publisher Spring has sprung. The Texas land market is heating up just like the temperatures. Top brokers from around the state are reporting strong sales and increased prices. Thanks to the shale plays cash is literally flowing out of the ground, and, in many cases, are being plowed right back into the soil as solid investments are sought. While it’s always great to be in the Lone Star State, now is particularly exciting. This bigger, bolder, better issue marks the kick-off of our conservation partnership with the Texas Wildlife Association and its 6,500 members who own or manage nearly 40 million acres of private land in Texas. Working together, we’ve not only increased our impact, but diversified our content. In our pages, you’ll now find stories of committed stewardship, innovative conservation programs, and some valuable how-to information. This issue will introduce you to Randy Rehmann, one of TWA’s leaders. Eighteen years ago, Randy owned a single acre of land. Today, he owns and manages two ranches in Texas and is negotiating for a third. He also has acquired a Colorado ranch. His goals: leaving the land better than he finds it and shaping the conservation conversation to include the needs of private land owners. His story is one of stewardship in action. In addition, you can explore the Ranch Brigade, an effort to create the next generation of conservation-minded leaders for Texas and learn how grazing, despite its bad rap, can be a very useful land management tool. Then, of course, we still have all of the timely real estate news fit to print. As always, at Lands of Texas Magazine, we’re keeping it rural and we’re keeping it real because we reach Texas top to bottom.

Don’t Bet the Ranch

on the Weather Insure pasture, forage land to mitigate risk s any seasoned cowboy knows, ranching is a gamble. You can’t predict which cards Mother Nature will deal you, or if the markets will work in your favor. If you own ranch property in the Lone Star state, you understand this too well. Every county in Texas was plagued by drought at least one out of the last five years. And in 2011, parched pastures led to a historic reduction in Texas cattle numbers, as ranchers reduced their herd size in order to cut their losses. With the approach of spring, improved moisture conditions in most Texas regions offer hope for better hay crops and greener rangeland this year than last. Still, if you’re a rancher or hay producer who would rather not gamble on the unknown, there is a way to hedge your bets: It’s called Pasture, Rangeland and Forage (PRF) Insurance. This risk management tool allows you to insure both improved and unimproved pasture, as well as land that you intend to use for hay production. PRF, by design, is used to insure against a decline in rainfall or vegetation for rangeland and perennial forages.

A 184 Percent Return on Premiums in 2012 For many landowners affected by drought, the program has been a blessing. Texas Farm Credit, a rural lender that offers insurance products to ranchers and farmers, reports that its PRF policy holders realized a 184 percent return on their premiums in 2012. One of those policyholders, a central Texas cow-calf producer, was particularly glad he purchased PRF insurance that year. “In 2012, which was one of the driest years this cattleman has experienced, he received indemnity payments that were more than five times the cost of his premium,” says his loan officer, Charles Holtkamp, vice president and Brenham branch manager for Texas Farm Credit. “PRF insurance gave him immediate financial relief to cover feed costs as well as extra time to evaluate his destocking options. Although conditions have improved, you can be sure he took out a PRF policy again last year,” Holtkamp says.

Payouts Cover Feed Purchases, Lease Payments Similarly, Rachel Myers, director of insurance services for Great Plains Ag Credit in Amarillo, reports that PRF insurance


Sign-Up and Payout Dates has helped ease the financial burden on many producers throughout Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico in recent years by providing timely payments to help cover the cost of purchasing additional feed and hay, or making lease payments. “Since 2011, rainfall in our region has been well below average, and thus forage production for most producers was reduced. As the drought continues to plague our region, and reduce or eliminate grazing and haying potential of the land, the PRF payments allow producers to continue to pay leases rather than give up land that they may never have another chance to operate,” Myers explains. For those who are weighing the pros and cons of PRF insurance, Myers offers this observation: “When livestock prices are higher, you stand to lose more if you have poor grass or a hay crop fails.” In addition to PRF insurance, she also suggests that ranchers consider purchasing broad-form livestock insurance or even full mortality coverage for high-value animals. Known by various names, including grass insurance, hay insurance and rainfall insurance, PRF insurance is a customizable product developed by the USDA’s Risk Management Agency, which also sets the rules and prices. With PRF, landowners and lessees can choose:

• • • •

the specific months they want to be insured the number of acres they want to insure the type of land (hay or pasture) they want to insure the percentage of average historic rainfall they want to insure

In Texas, rainfall amounts are determined by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which means that there are no reporting or record-keeping requirements for participants. Each two-month insurance interval stands alone, so even if a wet period immediately precedes a dry period, the dry months can still pay out.

Decisions to Make Before You Sign Up Acreage – Individuals can insure all or part of their owned or leased property. If applicable, Farm Service Agency farm numbers or lease agreements are required to prove ownership and interest. Level – Coverage ranges from 70 to 90 percent of the average rainfall (or vegetation) index. The final grid index must come in below the chosen coverage level in order to trigger a payment. Protection Factor – This ranges from 60 to 150 percent and allows individualization based on the productivity of the insured property compared to the county average. Index Intervals – These are the specific two-month time periods during which data are collected in order to calculate the expected and final grid indices. PRF insurance is available from local crop insurance agents, including some Farm Credit lending cooperatives.

• • • •

Policy sign-up deadline – Nov. 15 Policy term – Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 Premiums due and payable – Sept. 30 Indemnities are paid after the RMA releases the final grid index, which is generally 60 days after the last day of the index interval. Example: For a January– February index interval, indemnities are calculated on May 1. No reporting or record-keeping requirements. Claims are calculated and paid automatically when the final grid index is released.

PRF Insurance Definitions Coverage Level – The percentage of historic average conditions your policy insures. Example: 75 percent in rainfall index means that you are insuring 75 percent of historic (1948–present) average precipitation. Final Grid Index (FGI) – The number that indicates the vegetative or rainfall condition for a grid during a specific interval. Example: 1.0 = average historic condition. Forage – Feed for livestock composed of plants grown for haying or grazing Grid – A 12 x 12–mile area for RI, and a 4.8 x 4.8–mile area for vegetation index Indemnity – The payment you receive Interval – The period during which acreage is insured. For rainfall index, intervals are two months, and the insured must select a minimum of two intervals. For vegetation index, intervals are three months, and the insured must select one or more intervals. Pasture – Land that is used for haying or grazing as a source of forage for livestock Rainfall Index (RI) – Provision used in Texas, Colorado, Montana, Oklahoma, Kansas and most other states. Uses NOAA precipitation data from multiple locations to measure precipitation in a grid. Rangeland – Native pasture on which livestock graze Trigger Index – The threshold for indemnity, determined by the policyholder’s coverage level. If the FGI is below the policyholder’s trigger index, an indemnity is paid. Example: If coverage level is 75 percent, the trigger index is .75. An indemnity will be paid if the FGI is below .75, but not if it is above .75. Article provided by Farm Credit Bank of Texas.

