Never Reduce Nutrition When You Need To Cut Expenses
    Apr 21 2024

It’s likely that beef production for this year will be only 509 million pounds – 1.9% - lower than a year ago, the report said. That’s a sharp improvement from the expected 8% drop forecast a year ago. Meanwhile, the USDA held steady with its beef import forecast, anticipating a 12% rise, and its expectations for an 8% drop in beef exports. That means that the country’s supply of beef per capita is roughly unchanged, according to Steiner analysis. Beef Exports Fall As Imports Rise Derrell Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist recently wrote for meatingplace.com saying that U.S. beef trade continues to evolve in the face of a unique domestic cattle market situation. Beef exports in February were down 1.3% year over year with the two-month total thus far in 2024 down 2.6%. This follows a 2023 year over year decrease of 14.3% from record 2022 beef exports. Beef exports in the first two months of the year are down year over year from most of the top markets; including number one Japan, number two South Korea, and number three China/Hong Kong. Additionally, Canada, the number five market is down 2.0% thus far in 2024, along with number six Taiwan. Mexico, which had been the number three market as recently as 2019, is currently the number four market but recovering. Beef exports to Mexico were up in January and February. Beef imports in February were up 23.8% year over year and are up 31.9% in the first two months of the year. Beef imports this year are led by Brazil, who jumps out strongly to fill the “other country” quota early in the year, with shipments moderating after two or three months in the face of the over-quota tariff. Imports from Brazil are up 41.8% year over year thus far in 2024. Imports from Australia are up sharply so far this year. Canada is the number two import source, slightly ahead of Australia and up 9.0 percent year over year. New Zealand is the number four beef import source and is up 48.6 percent thus far in 2024. Beef exports continue to face headwinds as beef production decreases and beef prices increase in the U.S. market. A generally strong U.S. dollar adds additional headwinds, making U.S. beef imports more expensive to international customers. At the same time, decreasing domestic beef supplies in the U.S., coupled with higher prices, attracts additional beef imports, with the strong dollar adding additional incentive for beef imports. As is typical, beef imports are heavily dominated by imports of lean processing beef to supplement decreasing supplies of non fed beef in the U.S. Decreasing lean beef supplies, coupled with strong ground beef demand in the U.S. is pushing 90 percent lean prices (and ground beef prices) to record levels. Fed beef (steer and heifer) production is declining, but the large percentage of yield grade 4 and 5 in feedlot cattle means that the supply of fatty (50 percent lean) trimmings is high relative to lean beef supplies and stimulating strong demand for domestic and imported lean processing beef to increase ground beef production.

    EPISODE 25 DETAILS AMERICA’S TOP BEEF PRODUCING COUNTRIES FROM DOVERS JOURNAL.

    America’s top 34 beef producing counties have been released from Drovers Journal.

    MINNESOTA REPORTS FIRST HPAI COMMERCIAL OUTBREAK OF 2024.

    The USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) reported the first commercial outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in Minnesota in 2024.

    The report, which was listed last week, said the outbreak occurred on a turkey farm in Meeker County, and resulted in 70,000 birds culled.

    This was the first commercial outbreak in Minnesota since December.

    Last month, the state reported a baby goat tested positive for avian flu from a quarantined poultry flock.

    Michigan and New Mexico have reported cases as well.

    An estimated 88.17 million birds have been affected in a total of 1,122 flocks in 48 states so far, according to APHIS even as the pace of confirmed outbreaks continues to slow down. Bovine officials are watching this very closely in light of the earlier initial case in cattle that was detected in Texas approximately 1 month ago..

