PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

by Shelleen Smith NMCGA Executive Director

Randell Major President Magdalena Loren Patterson, President-Elect Corona Dustin Johnson NW Vice President Farmington Cliff Copeland NE Vice President Nara Visa Jeff Decker SE Vice President Lovington Roy Farr SW Vice President Datil Joe Culbertson Vice President at Large Amistad Shacey Sullivan Secretary/Treasurer Peralta Tom Sidwell Immediate Past President Quay Pat Boone Past President Elida

id-year was a great success! It was good to see everyone in person and actually get to visit. The convention started out with the Bud Eppers & Les Davis Memorial golf tournament. There was great attendance, good food, and great informational presentations. A big shout out to our sponsors, the hard work of the staff, and of course the support of our entire membership. All of this would not be possible without them.

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is proposing to list the lesser prairie-chicken as endangered in Texas and New Mexico under the Endangered Species Act. The Service is requesting comments on this proposed rule by August 2nd. Cattle Growers’ past presidents, Bill Humphries and Tom Sidwell, have been spear- heading a plan and to gather comments to head off this potential listing of the Lesser prairie chicken.

NM Cattle Growers’ has been encouraging a more hands on involvement and ownership from our committees. Chairman Ron Burnett and Vice Chairwoman Amanda Culbertson are doing a great job with the promotion and marketing subcommittee. They have created the opportunity for our youth to become involved in NMCGA through the Heritage Buckle contest that will be awarded in all 33 NM counties during their County Fairs. Please contact the NMCGA office or website for more information.

Wildlife committee Chairman Dave Kenneke and Vice Chair Tom Paterson both completed interviews with the press on behalf of our association in their qualified subject matters of elk and non-navigable waters.

Our four regional meetings are now in the books with plans for more in the future. I would like to thank our regional vice presidents for the great job they did and the staff for their coordination. We appreciate Dr. Wenzel for presenting the Beef Quality Assurance program to help producers keep up to date on new technology and programs.

While the major packers are seeing big profits, our independent cattle producers are struggling to pay their bills. There are tons of letters from Congressional leaders, agencies, and associations that have been sent to the U.S. Attorney General requesting they look into the antitrust laws. NMCGA, along with 28 additional sponsors, signed onto the letter from U.S. Senator Rounds and Senator Smith to investigate the antitrust laws and to restore fairness to the marketplace.

The consolidated four big packers who control 80 percent of all beef slaughter and which two of those are foreign owned, continue to bring foreign beef into their facilities and label it as Product of the U.S.A. Without mandatory country of origin labeling, our consumers are mis-led and this undermines the quality and price of U.S. beef. As per our resolution we passed in 2019, we support that only products that have been born, raised, and slaughtered in the United States be labeled as “Product of the U.S.A.” During the 2021 NM legislative session, HB 33 Livestock Board Meat Inspection passed unanimously through the legislature but was not heard on the senate floor because they ran out of time. According to NM Livestock Board Director, Belinda Garland, the NMLB has jurisdiction under the livestock code to promulgate rules for meat inspections. The NMLB voted June 10th to reinstate the In-State Meat Inspection program with funding awarded them during the legislative session. This is a good start to helping our small and homegrown packing plants.

Praying for good Summer rains and my best to you all!

Until next time, Randell Major, President

WIT & WISDOM

by Caren Cowan, Publisher New Mexico Stockman

Just Imagine…

N

ew Mexico green from end to end and from side to side with lush plants providing grains, fruits and vegetables to feed everyone. That’s what some people think this land looked like before cattle and sheep arrived and were allowed to terribly over graze. They think that concentrating on soil health will bring the state back to this perception of something that never was and never can be.

I certainly will admit that the Land of Enchantment can be green from end to end with creeks running and tank water caught because I think most parts of the state are that way now. There may be some places that haven’t been blessed yet but at least most are out of the cruel drought. They can plan to move forward with herd improvement instead of loading their cattle into trucks and hauling them to market.

JULY 2021

Way too many cattle are already gone and there is question as to whether they will ever come back or be replaced.

Soil heath has always been a primary concern for ranchers and farmers who generally pass their land on from generation to generation. They want to leave it in the best condition possible so their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and beyond will be able to feed themselves and countless others.

But soil health treatments are not going to change the types of soil which vary so much across New Mexico and they are not going make it rain. The primary component in improving soil heath is water. You can manage water so that it does the most good in the most places, but you cannot create it.

Of course some of these same people have stated that farmers do not pay their farm workers to eat healthy foods.

There is no doubt that there is a hunger problem in New Mexico in both urban and rural areas, but blaming the problem on ranchers and farmers will do nothing to solve the problem.

think if they ignore what’s going on at the Mexican border it isn’t really happening.

But that’s part of the popular media’s big lie and it is apparently really easy to buy in.

What we see on Fox News is bad enough with unaccompanied children, families and groups of young males from around the world crossing into Texas by the hundreds if not thousands on a daily basis.

What you don’t see much of are the groups of young males dressed in camouflage carrying heavy backpacks coming through the funnels in the border wall in New Mexico. These individuals are not turning themselves in and do their best to remain out of sight… while they walk by ranch houses filled with ranch families.

What you don’t see much of is the damage they do as they are crossing ranch country. Last month a 10,000 gallon water tank was drained by illegals who broke a pipe to get water.

Fox News has followed the plight of the Johnson family in Luna County as they try to survive not only the drought, but the onslaught of illegals avoiding border crossing and evading capture. On June 30, 2021

In another fairy tale…

Russell Johnson called out Democrats for the way the border issue in New Mexico has been and is being issued.

That same day one Albuquerque television reported that a New Mexico Republican Legislator asked the Governor to send the National Guard to the border. At press time, there had been no response to that letter.

Meanwhile in response to a call for aide from the Governors of Texas and Arizona, the states of Florida, Idaho and South

Dakota have or are sending troops to help at the border. The $50,000 for South Dakota was donated to that state by a Republican that could afford to do so.

It is well past time that we all start helping our friends and neighbors at the border. Just shaking our heads at what a shame this is doesn’t cut it. It is time to DO SOMETHING! On pages 66 and 67 of this publication are the names and addresses of every member of the New Mexico Legislature along with the same information for the state’s members of Congress.

Please pick at least five (5) of these people, preferably your state representative and state senator, your member of congressional representative and at least one federal senator, and write a letter demanding swift attention to the flow of illegal immigrants through New Mexico ranches. If you’d like help with a letter, please email me at caren@carenforag.com and I will be happy to help.

You can send the same letter to all of them and if you have a copy machine, why not send 10 letters? Until we stand up for ourselves and our neighbors we are doomed.

The Other Ignored Issue The U.S. Department of State has a travel warning for all of Mexico due to COVID. We hear nightly that Americans need to get vaccinated for COVID. Yet, we have tens of thousands of people from around the world entering our country with little evidence of COVID testing or vaccination.

New Mexico was closed for business for 15 months due to COVID and the fear of transmission, but there has been nary a word in New Mexico media about the threat of COVID from illegal crossings at the border.

This kind of action is just a tune-up for what needs to come for the 2022 elections.

I know, we are all tired and probably disgusted with what happened in 2020.

However, the 2022 election has started and we need to be in on the ground floor.

There are at least four announced Republican candidates for governor with another one or two rumored. Now is the time to pick a candidate and get behind them. We can only hope that there won’t be a bloody primary that spends so much money that there are no funds left for the general. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has made known that she is running for a second term.

Every election we say this is the most important election in our lifetimes. Dare I repeat myself? We saw what happened in 2020. We can change that if we have the will.

Gas Prices a Partisan Issue?

A gallon of gasoline is the most expensive in seven years, but the once-powerful economic indicator isn’t pressing the Administration’s energy policies — partly because gas prices sway Democrats and Republicans separate, according to businesshala.com in a July 3, 2021 story.

“According to the American Automobile Association, over Independence Day weekend, when road trips are expected to be near a record, the nationwide average was $3.12 per gallon. This is 44 percent higher than a year ago, when oil prices were in free fall due to supply and pandemic-constrained demand.

“That kind of increase may have been a cause for alarm in the White House in recent decades, when voters often vented their frustrations over energy costs on the incumbent president. A 2016 study of presidential approval ratings from Gerald Ford to George W. Bush found that every 10-percent increase in gas prices resulted in a 0.6 percentage point decrease in presidential approval after controlling for other factors.

“Yet while Biden’s approval rating has slipped since Memorial Day, RealClearPolitics’ average hit the lowest level of his presidency on July 2, 2021 with 51.7 Percent approval and 44.5 Percent disapproving, the changing politics of gas prices is giving Biden more leeway to pursue a clean-energy agenda backed by progressive Democrats, the cost of which has been disproportionately borne by Republicans.

“The pain of high gas prices is often experi-

enced differently by Democrats and Republicans because of geography, usage patterns, and even perception.

“According to a recent University of Michigan consumer survey, Republicans worry more about sharper prices than Democrats, expecting a 33 percent increase per gallon next year. This is more than five times the increase expected by Democrats.”

It is hard to believe that in a state like New Mexico with vast rural areas and high poverty ratings that this holds true.

We’re from the government…

This statement took on a whole new meaning when President Biden announced that he would be sending people door-todoor to encourage (at least I hope it is only to encourage) the unvaccinated to get COVID vaccinated.

However the saying also applies to the help that has been sought from the government, both Congress and the Administration, to address the crisis in the beef industry.

Ranchers are struggling to survive while packers are making obscene profits.

Numerous bills have been introduced in Congress in an attempt to address the situation. The US Department of Agriculture is involved in investigations, yet there doesn’t

seem to be any fix in sight.

There are those that say, and rightfully so, that asking for help from the government will only bring on more problems.

Regulation and oversight for ranchers come quickly to mind.

On the other hand, we have a noted agricultural economist telling us that the entire issue is nothing but supply and demand. Keep moving, there is nothing to see here.

It is hard to believe that anyone could, with a straight face, call today’s situation simply supply and demand. But I guess you could look at it that way taking into account the fact that 80 percent of the demand is controlled by just four companies.

An Executive Order is expected in the near future to give U.S. farmers more power in negotiating the sale of livestock to big processors and in deciding who repairs their tractors as well as several other issues .

his month has been one of those months that demonstrate the good, the bad and the ugly of our nation and state. Nevertheless, the New Mexico Stockman’s midyear meeting in Ruidoso New Mexico has come and gone. It was a joyous time for all of us to see members and old friends we hadn’t seen since 2019 due to Covid. Old friends reconnected, and new friendships were made. The CowBelle organization signed up some new members, which is reassuring that the CowBelle organization is standing strong.

Along with the good came the bad.

