The World's Largest Cattle Feeder - Five Rivers Cattle

[@williamgilroy8974]

Wonderful. It lends to the story my dad used to tell, "We raise our cattle so they only have one bad day in their whole life". Great interview.

[@robertfulton7118]

I am impressed with this interview, her actual knowledge of the company and what sounds like her true experience. As a small backgrounder corporate yards are part of the reason I’ve got a place in the industry, small operations and large operations, can both operate in the same marketplace

[@keenankelley187]

Great interview. She’s a great person for telling the story

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Thanks for tuning in!

[@tetomedinawallace5955]

Great interview, great spokesperson, she is definitely passionate about feeding cattle.

[@HumbleGroundAg]

She is a great spokesperson!

[@tetomedinawallace5955]

@HumbleGroundAg indeed! Great interview! Really enjoyed it seemed it was really short even though it was a good length interview. I learned a lot!

We haul corn into Kuner every day. I wish they'd decide to take some pride in their grain handling facility.

[@rogerfuhr8067]

Great spokeswoman for US beef!

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Very well spoken!

[@johncurl9608]

Another great episode 🎉

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Appreciate the support sir!

I’ve been to Harris Ranch in Coalinnga, CA. Stayed at the company hotel. Ate at the company restaurant. Cool outfit, big time feeders.

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Will check it out next time I’m in that part of the country!

There used to be a 100000 head lot east of Scott’s bluff Nebraska Monsanto owned. It was located in a small town Minatare Nebraska , it also has a small yard that is still there, my father managed it for a small time in the 70s . My father had interviewed with Jerry Monfort and my mom worked at a Monfort pork plant in Iowa, that was eventually sold to JBS

good show. quite interesting.

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Thank you! Check out some of the others and we have a lot of great ones scheduled for 2025.

[@mikehansma3800]

What is your average mortality across all lots?

[@HumbleGroundAg]

I believe she said .28% company wide, it is later in the episode.

[@bertbinsbergen7549]

I was at John Wayne's farm in Springerville Arizona, that was in the seventies, does that still exist?

[@HumbleGroundAg]

I’m not sure will check into it!

[@scottbultje2205]

@@HumbleGroundAg yes it does but it’s all Holsteins now no beef

[@mikewarfel7511]

No mention of the growth hormones that are not used

[@BillyBob-gr8ff]

Where do all the manure go?

[@HumbleGroundAg]

They compost most of it and when we were there quite a few folks buy it to use on their fields as fertilizer.

[@loisgustafson1558]

Am retired now, but back a ways I fed cattle, 5-600 a year in Minnesota. Now that I have to buy my meat at the store........it does not hold a candle for quality and taste of what I fed. Always bought western Dakotas cattle. Where does the meat,like I used to raise, end up? , because it ain't finding its way to our local stores! .Ron

Big farming is not good for small town rural American

[@labandonaldhock80]

Small rural farms can not compete, ask the Amish.

[@JGhermaphthrman]

It would take 375,009 acres of corn annually to supply you boys.

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Quite a few acres for sure.

[@matts3227]

Why would you want this? Think of how many small farmers you put out of business. There’s no way you can properly care for that many animals. Plus all the manure you are putting on fields that’s don’t need it because you dont want to pay the trucking costs. I will keep raising my on beef thanks on my own little farm. I am not driven by greed.

[@HumbleGroundAg]

Thanks for all you do. They support a bunch of small farmers around their feedlots by buying cattle, corn, hay, etc. We hope you check out some of the other podcast guests I think you will like them if not, thanks for watching and have a great year.
