From the Pasture with Hired Hand
Balancing life as a livestock breeder is hard work. Technological advances can help but also be nerve-racking.

If you’re passionate about registered livestock, trying to start a breeding program of your own, interested in new herd marketing technologies, or just want to hear some great ranching advice then this is the podcast for you! Molly and Jaymie even share some comical stories about their experiences in the technology and ag sector over the past 15 years. Tune in!