There were normal conversations about ranching, cattle prices, cost of feed, minerals, lack of last year’s grass and of course the big topic of lack of rain fall, water wells getting low or drying up and earth tanks empty. Then other conversations about the disappointment of the government and its interference with ranching issues

Last and certainly not least is the ugly the 30/30 Biden/Harris program, a radical and aggressive push by environmental activists to put 30 percent of the land and water under permanent protection by the year 2030. If you haven’t read the article in the June edition of New Mexico Stockman, page 30, by Karen Budd Falen, Budd Falen Law firm, it’s a must read. It is an eye opener as to what DC has planned for our Agriculture economic future. Another subject is the M.H. Dutch Salmon Greater Gila Wild & Scenic River Act. It puts agriculture, mining economy, and jobs at risk. Heritage Waters is sharing the truth about misinformation.

The Southwest is dealing with the wolf population multiplying, which was discovered in the NW states that wolves destroyed livestock and wildlife at a rapid pace. Lastly,

the wildfires blazing from the lack of brush control due to control from the feds which leads to erosion problems.

The CowBelles and several groups are trying to get our voices heard to show this great country and the world, we are not going to stop fighting for our way of life.

Education is a full-time job – teaching Americans and other countries that we are the original land stewards and how the beef industry is used in our daily lives,not just on a dinner plate. We are the backbone of the USA, and everyone needs the beef industry.

Agriculturalists take the good, the bad and the ugly and use it to our advantage.

“Look straight ahead and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark a straight path for your feet: stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked.”

There was a discussion about having a short interview with each applicant. It seems that some students may have a discrepancy in what they write in their application as opposed to what they announce at the graduation ceremony. There will be additional discussion in this matter. This year the $500 academic scholarship declared the Stanley Harper Scholarship, as he has very generously contributed to the organization the past several years. The group hopes to have the recipients of both scholarships available at the County Fair Sale to receive their awards. These scholarships will be sent to the Admission Office of their chosen institution of learning once they have enrolled. The group is waiting to see whom their $300 sponsorship sent to the NM Youth Ranch Management this year, money sent once notified. The Silver Spur CowBelles will contribute $150 for Rachel to attend the midyear meeting of the NMCGA. Rachel will pay the other half of the regis-

Also, the health fair may be held in the fall. “Always Loving Mankind” is an organization to donate beef dollars. Rachel has experience with this organization and is very impressed. The group voted to donate $100 to the Colfax County Barbecue. The group additionally wants to advertise in the Fair Book. Kristy Rubio (Ag instructor in Maxwell) may be the person to contact. Josh Harty is now the president of the fair board. The theme for this year is “200 Years on the Santa Fe Trail.”

Jimmy Lavato will receive the “Man of the Year” plaque. Rachel will get it. The group will get flowers for Betsy. Please send cards to Bill Sauble. DATES TO REMEMBER: The next meeting will tentatively be July 22 in Cimarron. Rachel and Gayann will be hostesses for this meeting. Meeting was adjourned. Enjoy summer and the wonderful rains.

2021 Pat Nowlin Memorial Scholarship Recipients Chosen

by NM CowBelles

Patronize Our Advertisers

E

ach year the NM CowBelles accept scholarship applications to honor the memory of Pat Nowlin who was instrumental in starting the first CowBelle organization in Arizona in 1947 followed by the New Mexico organization in 1957 when she moved to Cimarron, New Mexico.

Nowlin served as the first NM CowBelle president as well as the secretary / treasurer for the American National Cattlewomen.

The NM CowBelles are pleased to announce the 2021 recipients of the Pat Nowlin Memorial Scholarship. The $500 upperclassman scholarship winner is Koelle Brandenberger of Claunch, who is currently pursuing a degree in agribusiness at West Texas A & M University in Canyon, Texas with plans to become an agriculture appraiser. Brandenberger was recently named to the WTA&M president’s list and is actively involved in leadership opportunities through the Block and Bridle organization and Agribusiness Club. As a member of the college meats judging team, which earned reserve champion honors at competitions in Denver and Fort Worth, Brandenberger remains close to her roots having grown up on her family cattle ranch and showing cattle through 4-H and FFA. Capitan High School leadership positions in national honor society, student council, and FFA led to Brandenberger’s decision to also become involved as a member of the NM CowBelles and the Crown CowBelle in order to remain connected to the beef industry.

Two additional scholarship winners will each receive $500 as graduating high school seniors. Emily Gossett, a member of the Copper Cowbelles and recent graduate of Silver City High School, plans to attend New Mexico State University to major in agriculture communications and education.

While in high school, Gossett held numerous leadership positions in her local FFA chapter as well as district and state level FFA officer positions including District VI President and State Vice President. As a FFA state officer, Gossett and her team members developed the Evolve Podcast, which discussed the importance of agriculture in NM continued on page 26 >> JULY 2021

Riley Clavel, who also receives a $500 scholarship, is a Roy High School graduate and daughter of Blair and Darcie Clavel, who is a member of the Pinon CowBelles.

Raised in Harding County on the family’s 100+ year old ranch, Clavel learned firsthand the value of hard work and the importance of the agriculture industry to her family and others. With a strong back-

ground in 4-H and FFA, Clavel excelled in showing cattle and horses, judging livestock, competing in a variety of other contest areas and receiving numerous local, state, regional and national awards, including the National FFA Achievement in Agriculture award. Leadership positions and achievements in FFA, 4-H, student council, national honor society and varsity athletics, as well a strong record of community service, will serve her well as she pursues a career in agri-business while attending Hastings College in Hastings, Nebraska.

Congratulations to each of our scholarship winners!

New Beef Ambassadors

T

he New Mexico CowBelles are proud to introduce their 2021-2022 Beef Ambassadors who were chosen during the mid-year meeting in June.

Joanie Vance was born and raised on her family ranch just east of Tucumcari and has always been involved in feeding and working cattle. “When school shut down in March of 2020, I dove in headfirst,” says Joanie. “Ever since then I have become more and more involved in, and passionate about, ranching and the beef industry. I recently graduated high school and will be attending Clarendon College this fall. The knowledge I have gained through the last year has set my soul on fire for the Ag industry and I am greatly honored to be one of this year’s Beef Ambassadors.”

Fallon Velasquez is from Hondo and is currently attending NMSU studying Agriculture Education and Extension. Her family raises registered Miniature Hereford cattle and she is a Beef Ambassador because she wants “to be able to promote a positive attitude about the goodness of beef, the greatness of the industry, and why we need to stand behind every beef producer in America!” Fallon says “I look forward to a future in the beef industry and will work towards improving on my knowledge as well as my skills to be a great cattlewoman in the industry.”

“I live on a ranch southwest of Hope and am actively involved in my local FFA chapter in Artesia,” says Callie Bennett who is a high school sophomore. “The passion of the cattle industry comes easy to me because that is all I know. Growing up on a ranch taught me responsibility at a young age.

Starting at the age of nine, I invested in purchasing my own show animals, and I have shown animal for the past seven years.

It is now my turn to advocate for the beef industry that has shaped my life.”

Dalene Hodnett, coordinator for the New Mexico CowBelles Beef Ambassador program, is excited about working with these stellar agricultural youth. “Their ability to tell the beef story is amazing and proves the future of New Mexico ag is in good hands. It’s going to be a great year of beef promotion.”

To Defeat an Insidious Enemy

by Myles Culbertson

T

hey were partners, business partners in a father-son ranching enterprise.

They were good partners, doing and being what they had always known and loved. They thrived off each other, learned from each other, relied on each other. In the farming, ranching, and livestock business, these partnerships are not unusual, and their attributes are common virtues. It is a matter of legacy. Legacy unbroken, unswerving, dependable. Legacy to reach across the decades.

He had learned from his father, had been guided by example, had acquired the generational codes of the culture, had learned faith, loyalty, self-reliance, optimism, independence. These things were not the subjects of conscious reflection. Neither of them gave it much thought. It just was.

Theirs was a permanent, seemingly indestructible world. Any thought of less than

that wasn’t worth worrying about. That’s how it is in the business. Dedicated, resilient family partnerships in agriculture are common, and that’s why this could be anyone’s story.

From the ranch 300 miles away, he had jotted off a short letter, letting his partner, who had just returned from an extended trip, know about the recent rains and how the cattle were doing. He ended it with “Welcome home.”

Then, the phone call. “Your dad has cancer. It’s not good.”

He was unable to process what he had heard. He needed air. Stunned, kicked in the gut, he leaned in pain against the fence, gazing across the rolling landscape at the horizon, not really seeing anything, his mind and heart reeling. “It can’t be. He’s invincible. It can’t be.” He felt alone, powerless against a foe never anticipated.

Every possible thing was done from medical care to prayer, and everything in between, but his partner was gone in a few months. The illusory notion of invulnerability had been forever erased.

Cancer is an insidious enemy, a sinister prowler that attacks without regard to age, race, sex, station in life, – no qualifiers. It is a stealthy enemy that invades the body

before declaring itself, wreaking heartbreak, disillusionment, desperation; pulling the rug out from under the victims, their families and their communities. It is safe to say every person in our society has been directly or indirectly touched by this raider.

Its damage and destruction can be continually re-described, its millions of stories retold, but Americans do not dwell on stories. They get in the fight. Americans, like the “cowb oys” of Cowb oys for Cancer Research.

Kenneth Cohorn was a farmer, contractor, and team roper well known in the Mesilla Valley. They were a rodeo family.

Son Larry had been an AJRA Champion Calf Roper in the ‘60s, and PRCA National Finals Rodeo qualifier in the ‘70s. In 1981, when Kenneth’s wife Alma succumbed after a hard battle with breast cancer, some cowboys got together, wanting to do something in her memory, and organized a team roping and BBQ for a fundraiser. The event raised about $700, and they presented it to the University of New Mexico Cancer Center in Alma’s memory, to be spent “where it is most needed.” It had been a good event and a fitting tribute to their friend, so they decided to do it again the next year. The roping soon became an anticipated annual event.

They called it Cowboys for Cancer Research (C4CR). They were not professional organizers or fundraisers by any stretch of the imagination, just a little bunch of cowboys and their friends who saw an opportunity to take at least some fight to the enemy. At the time they could not have predicted the scope of what they had begun. The ropings grew to become one of the big “go-to” events in the region and, over the years, they were coupled with barbecues, dinner dances, auctions, golf tournaments, and more.

Since that first $700, C4CR has raised over ten million dollars in cash and in-kind donations, for the cause of cancer research.

The Alma Cohorn Memorial C4CR Endowment has grown to more than $2,500,000.

