More Money Doesn't Mean Easy Money: Inside Today's Trucking & Cattle Business

Send us a text or leave a voicemail - we’d love to hear from you!This week Aly & Smoke catch you up on what's been happening around Behrens & Co. We kick off this episode with a trip down memory lane, sharing some insights to how Smoke got here, including the Show Pony (could pass as a show truck) and White Lightning (definitely not a show truck). From there, we shift into what's happening in our businesses across the livestock industry. We discuss how trucking has been so far this summer, how Smoke is keeping trucks moving despite recent and upcoming packing plant closures, and what those changes mean for livestock transportation and livestock producers alike. We also touch on video sale season, sharing what we're seeing in feeder cattle numbers, today's prices, and our two cents on buying cattle in this market. We wrap things up with recent mishaps we've had selling cattle. Whether you're hauling livestock, buying cattle, feeding cattle, or just trying to keep up with what's happening in rural America, we hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at life in our businesses. As always, not every day can be a good one, but there's never a shortage of stories.
