1 00:00:02,159 --> 00:00:07,639 coming up I was doing the math earlier 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:10,160 You could almost carry a dairy cow a 3 00:00:07,639 --> 00:00:12,480 year and make her work and make her work 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,679 without milk without milking her Yeah I 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,519 think the market's getting shorter and 6 00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:17,039 shorter about every month it feels like 7 00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:19,119 I mean it got bad enough in certain 8 00:00:17,039 --> 00:00:20,400 areas that you were essentially taking 9 00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:21,760 some of them solid and shortening 10 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,960 spreader cows that are the most 11 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,240 productive years of their life and they 12 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,240 were hanging That's right around the 13 00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:29,199 corner on the live a ranch and livestock 14 00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:31,119 marketing we live at podcast But first

00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,880 Southeast Still southeast of Sterling 35 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,960 here He trades a lot of cows Um uh buys 36 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:22,720 a bunch of her dispersals and and trades 37 00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:26,000 a lot of stuff that that way if if I 38 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:28,080 understood you right earlier So um but 39 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,840 Levi is from Kansas originally Is that 40 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,759 correct so kind of just give us a little 41 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,200 background of I mean you're raising your 42 00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:35,280 background of how you was in the 43 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,119 industry and kind of just let's talk 44 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,960 about um I grew up in the flannels of 45 00:01:37,119 --> 00:01:40,799 Kansas I grew up in a little town called 46 00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:42,560 Cassidy which nobody unless you've been 47 00:01:40,799 --> 00:01:44,640 through the flannels of c Kansas you 48 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,880 don't really know where Cassidy is But I 49 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,399 grew up in Cassidy till I was about nine 50 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:52,799 and then my parents moved to El Dredo 51 00:01:49,399 --> 00:01:58,479 Um my parents um my stepdad was a school 52 00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:59,920 teacher and then in I think 89 or 90 he 53 00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:02,880 decided he was going to run some cattle 54 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:04,320 and started a custom grazing business 55 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,719 And so that was kind of our background 56 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,959 on that side with my mom and my stepdad 57 00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:10,479 Then my dad's always been a cow guy So 58 00:02:08,959 --> 00:02:12,720 I've kind of got the best of both worlds 59 00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:14,879 on when it comes to my parents We have a 60 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,560 unique scenario Kind of grew up sail 61 00:02:14,879 --> 00:02:18,080 barn background a little bit Uh y'all 62 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,959 had this El Dorado Sailorn for a little 63 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:23,680 longer My stepdad and a partner had the 64 00:02:20,959 --> 00:02:26,560 sail barn at Elorado from I think 98 65 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:29,520 till 200 66 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:31,280 uh would have been 21 I think No it was 67 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,440 before that one No it might have No it 68 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:36,000 was it 69 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:39,440 was 15 years 15 That's when it was I 70 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,720 lose track of time but but yeah so I was 71 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,120 right out of high school when they 72 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,560 purchased that He and Steve Hamlin owned 73 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,959 that and I got a pretty good exposure to 74 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,640 that and you know back in one of those 75 00:02:46,959 --> 00:02:50,239 things Oh yeah You you can learn a lot 76 00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:51,760 in a sort alley That's where that's 77 00:02:50,239 --> 00:02:53,440 where I think the greatest education 78 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,840 I've ever got came from was probably in 79 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,400 a sort alley or picking up your 80 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,920 somewhere So yeah 81 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,599 looking to earn a premium for doing 82 00:02:59,920

kind of tell us a 102 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,920 little bit about the cow trade What I 103 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,879 mean how how what have you seen here in 104 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,239 the last year last 6 eight months i mean 105 00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:51,920 what what are you thinking on this cow 106 00:03:50,239 --> 00:03:53,200 deal what's it looking like on the on 107 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,720 the bread cow deal especially on the 108 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,159 better end of the cows we're always a 109 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,840 little behind what the feeder markets 110 00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:00,640 will do you know and and the fat cattle 111 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,400 market will do But I think that you know 112 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,360 we're we've had this big word of 113 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,720 expansion here recently and I think 114 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,319 there's a lot of people realizing that's 115 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,640 probably not coming as fast as they 116 00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:12,560 wanted to And so I think that you know 117 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,799 we're we're kind of starting to see in 118 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,519 the breaded cow and the parent pair side 119 00:04:14,799 --> 00:04:19,280 of it that we're kind of starting we've 120 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:22,000 kindly finally starting to catch up with 121 00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:23,840 