The NMSU Foundation’s C4CR Endowed Fund has reached almost $1,500,000. In addition, the Elise P. Barry estate has funded two cancer research professorships now worth a combined total of $700,000. C4CR contributes to these endowments each year, but the vast majority of contributions received go to be used immediately for direct research, true to the tradition of “where it is most needed.” continued on page 33 >>

The Beef Checkoff Celebrates 35 Years

T

his year marks the 35th Anniversary of the Beef Checkoff. The Checkoff has significantly and positively altered the beef industry’s course, and has brought producers, industry organizations, and stakeholders together with a common purpose: driving demand for beef. In thinking back to the Checkoff’s first advertising campaign that launched in 1987, “Beef: Real Food for Real People.”, featuring celebrity James Garner, it's quite possible that some of today’s producers might be, a) too young to remember beef’s first celebrity spokesman, or b) perhaps were not even born yet. Regardless of age, the impact the Checkoff has on beef demand, and ultimately our operations, is significant. The following list highlights Checkoff-funded work that has enhanced and added value to our beef products:

ЇЇ Improvements in pre- and postharvest safety protocols to remove carcass/product contamination

COUNCIL ЇЇ And much more ... 35 Years – Driving Strong Demand for Beef! www.beefboard. org/2021/01/25/ the-beef-checkoffthroughout-the-years

To highlight the milestones and achievements that have taken place throughout the years, the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB) will be celebrating the Checkoff’s 35th Anniversary at the Cattle Industry Convention/Summer Business Meeting in Nashville, TN. The celebration will begin on Tuesday, August 10 at the Opening General Session and will include a look at how the Checkoff has evolved and changed over the years.

On Wednesday, August 11, be sure to join your fellow producers for a special 35th Anniversary reception. Whether you are relatively young (more of the Matthew McConaughey era) or have been involved in the industry a bit longer (the James Garner era), you can celebrate the past, present, and future of the Beef Checkoff.

Answers to Your Questions About the Beef Checkoff

H

ow do I pay into the checkoff?

By law, all producers selling cattle or calves, for any reason and regardless of age or sex, must pay $1 per head to support beef/veal promotion, research and information through the Beef Promotion and Research Act. You pay the checkoff when you sell or transfer the ownership of cattle. Typically, the NM Livestock Board Inspectors collect the Checkoff when they finalize your sale and forward it to the NM Beef Council.

The New Mexico Beef Council keeps 50 cents of every dollar collected for in state programs.

What is the Cattlemen’s Beef Board? Who serves? How are they paid?

The Cattlemen’s Beef Promotion and Research Board, usually referred to as the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB), oversees the Beef Checkoff program which was established in the Beef Promotion and Research Act as part of the 1985 Farm Bill. CBB manages the collection of $1 per head on all cattle sold in the U.S. and $1 per head equivalent on imported cattle, beef and beef products.

CBB is also responsible for approving the annual budget for its national checkoff-funded programs.

CBB currently consists of 99 members who are individually nominated by certified nominating organizations and appointed by the Secretary of Agriculture to serve a three-year term.

Members include domestic beef, dairy and veal producers, as well as importers of beef and beef products.

Nominating organizations represent beef and dairy producers in 32 individual states and six state units, where states are grouped together to form enough cattle numbers for a seat, based on the number of cattle in each state. Importer appointments are drawn from nominaContinued on next page ...

tions by importer associations. The number of Board members is established according to the number of cattle in the state or region; 500,000 head for the first Board member and 1,000,000 head for each additional member. Importer numbers are established in the same manner.

Members serve without pay, but may be reimbursed for travel and direct business expenses associated with serving on the CBB. Bill King, Moriarty, serves as the New Mexico Director to the CBB. How can I be involved in the Beef Checkoff?

For many producers, the best place to get involved is by attending state board meetings or even becoming a member of the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB). The NM Beef Council meets five times a year and welcomes your participation in these meetings.

How is the checkoff promoting beef in a healthy diet?

“Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner.” brand, the checkoff is sharing recipes, nutritional facts and the dietary benefits of eating beef with consumers.

Does the CBB support governmental or regulatory policy issues?

According to the Beef Promotion and Research Act, checkoff funds cannot be used to influence government policy or action, including lobbying.

ENEMY

<< cont from page 30

Because of the dedication of folks like C4CR, more people are winning their battles, and fewer types of cancer are presumed terminal.

In 2001, Denny and Geraldine Calhoun hosted the Cowboys for Cancer Research Roping at their arena. This began a whole new level of involvement by Denny and Geraldine, who eventually became co-executive directors of C4CR in 2010, dedicating themselves to organizing events, traveling, speaking and representing the organization across the country.

In 2020, Covid caused C4CR to cancel all its planned events, including the roping, the dinner dance & auction, and the annual golf tournament. With no scheduled fundraising events, the year looked bleak, yet C4CR received $154,000 in voluntary donations, a testimony to the quality of C4CR and that of its supporters.

New leaders continue to come aboard as the vision for C4CR continues to broaden.

New C4CR Board President Joe Delk says it like this: “I’m involved in Cowboys for Cancer Research because the day my sister died, she said to me, ‘I’m not ready to go, but I don’t have a choice.’ However, we know we do have a choice to not let that be the end. Her memory keeps us going and believing in the day when this enemy is defeated. That day is coming.”

In some cultures it is forbidden to speak the names of those who died. It seems a tragedy to shun the end of a life with silence, to disallow the memory from blessing the future. Americans don’t do that. They draw on the cowboy’s image of grit and determination, and they unabashedly bring the memories, and the names, of the fallen along with them.

It began with Alma Cohorn. Since then, every time a dollar is given, an hour is volunteered, a research project is started, a good time is had at a roping or meal or dance, we do speak their names. We do these things because we are called by them to join in the defeat of this insidious enemy.

Like the man whose business partner was taken too soon, his partner is remembered, and like all the others, he calls us to the fight.

Speak their names. www.C4CR.COM

RIDING HERD

by Lee Pitts

Purse Turtles

I

think there wouldn’t be near as many gangs, kids killing kids or troubled teenagers today if more urban kids had pets.

My best friend in high school didn’t speak a word of French, knew no calculus and didn’t play on the football team.

(Neither did I.) I think I had the potential to be a rebellious bad boy but I had a wonderful dog who loved me unconditionally and got me through my difficult teenage years.

I had other pets too: steers, lambs, pigs, cows, ducks, rabbits, chickens and heaven forbid, even a cat. Our house was filled with pets too as we always had a canary or a parakeet and the goldfish bowl always had one or two residents, even though we had a hard time keeping the goldfish because we lived in earthquake country and they kept sloshing out of the bowl. We also had several of those very small turtles that lived in a plastic dish with a palm tree sticking out of it. The tiny turtles didn’t last very long but they were way more social than the big turtle we had that I saw twice in ten years.

I was inspired to write about turtles because a dear friend recently “adopted” a pet turtle for her cute two-year-old daughter. They went to a “Turtle Rescue Preserve” where there were over 300 turtles in all sizes and ages that people had dropped off or were discovered in places they shouldn’t be... like sitting atop a fence post where they were placed as a sick practical joke.

My friends paid $85 for their turtle which they optimistically named Buddy, not really knowing if it was a he or a she.

(How does one tell?) My friends were immediately drawn to Buddy because of its handicap: someone had painted Buddy’s shell a bright white, probably so it was easier to find than our turtle was.

When my friends go to the lake for the weekend the mother-in-law visits Buddy twice a day to feed it at home a chilled Romaine/Iceberg lettuce mix.

I was curious about the pet turtle market so the next time I was in town I visited a pet store and asked the aggressive salesman if he had anything that would make a nice housewarming gift for Buddy. He showed me several turtle padded beds, leashes that looked exactly like the ones they sold for dogs and turtle houses, which seems redundant. He also suggested “enrichment toys” to foster Buddy’s mental acuity, a pet sounds music CD, and a loofah brush and chamomile and lavender body wash with which my friends should massage Buddy religiously twice a day to remove the paint. I understand some of the white on Buddy’s shell has now faded to a dull grey, probably the primer coat.

Have you seen these purses in which women haul around their small dogs?

The salesman showed me a turtle purse for Buddy and also a backpack to haul him because he walks at a slower pace than most humans. The “bio-accessory” backpack could also be turned around so Buddy could see where’s he’s going instead of where he’s been.

No doubt you’ve seen “service dogs” and even “service pot-bellied pigs” in the grocery store and I feel confident in saying you’ll someday soon see “service turtles”.

When you think about it, turtles have many advantages as pets compared to dogs. They don’t bark, a turtle can breathe through its butt (really), they don’t have to sit next to you in the truck and stick their head out the window, and when they get wet and “shake” they don’t drench you in water. You don’t have to constantly throw them slobbery tennis balls because no matter how many times you try, the turtle will not retrieve the ball. They can’t be taught hard tricks like rolling over or sitting, but they are unrivaled at playing dead. Veterinary bills are less too because they won’t pull a muscle trying to jump in and out the truck and they don’t drink out of the toilet like my dog did who suffered several concussions from being hit on the head by falling toilet seats.

Turtles also live a long time and there’s not near the emotional loss when one does die because you probably had no idea where it was anyway.

Rabobank Analyst Pitches Fix for Beef Producer-Packer Price Divide

U

sing beef cutout values as the means to determine a weekly base price for fed steers would make “moot” variations among transaction types that are fueling a growing rift among cattle producers.

So says Don Close, senior animal protein analyst with Rabobank, in a new report culminating from a study that compared all transaction types from 2014 to 2020 in order to verify or dispel price disparity claims and sought to offer an alternative market structure.

The study comes amidst a growing chorus of complaints among some cattle producers who allege the widening disparity in the price for fed steers and beef cutout values are a matter of meatpacker market power and unfair price discovery.

Those concerns have grown over many years as the industry has transitioned away from cash sales to more formula or grid-based transactions that have enabled increased carcass quality. And they have been exacerbated in the last two years from the market disruptions caused by the fire at Tyson Foods’ Holcomb, Kan., plant in the summer of 2019 and the COVID-19 outbreak that caused plant shutdowns in the spring of 2020.

Those events have combined with a 6 million-head increase in cattle inventory since 2014, constrained slaughter capacity, tight labor and historic domestic and export beef demand to help widen the spread between fed steer prices and beef cutout values.

“We just had one event after another,” Close told Meatingplace in an interview.

Commensurate with that divide has been a growing divide between packers and producers, the latter of which have renewed calls for the Department of Justice to dig deeper into possible packer antitrust activity.

“You will find, if you go back and look over history, when we get to this level of discontent within the industry, it very closely aligns to the extremes in that leverage index,” Close says.

Against that backdrop, Rabobank sought some answers about alleged price disparities. Close and his team did so by converting various transaction types to a live animal equivalency, enabling them to overlay all price series by transaction type and market region.

Ultimately, Close says, “The argument that there are huge disparities between transaction types simply is not true. That’s one of the big myths that I would like to put to rest with this [study].”

