And local knowledge as well. In my area just 30 miles west of me and in hills makes a difference. Even on my place I think I'm in year 12 of drought I'm doing things that I have never done before. Haha guess I will see in spring if bit works

Merry Christmas

Its kind of like horse industry. Your name is everything. At least with horses you can show them to prove performance but with cattle buyers are basically taking word of the producer. It would be very tough and expensive to get established in my area with any type of purebred outfit. Not sure...

There is a guy on utube called just a few acres and he has hundreds of videos. Hopefully you can find the ones that he is talking about profit and what to expect. I for see farmers markets and direct marketing of your beef and other stuff. In my area of Alberta what you are trying to do with...

My neighbors bought a John Deere chore tractor. Has made in America stickers on it but engine was made in India or Pakistan and I think all rest of parts are China. In Alberta they sell made in Canada squeeze chute. Whole thing is made in south America and sort of assembled here. Name Brand's...

They still have Coutts boys locked up and still never had a day in court. Remember the covid protest over vaccines

My clothes i buy at ufa or peaveymart come from Bangladesh or maybe Vietnam. Canada has so many environmental laws,taxes and regulations we dont make anything anymore. I got a Brownells catalogue and was going to buy a lot of cool stuff. Brownell's is out of Iowa. American government wants me...

The Nick Johnson utube videos are very pro Wyoming. Been a while since watched the WY video's but I think riverton was worst place which compared to most other States looked like paradise. Alberta is nothing like it used to be . 2008 things really started going down hill for us. A far off...

There are these travel shows on u tube. Nick Johnson is one but there are lots of them. I haven't been in the States for probably 25 years and I watch these travel shows and I don't even recognize what I'm seeing. Honestly its hard to believe. Few places like Iowa, Wyoming and eastern M.T. still...

I'm doing well and enjoying life. Check in here every now and then. Got logged out somehow and never bothered to blog back in because nobody talking on here. Big muddy that was a good tip about outfit in cardston with !mineral. Never bought the mineral but there net wrapped is way better than...

Years ago if u tagged some people would make fun of you. Call you ear ear tag outfit. Idea being you should know all your 200 some black cows without needing a number. I started tagging when traceability kicked in after b.s.e. I think you gain when you sell pairs. Buyers know they are a real...

I used to guide hunters. I'm not sure if I like industry or not. Accessing good land to go hunting is basically impossible if your from town and don't have deep pockets. I'm talking about southern Alberta. Basically no rifle ranges and so much hassle and expense. If a young person from town...

The deckplate that moves for your arm linkage seems to get bent on the falcans. I dont know how guys do it? Falcons seem a bit heavier built overall than dewezz and ive seen dewezz bent up. Both look like great decks so for me it would probably be about price and who is closest dealer I'm still...

Trucking rates are through the roof. $5 a kilometer or fifty dollars a short ton. Then MT super b loads have to be lighter again because of their weight laws. Then exchange on dollar. Facebook is just full of scammers. Feels like everybody is in a panic. I guess this years of drought is...

To bad they can't tell if its good water or not
