Dear Friends,

t’s 104 degrees outside and a good time to write a letter. We are dry as is everyone else in the state although there are a few areas that have had some rain. Here at the ranch we have had three inches in the last nine months. Some predictions claim the monsoon rains will start in July and we hope that comes to fruition. The mid-year convention in Ruidoso was well attended and I thank all our sponsors, speakers, trade show participants, and NMCGA staff for making this a successful convention. The New Mexico Association of Conservation Districts also held their convention at the same time. We had nineteen Congressional and State-wide candidates attend the candidate forum and I want to thank all of them for coming to introduce themselves and visit with cattle growers. The Western Landowners Alliance (WLA) made a presentation to the NM Soil and Water Conservation Commission during the convention pertaining to their legislative push for a special use valuation for land that has previously been in agricultural use but is no longer used for agriculture and is not commercial. Under present law, this land would no longer qualify for ag exemption and would be taxed at current and correct value however, WLA wants to create a special use valuation based on conservation plans where the land is used solely for “conservation” and taxed at five percent of current and correct value. NMCGA and the Assessors Affiliate are against this proposal. Caren, Michelle, and I attended the Assessors Affiliate meeting in Socorro where Caren gave a great presentation to the Assessors. The original introduced legislation was intended for older small landowners in Taos county who were no longer able to farm their property. However, the proposal now is to not cap acreage that would qualify for this special valuation and we believe this incentive’s investors to purchase ranches in NM where they could park their money and not have to run livestock. Of course, we believe in a property owner’s right to use their property as they like as long as it is not against the law or harms their neighbors however, this proposal will impact local economies due to loss of annual livestock operating expenses circulating throughout the economy with a corresponding loss of gross receipts taxes due the state and local governments. There would also be a loss of livestock taxes and inspection fees that keep the NM Livestock Board afloat. Under the WLA proposal, NM taxpayers would be subsidizing large investors for the privilege of buying agricultural land without using it for agriculture and the special use valuation would not offset these losses. I hope everyone had a safe July 4th with family and friends, that you enjoyed the parades, rodeos, and fireworks while not forgetting to celebrate our country’s independence.

uly has started off with a bang… and it wasn’t just the neighbor’s fire crackers going off at after 10:00 p.m. on July 5 in the street in front of my house. In early July a federal judge in Nevada rejected prosecutors’ request to reconsider her dismissal of the conspiracy case against Cliven Bundy, his two sons and Ryan Payne stemming from their 2014 armed standoff with federal agents over cattle grazing near Bunkerville, according to a story by Maxine Bernstein for The Oregonian/OregonLive U.S. District Judge Gloria M. Navarro found prosecutors raised arguments she had already considered. She dismissed their contention that the dismissal of the case with prejudice was “unjust,’’ or that she should have ordered a less severe sanction for their failure to share evidence that could

Bang! assist the defense as required by the 1963 landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Brady v. Maryland. “The Court’s finding of outrageous government conduct was not in error,’’ Navarro wrote in her 11-page ruling. “On the contrary, a universal sense of justice was violated by the Government’s failure to provide evidence that is potentially exculpatory.’’ In a motion urging the judge to reconsider the dismissal, prosecutors reiterated their unsuccessful argument that the evidence they failed to share until too late wouldn’t have been admissible anyway because they didn’t believe the defendants could argue that they acted in self-defense, were provoked or intimidated. But the judge called that argument “out-

rageous’’ and made it clear that the government was not allowed to withhold evidence that would enable the Bundys and Payne to argue they acted in self-defense, or evidence they could use to challenge the charges in their indictment. In fact, her prior order should have placed prosecutors on notice that any evidence that could bolster a theory of self-defense might become relevant at trial, Navarro wrote. “The evidence that the Government failed to disclose, such as the insertion and positioning of snipers and cameras surveilling the Bundy home, is evidence of provocation,’’ Navarro wrote. “The Government’s theory of prosecution relies on the continued on page 16 >>

Burleson was sentenced in 2017 to more than 68 years in prison, found guilty of threatening a federal law enforcement officer, obstruction of justice and interstate travel in aid of extortion. Engel has yet to be sentenced for obstruction of justice and interstate travel in aid of extortion. “I just can’t sit here and say this is OK,’’ Bundy told The Oregonian/OregonLive. “I don’t believe they got a fair trial. The judge probably thinks this is all done because the Bundys went home. But I’m not going to let it be done and forgotten.’’

Stampede’s headquarters is in Bridgeview, Illinois and was founded in 1995. There will be more details on this project in the days to come.