New method Meanwhile, once all those transaction types were converted to a live equivalency basis, Rabobank ran a ratio of the aggregate of cash prices to cutout value and drop credit, finding a tight price range among transaction types with as many cattle above the average as below. It’s there where Close and team discovered ways the industry could establish a base price of live cattle off of cutout value and drop credit. Final pricing would still require some negotiations between producer and packer, he notes.

However, the new method would address transparency concerns, Close writes in his report, because the base price for fed cattle would be determined from thousands of boxed beef sales

from a wide range of end users instead of cash cattle bids determined primarily from four packers with essentially the same business models.

“If we were to make that leap to pricing a cutout value, it would make all this infighting in the industry between the different types of sellers moot,” Close told Meatingplace.

Among other benefits of pricing the live animal off of the cutout value, meanwhile, is that cattle feeders could potentially gain a larger share of the profits that packers are increasingly generating from value-added products, and could then pay more to stockers and cow-calf operators for quality replacement cattle.

Meanwhile, with fed cattle supplies expected to contract in the second half of 2021, cattle feeders’ market leverage should improve.

“The conclusion of this study shows the current frustration in the market is due to the imbalance of cattle supply to packing capacity and the loss of leverage, not a breakdown of price discovery,” Close wrote in his report.

TOUGH ENOUGH FOR BISON-TOUGH ENOUGH FOR CATTLE

We met up with Brock Toler with Back Forty Bison and asked him a few questions about his opinion on the effectiveness of the Lewis Cattle Oilers.

Brock is the ranch mana er for Back Forty Bison near Dadeville, MO. Brock was skeptical, at first, on the durability of the Oilers. qBison are notorious for tearin thin s up....flippin thin s over....To bison, everythin ’s a toy! To this date, they haven’t tipped one over! The durability has really been surprisin ”.

The bi est thin that Brock loves about the Oiler is the efficiency.

n an effort to ensure fairer and more resilient markets for farmers, ranchers, and producers, the USDA will strengthen its enforcement of the Packers and Stockyards Act, according to a release from the agency.

Originally passed in 1921, the Packers and Stockyards Act was designed to protect cattle ranchers, poultry farmers, and hog farmers from unfair, deceptive, and anti- competitive practices in the meat markets.

The USDA’s strengthening involves three steps: ЇЇ

First, the USDA will propose a new rule to provide greater clarity in its enforcement of “unfair and deceptive practices, undue preferences, and unjust prejudices,” according to the release.

ЇЇ

Second, the USDA will propose a new poultry grower tournament system rule (the current, inactive proposal will be withdrawn).

ЇЇ

Third, the USDA will re-propose a rule that parties do not need to demonstrate harm to competition in order to bring an action under section 202 (a) and 202 (b) of the P&S Act.

“In the bison industry, the oiler pays for itself in one year” -Brock Toler, Back Forty Bison "They are so efficient! With the fact that they are not gravity fed, I’m not losing a bunch of product on the ground! The pump administers only the amount that needs to be put out on the animal! With the Lewis Cattle Oiler, there is no waste. I can fill up the 8 gallon tank, on the Oiler, and it will last all summer long with the bison scratching on it ALL the time!”

Tom Vilsack, the agriculture secretary, referenced the meat industry’s concentration in remarks accompanying the release.

“The pandemic and other recent events have revealed how concentration can take a painful toll on independent farmers and ranchers, while exposing working family consumers to higher prices and uncertain output,” Vilsack said. “The Packers and Stockyards Act is a vital tool for protecting farmers and ranchers from excessive concentration and unfair, deceptive practices in the poultry, hog, and cattle markets, but the law is 100 years old and needs to take into account modern market dynamics. It should not be used as a safe harbor for bad actors. The process we’re beginning today will seek to strengthen the fairness and

resiliency of livestock markets on behalf of farmers, ranchers and growers.”

USDA actions The USDA’s announcement regarding the Packers and Stockyards Act completes a busy week for the agency, one that saw it make numerous announcements pertaining to the meat industry.

In addition to a $4 billion initiative to strengthen local processing and market transparency, the USDA also announced a $1 billion investment in emergency food programs, as well as the addition of South Dakota to the Cooperative Interstate Shipment agreement.

NMDA Recognizes Exemplary Employees with 2021 Awards

T

he past year has brought upon new challenges for everyone in all walks of life, including the workplace. Luckily, there were countless individuals who stepped up to the plate and worked diligently in order to ensure that agriculture-related industries prospered as much as possible. The New Mexico Department of Agriculture acknowledged and awarded some of those individuals in May. The department issued 2021 Distinguished Service Awards to two employees that demonstrated dedication to duty, innovations, public service, human relations or other achievements. The first of these was awarded to Patricia Depner from the Agricultural Programs and Resources (APR) Division. Serving as the program coordinator for the APR Division, Patricia’s work is of critical importance and allows for the rest of the department to flourish.

New Mexico Secretary of Agriculture Jeff Witte said Patricia has taken on a great deal of hard work during the legislative sessions in the last several years, in addition to her normal duties as program coordinator.

“Patricia stays on top of what legislation we are tracking, as well as the status of the items we’re analyzing,” said Witte. “She stays up late to provide our team with new information and works with many individuals across NMDA and within the legislative system. She is both a dedicated and unselfish member or our team.”

Marshal Wilson from the Agricultural Production Services Division also received a 2021 Distinguished Service Award. Having only recently assumed his position of Assistant Division Director when the pandemic hit in spring of 2020, he hit the ground running.

“Marshal worked diligently and unselfishly during the pandemic,” said Witte. “The New Mexico Department of Homeland Security & Emergency Management leaned on him heavily for guidance and leadership regarding food supply. His efforts definitely did not go unnoticed.”

The department also issued the Exemplary Colleague Award. In its second year of

JULY 2021

37

existence, the award was granted to an individual through nominations from her coworkers that recognized the quality of her work, positivity and professionalism.

The 2021 Exemplary Colleague Award went to Kim Reiten, a veterinary laboratory scientist for the Veterinary Diagnostic Services (VDS) Division.

“Several of Kim’s colleagues had exceptional things to say about her,” said Witte.

“Kim consistently steps up, encourages others, is supportive and understanding, is always willing to help and really cares about the quality of her work. It’s evident she wants the best for our clients at VDS.” Lastly, NMDA granted the Secretary Honor’s Award to an entire team that made all the difference in this last year – the Information Technology & Communications team.

“For several years, the NMDA leadership team has talked about preparing for the event that our building would not be available,” said Witte. “How would we handle finances, or communications? Would we be prepared? There was one group that ensured we were. Everyone contributed to the successful transformation toward working from home, but the ITC team truly made it happen. This special group made sure our operations could communicate, connect, access and more to what we needed to maintain operations. Led by Tony Marquez, Karen Carter, Joel Johnson, David Parada, Jerry Shakal, Shannon Smith and their students – successful teleworking was ensured for all of us.”

Multiple employees were recognized for their various milestone anniversaries working at NMDA – some of whom have worked at the department for 40 years.

The New Mexico Department of Agriculture is proud to acknowledge all of these individuals, plus countless others who have ensured another year of success and growth within the agricultural industry for not only the department, but the entire state of New Mexico.

NEW MEXICO’S OLD TIMES & OLD TIMERS

by Don Bullis, New Mexico Author DonBullis.biz

La Sociedad de Bandidos de Nuevo Mexico

A

native of Albuquerque, Vicente Silva, by most accounts, was pleasant and popular fellow with a respectable façade. He was married to the former Telesfora de Sandoval and the two of them adopted a child named Emma. By about 1875, Silva and his family moved to Las Vegas in San Miguel County where he operated the Imperial saloon on the town’s plaza.

In spite of Silva’s respectability, however, the Imperial saloon was anything but respectable. It was frequented by the lower caste of society; people referred to locally as vagas (probably a shortened form of vagamundos, per linguist Rubén Cobos, or vagabundos, that is, vagrants or tramps). It was from this group, that Silva began recruiting the membership of La Sociedad de Bandidos de Nuevo Mexico or the Society of Bandits of New Mexico, in about 1885. If Silva had any real success with the Society, it was that he managed to keep its existence a secret for several years. Discipline in the organization was strict.

Soon after the group was formed, all manner of crime became rampant in the region. While rustling was one of the group’s primary activities, assaults, robberies, murder and other property crimes became common in and around Las Vegas, and most of the crimes would eventually be laid at the door of Silva, the Imperial saloon, and the Sociedad de Bandidos.

The group continued its depredations for years. But, like many thieves, Silva became too greedy, and too sure of himself.

He seems to have become so arrogant that he thought he was above the law to the extent that he could do as he pleased. He overreached became a bit paranoid.

In the autumn of 1892, members of the society stole some horses from rancher José Santos Esquivel who soon learned that his animals could be found at Silva’s ranch near Monte Largo. Esquivel sent his son, Refugio, and a posse of his ranch hands to recover the horses. Not only did Refugio find his father’s horses, he drove them straight into Las Vegas and demanded an

explanation from Silva.

An embarrassed Silva quickly called a meeting of Society’s membership. While he could not himself be expected to accept any responsibility for the situation, he could, and did, blame gang member Patricio Maes.

Maes, he asserted, had tipped off the Esquivels about where the horses were hidden. A drum-head trial was held and Maes was convicted of treachery and sentenced to death. The sentence was executed on the night of October 21, 1892 when the condemned man was hanged from the Gallinas River Bridge between old Las Vegas and new town. Townspeople were greeted with the hanging body as they began their daily activities the next morning.

Rancher Esquivel, in the meantime, was able to secure an indictment against Silva and the gang leader fled Las Vegas and went into hiding near the village of Los Alamos, a dozen or so miles northeast of town (not to be confused with the more famous Los Alamos west of Santa Fe in the Jemez Mountains).

Silva became convinced that his brotherin-law, Gabriel Sandoval, who served as his bookkeeper, could no longer be trusted. In February 1893, some of his men lured San-

doval to a cemetery near West Las Vegas where Silva stabbed him to death. His body was concealed in an outhouse, the ultimate degradation.

Silva continued his criminal activities and by May of 1893, New Mexico Territorial Governor William T. Thornton had offered a $200 reward for his arrest. It was also that May when some of Silva’s men brought Telesfora to Los Alamos for a visit. Believing that she had been disloyal to him, and had hoarded some jewelry, Silva stabbed her to death. Her body was thrown into an arroyo and casually covered with dirt.

That final crime was beyond the forbearance of even the most hardened of his criminal followers. As they walked away from the scene of her internment, one of the members of the Sociedad, Jose Valdez, shot Silva in the head at close range, killing him instantly. Valdez and a few others robbed their former leader and split the proceeds before they buried him in an arroyo not far from where Telesfora rested.

Even with Silva dead, the crimes of the Society of Bandits continued for a while.