The Definition of Success:

photos courtesy of New Story Media

LAND, LIFESTYLE, LEGACY Webster’s dictionary defines success as, “the correct or desired result of an attempt.” Using that definition, Larry Jacobs of Jacobs Properties in Montgomery, Texas may just be the most successful man I have ever met. I haven’t looked at his bank statements. I don’t know what kind of car he drives and I haven’t been to his home. But, when I ask a man to tell me about his favorite things in the world and every answer encompasses his wife, his family, his work or his ranch, I know I have found a man who has discovered the secret to a happy life, a life built on the land, a lifestyle driven by the love of it and a legacy dedicated to preserving it.

LARRY JACOBS

What is the title on your business card? Broker. And that is all I need…just broker. When and how did you get started selling ranches? In general, I took an interest because my father loved investing in real estate. From the time I was a little guy, if he saw something he was interested in, I’d offer to go with him, look at it, walk it, find the best corners. When I got older, I kind of floundered around, started in engineering. Then, I decided real estate was what I really wanted to do. I took a few classes. Then I went into the Air Force Reserves. When I came out, I got my broker’s license and started doing that. Really, except for a few short periods of time, I was selling land.

head of cattle right now. Can you tell which grandchildren might go into the ranching business and which may go into real estate? You know when we are doing it, they are all interested. They are all homeschooled, so they get a lot of time to interact. They really enjoy helping with the cows. They enjoy riding the horses. Getting the cows up when we work them, they enjoy that…but what is their career going to be like, who knows? Heck, when Tyler graduated from Texas Tech he had a degree in ranch and wildlife management and had been guiding deer hunts up in Michigan. He really kind of thought he would go into that kind of management. Then he started thinking about it and I said, “Well, if you can’t find anything else you want to do, you can always come home and get in real estate with me.” He thought about it a while and asked me why I hadn’t ever mentioned that before. I told him I just didn’t want to be pushy. And, home he came. Now, he is my right hand guy. He is innovative and will probably guide the way Jacobs Properties goes. Not that I am retiring, I love what I do. Sounds like you have a pretty close-knit and amazing family? Yeah, we are truly blessed. We raised our kids, kind of like I was raised, having the opportunity to be in the country, learn how to work, learn how to be in the woods and be self-sufficient. I try to keep them off cell phones and iPads when they are around me, because it drives me crazy. But, it’s gotten to where I am on it so much of the time, it is hard for me to criticize. What is the thing in life you are most proud of? You know, I guess I am most proud of the reputation our family has. Although, I am cautious to say that because it is a blessing, it’s not anything I have earned. But, I am pretty proud of the reputation our company has, and I guess, I, along with Beverly grew that. That is the main thing I am most proud of that I actually had something to do with.

How many of your family are in the ranching business? My son and daughter and their spouses; and the grandchildren, we still have eight of them living on the ranch. One doesn’t. He is studying to be an EMT. Tyler is heavily involved. He is probably the driving force, with Beverly and I, but they all help us when we work cows and calves, vaccinate, de-horn and all those sorts of things. Beverly, my wife, she keeps the books, takes care of the bills and tells me when she’s out of money and that I need to go make a deal. We all kind of work together. So, on top of being a ranch broker, you also run a fully functional cattle ranch? Oh, you know, we have about 800 acres and a little over 200

What is the first ranch deal you worked on? Probably the first real ranch deal I worked on, I put a few partners together, me and a couple buddies and we bought 13 sections out in Pumpville, Texas near Pandale Crossing on the Pecos River. It was a deal where we really looked at it as something we were going to enjoy. A lot of it was investment driven, but a lot of it was also about what we could do with the land. What is the strangest experience you have had showing a ranch? Well, one of the strangest experiences was on a listing I had, where there was another agent involved.

have noticed that sometimes the buyer sees little things as big problems, an un-cleared brush pile, an abandoned truck in the field, loose boards on the barn. Sometimes they see those little problems as big headaches. You kind of have to figure out what the buyer is seeing and learn to address those concerns to get the best deal for everybody. How has the industry changed over the years? Technology! I remember when I got my first pager. First you had your pager, then your bag phone. I would walk around with a roll of quarters in my pocket for the pay phone. There used to be one on every corner. Now, you can’t find a pay phone anywhere. In general, how do you feel about the industry today? I love it! I get frustrated with a lot of the paperwork and industry association obligations, but my love of the land and the industry hasn’t changed.

What do you think is the greatest benefit of owning land? Well, you know, land is always a good investment. But, I think there are so many other intangibles to it…It is good for your mind to be out there, to get out in the country and get away from the city. It is a way of raising your family. Many generations lived their lives on the land and they really learned to work. They learned to keep commitments. They learned responsibility, responsibility for the foremen, for the animals. I just think there are whole lot of life lessons to be learned from living on the land. If you had to pick another career….any career…What would you do? Never thought about it. I enjoy doing it. Doing anything else really doesn’t ever cross my mine. This is what I love to do and I can’t imagine doing anything else. What is your favorite thing about Texas? Texas is still a wonderfully

FUTURE Real Estate MARKETING of

by Clover Carroll

“A man who stops advertising to save money is like a man who stops a clock to save time.” – Henry Ford You know that taking advantage of cutting-edge innovations will keep your business ahead. Here's a look at the future of real estate marketing: video. In June 2013, 183 million Americans viewed more than 44 billion online videos. Currently one third of all online activity is spent watching video. Cisco predicts that within two years 90% of internet traffic will be video content. Companies are investing more in video as they realize the positive impact it has on their bottom dollar. As the matter of fact, it is estimated that next year, national video ad spending will increase from $1.97 billion to $5.71 billion.

have to work to keep your audience. Implementing video is a great way to do this. An email subject line with the word “video” results in 50% more opens than one without. Important: when you say video, there had better be a real link to go to. Don’t try to fool your customers, it could drive them away. Spammers don't have friends.

In the September issue of “Real Estate” magazine, Stephen Schweickart, CEO of VScreen, said, “The handwriting is on the wall. It’s not a matter of whether or not Realtors will incorporate video into their marketing … but rather how far behind they will fall before seeing the light.”

VIDEO ON YOUR WEBSITE Adding video to all your web properties will direct more traffic to your business. Once you have invested in quality video, you want to use it to its full potential. It's got to be on the landing page. You want it front and center, not buried on an obscure page of your site. Just as your website is your virtual storefront, having video available when they land on your page is like handing them a nice cup of coffee and inviting them to have a seat.

VIDEO IN EMAIL Email campaigns are an important part of today's real estate market, but with the instant unsubscribe button you

Email clients can’t handle videos embedded directly into emails. However, you can get around this by using an image with a play button. Create a static image that is actually a link to a video; this can lead to 5-6x more clicks.


To encourage even more involvement from your visitors, be sure to put actionable content next to the video, (i.e. "Click here for...."). Video coupled with actionable content is a great combination to elicit action from casual browsers. Not only can video direct repeat traffic to your website, but if you have compelling video, your customers will advertise for you. People love to share videos on the internet, and social media has made this easier than ever. Putting your corporate or marketing film on a shareable platform allows individuals to share the video with their family, friends and co-workers. The beauty of this medium is that it can potentially go viral; thousands or millions of hits equal free advertising for your business on a grand scale. And video is an easy way to draw people in because they feel more involved, even if they only click "Like". GET FILM Up until now, virtual tours have been your only option. Many realtors use this to simulate video. At this point, it is important to differentiate between film and video. In the old days "film" was a more expensive process shot on cellulose while "videos" were the amateur handheld camcorder variety. But as technology has advanced it's not uncommon for major motion pictures to be "filmed" with a digital camera, so now the terms can be used as more of a description of quality. Video is your wedding video from the 1980s; film is a beautiful cinematic expression of awesomeness. High quality film is the future. Film has an advantage over virtual tours for a myriad of reasons. Virtual tours (still images linked together and set to music) provide a limited view of the property and may require plug-ins to work. Most importantly, they offer nothing more than what was posted in the MLS listing. You have high-end clientele who can spot low quality in an instant; why offer them low-end, dated marketing materials? A cheap production only cheapens the property and your reputation. Film gives you an edge over your competitors and communicates to customers that you are serious about selling their property.

