You're not allowed to bring fresh food from Mexico but it's okay for people to enter the country without permission. I live about one mile from the Rio Grande in south west Texas and see with my own eyes what's happening.
Hi all..iv been taging cattle for years here in ireland..the biggest disaster ever to hit the cattle business..its not for the farmer's benifit..it for the meat factorys to see stock numbers to rise or lower price..my american farmer..my friends stand firm this time
Up here in Alberta, land of the 'shoot shovel and shut up', they found they had no downer cows, but both provinces beside them did. The cops became involved and found the ranchers did indeed have downer cows. The ranchers had simply lied about their downer cows.Sooo, one might surmise, the 'writing down the numbers by eye', versus computer, would remove the incentive of simply lying.
You touched on it a little bit at the end but I would like to hear more from you about the organizations that are supposed to support their agricultural members, but actively work against their interests. I’m in Texas and a big topic of conversation here has been how Texas Farm Bureau lobbied against proposed legislation to limit foreign ownership of land. Texas farmers and ranchers are against this - Texas has over 30 million acres of land owned by foreign entities. Why is Farm Bureau supporting foreign ownership of US farm and ranch land? I know it comes down to corporate money, would just like to hear your take on it.
I'm here for this. Is there an effort to create a Online Marketplace for Cattlemen like yourself to sell to the public? I can create an app that sets up the infrastructure to keep inventory and sell to the public. I can build it so that you can sell Quarter / Half Cows and whomever has processing license can fill me in on what they are doing. Just an idea.
@Mis-AdventureCH no pissing match here. It just seems like if they had api integration with InstaCart , Door Dash, Uber Eats, and Amazon, there would be real change. As long as you had marketing behind it. If it's advanced and not working, then it's time for a different solution. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome is insanity.
Research the number of cattle currently slaughtered in the US per day, wk, month, year. Only then will you grasp the naivete you display suggesting a market of onesies and twosies can cover the publics appetite for beef.

We get our tags at the livestock market. For hogs, you go see the State Ag office on-site and they assign you free tags. I had to show my state ag card for them, and she wrote it down. The market will not tag hogs. For cattle, the market will tag each animal for $5 a piece, and no one ever acknowledged if these numbers were being assigned to our farm or to the market itself. Next time, I'll ask, although the livestock markets have gotten so uppity that even asking a question will get their feathers ruffled. Also, watch those market reports. They are not always accurate but always in favor of the market. We are small and family run and the crap we've had to deal with is worse than mucking the barn! The property appraiser is also being utilized to make things hard for even the small producers.
I want to remind all humanity that we own the land and if we stop producing food how are they going to live people better wake up if they loose use they loose there lively hood
This is for taxing and to get control over ranching. They want to put all the big ranchers land in the conversation of the 2050 plan. No human use, no farming,ranching or recreational use.
Took about 35 minutes for Mr. RCALF to tie this back to imports. If we choke down imports of live animals, we encourage infrastructure (feedlots and packing plants). That will lead to a cheaper option that had no benefit to our economy. We don’t care where your fruit is grown, beef is no different.
Stop making it a "western cattle rancher issue" . Until every bovine owner/breeder is represented equally, you'll never get traction. Get the dairy farmers, cow/calf producer, show people, exotic bovine owners, etc.. ALL on board with the prevention of EU mandates like this.
As much as I don’t want to see your industry in US come under restriction, as a Canadian rancher it’s really hard to sit and listen to you complain about the very reasons we have had to use Eid for 20 years from the pressure RCalf put on us to jump through all the hoops. We can work together or we can go down together divided. It’s your choice yet you try to drive a wedge in with saying all beef imported to US is unsafe then cry when your “standards” get applied back to you.

This is going to turn into a "Methane Tax" just as sure as the sun rises....

Who is making the money from this? This is where it all starts and ends. Money and control.
"DO NOT COMPLY"
Great interview on the shepherdess with congressman Massie. 'Circumvent'
Its for taxing the ranchers.
Its for counting animal farts. Carbon footprint taxes I guess.

Uh, it's being done by hundreds of producers. Not to pee on your dream, but it's well advanced.

Bill Gates & synthetic beef. No emissions
Is rhis also a way to shut down ropings, rodeo, and who they don't Iike?
You all can fall in line but as far as I’m concerned the government can get fukkkkked
Premise IDs are only associated with the USDA 840 tag.
I am just a dumb cowboy,
However question,
If these tags are made in China, covid come from China, right. This sticks in a lot of other ways as well.

This is unconstitutional take it to SCOUS who also may be compromised though
May? Ha.
Exactly, our judicial system, in many areas, is compromised as well 😢
Government bull shit
Denmark will start taxing farmers in 2030 a head. Screw these politicians
Hi. Thank you
It's not about disease!It's about control. Don't Consent!
Is all of Brazile beef coming into the US go by the same rules? Traceability??
Will they also track grass, water etc?
If they would stop shipping beef in from other countries. Beef men could make some money
Why would they do that? Increase consumers cost for benefit of a handful? If you want to be a trading nation, you have to take trade as u give.
Are they going to tag all poultry
Hope Ranchers and their kids are learning about Bitcoin.
I believe all information will be kept by the manufacturer of the RFID tag.
Interesting how there is no mandatory country of origin label for the packed beef that goes into stores, but you better tag your cattle.
Good bye real beef! Hello synthetic beef😢
None of this would happen if order followers was sfraid to treat their fellow residents like cattle.
Steve do you know Walter clouse 😭
Better yet let them all feed themselves becouse money is becoming worthless through dept minipulation
There will b no end they bring new an dumber rules😂
Creeping socialism.
Rules r m a de to b broke especially stupid rules🎉

I have to register my pets. Why don’t you have to register your cattle?
Exactly what Freedom are you losing?!?!
Why not just get the lazy money greedy people that made this up tag all the cattle for free like use ranchers do most things
Who is making millions of$ making the RFID devices?