Several years later, after numerous of the outlaws had been either hanged or imprisoned, relative peace returned to Las Vegas and San Miguel County.

Foster Farms Sues Insurer

oster Farms has sued one of its insurance companies for breach of contract.

The processor is seeking declaratory judgment because the company sold Foster Farms “a liability insurance policy with antitrust coverage, but has denied any coverage obligation for three purported class action lawsuits allege antitrust claims,” according to the complaint.

Everest National Insurance Co. issued Foster Farms a policy covering the period May 7, 2019 to May 7, 2020, court documents said. “In the Policy, Everest agreed to provide broad coverage for antitrust claims,” the complaint noted. The antitrust coverage adds a $5 million limit for antitrust claims and “deletes an exclusion in the Policy for claims ‘based upon, arising out of or attributable to an actual or alleged violation of’ the antitrust laws.”

Nevertheless, Everest denied coverage, Foster Farms said. The coverage would be related to a lawsuit for alleged antitrust actions taken in the turkey market. Everest contends the turkey market issues are related to another antitrust lawsuit filed against broiler chicken processors, and therefore predates its period of coverage.

Foster Farms seeks reimbursement from Everest for 100 percent of its defense costs above the $1 million retention in the antitrust coverage, and a declaration that the exclusion asserted by Everest does not apply.

The processor also seeks damages “in an amount to be proven,” pre- and post-judgment interest against Everest; and “other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper.”

NEW MEXICO FEDERAL LANDS NEWS

by Frank Dubois

Its Dry & Another Lockdown Drought

T

he drought is officially here. Just now?

Yes, according to the mainstream media. It arrived on June 20, for it was on that date that two national publications and one regional published major articles covering the drought in the West. The Washington Post brought us “Severe Heat and Droughts the Hallmarks of a Changing West.” CNN came with “The American West is Drying Out. Things Will Get Ugly.” and the Albuquerque Journal says “We’re Sounding the Alarm.”

The Washington Post piece, while addressing west-wide issues, focuses primarily on California and Arizona.

In Lake Oroville, California, little islands of land are appearing, larger boats can no longer be removed, and the launch ramp no longer reaches the water.

As a result of a poor snowpack and early seasonal heat causing evaporation of runoff, the onset of this year’s drought happened much quicker than those previous. Only twenty percent of the expected runoff made it to reservoirs. “I’ve seen it like this before, but only at the end of summer, never this early,” says one official. “This low will be historic.”

Each drought year is different according to Stanford University’s Felicia Marcus. “This one’s come on hot and quickly. And that has created an acceleration of the problems you might otherwise see, in part because our ecosystems, our forests, our groundwater resources haven’t recovered from the last one.”

The article says that last year’s wildfires burned up 4.3 million acres in California, the largest area ever in the history of the state, and that twenty-five percent of California residents now live in “high fire risk zones.”

California farmers have been notified that both federal and state water allotments will be curtailed and that due to low water levels future electricity production is threatened. California officials are preparing residents for a summer of rolling outages.

It further says that for California, Arizona and Utah, the period from June 2020 through May of 2021 has been the driest

42

JULY 2021

ever reported.

This appears to be another year where the famed California monsoon has not happened and residents are now referring to it as the “nonsoon”.

In Arizona they are most worried about implementation of restrictions on use of the Colorado River. Based upon a compact reached years ago, Arizona farmers will be among the first to have their water allotments cut. Stephanie Smallhouse, President of the Arizona Farm Bureau Federation, says, “They’ll likely…have to fallow up to 40 percent of what was growing before.”

Smallhouse, a fifth-generation rancher, spends every daylight hour hauling water, along with her husband and son. The process, she says, is “physically exhausting.

And mentally? It’s tough. Because you just don’t know what’s going to happen.”

CNN takes a different tact, using three different maps to demonstrate the severity of the drought. They also focus on Lake Mead, which has fallen to depths not seen since it was filled during the construction in the 1930s of Hoover Dam. The entire town of St. Thomas, which the government bought and then flooded, has reappeared.

The maps show 88 percent of the West in some shade of red, while the East is unaffected and Lake Mead has fallen more than 140 feet since 2000 and sits at no more than a third of its capacity.

CNN does show how the government differentiates between “extreme drought” and “exceptional drought”. The criteria is different for each state, but take a look at the criteria they use for “exceptional drought” in California: ЇЇ Fields are left fallow; orchards are removed; vegetable yields are low; honey harvest is small Fire season is very costly; number of fires ЇЇ and area burned are extensive ЇЇ Many recreational activities are affected ЇЇ Fish rescue and relocation begins; pine beetle infestation occurs; forest mortality is high; wetlands dry up; survival of native plants and animals is low; fewer wildflowers bloom; wildlife death is widespread; algae blooms appear ЇЇ Policy change; agriculture unemployment is high, food aid is needed ЇЇ Poor air quality affects health; greenhouse gas emissions increase as hydropower production decreases; West Nile Virus outbreaks rise ЇЇ Water shortages are widespread; surface water is depleted; federal irrigation water deliveries are extremely

low; junior water rights are curtailed; water prices are extremely high; wells are dry, more and deeper wells are drilled; water quality is poor However you color it, that is an ugly picture.

The Albuquerque Journal, of course, looks at New Mexico, with a focus on the Rio Grande and Elephant Butte Dam. The dam was built from 1912-1916.

This year, farmers in the Elephant Butte Irrigation District (EBID) will only receive four inches of project water. EBID manager Gary Esslinger says that is just enough for one irrigation cycle.

“If we get lucky and monsoons come in, we could extend our season past July 1,” Esslinger said. “But right now, we may be out of water by June 25.” Their season began June 1.

The feds estimate the dam is eight to ten percent full and could drop down to one percent of capacity after the irrigation season is complete.

Climate lockdown Some are speculating we will have a Climate Lockdown in our future. On just what basis do they make this outlandish claim? They base it on an article written by an employee of the World Health Organization (WHO). Her name is Mariana Mazzucato.

She is a professor of economics at University London, but also heads something called the Council on the Economics of Health for All, a division of the WHO. Here is what she wrote: As COVID-19 spread […] governments introduced lockdowns in order to prevent a public-health emergency from spinning out of control. In the near future, the world may need to resort to lockdowns again – this time to tackle a climate emergency […] To avoid such a scenario, we must overhaul our economic structures and do capitalism differently.

Not only was the article published, it has been republished by the likes of Bill and Melinda Gates and a publication backed by George Soros. That is what has people worried.

I have a solution. Let’s Lockdown the Lockdowners. Flank’em high . . . three wraps and a hooey . . . and leave’em where they lay. If your pony spooks and drags them through the dirt a little bit, why that is okay too.

Until next time, be a nuisance to the devil and don’t forget to check that cinch.

Biden’s Prairie Chicken Fillet The feds use the Endangered Species Act to block fossil fuels. by the Editorial Board, The Wall Street Journal

W

hy did the lesser prairie chicken cross the road? Apparently to shut down oil and gas development.

Witness how the Biden Administration is reviving an Obama Administration effort to list the member of the grouse family under the Endangered Species Act to restrict energy development.

Late last month the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) proposed a regulation to list the lesser prairie chicken as either threatened or endangered, depending on the region. More than 95 percent of the lesser prairie chicken’s range falls on private property across Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma and Colorado. Its range also overlaps with the Permian Basin—the most productive oil-and-gas shale field in the U.S. Green groups have for years used the Endangered Species Act as a way to restrict land development.

In 2015 a federal judge blocked the Obama prairie chicken endangered listing because the Administration had not sufficiently considered alternatives to conserve bird habitat. Businesses and state and federal regulators had already agreed to a plan to support conservation efforts, which gave landowners flexibility to manage their property and compensated them for improving the bird’s habitat.

Oil and gas companies have since contributed more than $60 million to a conservation fund. While the plan hasn’t been perfectly executed, it seems to be working. An October 2020 study prepared for the Western Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies found that the population of lesser prairie chickens across the five states grew to an estimated 34,408 from 18,142 in 2014.

Environmental groups nonetheless sued the government in 2016 to force another listing. The Biden Administration has now agreed to re-list the bird, which could restrict energy development on up to 21 million acres of land. Businesses that aren’t participating in the conservation plan will have to conduct habitat surveys to ensure they don’t disturb the chickens and apply for FWS permits or risk prosecution and shutdown orders.

Most species occupied much more land

centuries ago than they do today. Human settlement and predators have shrunk habitats, and creating the precise conditions to restore them would be impossible. Most species listed under the Endangered Species Act haven’t been removed, and private-public conservation partnerships often do more to conserve species than government regulation.

There’s no urgent reason to list the lesser prairie chicken other than to appease green lobbyists and their desire to use every regulation possible to stop development.

Candidate Joe Biden promised that he wouldn’t ban oil and gas fracking, but his Administration plans to restrict it step by step with a regulatory onslaught, and the lesser prairie chicken listing seems to be part of the strategy.

Here’s a comment on this article by a Wall Street Journal reader:

tions of the 21 million acres in the Biden administration’s proposed land grab have potential for other mineral deposits aside from oil and gas, including rare earths and copper, critical to development of alternative energy sources. President Biden has promised to fast-track development of these critical metals. Environmental groups ref lexively f ight development of any new mine anywhere, and Mr. Biden’s prairie-chicken gift will further enable them to block production of metals vital to the new energy sources for which they cry—a situation that defies common sense.

The Cowboy Way

THE EDGE OF COMMON SENSE

by Baxter Black, BaxterBlack.com

A

good cowboy will go beyond the call of duty and even put himself in harm’s way to help a suffering beast.

Doug and Patty run a ranch in that big wide country in eastern New Mexico.

They’d received several loads of cow/calf pairs. The weather was against ‘em and the calves went to scourin’.

The cows were turned out in a big pasture. Treating the calves wasn’t easy.

The morning of the incident, their neighbor, Caleb, came to help. He was ridin’ a big mule. They trailed through the cows and spotted a good sized calf lookin’ humped up. They watched for a minute and confirmed he was, in fact, afflicted.

Doug eased up and dropped a lazy loop around his neck.

It is a strange but almost predictable occurrence that a calf, who appears to be on the edge of his last breath can suddenly

become a dynamo of jackrabbit speed and mad dog energy when suddenly caught with a rope.

Doug pulled the horn knot tight on his saddle as the calf slashed back and forth like a 200-pound marlin on the end of his line. Caleb was haulin’ back on his mule to git outta the way. Not in time. The calf went around the outside of the mule and dang near toppled him before they jumped clear.

The mule took off in high gear! Caleb was mashin’ on the brakes. You could smell ‘em burnin’ as he disappeared over a swell.

Doug kept his pony facin’ the calf till it tangled the rope in some brush.

“Quick, Patty,” Doug instructed. “Flank him and give him a Sudafed and some L.A. 200!”