what the value of those things truly is 122 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,520 you know yeah they've been pretty cheap 123 00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:27,680 relative to everything else It's like I 124 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,600 mean you have feeder cattle that was 125 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,320 basically the same value as a as a bread 126 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,160 cow right and usually when we see a big 127 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,080 market run historically it's always that 128 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,320 way The last thing to come to the table 129 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:40,800 is usually the breadc market and the 130 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,400 bull market and they've really taken a 131 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,240 turn here in the last 6 months Are you 132 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,280 starting to when you say that so this is 133 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,199 one thing that I've sit here and just 134 00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:49,199 racked in my mind because I was looking 135 00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:51,120 at so uh I was looking at the numbers 136 00:04:49,199 --> 00:04:53,919 and I was looking at charts on uh 137 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,560 separating beef cow slaughter and dairy 138 00:04:53,919 --> 00:04:58,000 cow slaughter out Okay And so those 139 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,880 markets are extremely strong the 140 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,400 slaughter cow markets Um so there should 141 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,759 be tremendous amount of incentive But 142 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,440 then the other thing is now we got the 143 00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:08,000 cow man that's a they've been able to 144 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,440 get two calf crops and and it's above 145 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,280 above what a break even would be and now 146 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,840 he's got good margin out there Right So 147 00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:15,680 now I mean from a from a business 148 00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:17,280 decision standpoint I'm not going to say 149 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,800 they're going to start to retaining but 150 00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:20,880 they've obviously started selling less 151 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:24,000 cows Okay So we're selling we're killing 152 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,039 less cows right um and then so to you 153 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,800 you're starting to see a price 154 00:05:25,039 --> 00:05:29,919 escalation That means you got somebody 155 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,680 either not wanting to sell cows or you 156 00:05:29,919 --> 00:05:34,000 got somebody wanting to step in and buy 157 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Yeah I think I think currently the the 158 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,320 market's pretty short I I think for a 159 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,520 high quality commercial cow I think the 160 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,680 market's getting shorter and shorter 161 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,039 about every month It feels like you know 162 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,039 usually this time of year we see several 163 00:05:43,039 --> 00:05:46,000 of these head repair sales that are 164 00:05:45,039 --> 00:05:47,120 they're they're just kind of flooding 165 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,400 the market and there's an opportunity 166 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,320 usually to get in and buy some FE 167 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,680 repairs worth the money and you know 168 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,120 this deal they're bringing what they 169 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,120 should and there's cuz there's not very 170 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,479 many of them But you know you think it's 171 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,759 cuz the guys are lack like not wanting 172 00:05:56,479 --> 00:06:01,199 to let loose of them i think so I I 173 00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:05,120 think the retainment deal I think on the 174 00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:06,960 heers has changed at all I I think that 175 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,800 for so many years that these guys that 176 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,720 would 177 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,919 normally retain heers the value of these 178 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,240 heers has gotten to the point where 179 00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:15,919 they're cashing a pretty good chip And I 180 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,120 think that you know with the input cost 181 00:06:15,919 --> 00:06:19,199 these things and the cost of production 182 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,720 being so high I think that they've taken 183 00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:22,479 a lot of advantage of it the last two 184 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,000 years where you know like these last two 185 00:06:22,479 --> 00:06:26,080 rounds of calf like you said they've 186 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,720 made them some money Oh yeah And you 187 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,960 know as a cow calf producer I think the 188 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,479 that temptation is pretty hard to retain 189 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,000 Yeah There's two ways to expand And 190 00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:36,639 really the first one I mean just think 191 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,520 through this right we call in the beef 192 00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:41,440 herd at about a 10% rate So you could 193 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,680 sell less cows you can callull less cows 194 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:46,720 you can be more accepting of a cow 195 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,720 that's got a problem in your herd unless 196 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,840 she's dying Uh so you're not you're 197 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,560 going to you're going to keep them cows 198 00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:53,840 another couple years uh the dairy cow 199 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,880 we're seeing the same thing in the dairy 200 00:06:53,840 --> 00:06:59,919 cow population where um they've slowed 201 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:02,160 