These reports provide critical data and the decision to end them is completely misguided. NCBA Vice President of Government Affairs Ethan Lane said “It is disingenuous for the same agency which touts its commitment to transparency in livestock markets to arbitrarily cease publication of reports which provide just that. While it may be politically expedient to blame appropriators in Congress for today’s decision, cattle producers know better than to believe discontinuing a handful of reports will result in substantial cost savings for the Department.” He went on to say that “NCBA calls on USDA-NASS to immediately reverse this decision and continue delivering on its stated mission of providing timely, accurate, and useful statistics in service to U.S. agriculture.” For the complete article click HERE UPCOMING BULL SALES ANGUS CHAROLAIS HEREFORD GELBVIEH BALANCER RED ANGUS SIMMENTAL SIMANGUS Montgomery Ranch: April 13, 2024, Carrington, North Dakota Jorgensen Farms: April 15, 2024, Ideal, South Dakota DLCC Ranch: April 20, 2024, Pierz, Minnesota BULL SALE REPORT & RESULTS Churchill Cattle Company Van Newkirk Herefords Gardiner Angus Ranch Cow Camp Ranch Jungels Shorthorn Farms Ellingson Angus Edgar Brothers Angus Schaff Angus Valley Prairie Hills Gelbvieh Clear Springs Cattle Company CK Cattle Mrnak Hereford Ranch Frey Angus Ranch Hoffmann Angus Farms Topp Herefords River Creek Farms Upstream Ranch Gustin’s Diamond D Gelbvieh Schiefelbein Farms Wasem Red Angus Raven Angus Krebs Ranch Yon Family Farms Chestnut Angus Eichacker Simmentals & JK Angus Windy Creek Cattle Company Pedersen Broken Heart Ranch Mar Mac Farms Warner Beef Genetics Arda Farms & Freeway Angus Leland Red Angus & Koester Red Angus Fast - Dohrmann - Strommen RBM Livestock Weber Land & Cattle Sundsbak Farms Hidden Angus Wheatland Cattle Company Miller Angus Farms L 83 Ranch U2 Ranch Vollmer Angus Ranch A & B Cattle Carter Angus Farms FEATURING Cody Jorgensen Jorgensen Land & Cattle https://jorgensenfarms.com/ @JorLandCat Lane Giess DLCC Ranch https://www.dlccranch.com/ @DLCCRanch Kirk Donsbach: Stone X Financial https://www.stonex.com/ @StoneXGroupInc Mark Van Zee Livestock Market, Equine Market, Auction Time https://www.auctiontime.com/ https://www.livestockmarket.com/ https://...

    EPISODE 24 DETAILS AMERICAN FARMERS NETWORK TO SET CRITERIA FOR RE-GEN, GRASS-FED BEEF. American Farmers Network (AFN) announced it is spearheading the establishment of comprehensive certification criteria for regenerative grass-fed beef production. With USDA approval to use the Regenerative Agriculture claim on its packaging, AFN said it aims to set industry standards across the beef category, the organization said in a release. AFN's said its partnership with certifying organizations aims to create transparent standards for the beef industry, aligning with regenerative agriculture principles of soil health and animal welfare. AFN plans to work with retailers and partners to make regeneratively raised beef accessible nationwide. By providing incentives to producers to adopt regenerative practices, AFN seeks to cultivate a more sustainable agricultural landscape. The certification criteria will cover grazing management, soil health, animal welfare and social responsibility, the company said. Ranches meeting these standards will earn formal certification, distinguishing their products as sustainable and ethical choices in the marketplace. LIVESTOCK INVENTORY DECLINE HURTING COLD STORAGE NUMBERS. The USDA's March Cold Storage report revealed declines in red meat and poultry supplies for 2024. Analysis from Market Intel detailed how the declining livestock inventories are impacting the cold storage numbers. Red meat in freezers decreased by 4% from February 2023, hitting a 23-year low at 1.05 billion pounds, while frozen poultry stocks remained stable at 1.03 billion pounds. The March Cattle on Feed report showed a 1% increase in cattle on feed compared to 2023, indicating continued liquidation in the U.S. cattle industry, possibly impacting beef prices.

Our program strives to produce the most profitable genetics for our customer’s bottom line. This can only be done by trusting science and using it in all of our decisions. Research shows that crossbred females produce an average of one additional calf and over 600 more pounds of weaning weight than straightbred dams (NBCEC Sire Selection Manual). We are proud of how we’ve followed this principle with – whole herd reporting, data collection on every animal born, strict AI regimes, ultrasound data collection, and new and novel data. These practices produce “honest cattle, that give you real results.” How DLCC Ranch Breeds Cattle We believe in crossbreeding and the effects it brings our customers.