Patty, who’s a good cowboy herself, dismounted, went down the rope and flanked the calf just as the calf’s mamma arrived,

registering her disapproval. She was blowin’ snot as Patty maneuvered around tryin’ to keep the calf between herself and mama.

Doug saw Caleb out of his peripheral vision, racing back to the scene. “Great,” he thought. “Help’s on the way.”

The mule was still out of control, on autopilot, so to speak. He never slowed but jumped the stretched rope like a steeple chaser. Caleb never shifted in his seat and disappeared out the other direction.

Patty had managed to give the shot and peel off the rope but the cow gave her a good roll anyway before chasing off after her darlin’ baby.

I was lookin’ at Patty while Doug was tellin’ me this story. She nodded with that resigned look I often see in ranch women’s eyes.

I said, “By gosh, Doug. Yer a heck’uva cowboy. You did all that and never got off yer horse.”

“Yup,” he said, “I was trainin’ him.

No Trespassing!

W

e are in the process of putting in a new electronic gateway to our ranch because people are too stupid to know what “Keep Out” and No Trespassing” actually mean. Many also do not understand what private property is.

The area we live in has gone from being remote to being well accessed on the weekend in just the last ten years. I’m calling it remote as we still drive 28 miles to get our mail. The road in front of our ranch used to see about three cars a day, but it now sees about 50, plus various razors and dirt bikes on the weekend.

Down the road from us are two different ranches that subdivided and sold off. I understand why they did it, but it has ruined our happy ranching community to some degree. I understand that things will change over time, but not always for the better.

We presently have a pair of gates that swing together and meet in the middle with a chain to hold them. You would think that it would keep people out. It really only keeps out the rural folks who know gate etiquette. The city slickers are too stupid to read signs or to have any respect for someone else’s property.

For example, the other day I came up over a hill after checking cattle and there in the middle of one of my cow pastures was a van with six bizarre looking city people standing around it, all on their phones. I could tell they were city folks by the way they wore their hair and trousers.

Believe me, we have Ranchers, Mexicans, Indians, Cowboys, Miners, Mennonites, but nobody in our area looks like those folks.

My cattle really had a funny look on their face, kind of like the circus had arrived. The thing is, there is no cell phone reception in our area and six city folks could not figure that out.

I asked if I could help them, and why were they were in my cow pasture? They

46

JULY 2021

explained that their GPS had led them there.

I asked them if they just blindly go where their GPS tells them to, and they said yes. I asked them which sign on my front gate could they not read?

Did they see the stop signs, the no trespassing signs, the keep out signs, or the private property signs? Yes, they saw them, but the GPS told them to go this way. I said where is GPS telling you to go next? They said up over that mountain, but they could not see a road. I asked if they thought their GPS could be wrong, and they were in utter shock that I could ask such a thing. In these folks eyes I think GPS has replaced Jesus as the way to get to the promised land.

I turned to ride away and they said wait, where do we go from here? I said, just ask your GPS. They asked where I was going and I told them to call the sheriff to get these nuts out of my pasture.

These types of instances are getting to be commonplace, and I certainly get tired of it as I am sure that you do too. Another thing I always ask these fools is when was the last time they saw me drive my vehicle on their property?

The next toughest thing to deal with on the ranch are hunters. Most of the time hunters are city guys that like to go out in the countryside to wander around and shoot things.

However, in our area the majority of hunters drive up and down the dirt road expecting to see game to shoot from their car. Of course, the deer just stay out of sight and go a little deeper into the rocks and canyons when they start seeing the hunters driving up and down the road repeatedly.

I’m just wondering if there’s a book out called, Road Hunting For Fat Guys that all these guys read? I am convinced that the weekend after hunting season ends they go over to their buddy’s garage and tell hunting stories. I am certain they all

get a beer, sit around with the garage door up and tell about all the deer they didn’t see, but brag on the 6,000 miles they drove on a dirt road when last year they only drove 5,000 miles.

The other type of hunter that gets me is the alleged polite one who calls to see if they can hunt on your land. In my book that’s pretty damn stupid because our headquarters consist of a few hundred acres, but the Forest Service land that completely surrounds us consists of about 300 square miles.

You can walk or drive about 65 miles southwest from our place and never run into another ranch and damn few fences.

Don’t you think that is where the deer might be? Then I get the other guy that calls up to ask about hunting on the ranch and offers to pay me. I always say sure, about $10,000 would be just about right. The hunter thinks this is outrageous and asks why so much.

I explain to him that is just about our tax bill each year. It sounds very fair to me. Then you get the guy that whines and cries and says that ranchers own all the land to hunt on. This guy is a few bricks short of a load, as only 16 percent of land in Arizona is privately owned. The rest of it is government land, most of which you can hunt on.

I am really excited about my new gateway as we are building it heavy enough to stop a freight train and we are putting rows of tire knives in the ground to puncture the tires of anyone who comes in or out that I don’t like. I may even put in a line of replacement tires. This will help pay for the gate. Perhaps I will even sell you a cold beer while you wait.

Ranchers used to be helpful and friendly people, but those days are over folks. Stupidity seems to be prevailing at every turn.

NEW MEXICO LIVESTOCK BOARD

Looking to the Future

Francisco Lovato NMLB Regional Supervisor is including a child in the care of an orphaned calf at the sale barn in Belen, NM. When asked about this picture he said, “I take every opportunity I can to engage the youth and show them the importance of what we do”. He enjoys having the ability to reach out to kids in the livestock industry and show them what cowboying is all about.

In another instance Special Investigator Dennis Alarid is showing a child his unit,

letting him turn on the lights and sirens and how the radio works. His hope is that our youth can identify with law enforcement officers in a positive way, it is important to him to be an exemplary role model for the community. The experience, knowledge, and excitement officers Alarid and Lovato provided for these children is priceless and something they will remember forever. The NMLB Inspectors continue shining a positive light all around the state.

hen you think about a New Mexico Livestock Inspector what comes to mind? Traffic stops, long days at the sale barn, traveling the state performing inspections, investigating lost or stolen livestock or the person you call with concerns regarding livestock. The list goes on and on for the men and women in the field as they serve and protect the integrity of New Mexico’s Livestock Industry. What people do not typically think about are the impactful moments our Inspectors have on our future.

Recently we were able to capture these special moments on camera of NMLB Inspectors going above and beyond their typical job duties to educate and encourage the youth in the agricultural industry.

Hard Work, Partnerships Bring Expansion for Bar-G Feedyard

by Katie James / Drovers

J

ohnny Trotter owner of Bar-G Feedyard in Hereford, Texas, is a busy man. Not only does he manage the day-to-day operations of the 125,000-head capacity yard and keep a crew of 120 motivated, but he also stewards the surrounding land to grow wheat and provide for further expansion, operates a trucking company for shipping livestock and feed, and a cattle financing company. But he doesn’t stop there, Trotter is also owner of a local car dealership, breeds racehorses, owns a racetrack, sits on the boards of several local banks and is a skilled team roper.

Soon, he’ll have a new accolade under his belt as a newly inducted member of the Cattle Feeders Hall of Fame, which will take place in conjunction with the NCBA Convention and Trade Show in August, a title he accepts with humility.

“It’s just who I am and what I do,” Trotter says. “I’m flattered that people voted for me.

I’m humbled and really thrilled about it. I appreciate it.”

Trotter has had a lifelong love of horses, but his journey as a cowboy and cattle feeder started with a move to Hereford, Texas. During his sophomore year in high school his family moved from Dumas to Hereford, and he had the chance to work at several different feedyards that were being built. As a senior, Trotter took an opportunity to care for cattle on wheat.

In the ’70s he had the opportunity to lease a preconditioning yard and began backgrounding cattle with several partners, which then eventually led to the purchase of the yard that is now known as Bar-G in January of 1983.

“It had been closed down for four years, and it was in pretty dilapidated shape, but we rebuilt the mill, and we rebuilt the yard and got going with a 40,000 capacity,” he says.

He and Shirley Garrison then put a group of businesspeople together that ran cattle on wheat that would be able to put cattle into the feedyard, including Stanley and David Schaeffer, Harvey Garrison, Eddie and J.W. Sutton and Roy Bryan.

From there, the growth began. Trotter and his partners expanded the yard until it

50

JULY 2021

could hold 85,000 head. In 2000 they bought the nearby 7X yard which increased their capacity to the 125,000 it stands at today.

“Shirley Garrison and I were partners for years, and we formed a cattle company together, Bar-G Cattle Company, and that’s what we called the little yard,” Trotter says.

“We had a good reputation for keeping calves alive and we had a pretty good following over there for starting cattle on wheat and then bringing them back and growing them.”

That hard work and reputation fueled long-term relationships with packers and crew alike. Trotter has people he’s partnered with or had working for him who have been there for over 35 years.

“I’ve had guys who are retiring now that have been with me over 35 years,” he says.

“The people are the main thing, whether it be the customers who fed cattle with us, our guys that partnered with me and believed in me and believed in this company. The ownership of the company has been the same ownership until around the turn of the century, I started buying those guys out.”

“My right-hand man, Kevin Bunch, has been with me since the beginning,” he continues. “People comment about how much

we’re alike, but we’ve grown together for almost 40 years now. It’s all about the people. Anytime you hear me say anything, it’s going to be praising the people that have crossed my path, and I don’t feel like that’s an accident, it’s part of God’s plan.”

Investing in technology and adopting new practices for efficiency’s sake has also helped keep Bar-G going. Trotter and his team were one of the first to endorse a turnkey accounting system for feedyards and helped develop its programs.

In addition to improvements in feed tracking and management, shifting from paper feed cards to wirelessly transmitted data coming off the feed truck, Trotter’s crew was one of the first in the industry to ask Temple for a customizable tag.

“We asked for a tag we could print the lot number on, that had the individual number on each tag,” he says. “And that way we color coded the tags, and we had individual tags 25 years ago. We could run a medicine check on cattle we were going to ship and know we weren’t shipping something we shouldn’t. And now, that’s the deal for everybody. I take a little pride thinking that I had something to do with facilitating that.”

Looking at long-term goals for Bar-G, Trotter hopes the packing industry can grow to the point that there’s sustainability, not only for his business, but all operations.

“I would hope that we’ve built an empire here that can be, maybe not under my direction and leadership, but can be sustainable for the next 25 to 30 years,” he says.

“I like to think of myself as a progressive, forward-thinking guy, and that’s the reason we put all this farmland together, for the water, because it became obvious to me early on that that would be a limiting factor.”

“We’ve got a relatively good relationship with the packing industry and don’t have any more trouble than a lot of people in marketing the numbers we need to,” he says. “At times it’s difficult, but I hope this enterprise has been constructed in a way that it can be a continuing business for the next 25 to 30 years.”

