Ranchers Applaud U.S. Senate's Confirmation of Bernhardt As Deputy Secretary of Interior

Ethan Lane, the National Cattlemen's Beef Association's Executive Director, Federal Lands, and Executive Director of the Public Lands Council today released the following statement in response to the U.S. Senate's confirmation of David Bernhardt to be Deputy Secretary of the Interior:

 

"One of any Administration's most important jobs is to staff key positions with knowledgeable, experienced, and top-notch personnel, and those words describe David Bernhardt perfectly. The Administration deserves credit for nominating him, the Senate deserves credit for confirming him, and America's ranchers can't wait to start working with him to become even better stewards of our nation's public and private lands.

 

"Hopefully the White House and Senate will be able to build on this momentum to fill many more vacant senior administration offices in the near future."

Video: Selling Rams & Helping New Farmers Begin

It’s shipping day again at Ewetopia Farms as we sell another Suffolk yearling ram! In today’s episode, we load one of our Suffolk rams onto the trailer as he heads off to his new farm to sire the next generation of lambs.

This particular customer has been buying our rams for over eight years, trusting Ewetopia genetics for their gentle temperaments, strong builds, and proven performance. Back home, we get busy looking after the flock that’s staying behind. With the weather turning wet and chilly, it’s time to put down fresh, clean bedding to keep everyone cozy and comfortable for the season ahead. Later, we welcome a wonderful new family who’s just starting out in sheep farming!

They’ve chosen some of our Suffolk ewe lambs to begin their flock — and we couldn’t be happier to help them take their first steps into raising sheep. Stay tuned for a follow-up episode when we help deliver and settle their new flock at their farm.
