Beef Genetics That Help Fight Global Hunger (WCP 440)

Beef Genetics That Help Fight Global Hunger (WCP 440)

Author: Clay Conry June 9, 2025 Duration: 1:02:48

America is a global leader in agriculture. Our influence has an incredibly broad reach. The problem with that is most places around the world don't have the infrastructure and supply chains to support feeding cattle like we do in America. The result is that many places around the world that have used American beef genetics (Taurus and Indicus) now routinely have 40% calf crops with most females only producing a calf every two to three years. Grant Vassberg is working to change that by finding and platforming producers in these countries that have largely stayed the course and continued to raise cattle the way their ancestors did. He does this through his company Bos Sires. He joins me again today to discuss the growth of this company since it's recent launch.

Clay Conry hosts Working Cows-Regenerative Ranching to Maximize Profitability and Soil Health, a conversation grounded in the daily realities of running a ranch as a business. This isn't just theory; it's a practical dialogue for those whose livelihoods are tied to the land. Each episode delves into the interconnected management of four critical assets: the Land, the Animals, the Money, and the People. The goal is straightforward yet profound-to explore how regenerative practices can simultaneously heal the soil and improve the bottom line. You’ll hear from experienced ranchers and other leaders who share tangible strategies for better stockmanship, financial decision-making, and leadership on and off the range. The underlying purpose of the podcast is to glorify God by creating this essential platform for knowledge exchange. Listeners tuning in will find honest discussions about increasing operational effectiveness, ensuring that the stewardship of their resources leads to greater resilience and profitability. It’s for anyone ready to move beyond conventional thinking and discover how a regenerative approach impacts every facet of a ranching operation, from earthworms to economics.
