Brenda Beeson of Western Cattle Source
Brenda, involved with Western Cattle Source, shares her background in cattle farming, which started as a 4-H project with her husband. They specialize in Simmental, Sim Angus, and Angus cattle, emphasizing the benefits of crossing breeds, such as heterosis, which increases the productivity and quality of the cattle, thus enhancing their bottom line.
The cattle industry is experiencing record high prices, helping producers recover from previous financial losses. Brenda notes the strong demand for beef in the U.S. and argues that despite rising prices, beef remains an economical protein source compared to other food items like coffee or snacks.
Brenda discusses their upcoming cattle sale on March 19th in Crawford, Nebraska, featuring various cattle breeds. The event will be held at their ranch to accommodate for weather challenges. They take pride in high-quality bulls and emphasize maintaining good health and structure for breeding purposes.
