I'm sure there are lots on here that could use the forums as billboards, we wouldn't want to see it become a classified section, would we?
Murgen said:If it's not cattle for sale, should companies be promoting their product on Ranchers over and over again? I don't mind hearing of products once or twice, but enough is enough!
If you want to promote, do it with an ad on the main page!
How did we know that would be your answer :wink:Hey I voted YES and for good reason

I was listening to the news in my 150 minute drive back home today and there was a call for IMMEDIATE animal ID system and discussion of producers putting it into place themselves because the USDA has failed. I'm sure you heard this too and got the details. As a consultant, I was thinking it's a major business oppy and what a coup it would be if ranchers and farmers and their organizations could do this quickly while USDA was going to take forever.
