“There is always going to be a little bit of give and take there as far as what the appropriate role is for the federal government and how we make sure to protect our producers’ interest, protect their data privacy, ensure they’re not baring the cost of something like this, and ensure that these federal regulations aren’t impeding the speed of commerce.”   After much discussion among cattle producers and industry groups, APHIS has issued its final rule on traceability and will now require electronic ID tags. A move USDA says will better help them respond to foreign animal diseases.   National Cattlemen’s Beef Association’s Ethan Lane spoke with RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender on highlights from the final rule, if this is “government overreach”, and how they are helping reduce the cost of implementation. #eartags #aphis #usda #cattleproducers #agnews #ranchernews #ranchlife #farmlife #security #privacyconcerns #traceability #transparency #fyp #agtok

“Subverting the authority of Congress is not the way to do it”   A controversial proposal by the Bureau of Land Management has now become official. The move puts conservation on equal footing with grazing, affecting 245 million acres of mostly western land, and it is causing some serious concerns among the ranching community.   Executive Director of the Public Lands Council, Kaitlynn Glover spoke with RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender on what the rule entails, the impact on producers, and what can be done to revise the rule moving forward. #publicland #bureauoflandmanagement #blm #ranchers #thankarancher #agnews #conservation #fyp

Happy #NationalAgDay! For 40 years, this image has been found in countless homes, cabins, barns, and farm equipment sheds and machine shops. It is considered by many as the most iconic poster in the world, especially in agriculture. The “You Been Farming Long?” poster is simple in its imagery and text, yet, it speaks volumes in its portrayal of rural life and the occupation of the farmer. Many have wondered where it came from, who the two twins are, and why it seems to be everywhere. Link in bio for full story! #beenfarminglong #thankafarmer #thankarancher #fyp #farmtok