Wolf Tally (dollars I mean) The wolf issue is one that I will probably die working on no matter how far away my demise might be. As I hope you have heard, we are in a howl of a need for funds still or again. The current crisis is two-folds. In April we got a bad decision on the case regarding the new 10J rule. The ruling went totally against us and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS). The court ruled that the agency must go back to the drawing board. There was also some of the ruling that sets a really bad precedent if it stands. The judge

has never issued a final ruling, so the decision on whether or not to appeal doesn’t have to be made yet. There are lots of pros and cons to an appeal. If we don’t the case will apply to all endangered species, not just wolves. If we do appeal it will be in the 9th Circuit Courts of Appeals based in San Francisco. Enough said? The 9th has had more cases overturned than any other appeals court in the country. Rarely have their opinions been favorable to those working the land. However there have been some appointments made by this administration. If I cannot be optimistic, I couldn’t get up in the morning. The other drawback is, of course, the cost. There is an outstanding balance with the Budd-Falen Law Offices from this case which has been going on since early 2015. And, there is a more pressing need before we cross the appeal bridge. In May there was a status conference call between the judge and all the parties in the case. The judge asked the FWS how long it will take them to re-write the rule under the ruling. The answer was 24 to 29 months. The judge was okay with that time frame. However, the radical environmental groups came up with a new ask. While they didn’t

argue the length of time, they had a new wrinkle. They want lots of wolves released while the rule is under rewrite — starting in New Mexico this summer. The judge granted them leave to file a motion to that effect. Initially their brief was due on June 20. They didn’t make that deadline and requested another 30 days to file it. As things sit now, their brief is due on July 20. Any briefs in opposition are now due on August 20. In May the decision needed to be made whether or not to file a brief on this part of the case. The New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association (NMCGA) made an early decision to proceed. It took a little while longer for the Arizona/New Mexico Coalition of Counties (Coalition) to make a decision, but they have come along. Then came the issue of raising the funds to continue and finish the balance. NMCGA had some members and supporters step up to the plate in a big way. Past President and current Chairman of the Litigation Committee Alisa Ogden pledged $5,000 for a match dollar for dollar with anyone donating funds for the cause. Within days, CKP Drought Insurance stepped up with a pledge of an addi-

How to Set Up an Equitable Cow Lease Arrangement One of the best ways for a retiring rancher to transition out of the business and for a young rancher to get started is with a cow lease arrangement. While the specifics will vary depending on the desires of both parties, there are many benefits to both sides of the arrangement. by Harlan Hughes, Beef Magazine

eriodically, I get a phone call asking what would be a fair beef cow lease arrangement. Usually, one partner wants to own the cows and the other partner wants to run the cows. Their question is generally, how should they share the calf crop? Often, the cow owner is a senior rancher looking toward retirement, and the other business partner is a younger rancher wanting to get into the beef cow business. The question they ask me is, how should they set up this business agreement so that it is fair to both parties? A beef cow leasing or sharing agreement allows the two business partners to share the production costs and, in turn, the cow herd’s income. The beauty of a share lease is that the production expenses can be shared in many different ways, as long as the calf crop is shared in the same proportion as the expenses are shared. This, in turn, suggests there should not be one common leasing arrangement across the industry for leasing beef cows. Yet, this is what I tend to run into. Each lease agreement can and should be tailored to the specific business situation at hand. There are some do’s and don’ts in setting up a beef cow lease. First, the lease should run from weaning one year to weaning the next year. The annual leasing agreement should end on the day the calves are weaned. At that time, the calf crop is either sold or divided between the two business partners. Each partner is responsible for his or her share of the calf crop after weaning. Remember, the cow owner gets the cull cow income. If this is to be a perpetual cow herd, the cow owner generally provides the replacement heifers or bred replacement cows. continued on page 55 >>

NEWS UPDATE by Labradoodle Bennington, III

NMSU to Host New Ranch Safety Training at Corona Ranch July 25-26

roviding certified ranch safety training to employees has become a concern for ranchers since the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled in 2016 that excluding agricultural laborers from the Worker’s Compensation Act is unconstitutional. By law the employer must provide a safe work environment and a safety program to ensure employees are trained to do their jobs safely. New Mexico State University’s College of Agricultural, Consumer & Environmental Sciences Cooperative Extension Service has developed a ranch skill and safety series to help ranchers provide that training to their employees. “We have visited with ranchers and they feel with the new ruling on worker’s compensation that there is a need for a safety certification training,” said Marcy Ward, NMSU’s Extension livestock specialist. “We are developing hands-on safety training that will fulfill that need.” The Department of Extension Animal Science and Natural Resources along with NMSU’s Corona Range and Livestock Research Center will host the first event in a series of programs on Wednesday and Thursday, July 25-26, at NMSU’s Corona Ranch. “The program is designed to provide information on animal handling and husbandry, equipment safety and education on other hazards ranchers often face,” said Craig Gifford, NMSU Extension beef specialist. “The series will cover topics relevant to the time of year when certain safety risks of the job are greatest.” Training on the first day will focus on animal handling, fire safety, first aid, ATV/UTV safety and general ranch safety. “Dean Fish from Arizona will provide a demonstration on low stress animal handling and handler safety,” Ward said. “As a former Extension agent and current employee at the Santa Fe Ranch in Arizona, Dean has developed clinics on cattle handling and safety.” Doug Cram, NMSU Extension wildland fire specialist, will address

