Clarendon College RFO • Ranch & Feedlot Operations

Preserving the heritage we hold dear, while advancing the future of agriculture by educating and equipping tomorrow’s stewards.
Thank you Beaver County Stockyards, Jeff, and Layne for making time for the class on a sale day. If you are looking for a place to market your cattle, give them a shot at it, you won’t be disappointed. While we were there I saw Jeff stop the sale because there was a draft of calves that sold, but it wasn’t the complete set. He had them bring them back around and sold them as the full set. He said, “I’m here for the seller, not the buyers!”

It has been a busy couple of weeks for the RFO students. We have had the opportunity to visit the crew at MobileVeterinary Practice and assist with several procedures. Later that day, we participated in the Texas Cattle Feeders Association fed Beef Showcase, hosted by West Texas A&M University Ag Departement. Thank you to both for always putting on a first class event
We then traveled to the Taylor Ranch on Tuesday, where we spent the day learning about their use of genomics and selective matings to achieve a superior beef animal. While at the Taylor Ranch, several of the students were able to participate in a live radio broadcast with the host Jimmy Clark. (The link to the interview will be linked in the comments.)
On Wednesday, we spent the day back on campus and heard from Blake Vineyard, the West Texas Deputy Director for Senator Ted Cruz, about various topics being handled legislatively.
On Thursday, we traveled to Shamrock, Texas, and toured Great Plains Breeders Services, where students learned about collecting bulls and seeing the process from collection through freezing.
