He achieved some goals regarding maternal traits early on, but that left him wanting more in the realm of performance.

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.
