Not to take any credit away from ranchers, but we had help from the "piled higher and deeper's" at our esteemed universities. Bigger, better, faster....'bigger, better' was from research to convince producers to buy inputs from the companies providing grant money! 'Faster' was because of interest rates between 15-20% on borrowed money in the late 70s-early 80s. Get it in'em, get'em done, get'em gone!!!!!

Now think about the one lesson we all learn eventually....cattle work better at their pace.

I like that quote, PureCountry...hope you don't mind me using it!!! :wink:

[QUOTE="RobertMac, post: 267681, member: 70"] Not to take any credit away from ranchers, but we had help from the "piled higher and deeper's" at our esteemed universities. Bigger, better, faster....'bigger, better' was from research to convince producers to buy inputs from the companies providing grant money! 'Faster' was because of interest rates between 15-20% on borrowed money in the late 70s-early 80s. Get it in'em, get'em done, get'em gone!!!!!
