What is the key to becoming a more regenerative ranch? How do we increase the effectiveness of our management of the Land, Animals, Money, and People that have been entrusted to us? The Working Cows podcast exists to glorify God by providing farmers and ranchers a platform to discuss and share best practices for increasing soil health, profitability, stockmanship and leadership ability. Each week host, Clay Conry, will talk to leaders in the industry who have made the regenerative shift in their business so that their ranches are more profitable from an economic and ecologic perspective. They will discuss grazing, Holistic Management, herd health, low-stress stockmanship, leadership, and of course putting your cows to work for you.

Great podcast with Burke awesome real world no nonsense ranching. Really enjoyed hearing his strategies. Been doing those very similar practices in Florida. So many folks get stuck working for their cows. Cows need to work for you. Thanks great podcast.

Juice isn’t worth the squeeze

I’ve listened to 30-40 episodes and I’ve learned about 2 things. Very dry not much information

Just found this podcast

I just found this podcast and it is diverse and interesting. I am in ag and have my own small ranch. I loved the episode with Dylan as I have a working 7 month old BC. His insight and stories were thought provoking. Keep up the good work!

Renewed my enthusiasm for grazing

I really love this podcast. I recently started listening to it while I work as a farm fence contractor. I started with episode 203 I believe and going down the list am now at 152. Clay has great guests. I can’t get enough of Steve Campbell. Dallas Mount, and Wally Olson. They have been my favorites. Thanks again, for making my day so enjoyable.

Thank you God bless . Justin S

Dani_55

Great episode!

I really enjoyed episode 124. I have been thinking about grazing annuals to break up my corn/bean rotation. This episode had lots of great info on that topic. This is the best cattle podcast I’ve came across. Well done.

Life changing content

This podcast has completely changed the way I raise my cattle. Without it I don’t think I would have much hope for success. The guests and their ideas that are presented here are amazing.

More David Kleinschmidt!

I’m a Wildlife Biologist who loves to plant diverse, cocktail blends (cover crops). As a deer guy who is interested in becoming a “cow boy”, I want to hear more about cattle and how to use them as a tool to regenerate soil health. David is the future of successful and profitable farming and ranching.

Superb

I’m a second-generation rancher’s wife with three small kids and can’t turn this podcast off. The episodes discussing business structure, finance & economics, succession, principles, vision, and faith/family/work-life-balance really hit home for me and have literally moved me to tears. I even find the more operational topics interesting like increasing stocking rate, grazing, etc interesting! He does a great job making ranch-related topics relatable even to those not doing daily operations. Great stuff.

Really impressed

THE BEST AG PODCAST. Clay is a brilliant interviewer I appreciate his questions
inilegnam

Great content minus evangelizing

Came for the Nicole Masters episode and had a listen through the back catalog to find all kinds of great interviews. However, I could do without the blatant evangelizing that popped up in a couple episodes. Kind of an icky feeling being told that to not accept Jesus as my lord and savior makes me a sinner when I thought I was listening for advice about financial resiliency. I’d seek out my nearest church or an outwardly evangelical podcast if I was looking for that... Anyways, keep up the great interviews, I’ll give ‘em a try!

Life changing

I can’t say how much this podcast has meant to me. Clay asks the questions that I know many ranchers want to ask themselves. He brings so many valuable guests with a plethora of knowledge about grazing and the cattle industry.
BuffaloFischer

Worth your time

Well worth the time. Informative, easy to listen to format. Clay does a really good job asking questions to keep the conversation and the “Golden nuggets” of knowledge flowing. Lots of episodes covering a variety of topics, and he asks questions of well known ag figures that are not only helpful but haven’t necessarily been asked and recorded for listeners before. Looking forward to hearing more “technical” production and financial tidbits. Keep up the good work Clay.

Great resource

Thank you!

Great Podcast

I was looking for a podcast to cover ranching and really look forward to learning more through this podcast. Thank you for your work.

Promising Podcast

Clay, is doing a great job of recruiting guests from all over the industry. He does not over repeat himself which is refreshing, we don’t want to hear the same thing over and over. Good at conversation with a humble approach to things he does not understand but is obviously interested in. Keep up the good work!

Real podcast for graziers, livestock farmers

We rotationally graze our livestock in the upper Midwest. I really enjoy this podcast. I’m always learning something as it relates to managing my animals and land. There are some other grazing podcasts out there is this is by far better in quality in topics, interviewing and content. Of course I relate everything to raising meat goats, but that’s a usual occurrence most of the time. 👍 Keep it up & the podcasts coming!

Best Cattlemen podcast

The working cows podcast is a must listen for me tweak. The information presented definitely makes me think.
Kid McCoy

The Cows are Coming Home!

I listened to the "Best of" episode and while I'm not a farmer/rancher I have to say I'm now motivated to listen to the rest. When it's people having honest conversations, even around subjects that don't apply directly, there's always something worth hearing. Well done!