their for so forever uh the last four or 202 00:06:59,919 --> 00:07:05,520 five years as they've started to get 203 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:08,319 four five six 7 $800 $900 for a day old 204 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:10,400 calf Oh yeah they've slowed down uh I 205 00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:13,280 mean I was I was doing the math earlier 206 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,919 You could almost carry a dairy cow a 207 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,759 year and make her work and make her work 208 00:07:15,919 --> 00:07:20,000 without milk without milking her Yeah 209 00:07:17,759 --> 00:07:21,759 Yeah You could you could have it's crazy 210 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,000 to think through the economics of it And 211 00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:26,240 so I mean that's where I'm like really 212 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,880 trying to balance out and go are we 213 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,280 going to grow could you grow the cow 214 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:34,400 herd 215 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:37,039 theoretically by not pulling as fast I 216 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,840 think you could but I think you see what 217 00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:41,599 I'm saying we've we've had such a unique 218 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,360 scenario where a lot of the Midwest is 219 00:07:41,599 --> 00:07:45,039 coming out of a drought the last 3 years 220 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,800 and we're still in it here I mean we're 221 00:07:45,039 --> 00:07:48,080 not anywhere out of the woods We got a 222 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:52,720 little moisture this week and it wasn't 223 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:54,960 much but like my dad lives up north of 224 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,680 northeast Scots northwest Scots Bluff 225 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:59,039 They haven't had any rain since May you 226 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,360 know up there for a while They haven't 227 00:07:59,039 --> 00:08:02,520 had any rain since about 1926 228 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,199 That's 229 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:07,280 that's sou county can be pretty 230 00:08:05,199 --> 00:08:08,080 unforgiving when you get off the Nero 231 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,840 But 232 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:13,440 um you know I mean we've had kind of a 233 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,639 perfect storm these markets running into 234 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,000 the back end of a year where we're 235 00:08:14,639 --> 00:08:18,319 coming out of a massive kill because of 236 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,319 these droughts Yeah And so it's like 237 00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:21,840 nobody really you want to retain them 238 00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,199 but you're like "Oh they're worth 1,800 239 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,879 bucks to haul them to town Why wouldn't 240 00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:26,400 I haul them to town?" It's pretty hard 241 00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:27,680 to resist T and I were talking about 242 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,280 that was when we were driving in from 243 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,039 the airport I was asking Tom like "Are 244 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,800 you seeing guys buy these heers to go in 245 00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:34,959 there and start to breed them are you 246 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,919 seeing any of that kind of stuff?" Yeah 247 00:08:34,959 --> 00:08:40,719 And we're seeing an end of it And I I 248 00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:43,120 noticed it because I I appreciate a 249 00:08:40,719 --> 00:08:45,200 really good heer to breed But we'll see 250 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,720 an end of it here Especially we have a 251 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,640 little market drop in this heer deal 252 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,800 People will start looking at raw numbers 253 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,560 and they'll be like 254 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:56,000 "She's got two holes We'll breed her." 255 00:08:52,560 --> 00:08:57,519 Yeah And and I that doesn't help our 256 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,040 industry at all because we lose so much 257 00:08:57,519 --> 00:09:01,040 productivity on the back side of it when 258 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,360 they go come into production Yeah you 259 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,440 know so it Well when you're liquidating 260 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,120 the herd you kill the worst ones and 261 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,480 then when you're when you're expanding 262 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,560 you keep the worst ones you know Yeah So 263 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,240 yeah And you know it was like the last 264 00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:15,920 few years when the liquidations happened 265 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,760 because of the drought I mean it got bad 266 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,600 enough in certain areas that you were 267 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,279 essentially taking some of them solid 268 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,480 and short and spreader cows that are the 269 00:09:21,279 --> 00:09:24,160 most productive years of their life and 270 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,920 they were hanging them Yeah I mean just 271 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,360 because they didn't have an option and 272 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,040 the market was a hamburger and the 273 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,120 market was so flooded at the point that 274 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,560 you know there was a lot of them things 275 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,240 that normally they might have prick 276 00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:36,480 checked them and saw that they were you 277 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,240 know first trimester first couple months 278 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,000 and rolled her on but there wasn't any 279 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,440 value in it because they went ahead and 280 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,760 hung them because it was so high in 281 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,519 hamburger so they never went back into 282 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,279 the cycle It's interesting