COURTESY TX FEED AND GRAIN

FEEDING THE VALLEY TX Feed and Grain Fourth-generation Arizona farmer Rohn Alder operates TX Feed and Grain, conveniently located along U.S. Highway 60 just three miles from Rancho Rio in Wickenburg. Alder’s TX Feed and Grain, named after his great-grandfather’s left-hip cattle brand, first registered in Arizona in the early 1930s, sells every quantity and quality of hay—from premium first-quality alfalfa to Bermuda, mix and steer hay.

TX Feed and Grain provides some 500 tons of steer hay to Mike Fuller’s Downtown Arena annually, and also sells hay to Kyle Chrisman at Simpson’s Ranch and Ty Yost at Rancho Rio. “I’m hands-on. I go and see the hay on the farms myself so I know when I get a specific load, the quality will be what I sell it as,” Alder, a team roper himself, said. “I want to see exactly what is going on the truck. I have a one-on-one relationship with all of the farmers I buy from, so I can ensure quality.” TX Feed and Grain delivers hay around Wickenburg for just a $20 delivery-and-stacking charge, and will travel into the mountains outside of town for just $50. “Whatever the roper needs, we try to primarily specialize in that. That’s my claim to fame. I understand the growing, processing and seasonal changes. There’s a lot to it, and that knowledge is what we bring to the table,” Alder said. The store, in its sixth year in business, also sells Nutrena feed, OH Kruse Feed and Grain, G-Farms alfalfa pellets, and Total Equine. More info: 928-684-4448
