- “It’s a 24 hours a day, seven days a week deal. These cattle don’t understand the days of the week or the viruses people might have.”
Folks who care for livestock can surely relate to that statement made by Johnny Trotter, General Manager and President of Bar-G Feedyard in Hereford, Texas.
We hopped in the pickup with Trotter to learn more about the role that feedyards play in the beef industry and, boy, did we learn a lot. May is National Beef Month and we tip our hats to all those who help bring beef to our grocery stores and dinner tables - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
I went to school with this guy! Came across it by accident. Nice to see him again.
Thank you for the information

Ranchers and cowboys the best in the world
Wrong, they are racist .especially in Hereford

They produce 200 thousand a year. We slaughter 650 thousand a week. In the U.S. that should give you some prospective as to how much beef we consume
Sir your a good man to take care of all them cattle
He’s the owner of the feedyard lol
Reed Flake sent me over, great video ! Fenders feed city's, God bless and stay safe. Flake out.
What a dynamic set of questions??
He probably doesn't remember me my uncle used to work there I'd go ride pins with him on the weekends sometimes
Great video! Love seeing it!
I’d love to meet you some day! Wealth of knowledge & willing to share it. That’s rare these days. Once this virus is sorted I want to head over there & visit some feedyards. Aussie Cowgirl 🤠🐴
Your fascist gov will never let you out
At 5:18, that white cow was like, "Oh crap! He just pointed at me!"
First and foremost, this video was top notch. It is so neat to see what that goes into producing our beef after it leaves the cow calf operations. People like Mr Trotter and his team are to be applauded for their efforts. Finally, and this is to the naysayers, where’s all the antibiotic feed the cattle eat everyday? I understand sick cattle in feed lots get it, but I’m sure there are not that many sick cattle...
Angus is Angus probably why Australia and New Zealand produce the finest 😉😊awesome video
computer monitored feeding. the technology is amazing.
Are you re-implanting. If so at how many days and what is your policy on withdrawal time before slaughter.
I was just looking at Hereford on Google maps, did it get hit by a tornado?
So.. if the horses 'turn sour' from the monotony of a feed lot system of ranching...how is this the best way to keep cattle until processing?
That is a smart man. Reminds me of my Uncle Pete Stoddard
Hahaha I sell then angus charolai 😂😂😂🤣 well I sell them to basically feedlots
If ya wanna be a cowboy or if ya wanna make a good broke cow pony the feed yard is where it happens💪
Gotta watch em gettin sour on ya too😉
Hey I got an own son outta dash for cash big ol black stud pony blind n one eye but ol son let me tell ya he will part ur hair back 🤣🤣 Ol heifers if there ol heads are a hangin and their eye is cloudy that’s usually a big red flag they don’t feel good👍 y’all picked one of the best in the biz to learn from they don’t make em like ol John T he is a SUPER PUNCHER NO DOUBT💪
Hello sir, can you use a truck driver? I would love to work with you.
Do you know how to do feedyard stuff?
Frank Lee I can learn..
One of the rudest men I've ever met and by far the most narcissistic guy I've ever been around. I love beef but this guy needs to find some humility at the end of his life
🐮🇺🇸😎 MAGA 2020
I want job
No shade, didn’t see any water
They have acces for water they didn’t show in video
Something people that aren't in the industry just can't seem to understand is a stocker/feeder that isn't happy isn't growing at their maximum gain rate, so yes they have clean water at all times and temperature control systems in place like every other profitable lot
Or grass.
@@clivethomas7823 Every element big element of feed is grass or grass seed except Cotton bur is for digestion, alfalfa for protein
This is so wrong. The cattle deserve a better life than living in dirt.
its the best way to finish cattle off. end of the day they all get their heads cut off.
@@nisu9238 "best way" yousay.. "what the nutritionsist tells us to feed them" the rancher says. I think the "best way" would be planed grazing. Binding carbon. Building topsoil, making the land better after caddle is introduced. AND producing a healtier AND an actually natural final product and meat. Ofcourse its efficient and produces best amount of product, and proffit. This is not sustainable nor optimal. But this rancher is perhaps atleast following rules and regulation im not bashing this particular dude, but the technique.
neither one of you has the slightest clue what your talking about... not the slightest.
@@johnbeavers6497 I've worked on many feedlot in Australia these two have probably never seen one irl before they don't know in the slightest 😂 they are just doing what they do in the wild eating shitting drinking and fucking and happy as Larry about it
@@D3vilman95 I fertilize my farm with the manure from feedlots. nothing better to grow crops. There is no enough pasture to produce this much beef. The manure is contained to go to farm land. On pasture much of the manures carbon is lost or goes to rivers from water loss from cattle compaction of soil.
This is awful, yeah you have to take cows to the vet to be treated , after standing in manure and urine, being feed genetically modified corn an grain.
They clean those pens multiple times a week they aren’t just full of manure and urine and they feed them the best food for the cattle. So try again