how it's all 283 00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:48,640 kind of played out Yeah there's 284 00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:50,160 definitely like just a we can all 285 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,839 spitball it and guess and that's what 286 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,760 everybody is and and I've told somebody 287 00:09:51,839 --> 00:09:56,000 if they if somebody shows up and they've 288 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,360 got the magic eightball you need to haul 289 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,399 get away from them because there nobody 290 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,080 knows what's going to happen on this 291 00:09:58,399 --> 00:10:01,440 deal but I mean it's been really really 292 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,959 good I mean there's been a lot of money 293 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,640 made in this business And I was asking 294 00:10:02,959 --> 00:10:06,160 my brother the other day if he's seen it 295 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:09,200 at the barn where they where they 296 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:11,440 started keeping heers yet He said no He 297 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,079 in our country he said no cuz this this 298 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,079 his heer percentage is still higher than 299 00:10:14,079 --> 00:10:17,120 it than it normally is because they're 300 00:10:16,079 --> 00:10:18,240 bringing so much I mean they're 301 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,000 stripping them off and they're getting 302 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,519 rid of them I mean you know if they're 303 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,040 doing any they'll keep four or five just 304 00:10:21,519 --> 00:10:24,480 to replace the four or five coal cows 305 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,160 they sent to town but they're they're 306 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,680 not growing they're just replacing What 307 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,360 are you seeing in the rebreed market so 308 00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:30,880 like these cows I mean like so last fall 309 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:34,160 whenever you had all the opens that were 310 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:36,880 coming to town um where'd they go they 311 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:39,120 go to a feed yard and the rebreed market 312 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,120 was pretty insane last fall You know I 313 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,519 mean you're seeing a market to where in 314 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,800 the years past those young you know 315 00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:47,200 three-year-olds that were thin that 316 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,200 missed for natural causes Like nothing 317 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,800 that's missed because I mean missed 318 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,920 because they come out of a drought they 319 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,160 didn't get stuck in the cycle they 320 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,600 needed to get stuck in You know in years 321 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,720 past we've been able to put them cows 322 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,399 together for 900 to 1,250 bucks Last 323 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,959 year they cost anywhere from 1,800 to 324 00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:04,160 two grand And it's just and the value is 325 00:11:02,959 --> 00:11:05,680 still there because I mean the fall 326 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,279 cabin cow market's really really good 327 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:09,040 right now Yeah So where okay let's think 328 00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:11,360 about that for a minute Three or four 329 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,279 years ago drought the rebreed cow goes 330 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,000 to slaughter It goes to a feed yard Okay 331 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:18,000 She gets pit on feed she gets fed Where 332 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,200 is she going today 333 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,399 i think there's guys that are rolling 334 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,000 the dice and taking her back to the 335 00:11:20,399 --> 00:11:23,360 country and trying to Yeah Okay So 336 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,320 there's a little bit of another part 337 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,800 right there that you got to think 338 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,480 through Right So she would have got cold 339 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,320 That's the Heerret market Things like 340 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,120 that you know those heers that get bred 341 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,480 and even like maybe even uh even heers 342 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,920 that would have got bred that didn't 343 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,920 that would have come back open they 344 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,519 might take another shot at her because 345 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,480 if you get her bred she's worth a lot of 346 00:11:39,519 --> 00:11:45,040 money now Yeah And like on our end of it 347 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:47,360 you know we we take the best market 348 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,640 value I think in that and we do some of 349 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:52,800 that you know I mean we do a lot quite a 350 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:55,200 bit of it every year The four fives and 351 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,480 sixy old cows you know cuz usually them 352 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,160 cows aren't aged when they come in to 353 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,360 weigh them up you know So it's basically 354 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,440 whoever the buyer is and they're getting 355 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,360 a knife or oh she's a hepheret type you 356 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,360 know she brings x amount of dollars more 357 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,600 But a four-year-old that's green and 358 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,800 just needs some energy to breed back up 359 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,040 That's a market that a lot of times 360 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,880 those people will miss But I mean you 361 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,639 see the youth in her And so now there's 362 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,959 a