IMPLEMENT BRANDED CONTENT Storytelling is a method brand marketers rely on to captivate, and film is now their chosen medium. Branded content blurs the line between conventional advertising and entertainment. It's a story that draws the viewer in, and it is highly branded. Branded content can amuse or inform. It delivers a chuckle, just for kicks. It's brought to you by a brand that leans more on emotional appeal than a heavyhanded sales pitch. You can implement branded content by telling your audience the story of your business, your property, your firm. Give them such a compelling experience that they will forward your film to their coworkers and friends, post it on their social media, and return to your site for more. Meanwhile, your business is getting marketed every time the film is viewed. AND DON'T FORGET CONTENT MARKETING Content marketing is another important component to reaching your audience. It's staying in touch with your customers, not necessarily to sell them something, but to establish yourself as a reliable, continuing source of information. This encourages ongoing business relationships and repeat business. Don't overlook social media such as blogs, Twitter, Pinterest, Linkedin and Facebook. These are perfect tools for content marketing. Instead of renting advertising space, you own the media and control your message. For example: Do you have experience in gardening, wildlife management, or have a great venison chili recipe? Offer these tidbits/services through your social media to direct traffic to your website. Keep your accounts updated regularly to build an audience (and make sure you have interesting content). In our media-driven society, you've got to be a cut above the rest. If your audience is not immediately captivated by your ad, they will tune out, click off or turn the page. With such high-quality technology now becoming accessible, you've got an incredible toolbox at your fingertips. Combining film with a powerful content marketing campaign is vital to staying up to date in today's market.

Done well, film gives an emotional hook that invites potential clients to pursue more information. According to Vindico, a leading video ad server, 80% of online video ads are abandoned within the first half of the ad. Audiences can "tell the sell", and you want to capture their attention before they click off your site. How do you accomplish that? Tell them a story.

AS A HABITAT MANAGEMENT TOOL by Ruben Cantu and Greg Simons Wildlife Biologists Wildlife Consultants, Inc.

Grazing, like any tool, can be beneficial or damaging, depending on how it is applied. The duality of grazing (and a host of other habitat management tools) was first, and best, expressed in 1933, by Aldo Leopold, writing in the preface of his landmark book, Game Management: “The central thesis of game management is this: game can be restored by the creative use of the same tools which have heretofore destroyed it - ax, plow, cow, fire, and gun....� Whether grazing positively or negatively modifies the landscape, depends on the managers, their goals and their skills. The most successful grazing managers understand several basic concepts.

36

2014

EVOLUTIONARY ROLE OF GRAZING ON RANGELAND PLANTS Texas rangeland plants, especially grasses, evolved under grazing pressure from migrating herds of bison and other ungulates. The vast herds moved into an area; grazed intensely, removing mature or dead plant material, thereby invigorating new plant growth; disturbed the soil with their hooves, aerating the soil and increasing water percolation; and deposited manure, which added organic matter and enhanced fertility. Once the grass had been grazed down, the herds moved on. The grass and other plants rested and recovered until the herds returned.


CARRYING CAPACITY Experienced managers understand the concept of carrying capacity, meaning each piece of land has a number of animals that it can sustain without being damaged. Carrying capacity is dynamic, changing with the rainfall, amount of forage and other variables. To be accurate and effective, the carrying capacity must take into account both livestock and wildlife. It is a constant balancing act. Obviously, the number of livestock can be easily manipulated up and down based on the amount of forage available. Ranchers can buy or sell more depending on the conditions. Population management for wildlife is not so simple. Managers have a small window of opportunity each year to make population adjustments. As a result, successful managers determine what the carrying capacity is during “normal” times and manage for a lower number. This creates a nutritional buffer for the drought years and “gravy” for the normal and good years. BALANCING LIVESTOCK AND WILDLIFE Cattle, sheep and goats are complementary grazers, meaning they all have minimal dietary overlap. Under good range conditions with abundant forage, competition for food is not an issue. Cattle eat primarily grass. Sheep eat forbs, the plants that most people call weeds. Goats eat browse also known as brush. When it comes to wildlife, white-tailed deer prefer forbs and browse, while exotics such as axis deer eat a complex diet of grass, forbs, and browse. Therefore, there can be competition between livestock and wildlife when foodstuffs are limited, especially between white-tailed deer and sheep and goats, because of overlapping diets. (Sheep and goats can thrive in areas that are more arid, so they are generally found west of I-35.) In an operation with a livestock focus, experienced managers sometimes “mix-and-match” livestock to use the available forage most efficiently. In a pasture that is primarily brush, the herd may include a higher percentage of goats, while in a grass pasture, cattle may be the predominant animal. The composition of the herds depends on the composition of the vegetation and the rancher’s goals. In the Hill Country, there are innovative ranchers who use goats to manage cedar, prickly pear and other brush. When winter settles in and cedar and prickly pear are the only green plants, the Giles family, who operates Hillingdon Ranch near Comfort, turn their Angora billy goats into pastures with emerging cedar problems. Because the cedar is green, the billies eat it, keeping it in check. The family places mineral blocks in patches of prickly pear, which are also evergreen. The goats are drawn to the prickly pear by the mineral block and tempted to eat it because it’s green. Because of the potential for competition, many wildlife-focused ranches avoid or severely limit the number of sheep and goats. In the aforementioned example, the family’s primary income is derived from diverse livestock operation. The deer are managed to provide family-oriented, recreational hunting for long-time lease holders instead of trophy opportunities. Again, the composition of the herds depends on the composition of the vegetation and the rancher’s goals. CONTINUOUS VS ROTATIONAL GRAZING Grazing systems come in two basic forms: continuous or rotational. In a continuous grazing system, livestock are put into a pasture and left there as long as the pasture will support them. Continuous grazing requires very little labor, but it can create problems. Animals, like people, have food preferences.