how to respond to fires on the ranch. “We will have a special webinar in the evening that will provide an interactive discussion with Tylor Braden, area manager for the King Ranch in Texas,” said Gifford. “He will be discussing the characteristics of a successful ranch employee.” The evening event may be attended by persons not attending the daytime programs. Second day topics will focus on animal health with training on safely following veterinary directives and nutrition. “NMSU’s Extension veterinarian John Wenzel will be conducting training about safety while handling pharmaceuticals, animal first aid and safety when implementing animal health programs,” Ward said. “He will also be conducting Beef Quality Assurance training and a test for certification.” Eric Scholljegerdes, NMSU associate professor of ruminant nutrition, will provide training on the basics of protein and energy, feed ingredients, importance of minerals, ration balancing considerations, avoiding metabolic disorders and feeding mistakes and supplementing when and how. Registration fee is $100 for both days, or $50 for individual days, plus a $15 fee for a special evening webinar. Lunches and

breakfast will be provided for participants. Registration deadline is July 17. Online registration is available at nmbeef.nmsu.edu. Limited free Corona Ranch bunkhouse accommodations will be available with two-day registration, including breakfast at 7 a.m. Other overnight accommodations

are available at the motel in Corona. Training certificates will be issued to participants, along with a manual for their ranches that can serve as a resource for future training or for Occupational Safety and Health Administration documentation.

NEW MEXICO FEDERAL LANDS NEWS by Frank Dubois

Bison, wolves, vacant allotments and a straw man

Bison Blues

ecall the Obama administration was supporting a proposal to transfer management of the National Bison Range to the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes. Secretary Zinke put the kibosh

JULY 2018

to that, as it looked too much like a land transfer. “As Secretary, my job is to look 100 years forward at all of Interior’s resources. I recognize the Bison Range as a critical part of our past, present and future, which is why I have changed course.” It turns out this was not a land divestiture at all. Management was to be delegated to the tribes, but the land was to be transferred to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, remaining in federal ownership. As Zinke gazes off into the future, how has the National Bison Range faired under his “changed course”? Not well, according to recent reports. The visitors center is no longer open every day, the bookstore has been closed, a volunteers program has been shut down as has a visitors service program for schools. “Closing a visitor

center on days when hundreds of people are visiting is unprecedented. Denying them access to even basic visitor amenities, like the public bathrooms, is inexplicable,” says one group in a letter to Zinke. Instead of peering off into the future, perhaps the Secretary should open his eyes to the possibility that state and tribal management for some of these lands is a preferred alternative.

has begun reviewing the status of the gray wolf under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Working closely with our federal, state, tribal and local partners, we will assess the currently listed gray wolf entities in the lower 48 states using the best available scientific information. If appropriate, the Service will publish a proposal to revise the wolf’s status in the Federal Register by the end of the calendar year.” Good news, but does it include the Mexican gray wolf? I’m afraid not. In response to an inquiry from me, their spokesman wrote, “It will not. We consider that a separate subspecies.” So it’s Gringo Wolves Sí, Mexican Wolves No. Congratulations to the rest of America, condolences to the Southwest.

Farm Bill

here are an unusual amount of provisions in the House farm bill that deal with federal lands. One of the most interesting was an amendment offered by Rep. Liz Cheney concerning vacant allotments. Her amendment requires the Secretary concerned to make available vacant allotments “to the maximum extent practicable” whenever an allotment owner is prevented from grazing his allotment due to a natural disaster, such as drought or fire, a court-issued injunction, or a conflict with wildlife. Making those allotments available would be categorically excluded from NEPA and would be protected from any court order. Rep. Cheney stated on the House floor that, “livestock producers in Wyoming and across the West have been battling for years against a Federal government that has attempted systematically to reduce grazing allotments on public lands. My amendment,” explained Rep. Cheney, “would simply make available vacant grazing allotments for our producers should their existing allotment become unavailable due to unforeseen circumstances such as wildfire, drought, other natural disasters, or litigation.” It will be interesting to see what the Senate does with this language. There are other provisions in the farm bill dealing with categorical exclusions. In fact, there are a dozen or more instances where Congress is proposing to exempt certain forest management activities from requirements under NEPA to prepare an environmental assessment or an environ-

JULY 2018

mental impact statement. It is pleasant to see these proposals, but I have to wonder why they only go half way. Instead of going through the legislative process of targeting specific agency actions that are exempt from NEPA, why not amend NEPA so that it is a more flexible program that doesn’t hamstring agency action? Exempting specific agency actions is a haphazard process, with some passing and some not passing depending on the year. The fact you have to exempt so many agency actions is proof enough NEPA needs a thorough overhaul. The same goes for vacant allotments. Why are we only making them available for livestock grazing during an emergency? There should be an inventory of vacant allotments so that we know the number and acreage they represent. The agencies should be directed to make these allotments available again unless they have a powerful reason to not make a certain allotment available.

