In this episode, we dive into one of the most destructive livestock threats you hope you never see—the New World Screwworm. Learn what it is, how to spot early signs, and what New Mexico producers can do to stay prepared. Joining us is Dr. Marcy Ward, Livestock Specialist with NMSU’s College of Agricultural, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences, who breaks down the biology, the risks, and the real-world steps every rancher should know to protect their herd.

This episode focuses on daily care for show cattle during the spring and summer. Ty Bays is featured on this episode to share his insights on how-to prepare show cattle for the show ring.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. John Wenzel, NMSU Cooperative Extension Veterinarian to talk about the use of antimicrobials and hormones in beef. This is a very educational episode that sets the record straight about the usage of antibiotics and hormones in beef.

There are so many myths and lies out there about turkeys, how they are raised, hormones, steroids etc. I get to the truth on how they are raised, what they are fed as well as other helpful information this thanksgiving season.