Some plants are just more palatable than others. If left in one place, cows, sheep and goats will selectively graze, continuously returning to their favorite plants. Over time, the constant grazing pressure, especially when combined with drought, can damage the plants’ roots, and eventually cause the preferred plants to die-off. When the preferred plants disappear, the livestock begin to seek out their second and third choices, applying the same intense pressure. If the cycle is not interrupted, even the second and third choice plants can be grazed out of existence, leaving only the plants the livestock by-passed, decreasing plant diversity, and severely diminishing the pasture’s overall productivity. To minimize these problems, experienced managers implement a rotational grazing system, which means that they control the amount of grazing pressure applied to their pastures by balancing the number of animals with the available forage and limiting the amount of time individual pastures are grazed. In this system, livestock are rotated through a series of pastures on a schedule that is determined by the forage’s condition. Rotational grazing uses livestock to mimic the movement of migrating herds, allowing pastures to rest and recover between grazing sessions. Instead of relying on a calendar or a set schedule to ascertain when the livestock need to be moved or how long a pasture needs to be rested, the managers rely on their eyes to evaluate the forage and rate of growth. OWNERSHIP OF LIVESTOCK While it is very common for people to have sole ownership of the livestock that graze on their property, it is not necessary to become a cowboy to enjoy the benefits of grazing. Some people own livestock in partnership with other people. In many cases, one partner is an experienced rancher, who oversees the livestock and its care in addition to his financial commitment, and the other is a landowner who also contributes financially and allows his ranch to be used for grazing. The co-owners share in the profits or losses. Another common option is a grazing lease. In this scenario, a landowner leases the grazing rights on his land to a rancher for compensation. The grazing lease is a legal contract that spells out the duration of lease, the number of livestock allowed, the price and any other specific requirements including repairs, damages and requirements for renewals. The rancher is responsible for providing and caring for the livestock. The landowner is guaranteed a payment. BENEFITS OF GRAZING Of all the management tools identified by Leopold, grazing is arguably the best one available to people wanting to improved wildlife habitat. First and foremost, grazing is part of the ecological and evolutionary process of the land, so managers are just harnessing the power of nature, not imposing a man-made process. Well-managed grazing can invigorate plant growth and increase plant diversity, while improving soil fertility and soil health by releasing nutrients and returning organic matter to the soil. Finally, grazing is economically feasible. Unlike mechanical or chemical control, livestock grazing, especially under a lease agreement, doesn’t require extensive inputs, equipment or labor. Plus, it is the only tool that offers an opportunity for a direct monetary return. Grazing is equal parts art and science, its success depends on the skilled hands wielding the tool.

M arilyn H offman the one hundred million dollar realtor  ’ expertise in selling extraordinary farms, ranches and estate properties attracts a clientele that reads like a Who’s Who of business, sports, entertainment and the social register. Golfer Lee Trevino, a Saudi Prince, sports legend Deion Sanders, transportation secretary Milo Bryant, a billionaire Texas oilman, Horatio Alger Member, Carl Westcott, cosmetics queen Mary Kay, Merv Griffin, and a major sports team owner have all been her clients.

Marilyn recently made history by listing the most expensive home in Texas, a $100,000,000 property. She also sold one of the largest estates in Texas to the new owners of a major sports team. Her sale of a $9,995,000 Penthouse in Dallas was the most expensive penthouse ever sold in Dallas. Marilyn sold a $13,500,000 estate to the owners of a Scottish castle. Her most recent sale was a $20,000,000 estate that she listed, sold and closed for full price in 24 days. This 35,000 sq. ft. home was the largest and most expensive sale in the state. This estate was previously listed with another international realtor at a lower price and did not sell.

“Marilyn’s aggressive approach to the international marketing of the property resulted in a completed transaction in five months from start to finish. I’m hasten to add that the prior agencies failed completely to do any effective marketing of Brantley Manor, although I did spend a substantial upfront marketing fee with them.”

Marilyn sold one of the most famous Hill country ranches, the Double Diamond Ranch, with 2,000 acres, 20 homes and an exotic game preserve.

CONSERVING A LEGACY Eighteen years ago, Randy Rehmann owned one acre of land. Today, he owns two ranches in Texas, one in Colorado and is negotiating for another Texas property. “I’ve always loved land,” Rehmann said. “I just never had any.” He traces this lifelong appreciation to five acres near Round Top, which were owned by his grandmother. “As kids, we spent a great deal of time running around barefoot and terrorizing anything that swam, crawled or flew. It wasn’t a big piece of land, but we made big memories.” Rehmann began shopping for his first ranch 10 years before he could actually afford to purchase one. He searched ranchland ads, clipped them, and stuffed them in a folder for future reference. Window shopping for ranches provided a pleasant distraction as he was building his mechanical contracting company, Dynamic Systems.

Dynamic Systems got its start on a Wednesday in October 1998, when Rehmann and his coworkers got laid off. The company that he was working for at the time folded in the midst of a high-profile, tight turnaround microelectronics project for the University of Texas. Rehmann and a group of his co-workers decided not to abandon the job. They finished it, exceeding expectations and launching Dynamic Systems in the process. Today, Rehmann serves as Chairman and CEO. The company has become a worldclass leader in fabricating and installing

sophisticated process and high-purity piping systems, process exhaust, HVAC piping/sheet metal and sanitary plumbing. Dynamic System maintains its corporate headquarters in Austin and branch offices in Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, Boston, Phoenix and Poughkeepsie, NY. As the business grew, Rehmann began shopping for land in earnest. Ironically, he bought the first ranch he looked at, signing the papers in October 1995. Despite its prime Hill Country location, he admits that many people would’ve passed it by. The land had access challenges due to easement issues and had been severely overgrazed. Fences were almost non-existent. There were only two water sources on the entire property. Wildlife management was not on the owner’s agenda. In fact, the doe:buck ratio was 14:1. “Basically, it was a cedar brake with a lot of potential. Fortunately, I’ve always liked

43


to build things and solve problems. It’s a rewarding challenge to make something from nothing and figure out workable solutions when people say it can’t be done,” Rehmann said. “Plus, its name was the Double R Ranch. It just felt right.” In the ensuing years, Rehmann and his family have done a lot of work. They’ve built roads and high fences, installed water sources, spot treated for undesirable plants, cleared cedar and burned almost 5,000 bussized piles of the encroaching tree. “We spent the first full year undoing what had been done and the next four adding human habitat like fences, roads and housing,” Rehmann said. “Since then, we’ve done some sort of habitat work on the ranch every week for the last 18 years.” Early on, Rehmann learned not to share his projects before his vision was realized. When the family acquired the Double R, it had a small seep spring that was surrounded by a thick stand of cedar. One day, in the middle of transforming the seep spring into a large rocked pond complete with a dam, Rehmann brought his wife and daughter to see the progress. At the time, the progress was rough-scraped bare ground, uprooted dead cedars, piles of rocks and a puddle of water the size of a truck hood. “I was puffed up, because I knew how far we’d come, but the look on my wife’s face told me she wasn’t pleased at all,” Rehmann said. “My daughter said, ‘Oh my gosh, Dad, you ruined it.’” He laughed and noted that now, the reworked spring, which has been dubbed Lake Louise, is one of their favorite places on the ranch, and this story is one of his favorite memories.