lot of people that like us we try to 363 00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:18,480 get into that four and five sixy old 364 00:12:16,959 --> 00:12:20,320 market to be able to cheapen those heets 365 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,760 up because it's a heer market gets 366 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,279 pretty crazy a difference Well she can 367 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,600 go to a feed yard or she can go to a cow 368 00:12:23,279 --> 00:12:26,880 man Oh yeah Or go to a or or she can go 369 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,399 to a cow plant them little green 370 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,760 two-year-olds that have raised wet bag 371 00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:31,120 2-year-olds that have raised a calf and 372 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,120 then get bred back because they had a 373 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,360 pretty tough go 374 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,200 Those are the kinds you like to pick off 375 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:40,240 They're they're a dream to get on the 376 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:42,240 right nutrition program and to get 377 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,160 fattened up and get things on you know 378 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,000 just put some energy in them and it's 379 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,800 amazing how well they cycle within a two 380 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:50,639 week span I mean it's my dad he used to 381 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,240 buy them things just like groves of them 382 00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:53,680 you know 383 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,000 And that's one reason I love it up here 384 00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:58,800 is because the cattle are so good The 385 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,240 cow herd's so good that you can set have 386 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,000 somebody set in a barn or you can be in 387 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,160 a barn and there's a lot of opportunity 388 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,560 There's a lot of opportunity to be able 389 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,000 to do that because normally you set in a 390 00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:09,760 barn it's kind of everybody's junk you 391 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,519 know Yeah You see that in Texas Oklahoma 392 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:16,040 Kansas but you get up here there's a lot 393 00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:16,040 of there's no junk in Texas Yeah 394 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,560

00:15:47,920 keep being involved in it I mean just a 469 00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:50,079 little gloating here while we're at it 470 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:53,920 So I mean 471 00:15:50,079 -->

All right So let's talk about that for a 480 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:15,040 minute You Hey you've obviously won this 481 00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:19,519 thing You're a competitor I love it Yeah 482 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:21,680 And so explain to everybody out there 483 00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:24,480 what this Logan County Cattle Women's 484 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:26,480 Kolkata is So basically it's a halfway 485 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,000 point They catch weight on the heers 486 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,000 They kick the heers in Start at the 487 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,680 beginning So in November you donate your 488 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,360 heer and you just donate her You have 489 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,519 her brand inspected to them to the Logan 490 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,839 County Cattle Women and she is theirs So 491 00:16:35,519 --> 00:16:41,519 whatever happens happens It's there's no 492 00:16:37,839 --> 00:16:43,360 guarantee on rate of return And I've got 493 00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:45,040 some friends that throughout the 494 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,360 industry whether we got a guy in 495 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:49,759 California we got people in Nebraska 496 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,519 that we all like the little competition 497 00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:53,199 I mean most people in the cattle 498 00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:55,519 industry do like a little competition 499 00:16:53,199 --> 00:16:57,519 It's it's a blast So you donate that 500 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:59,759 heer and then they feed them x amount of 501 00:16:57,519 --> 00:17:01,040 days They wait 15 days before the weight 502 00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:04,079 They get everything just kind of filled 503 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,679 up on grass Nothing on rations So they 504 00:17:04,079 --> 00:17:07,679 basically if you've got one starved down 505 00:17:05,679 --> 00:17:09,039 trying to get the shrink right cuz that 506 00:17:07,679 --> 00:17:10,959 was my big deal I'm like when you tell 507 00:17:09,039 --> 00:17:12,720 her about your secret when there is no 508 00:17:10,959 --> 00:17:16,079 secret 509 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:18,160 There is no secret So at 15 days they're 510 00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:19,839 all weighed in and then at the halfway 511 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,880 point they check them for average daily 512 00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:24,959 gain And so everybody basically will bid 513 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,039 on a heer and they'll hedge the bet 514 00:17:24,959 --> 00:17:29,039 against what their average daily gate is 515 00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:30,960 and what she looks like at the halfway 516 00:17:29,039 --> 00:17:33,440 point and what versus what she might be 517 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,679 fat And so basically you buy a heer and 518 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:38,000 you're in for three categories You're in 519 00:17:35,679 --> 00:17:40,720 for the grand champion category which 520 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,960 pays two holes or the rate of gain 521 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:45,960 category which pays 10 holes or the 522 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:48,480 carcass contest which pays 10 523 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:51,760 holes So it's kind of a unique scenario 524 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,760 So what would be the total Kolkata value 525 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,280 tonight i have no idea I mean last year 526 00:17:53,760 -->
