In the last update I sent you, I spoke about the resilience of newborn calves to overcome the many obstacles they face. While that is still impressive, undoubtedly as the calving season rolls on I often encounter at least one calf that enters this world either extremely weak or otherwise unable to jump up and grab a hold of the opportunities of life. This year is no different.

For those of us in the cow-calf segment of the beef industry, this time of year is always exciting. Many of us are in the midst of our Spring calving season.

In spite of the challenges the weather conditions have brought during these early months of the year, it is always amazing to witness the vigor of newborn calves as they plow through a foot of snow. That resilience is certainly something to step back and take notice of. And even mirror in the way that we approach the tasks and hurdles of our daily lives.

BeefCast^® Conversations

Last week was very exciting. The trip to San Antonio, Texas for the Cattle Industry Annual Convention was extremely valuable. I truly enjoyed the chance to catch up with many of you and gain your perspectives. If we weren’t able to connect last week, drop me a message to let me know what’s on your mind and how we can help.

Well, the countdown to the premier beef industry event is nearly over. I hope that you have made your plans to be with us next week in San Antonio for the Cattle Industry Annual Convention and NCBA Trade Show.