While the habitat work and problem solving have increased the value of the land, the efforts have paid dividends far beyond financial ones. The blood, sweat and laughter have given the Rehmann family a place that is truly their own and a shared passion for the outdoors. Today, Randy and his wife of 35 years, Debbie, spend as much time, as possible, on the land with their now-grown children and their families. “My goal is to leave the land better than I found it, but along the way, I get to share it with other people,” said Rehmann. “My kids bring their friends, many of whom are young married couples with small children, and I get to watch the love of the outdoors being passed from generation to generation. Frankly, though, nothing is better than seeing your grandchild get excited about being outside.” His experience with the first ranch inspired Rehmann to acquire a second property near Bracketville and a third property in Colorado. The ranch under negotiation is in the Hill Country. All are fixer-uppers. His experience working with government agencies in Colorado has made him appreciate Texans’ views of private land stewardship. “In Colorado, no one represents the viewpoint of the private landowner,” he said. “It is very hard to accomplish things, because the powers-that-be don’t believe that private landowners can -- or will -- do the right thing for the land. In Texas, people understand there would be almost no conservation without the efforts of private landowners.” Rehmann was already interested in wildlife management, private property issues and conservation when he met Kirby Brown, then-Executive Vice President for the Texas Wildlife Association, as they both served on the


Bethany Lutheran Church Board of Directors together. Brown introduced him to TWA, and Rehmann, although he was a relatively new landowner, quickly found himself involved and on the fast track to leadership. TWA represents 6,500 members who own and manage almost 40 million acres of land. Rehmann served as President from 2007-2009. He then took the helm of the Texas Wildlife Association Foundation, a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing ethical environmental education about wildlife and habitat conservation to Texans of all ages, serving as President from 2011 to present. And, most recently joined the board of the Texas Agricultural Land Trust. In 2013, he was named Texas Outdoorsman of the Year. “I like being involved, because every day is an opportunity for a solution, and decisions Ware made by those who show up,” Rehmann said. “If people aren’t willing to stand for a cause, then the cause goes away.” “As a society, we can’t afford to let open space land and our natural resource base go away, and it’s imperative that rural landowners be heard, despite the growing din of urban issues,” he said. Rehmann sees a big role for new landowners in the conservation conversation, because they bring different perspectives, ideas and experiences that often bridge the gap between urban and rurWal Texas. “The responsibility of land stewardship is a serious one,” Rehmann said. “When you do the right thing for the land, the habitat and the animals, then you do the right thing for all of the people, whether they live in the country or the city.”

Hats off to the Cowboy! The Tenth Annual National Day of the Cowboy - Saturday, July 26, 2014 by Bethany Braley

History

NationalDayoftheCowboy.com

Sponsored in the U.S. Senate in 2005, 2006, and 2007, by Wyoming’s late U.S. Senator, Craig Thomas, the National Day of the Cowboy is a day set aside to celebrate the contribution of the Cowboy and Cowgirl to America’s culture and heritage. In 2008, the National Day of the Cowboy resolution was sponsored simultaneously in the U.S. House of Representatives (for the first time) by Arizona’s U.S. Congresswoman, Gabrielle Giffords, and in the U.S. Senate by Senator Mike Enzi, WY. It passed in the Senate and the House concurrently, naming Saturday, July 26, 2008 as the 4th Annual National Day of the Cowboy. On Friday, June 20, 2008, the National Day of the Cowboy resolution also passed in the Arizona State Legislature, making Arizona the first state to pass the resolution. We asked Arizona Representative, Jennifer Burns, to sponsor the resolution, which she readily agreed to do. In thinking it over though, Ms. Burns felt it would be more meaningful if it was sponsored by Senators Jake Flake and Jack Brown, the two remaining Cowboys in the Arizona legislature. Senators Flake and Brown both accepted that honor, but sadly, Jake Flake passed away before he was able to introduce the resolution. However, it was subsequently introduced in his honor, by Jack Brown, and passed easily and concurrently in both the Arizona House and the Senate. In 2009, the resolution passed in New York, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Arizona. It was also proclaimed by a number of governors, mayors and town councils. In the words of the former President Bush, “We celebrate the Cowboy as a symbol of the grand history of the American West. The Cowboy’s love of the land and love of the country are examples for all Americans.”

Texas Legislation

As some of you know, I recently completed a trip through Texas in an effort to determine what steps we could take to ensure Texas is on board for passing the NDOC as a permanent bill in their legislature when next they convene in 2015. I feel strongly that if we could get Texas to commit to introducing and passing the NDOC as a bill seeking permanent status for the Day of the Cowboy, we could more easily get other states to follow suit more quickly. I started out in El Paso. Thanks to Bernie Sargent, who is a long time NDOC supporter there and who also ramrods the NDOC celebration each year at the impressive El Paso County History Museum, I was able to meet on Monday with Michael Breitinger, Chief of Staff for Representative Joe Pickett, and on Tuesday with Anjelika Lewis, District Director of District 76 and a member of Representative Naomi Gonzales’ staff. I reviewed the NDOC campaign status with both Michael and Anjelika, emphasizing that people around the country want to know where Texas is in the process of making the NDOC permanent. They both understood the economic and cultural significance of this effort and both could see that it’s important for Texas to finally make it permanent after passing it three times as a resolution. Ms. Lewis also offered to convene a group of 6 legislators from that district in 2014 so that Bernie and I could speak directly to all of them at once and thus perhaps, increase the number of co-sponsors for the bill in 2015. I told her I would be more than happy to come back to El Paso to speak to such a group, so we’ll be working on setting that up for next year sometime. On Wednesday, I drove to Austin and met with Nathan McDaniel, the Policy Analyst on the staff of Senator Donna Campbell. We talked about the project for quite some time and although Senator Campbell was in surgery (she is a surgeon) at the time, Nathan felt certain she would be a willing co-sponsor for the NDOC bill in 2015. There is a small problem here however, having to do with Texas election years that end in the number 2 (i.e.2012). It seems those elected that year, must draw straws the following year, half of whom will get short straws. Those getting the short straws must run for re-election in 2014. Senator Campbell did draw a short straw, so we will not know for certain until November 2014 elections, whether or not she will still be a Senator and thus available to sponsor the bill for us. I think this broader approach is a good idea for every state we are working on, because not only does it give us added protection for the bill, but it is also likely to have the effect of engaging more organizations in celebrating the NDOC, which the Goodnight Museum, the Texas History Museum, the New Mexico History Museum and The Bishop’s Lodge in Santa Fe, are all now considering. Now that seven states have passed the NDOC bill in perpetuity, I am very encouraged with how the NDOC campaign is growing, especially since Kansas will be passing it in January and, I believe we will also be able to achieve permanent passage in Idaho and Washington in early 2014 as well. Board members and I have chosen additional states on which to focus our efforts in 2014, including Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, and Colorado.

The Ranch Brigade PRODUCING BEEF AND LEADERS


a theme of stewardship,” Holdsworth said. “Stewardship combines appreciation and respect with knowledge and action.” The cadre of camps can accommodate 168 young people each summer. As the Texas Brigades’ reputation has grown, admission has become increasingly competitive. Cadets are 13-17 years old and come from all walks of life. “The Brigades aren’t just for kids who hunt, fish and ranch, they are for young people who benefit from the efforts of private land stewards – that’s all of them,” Holdsworth said. In fact, the inaugural Ranch Brigade included a young man from Manhattan, New York, who had spent several summers attending enrichment programs at Harvard University, and a young woman, who currently lives in San Antonio, but has counted nine different countries as home, as well as ranch kids from all over Texas. The group was 50 percent male and 50 percent female.