To those hoping to step into cattle feeding, Trotter’s advice boils down to working hard and being willing to give a helping hand.

“I can’t emphasize enough how far in life a good work ethic will get you,” he says. “As well as being a team player. There’s no limit to what you can achieve when it doesn’t matter who gets the credit. You’ll get a lot further when everyone is playing offense.”

SPRING CLEANING! Do you ever think about going through all your paperwork and files to make sure that when it’s your time to pass, you and your family are prepared?

With long term care costs rising, it might be time to consider: Do I want my kids to take care of me, or do I want to spare them the trouble?

It’s hard enough losing a parent without knowing if this is how they wanted to handle their affairs with nothing planned or in writing.

Do you have a will or trust? Or money set aside for unforseen expenses?

Give us a call so we can assist you with your planning needs.

Bobbie Neal-Little

H

eaven’s porch light came on the evening of June 2nd and our sweet Bobbie Jeanne was called on home.

Whether you knew her as Bobbie Ball, Neal, or Little; there’s no doubt you knew her as a friend.

She was a lifelong steward and citizen of Silver City born in the firehouse which is now known as the Silver City Museum on Flag Day, 1935. She served Grant County as a real estate broker for over 25 years where her trademark NEAL Real Estate stop signs

could be seen from White Signal to Bayard.

Bobbie served on the board of the Southwest Horsemen’s Association, she sat on the board and was a diligent volunteer of the Silver City Museum, was an active member of the Copper CowBelles, as well as an active member, trustee, and Sunday school teacher at First United Methodist Church. Bobbie was rarely seen without a golden smile on her face and there wasn’t a person alive who was unwelcome in her home.

When you get up there yourself, you’ll

undoubtedly find Bobbie alongside her parents Violet & Rowland Ball, welcoming newcomers with coffee and a place to sit and visit while her first husband, Meredith Neal and his Bootheel boys play a tune.

Don’t be surprised if you also find yourself on the receiving end of a firm friendly handshake and a smile from Howard Little, Bobbie’s second husband. Be sure to say hello and give them a hug from all of us down here.

When not with the Good Lord discussing a long overdue increase of annual precipitation in Grant County, Bobbie will be keeping an eye on so many of us from up above. Routinely checking in on her sister Dona Irwin. Carefully watching over her son Lyn, his wife Kim, and her youngest grandson Seth. She’ll certainly be sending love and blessings to her daughter Kim Allen, granddaughter Aubri Studdard, granddaughter in-law Adriana Allen, great granddaughters Meredith and Brooklyn Allen. In the glow of her halo, she’ll also be shaking a stern finger at Steve, Wacey, Justin, Ky, Coleman, and Hollis while she blows kisses to Calloway, her newest great grandson. In her angelic voice, she’ll whisper prayers of hope and love to Gayle and John Jones, Paula Jenkins, Vannetta and Gary Perry, Rayna Aiken, Randy and Dulcy Little; as she provides heavenly guidance to her lovely grandchildren; Brad and Lauren Saulsberry, Eric, Keith, and Kimberly Jones; Jenna, Justin, Jace, and Jamie Jenkins, Galen, Dustin, and Brett Perry, Gayle and Will Holden, Jonathan, Christy, Benjamin, Micah, AnnaLee and Jesse Little.

Bennett Thurmond Easterling March 10-1934 – June 1, 2021

B

ennett Thurmond Easterling, ‘Buzz’, physically ‘gave out’ on June 1, 2021, at his townhome in Albuquerque at the age of 87. He was ‘rode hard and put up wet’ but a tough buzzard through the challenges, as a Lea County and then Catron County cowboy and rancher.

Buzz was predeceased by his mother, Tommie Ross Calley; father, Henry Thurmond Easterling; also, stepfathers, Frank Knight and L.J. Calley; brother, Ross Eugene

154

JULY 2021

Easterling; niece, Tom Ross Easterling; aunt, Bess (and uncle, Orville Malmstrom); aunt, Ellen Kate (and Malcolm Madera); his polo teammates, Louis Nalda, Mickey Samuell (Carolyn), and Jack Dean.

Buzzy is survived by his cousins, Ginger DuPont of New Orleans, Louisiana; Ellen Madera Hinson (Rob), New Braunfels, Texas; Kitty Madera, Montana; he will forever and ever be adored by them; his nephew, Ross Easterling (Elizabeth); and niece, Elizabeth ’Betsy’ Rectenwald and her children, Henry and Erin cherish their time spent with Uncle Buzz and Grandy during the beautiful summertime at El Caso.

Papa Buzz is also survived by his ranch crew: daughter, Susan (Ken) Swaim, Elephant Butte, New Mexco, and their children, KC, West Point, MS and Callie Jo, College Station, Texas; son, Lance (Jayne) Easterling, Columbus, Texas and their son, Cole Easterling, Ft. Worth, Texas. They were enriched with the love of horses and cattle, hunting and fishing, gardening, cooking, Spanish guitar music and Old Cowboy Ballads sung by their dad and grandpa. He loved his family and extended family and they loved him. His cheerful smile, generous spirit and crazy giggle was heartwarming to all.

He was born in Pecos, TX on March 10, 1934, in the closest hospital (a sanitarium), but grew up with the rattlesnakes, tumbleweeds and caliche rocks in Jal and Carlsbad, NM and on the family’s Battleaxe ranch. He grew up eating hard-tack biscuits made by his cowboy friend Light Horse. He and his brother, Ross entered high school at New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI) during the wartime when they had Calvary and Polo – a sport that trained the soldiers in horsemanship and warfare tactics. He made lifelong friendships with his teammates, and they competed and won National Intercollegiate Polo Championships in ’52 and ‘54 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Polo was eventually phased out ending quite an impressive era at NMMI. Buzz was the class of ’54 and then went to Oklahoma University to study geology. He continued to play polo while in college and entered the Army and was given the honor of caring for the military horses to include Riderless Horses of the fallen soldiers. After two years of duty, he was called to help his widowed mother at El Caso Ranch in Quemado, New Mexico.

Eventually, he would entice a West Texas ranch girl/debutante (Suzanne Sears) from Sweetwater to live in the mountains of New Mexico and become his wife. She was a loving partner, mother of his children, and

together they formed many friendships and made wonderful memories before parting ways. He continued to be influential in the Border Circuit Polo with his former teammates and The Pie Town Javelinas hosting teams from the hot areas of the southwest for summer polo in the mountains. He later started his own club, El Caso Polo and Equestrian Center which continues to be a gathering place for old and young, international, and local, cowboys and Indians to challenge each other’s skill on the (battle) field.

His great joy was to help young people with their horsemanship skills and to introduce them to polo, ranch work and hard work. “Hurry up, your burnin’ daylight!” His Quemado polo protégé’s Pete Chavez, John and Adren Nance, Travis Simpson, B.J. Mendoza and Robert Bruton will be Honorary Pallbearers as they represent Buzz’s passion for bringing youth into polo and teaching them many skills to carry along into their lives. Chuck Rogers, Summers Reid, James Dobbins, and Geronimo Garcia will be remembered as being loyal Top Hands to make ‘the mare go’ for Buzz and our family; always contributing greatly to the crew. Our family would also like to thank Cathy Carrejo for her loving care of our dad in his later years.

Buzz lived a life which encompassed many sectors of business and friendships around New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona. His ranching, polo, real estate, and oil/gas business kept him in the game and in touch with his friends and family until he drew his last breath. He loved New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI) and enjoyed hosting and supporting the Alumni Trail Rides; Silver Taps will be heard at this year’s trail ride for this Top Hand rider.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the charity of your choice, but these were special to Buzz: Tommie Calley Scholarship at www.nmmifoundation.com, USPA Polo Training Foundation www.polotrainingfoundation.org, and Quemado Lake Estates’ Scholarship for Quemado High School Seniors 70 Elk View Circle H.C. 60, Box 135 Quemado Lake, NM 87829.

Condolences for the family, stories, music, and pictures may be offered online at elcasopolo@gmail.com. The family will be hosting a Buzz Easterling Memorial Polo Tournament and Bar-B- Que when it rains.

Thomas Arlie Huey

November 27 1935 – June 8, 2021

T

homas Arlie Huey was born in Gran Quivera, New Mexico on November 27, 1935 to Kenneth and Gertrude Huey.

He graduated from Capitan High School and was drafted into the Army in 1958 during the Korean War. He passed away on June 8, 2021 at the age of 85.

In 1960, he married Susan Ann Penix.

They worked at the ranch until 1963. They started the Thomas A. Huey Mfg. Co. He was very proud of the business starting from nothing to building almost 400 custom built trailers along with steel sales and fabrication. His three sons, Ricky, Nicky and Micky became part of the company and continues to be a family business in Corona, New Mexico.

He is preceded in death by his parents and his son, Micky. His brothers Jerry and Billy Huey, and his sisters Delores McInnes and Glenda Perry.

He is survived by his wife, Susan of 60 years and his sons Ricky and Nicky. Seven grandchildren and one great grandson.

Henry Grant Kinzer

July 22, 1937 – June 6, 2021

G

rant Kinzer was a beloved father, teacher, innovative researcher, professor, mentor, successful sculptor, passionate rancher, and an authentic leader who conducted himself in an honorable and fearless manner that provided an excellent example by which life should be lived.

On June 6, 2021, after 83 years of life, Grant Kinzer passed away. He was preceded in death by his wife, Cathy Jeanne StellKinzer, who passed away in 2016. He is survived by his companion Carol Sutherland, five siblings, his five children Jeff Kinzer, Kathrin Kinzer-Ellington, Kristal Howell, Kacie Gerhardt, and Kye Kinzer, and ten grandchildren.

Grant Kinzer was born on July 22, 1937, in Grandfield, Oklahoma. He grew up in a farming family in southwest Oklahoma with his parents Henry Evans Kinzer and Clara Marie Kinzer, and his five younger siblings.

He received his Bachelors of Science in Entomology from Oklahoma State University (OSU) in 1959, his Master of Science in Medical Entomology from OSU in 1960, and his PhD in Medical Entomology from OSU in 1962. He then served in the Army as a Medical Entomologist in the Medical Services Corps in Maryland. He was honorably discharged from the Army Reserves at the rank of Captain in 1968.

JULY 2021

In the fall of 1964, he moved his family of four to Las Cruces, NM, to take a job as a professor of Entomology at New Mexico State University (NMSU).

