    Springfield Colorado

    My brother lives pretty close to there and works with my Mom's family on their ranch south of Las Animas. My uncle owns Baca County Feedyard at Walsh, which is about 20 miles from Springfield.

    NPPD R-Project across the Sandhills

    Our ranch was homesteaded in 1885. I'm the 5th generation to run the ranch. In my mind, I've put my whole heart into ranching, raising good cattle, and taking care of the land. To have a project like this shoved down my throat whether I like it or not just doesn't sit well with me. My...

    NPPD R-Project across the Sandhills

    Just curious if there is anyone else on here that is affected by the proposed R-Project, a 345,000-volt transmission line across Nebraska. The third round of 'open houses' is coming up in March. I am very much opposed to this project, and have brought my concerns before them to no avail. We have...

    Ag-West feeds?

    We do often like the same bulls...I'm usually the one that has the long, disappointing ride home after the sale. :) We feed the roughage equalizer 228 to our replacement heifers throughout the winter. We will combine that with prairie hay, and usually a 16% all-natural pellet. Good...

    Ag-West feeds?

    I'm not sure on that. I know for several years after that they tried to continue to market it, but most everyone in this area wasn't interested in buying from them.

    Ag-West feeds?

    I am located 32 miles from Burwell, and am familiar with the products and with Vince. I ranch with my dad, who has been feeding Ag-West Mineral since 1973. At that time, he was still working with Dr. McDonalds Feed Fort Dodge, Iowa. I'm just 25 years old, so I can't say I remember when we...

    Nebraska Property Valuation Protest

    Soapweed...we sure understand where you are coming from....one 6,000 acre block of Sandhills pasture (no meadows) went up just over 24% in valuation from 2009-2010, just as much the year before to make its valuation increase over 50% in two years. Here at the north ranch which has meadows and...

    Nebraska Water---free delivery if you live to the south

    We are pretty close.....the dam held but the spillway broke loose. I had heard that Ewing really had to work hard and work together to save the town...thoughts and prayers go out to the people who had water damage to their homes in the surrounding communities.

    Wheel Rake

    Rowse's in Nebraska make some awful good rakes. They are made pretty stout....maybe too stout for some people. Not sure what size you are looking for, but they have them in raking widths up to 50 feet. There are two types, one that pivots at the back and one they call "The Ultimate" that...

    Question for you folks in the really cold country?

    We feed with a couple Haybuster 2650 2/bale processor's and a 5-bale made by Flannery Hay Equip out of Atkinson, NE. My 2650 is equipped with scales and I'm not sure how we ever fed without scales before. It's amazing how much the hay can vary from baleyard to baleyard. It's nice to know the...

    Nebraska Deer season tomorrow

    After the first day of deer hunting here in Nebraska, I would like to ask how everyone handles trespassing. I don't like to be hard to get along with, but have several deer hunters that can't seem to stay off private property. One piece of our ranch used for summer grazing is separated from...