The Ranch Brigade by Lorie Woodward Cantu

The Ranch Brigade is the most recent incarnation of one man’s vision. Tasked with youth outreach, Dr. Dale Rollins, a then-Extension Wildlife Specialist with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, envisioned equipping young people with leadership, communication, and critical thinking skills, using hands-on experience with the biology and behavior of bobwhite quail as the teaching tool. “Dale’s idea translated into the Bobwhite Brigade, a camp unlike any other,” said Helen Holdsworth, executive director of Texas Brigades and TWA Conservation Legacy Program Director. “Instead of dances and swimming pools, it was founded on science, team building and leadership development. It was unconventional, but it worked -- and worked well.”

“Our goal is to create ‘conservation ambassadors,’ young people who are equipped with fact-based information, hands-on experience and the confidence to be effective leaders in their communities and in their careers,” Holdsworth said. And the training shows. In fact, Chris Farley was inspired to develop the Ranch Brigade after encountering “shining stars” in the TCU Ranch Management Program, where he is Assistant Director. “Those students just stood out,” Farley said. “They were knowledgeable, confident, and articulate – and they were all graduates of the Brigade.” To learn more, he volunteered to work with Dr. Rollins at a Bobwhite Brigade camp in 2011. “Up front, I admitted to Dale that I was attending selfishly because I wanted to teach land stewardship and beef production,” Farley said. “As each generation moves further from the soil, our collective understanding of production agriculture diminishes. My passion is battling ag illiteracy.” He came away from his Brigade experience even more determined to create a camp that focused on beef production from gate to plate.

Since that first camp held in 1993, the Texas Brigades program has expanded to include: the Rolling Plains Bobwhite Brigade, the South Texas Bobwhite Brigade, the North Texas Buckskin Brigade, the South Texas Buckskin Brigade, the Bass Brigade, the Waterfowl Brigade, and, in 2013, the Ranch Brigade. Although the Texas Brigades has a state office that provides support services including recruitment, registration, marketing, and advertising, each individual camp is developed, staffed and funded by a local volunteer committee.

Over the course of two years, Farley simultaneously developed the Ranch Brigade curriculum, its steering committee and volunteer base. The adults who volunteer their time are experts in their respective fields and all have a passion for youth and natural resources, he said. Many of the volunteers see their participation as a way to give back. They want to introduce the next generation to the wonders and responsibilities of the natural world, just as someone once did for them, he said.

“While each camp has its own individual flavor, they are all built on

Ranch Brigade. He graduated from the first Bobwhite Brigade, the TCU Ranch Management Program, and earned a BBA from TCU. Today, he oversees his family’s diversified businesses that include ranching, real estate, manufacturing, and Reata Restaurants. Micallef said, “We are providing young people with the most current information available with the goal of creating the next generation of leaders. We want to inspire them to do great things. Many people believe that our best and brightest should be doctors, lawyers or Wall Street financiers, but we need the same smart people involved in agriculture and natural resources if we have any hope of keeping the productivity going.” In the past decade, Micallef has noted an increased interest in agriculture as an industry that offers both domestic and global opportunities. Recently, he reviewed the business plans for two projects: a feedlot in Turkey and a processing plant in Tanzania, designed to conform to Halal laws and supply the Islamic market. “The demand for food, fiber and shelter just keeps growing,” Micallef said. “The next generation of leaders is facing a world of opportunities and a world of challenges, so they have to be prepared.” Because both the opportunities and the challenges are real, the expert volunteers don’t lower their expectations. “As we were developing the curriculum, one veteran volunteer, who is also one of the state’s foremost range specialists, told me, ‘Don’t you dare dummy this down. Talk to the kids just like you would talk with any other producers,’” Farley said. Taking that advice Farley built the curriculum around the “three keys to sustainable ranching”: ecology, economics and enjoyment. These keys also provide the framework for learning at TCU’s Ranch Management Program. “Ecology and economics have always gotten the lion’s share of attention because they are essential, but there is a very human element, too,” Farley said. “If young people don’t enjoy the time they spend on the land, they’re not going to stay there.” But before anyone can enjoy an experience, whether it’s ranching or a camp, they have to be engaged, he said. To engage them, you have to get their attention. Within three hours of arrival, the Brigade cadets were assisting with the necropsy of a cow, following the digestive system from beginning to end to get a complete understanding of cattle as grazing animals and tying the stock’s productivity directly to the availability of forage. Ecology. They also dissected the reproductive tract to set the stage for discussions of fertility. Economics. While veterinarians oversaw the necropsies and explained the systems, the students were active

participants, learning with their eyes, ears, and hands. Engagement that leads to enjoyment. Alex Jurica, a senior from Missouri City, Texas, who has set her sights on vet school at Texas A&M University, said, “Starting with the necropsy, our leaders showed us how everything fit together from the anatomy to stewardship and livestock handling to marketing. They taught us all of the things that make it possible to produce cattle economically and sustainably.” In the three years since she began high school, Jurica has amassed a show string, including one Brahman and four Beefmaster heifers, that she plans to use as the foundation of her own purebred herd in the future. She continued, “Plus, you are learning from people who have been where you are and are now showing you where you can go.” To keep the students engaged during the days that started at 6:30 a.m. and lasted until almost midnight, the steering committee alternated 30-minute classroom sessions with field experiences. Taylor Schwartz, a junior from Wall, Texas, near San Angelo, said, “The camp is science-based and hands-on. Everything we learned inside, we went outside and learned it again in a hands-on manner.” His family farms in several locations in the state, but Schwartz is interested in diversifying their operation by adding a livestock component once he completes his post-high school education. The outdoor activities ranged from plant identification, livestock handling, and water percolation demonstrations to friendly competitions that ran the gamut from twice-daily quiz bowls to hay stacking and goat milking contests. Point totals were kept as the four, five-member teams battled for the coveted Top Herd title. The teams were motivated to earn bragging rights, not win prizes, although prizes were given, Schwartz said. “Come expecting to learn a lot. Don’t expect it to be easy and think that it’s okay to just go through the motions,” Schwartz, who is also an Eagle Scout, said. “You’ll be tested. Slacking is not an option, because your team needs the best you have.” The competition is just beginning when the Ranch Brigade ends. Cadets work toward scholarships, and the right to come back to the next summer’s Ranch Brigade as an Assistant Herd Leader, by giving presentations about natural resources and beef production in their communities, amassing points for each outreach activity. The cadets return home inspired by the experience and eager to pass along their hard-earned knowledge. Jurica said, “If we don’t learn how to lead, how will we show the generation after us? If we don’t lead, they’ll be lost.”