As a Professor in the Botany and Entomology Department, in addition to teaching, he also conducted basic and applied research to understand insectcaused damage in specific areas within Forest Entomology and Livestock and Wildlife Entomology. In 1972, he received the College of Agriculture’s award for outstanding research. His accomplishments in Livestock and Wildlife Entomology brought him and NMSU national recognition. Early Wildlife Entomology efforts include the evaluation of disease transmission by horse flies and deer flies to elk, which at the time had a negative impact on New Mexico’s elk population. Specific milestone contributions to NMSU include his work with industry leaders to facilitate the funding and construction of the Livestock Insect Research Facility at NMSU. This facility again brought national recognition to him and NMSU, as it provided the means to research the negative economic impacts of parasitic insects on cattle production. Additionally, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, he conducted research to understand the impact and potential control of the scabies infestation that was threatening the Desert Bighorn Sheep herd on the San Andres Mountains.

In 1986, he became the Department Head of the Entomology, Plant Pathology, and Weed Science Department within the College of Agriculture and served in that position until 2007. During his tenure, he launched the Department’s graduate level Master of Science program in Agricultural Biology. After leaving the position as Department Head, he served in the Center for Animal Health and Food Safety until his retirement from NMSU in 2009. During his time at NMSU, he positively influenced and mentored hundreds of undergraduate and graduate students.

In addition to his career at NMSU, Grant Kinzer was a successful western bronze sculptor. One example of his success in this endeavor is the purchase of one of his pieces of sculpture by John Wayne. Another example is his sculpture titled the Joy of Learning, which was commissioned by NMSU in 1988 to commemorate its Centennial, and is located just north of the Branson Library on the NMSU campus.

In the later 30 years of his life, he was a progressive rancher on his ranch near Carrizozo, New Mexico. During his ownership,

156

JULY 2021

he made continual physical improvements to the infrastructure of the ranch. These improvements enabled him to optimize environmental stewardship in the management of the ranch, an approach about which he was adamant. He was a passionate and active rancher until the end of his life.

He was gathering cattle 39 days before his passing.

Capital gains taxes are due when a person sells an asset that appreciated in value since it was purchased. For example, if a person purchased land worth $500/acre and later sell it for $1,200/acre, capital gains taxes would be owed on the $700 increase in value. Current law allows for a step up in basis in certain situations, which may decrease the capital gains tax liability. For example, assume a person purchased land worth $500/acre. When that person died, the land was worth $900/acre and it was given to the person’s child in the will. In this situation, the stepped up basis would allow the cost basis to be changed from the $500

The AFPC maintains a database of 94 representative farms located in 30 states around the country. These representative farms have been used for over 30 years in policy analysis. When the AFPC conducted simulations using these 94 farms to determine the impact of the STEP Act and the 99.5 Percent Act on these farms. Specifically, AFPC looked at the impact on generational transfer under the STEP Act, under the 99.5 Percent Act, and under both the STEP Act and the 99.5 Percent Act. A brief summary of the results shows that under current tax law, only 2 of the 94 representative farms would face estate or capital gains tax liability pursuant to a generational transfer. Under the 99.5 Percent Act, 41 of the 92 representative farms would be impacted with average additional tax liability of $2.17 million per farm. Under the STEP Act, 92 of the 94 farms would be impacted, with an additional tax liability averaging $726,104 per farm. Finally, if both the STEP and 99.5 Percent Act were implemented, 92 of the 94 representative farms would be impacted with additional tax liabilities of $1.43 million per farm.

he Agricultural and Food Policy Center at Texas A&M University recently released a report looking at the likely impacts of proposed changes to the estate and capital gains taxes. [View Report: https://afpc.tamu.edu/research/publications/files/708/RR-21-01.pdf] Specifically, the report analyzed the impact that changes to the lifetime exclusion for estate taxes and the elimination of the stepped up basis for capital gains taxes would have on the AFPC’s 94 representative farms. The results were clear in showing that for the representative farms, the proposed policy changes would greatly increase tax liability.

First, all agricultural operations should have an estate and transition plan in place to ensure the success of the operation when transferred to the next generation. As part of this plan, potential tax liabilities should be considered and tools to help alleviate or minimize these liabilities should be utilized when necessary. Do not wait until the transition happens to formulate a plan!

Second, proposed tax law changes certainly have the potential to impact agricultural operations. All rural landowners and agricultural operations should keep a close eye on any changes and be prepared to make necessary changes to their estate and transition plans.

Democratic N.M. State Lawmakers Applaud Lease Freeze

TIRE WATER TROUGHS

by Heather Richards, E&E News reporter

N

early a quarter of the New Mexico Legislature’s members say President Biden’s controversial moratorium on oil and gas leasing could be an economic boon to the state and are pressing the White House for changes like hiking royalties.

In a letter to the president on June 8, 2021, 24 Democratic lawmakers from the Land of Enchantment said reliance on oil and gas revenue has created a feast or famine budgeting cycle that weakens funding for health and education programs in their state. They support a managed transition away from drilling dependency and modernization of the federal oil and gas program like increasing royalty rates.

“While we recognize the significant contributions the oil and gas industry has made to New Mexico, we believe that our state’s long-term fiscal health can benefit from this federal pause and review,” they wrote.

Biden committed to a potential overhaul of the federal oil and gas program shortly after taking office and ordered a freeze on the sale of new oil and gas drilling rights while Interior conducts its review.

Democratic-controlled New Mexico has often been the outlier, despite being the largest producer of onshore federal oil. Still, Democratic Senators Martin Heinrich and Ben Ray Luján have pressed the Biden administration to swiftly complete its programmatic review, but said they support reforms and a managed transition away from fossil fuel development (E&E Daily, May 13).

The oil- and gas-reliant state is particularly vulnerable to federal policy changes, with one out of every two oil and gas wells tapping the U.S. government’s store of fossil fuels.

The Biden administration is expected to release an interim report on its oil and gas program review in the coming weeks. It is unclear how long the full review will take or what reforms the White House will undertake.

Smithfield to Pay $83 Million to Settle Pork pricefixing claims

by Tom Johnston, meatingplac.com

REAL ESTATE GUIDE

S

mithfield Foods said it has agreed to pay $83 million to settle litigation accusing pork producers of conspiring to limit pork supply in order to increase prices and profits.

Subject to the approval of Chief Judge John Tunheim of the U.S. District Court of Minnesota, the settlement would resolve claims by direct pork purchasers like distributors and grocers that filed suit in the summer of 2018 claiming Smithfield and several other companies had been fixing prices since 2009.

Keira Lombardo, Smithfield’s chief administrative officer, said in an emailed statement, “While we deny any liability in these cases and believe that our conduct has always been lawful, we decided that it was in the best interests of the company to negotiate a settlement at this time. This settlement

eliminates a substantial portion of our exposure in the antitrust litigation for an amount that we believe is in the best interests of our company, as well as our employees, customers and consumers.

It significantly reduces the distraction, expense, exposure and inconvenience of protracted litigation, and it allows us to focus on executing the long-term strategy of our business.”

The litigation also named as defendants Clemens Food Group, Hormel Foods Corp., Indiana Packers Corp., JBS USA, Seaboard Foods, Triumph Foods and Tyson Foods Inc. Smithfield and those companies also are defendants in related litigation filed in the same court by indirect pork purchasers, such as restaurants and delis.

JBS USA has reached settlements with both direct and indirect pork purchasers in the litigation.

Litigation filed in federal court in Chicago levies similar price-fixing accusations at major broiler companies.

Several collectively have paid out hundreds of millions in settlements, and some executives are facing prison time.

In Brazil, Eating Beef Has Become a Luxury

by Susan Kelly , meatingplace.com

B

razil is the largest producer and exporter of beef, but soaring prices for the protein have put it beyond reach for thousands of Brazilians, who are grappling with a prolonged economic recession and high unemployment, according to media reports.

The price of beef in the country has jumped 38 percent over the past year, causing many middle- and lower-income Brazilians to change eating habits in favor of more eggs, chicken and pork, according to a report in La Prensa Latina.

Beef consumption in Brazil, which has declined steadily since 2014, dropped four percent in the first four months of 2021 alone as the country’s economic crisis, fueled by the pandemic, worsened, the publication said. At the same time, egg production reached a record high in the first quarter, as did slaughter numbers for poultry and pigs.

Brazil is also exporting more beef to the United States, with January-to-May shipments up 165.6 percent to 33,800, according to figures from the trade group Abiec reported by Reuters. The increase in exports to the U.S. comes as Chinese importers are buying more U.S. beef and less from Australia.

Brazil is facing one of the worst economic recessions in its history, with millions unemployed, tens of thousands of small businesses closing, and more than half of the population without full access to food last year, according to a recent report by CNN, which said that COVID-19 deaths and case rates in the country are slowly rising again.

New Mexico Ranchers Sue State Game & Fish Department Over Elk Herds

by Algernon D’Ammassa, Las Cruces Sun-News

I

n May 2021 a group of eight ranchers filed suit against the New Mexico Department of Game & Fish (NMDGF) in New Mexico’s 7th Judicial District. The lead plaintiff, Kalvin “Zeno” Kiehne, said that eight more had committed to joining the litigation.

The NMDGF declined to comment on the pending lawsuit.

“The elk have just destroyed everything,” Kiehne said, “and they blame it all on the cattle.”

elk had trampled wire fencing and feasted on 10-year-old cherry trees, stunting their growth.

Another orchard he had completely fenced off using posts fashioned from cedar trees fared much better, with apple, pear and peach trees of the same age thriving.

The land on the other side of the fence looked bare, the grasses completely grazed by elk, Parnell said.

Both men also work as educators, Parnell remarking that he wasn’t deriving sufficient income from ranching in the first place, and that new fencing wire cost him $500 per roll.

One way ranchers recoup losses from elk damage is through New Mexico’s Elk Private Lands Use System, or EPLUS. According to the NMDGF, the program is meant to acknowledge “the important benefits that private lands make to the elk populations and hunting opportunities in New Mexico.”

The program takes a portion of “draws” in a lottery for elk hunting licenses and distributes them to private landowners who can then sell the “tags” to hunters in a market where they can fetch $15,000 or more.

Eligibility is predicated on owners providing beneficial features for elk, such as tree cover and water. Subsequent licenses are distributed in a public lottery.

‘I don’t believe it’s a draw at all’ But Kiehne and his fellow plaintiffs say they rarely get the early draws for landowners that would assure them a revenue stream needed to accommodate losses and repairs from encroaching herds.

Moreover, Kiehne and Parnell believe that is not by chance.

“I don’t believe it’s a draw at all,” Parnell said. “I don’t think there’s any luck involved.”

Both men allege that political connections and friendships influence who gets elk tags, and Kiehne said poor management of state trust and federal lands have driven elk to private lands — a central claim in the lawsuit.

In early June the NMDGF informed Kiehne he had drawn a valuable tag permitting the harvest of an elk bull via bow hunting. He said it was the first he had drawn in 16 years, though he acknowledged he had been temporarily suspended from EPLUS in the past for an unauthorized kill.

Parnell said in 10 years ranching this land, he drew a tag once, in 2016, for an elk cow.

It sold for $800.