RANCHERSExtendFARMERS Helping Hand

by Dee Lackey

The year is 1953 … The US is engaged in a war with Korea, Eisenhower is in the White House and Texas is in the throes of a devastating drought. West Texas Rehabilitation Center is organized in Abilene, Texas to care for children suffering from the debilitating effects of polio and cerebral palsy. Fast forward to 2014 … West Texas Rehab Center is the premiere provider of physical rehabilitation and communication services for children and adults – regardless of financial circumstances -throughout the vast West Central Texas region, where dry times still prevail and rain events are infrequent but front page news when they occur. Partnering to assist these patients in overcoming the disabling effects of illness and injury are big-hearted ranchers, farmers and agribusiness owners who’re “riding” for WTRC, lending their own “brand” of support through a unique fundraising campaign -- Round-Up for Rehab. Prominent Fort Chadbourne, Texas ranchers Conda and Edna Wylie donated the first pen of steers to be sold to benefit the Center’s operations in 1960. Now an integral part of Rehab’s heritage, RoundUp makes a significant difference in the lives of Rehab patients, like five-year-old Cameron who’s too busy climbing on the Center’s new therapeutic playground to notice ranchers are equally busy. Their goal is to round up livestock and cash donations, primarily in the fall via special sales and events, to assist WTRC campus operations in Abilene, San Angelo and Ozona. Cameron’s regimen at Rehab includes sessions in physical and occupational therapy as well as speech where the therapy team works weekly to help him overcome the effects of developmental delay and seizure disorder. “WT Rehab has been our anchor,” says mom Stephanie, “even in times when we were without insurance coverage, we’ve never been without care.” His story is one of many made possible by a loving family, conscientious staff, state-of-the-art facilities and generous supporters.

“The combined support of ranchers, farmers, agri-businessmen and women plus a cadre of volunteers illustrates the dedication and effort that has sustained West Texas Rehab Center for 60 years,” adds WTRC President Woody Gilliland. “And they’re the reason this organization can look to the future with confidence and pride.” For information about WTRC’s services or Round-Up activities, visit www.WestTexasRehab.org or call 325-793-3507 or 325-223-6311.

Volunteer Round-Up community chairmen in the Big Country and Concho Valley, joined by Honorary Chairman and western entertainer Red Steagall, ask their neighbors to join the drive which will provide operational dollars to care for the 500 individuals who’re served daily by West Texas Rehab therapists, who have appropriate licensing and/or certifications. Rehab’s specialty services include physical and occupational therapy, speech and audiology, employer services, orthotics and prosthetics, pediatric services, aquatic therapy, family support services, retired senior volunteer program and Hospice of the Big Country.

• CONSERVATION LEGACY • WATER POLICY • PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS • YOUTH HUNTING PROGRAM • BIG GAME AWARDS In 2013, the Texas Wildlife Association celebrated a record year of program success. And we’re working hard to make 2014 another banner year by better serving Texas wildlife and its habitat, protecting private property rights, promoting Hunting Heritage and conservation, and educating all Texans on the public values of wildlife on private land. Water is an extremely important natural resource issue for Texas private land stewards and for Texas. To better utilize the expertise of TWA volunteer leaders who have experience in the water policy arena, TWA recently established a Water Advisory Committee. In addition, TWA is engaged in the navigable streams issue and the private property rights questions associated with it. TWA supports efforts and solutions to create a more transparent and predictable process for private landowners involved in navigable water processes and regulatory actions. The organization is also keenly interested in the state’s prioritization of State Water Plan projects and their funding. It is imperative that the interests of rural Texas and the conservation efforts of private land stewards, on whose land the first raindrop principally falls, are represented. TWA is committed to being such an advocate, on behalf of its members.

TWA Conservation Legacy program efforts in 2013 reached a record total of 448,265 youth and adults with natural resource education material. The 2013 total represented an increase of over 146,000 youth and adult impacts, compared to 2012. The largest segment of Conservation Legacy impacts occurred in the Learning Across New Dimensions in Science (L.A.N.D.S.) outreach efforts, with Discovery Trunks (80,673 student impacts), Wildlife by Design (31,863 student impacts), “Critter Connections” publication (172,379 distributed copies), Youth on-demand Webinars (11,533 viewers), and Distance Learning (60,972 viewers). Forty-six schools and over 6,900 students participated in the L.A.N.D.S. Intensive program education efforts. The Texas Youth Hunting Program, a successful program co-sponsored by TWA and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, conducted 217 hunts in the 2013-14 hunting season. A total of 3,327 youth and adults participated and enjoyed the experience, because of the generosity and support of 191 landowners, who made the weekends possible. Nearly 1,500 volunteers across the state were essential to the program’s success. January featured three “Super Hunts,” hosted by the Cherry Springs Wildlife Management Association (WMA), the Harper WMA, and the Cave Creek WMA, the largest with 65 hunters. The Louie Schreiner YO Memorial Hunt was also conducted in January. The Texas Big Game Awards continues to receive entries from hunters and landowners for the 2013-14 hunting season. Texas Big Game Awards, cosponsored by TWA and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, honors the tradition of hunting, while providing participants with the knowledge that hunting equals habitat. For the 2012-13 season, Texas Big Game Awards received 823 qualified scored entries, 124 youth division entries, 223 first harvest entries, and it recognized 271 landowners. Texas Big Game Awards Sportsman’s Celebrations in 2014 are: June 7 – Lubbock, June 28 – Brenham, July 11 – San Antonio, and August 9 – Kerrville. Come join us, and be a part of TWA’s mission and success! www.Texas-Wildlife.org

feature property 185± Acres | Montgomery County Welcome to Emerald Lake Estate! Please watch the Estate videos or visit the Estate’s website EmeraldLake-hmr.com for an in-depth look at this one-of-a-kind property. This spectacular 185-acre private and gated Estate is located in Magnolia, Texas, approximately 40 miles northwest of Houston. Meticulously developed, this estate boasts the private 25-acre Emerald Lake, a world class bass lake with ten islands, a nine-acre Japanese garden and a seven-acre botanical garden with over 5,000 azaleas. Additional improvements include the Estate house, guesthouse, boathouse, multiple gazebos, 21 bridges in all shapes and sizes and miles of walking trails! In addition, there is private helipad access located on the lake and a tropical sandy beach. The grounds are exquisitely manicured which gives them a resort-like feel and appearance all year round. Located within the upscale golfing and equestrian community of High Meadow Ranch this property offers something for everyone. Emerald Lake Estate boasts all the amenities one would expect from an elegant country lake Estate but there are numerous opportunities for a buyer to come in and make the Emerald Lake Estate their own. Over the past 15 years, David and Rondi Weber have taken this pristine wooded landscape and sculpted it into an incredibly unique property. Boating, fishing, golfing, camping, hiking, horseback riding, nature watching, gardening and much more… are all here… in your own backyard! With the planting of over 20,000 trees, shrubs and flowers through the years, the Estate has been transformed into a veritable paradise with a resort-like ambience. In fact, each spring the Weber’s open their gates for the annual Azalea Walk event to the local community and numerous garden clubs. Guests can walk the mile long trail and view this eclectic mix of exotic flora brought in from all over the United States. The colors in the spring are absolutely breathtaking! Privacy has always been an important objective in the development of Emerald Lake Estate and only about 90 acres have been fully developed, including the lake and various gardens, leaving most of the perimeter in its natural forested state. There is still an abundance of space in its natural state for developing new areas including an optimal build site for another Estate house should one be desired. “The canvas is still large enough to paint your own picture”, says owner David Weber, “And even though Rondi and I have decided it’s time to downsize, there’s still a lot of opportunity to take things to the next level. I’m excited for the new owners to have their own once-in-a-lifetime experience.” If you can envision yourself owning one of the most exclusive and unequaled pieces of property in the southern United States, we invite you to experience Emerald Lake Estate. It just may surpass your wildest dreams!

market report Sometimes everything old is new again and so it is with prices in Texas land markets. Abundant sales of small acreage tracts propelled overall Texas land prices to an all-time high in 2013. Prices had recovered 2009 losses by 2012, but they made astonishing overall gains in 2013, rising to $2,640 from $2,295 in 2012. That substantial 15 percent surge effectively more than doubled the amount of increase between 2011 and 2012. This overall gain indicates a robust market with prices ranging higher in all regions. Even areas that had continued to languish in the past several years presided over markets producing solid growth in prices and apparent increased levels of activity. Because small acreage sales at high prices per acre dominated 2014 markets th overall run up in prices of larger properties probably fell short of that 15 percent mark. The broad market surge, masked a trend toward caution in farmland markets as farmers viewed USDA forecasts for lower corn prices and declining net farm income with caution. Farmers’ voracious appetite for cropland appeared to cool as evidenced by price declines emerged in the largest market segment in the panhandle despite growth in overall price. Breaking the gloom that has gripped the Northeast Texas region, that area stretching from Fort Worth to Texarkana, prices posted a strong positive trend for the first time since 2009, increasing more than 20 percent. Robust price

advances in large property prices enhanced the growth in small acreage prices to their highest inflation adjusted prices since 2008. Despite this recovery, real or deflated prices still lag slightly lower than 2008 market levels. This region, tied to the fortunes of Dallas and Fort Worth reflected the damage sustained by the economies in that area in 2009. These 2013 price developments suggest that much of that damage has been repaired. Markets in the Amarillo - Lubbock region reflected the most distress in 2013 as farmers curtailed their frenzied purchases of cropland. Drought, uncertainty about future commodity prices, and worries about declining water tables converged to slightly apply the brakes to overall price growth in this region. The overall price barely grew in 2013, but that pullback followed two years with growth exceeding 20 percent. Markets rarely sustain expansions of that magnitude for long. As 2014 dawns, signs point to continuing economic improvement at a snail’s pace compared to most post-World War II recoveries. High levels of debt throughout the world hang like ominous thunder clouds on the horizon. Investors continue to face markets fraught with risk that provide substandard returns. Still, six years of gloom suppressing pent up demand has given way to market movements supporting rising prices on a broad front. Only unforeseen events threaten continued recovery in 2014.

Legendary Y.O. Ranch Kerr County

29,000± Acres | Kerr County Property ID: 1277517 Captain Charles A. Schreiner, merchant, banker, philanthropist, pioneer rancher, and Texas Ranger purchased the Y.O. Ranch in 1880, and it became headquarters for the Schreiner Cattle Company, and the Live Oak Ranch headquarters for its sheep operations. Throughout five generations, the ranch is notable for many firsts, including leasing land for hunting to provide income, establishing a registry for Texas Longhorns that brought the breed back from the brink of extinction, and for introducing exotic hoof stock that earned it a reputation world-wide as ‘America’s Original Game Ranch’. With an established infrastructure, it is a notable destination for native and exotic hunting, Longhorn cattle and animal auctions, ranch tours, social and corporate events, and superb recreation and relaxation. Native wildlife includes whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, quail and wild boar, plus exotics of Axis, Sika, Fallow, Scimitar Horned Oryx, Blesbok antelope, Black Wildebeest, Beisa Oryx, Eland, Red Sheep, Persian Ibex, Pere David Deer, Barasingha Deer, Blackbuck antelope, Aoudad sheep, and Corsican Ram among others. An innovative animal conservation program has assured strength of these herds and made the Y.O. Ranch a world leader in exotic game preservation. Robert Dullnig, (210) 213-9700

A beautiful kitchen that looks like something out of the early 1900’s but has a working modern dish washer hidden behind a pulldown cabinet door, a restored 1937 Chambers gas stove that cooks as good as new, a 1937 Fridgidaire refrigerator, and a lot of original glass in the cabinets and interior windows. The house was moved in a set on a concrete slab. The house and barn are on Lee County water. There is a beautiful cypress wood barn that has plenty of room for storage or would make a great party barn, or shop. Upstairs is a three bedroom apartment or guest quarters that has not been finished out. Sheetrock is up and it is plumbed and ready for your choice of colors and appliances to finish out. It would make a great place for guests to stay. There are five tanks on the property and on a recent visit they were full of ducks. A couple of pit blinds would make this an ideal duck hunting property. The property is crossed fenced into four pastures. Fences are in good condition and the property has been running a small cattle operation. In addition, there is a chicken coop with concrete floor and a garden area to grow your own garden. It has the high fence posts in the ground and just needs to be finished with high fence wire to keep the deer out. There are no minerals owned by seller.

In less than five minutes you can be from the mainland to the island via boat from your private six acre mainland shore base. Once on the island the recreational choices are yours. You can enjoy the gorgeous sun rises over the bay, and picturesque sunsets over Corpus Christi’s skyline. The island offers great fishing, from wade fishing to having a convenient place to launch from to go off shore, and everything in between. The protected wet lands is great habitat for ducks and other birds, and the pond on the island makes a wonderful waterfowl hunting habitat. There are multiple beaches to enjoy, giving you the opportunity to sun bath, build sandcastles, play beach volleyball and everything else you could think of that is fun to do on a beach. The island sits 44 feet above sea level at its highest point offering tremendous 360 degree views, but having that high of an elevation offers something else as well. It makes for great arroyos that are caused by the rain runoff. These arroyos are wonderful to explore and create natural hills and valleys on the Island. Over two miles of the shore line has been rip rapped, and or sheet piled to preserve the beach. The 100 foot jetty created a selfreplenishing beach. The cute sea side cottage sits at 33 feet above sea level, well above the tidal surge line. The two bedroom, two bath cottage offers large porches, custom kitchen, enclosed game room/crows nest, outdoor shower, and is a wonderful place to entertain. The docking area has a new boat lift in place and 24-hour flood light for security. The lighting also offers great fishing at night.

753Âą Acres | Rio Arriba, NM Property ID: 1499233 This outstanding offering, which is known as Los Campos de Chama, has been owned and enjoyed by the same family for over 50 years and this is the first and only time the property has been offered for sale. The Los Campos de Chama is ideally located along both sides of US Highway 64/84, just west and southwest of Chama, New Mexico. This picturesque property is located in the productive Chama Valley, offering spectacular views of the high mountain country in the distance. Elevations on the property are in the range of 7,800 feet. The Los Campos de Chama property has for many years been operated as a seasonal livestock grazing unit, complimented by extraordinary, extremely valuable water rights which are used to irrigate a major portion of the property. The ranch has the historic right to irrigate 454 acres of productive meadows and native pasture through an extensive network of engineered earthen ditches off of the main MB Ditch, which receives its substantial flow from the nearby Chama River. Each acre of irrigated land (454 acres) is allocated 1.5 acre feet (18 inches) of water per year. Water rights of this magnitude are extremely rare in New Mexico, and if ever sold, generally command a price of several thousand dollars per acre foot, and much more when marketed for municipal use purposes. The Los Campos de Chama property is extremely reasonably priced at only $4,900 per acre. Considering the substantial amount of valuable water rights, this property is a rare find. The mineral conveyance is negotiable.