The straw man

ive-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady has recently joined the bogus environmental cause to ban plastic straws. Brady recently made a video for the Be Straw Free campaign, in which he brandishes two plastic straws, declaring, “the effect of these little guys is posing a huge health risk to our planet.” I have never cared for straws myself; they just slow me down. Will banning plastic straws in the U.S. solve the plastic pollution problem? No, it will not. Based on coastal cleanups in Canada, the U.S. and the U.K., only 2 percent to 4 percent of beach litter consists of plastic straws. On a worldwide basis, banning plastic straws in the U.S. and other developed countries would accomplish even less. The majority of plastic waste entering the ocean comes from East Asia. China heads the list, accounting for 28 percent of plastic pollution, followed by Indonesia that contributes 10 percent. By

comparison, the U.S. is responsible for less than 1 percent of global plastic marine waste. It would appear that Tom Brady has been suckered. He should concentrate on scoring in football, rather than whoring for the enviros.

New Agricultural Tip Line Helps Protect Industry

griculture in New Mexico covers a lot of ground, both in what is produced and the large amount of land across the state that is involved and it can be difficult for individual producers or even regulatory agencies to be aware of everything that’s taking place. A new Agricultural Tip Line, which allows anyone to call and report on agricultural issues of concern, will be a useful tool for agricultural producers and agencies and members of the public. By calling 575-646-9191 or 800-6469191, members of the public, neighboring agricultural producers or just someone passing by on the highway can anonymously report information – whatever it is – and know that it will be seen by the appropriate agency. Callers to the tip line will leave a recorded message with their information. That information will then be electronically disseminated, and the appropriate person will take responsibility and respond. Depending on the information, a response could come from several agencies, including the local sheriff, the New Mexico Livestock Board, the New Mexico Department of Agriculture or the Department of Homeland Security. In the event of a livestock disease outbreak or some other biosecurity issue, the Tip Line could also work as a way to get information out to agricultural producers. The Tip Line is not an emergency response line. If someone sees a situation in progress that needs an immediate response – like theft or a bio security threat – they should immediately contact their local law enforcement agency or call 911. The Tip Line is a joint effort of many agricultural groups and agencies, including the New Mexico Department of Agriculture, New Mexico Livestock Board, and the Cooperative Extension service, through New Mexico’s Agri Guard Bio Security program. “New Mexico is one of the better prepared states when it comes to bio security. The

industry works closely with regulatory agencies and we’re trying to be proactive rather than reactive,” said Kelly Hamilton, Bio Security Director for the New Mexico Department of Agriculture. “We’ve all had something to eat and drink today, thanks to agriculture,” he continued. “Without agriculture we will cease to be a society. We recognize it as critical to our survival, and want to do what’s needed to help protect that infrastructure and we’re asking people to open their eyes and ears and help.” Often, people see something that doesn’t look right to them, but don’t know who to contact, either because they are not knowledgeable about the industry, or are unsure about land ownership. By calling the Tip Line, they can help, get the information where it needs to go, and make a difference for their community. “In addition to helping protect our agricultural industries, we hope this will help open lines of communication,” Hamilton noted. “I think this is a wonderful start at interagency cooperation to increase public participation and knowledge sharing about activities including livestock theft,” said Bob Alexander, Executive Director of the New Mexico Livestock Board. “The New Mexico Livestock Board would like to thank Kelly Hamilton for providing the Agricultural Tip Line. We encourage everyone to pass on the information to their friends and associates.”

Surviving U.S. Forest Service & Bureau of Land Mgt. Term Grazing Permit Renewal A Comprehensive Guide For Permittees

by Franklin J. Falen, Budd-Falen Law Offices, LLC

he purpose of this article is to provide a general overview of livestock grazing and permit renewal on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S. Forest Service (FS) lands. There are many nuances in the law and this paper is not intended to cover those. This paper also does not predict the outcome of any individual case. While I am pleased to present this information, should you need additional information on a particular fact situation, please contact my office or your attorney. Although there is a technical difference between “federal” land and “public” land, that distinction is not applicable to this outline. For purposes of this outline, the terms “public lands” and “federal lands” are used interchangeably. I. FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (“FOIA”) The FOIA is the act that gives the citizens the right to access information from the federal government including the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) and Forest Service (“FS”). That includes all information in your grazing permit files, monitoring files and other files related to your use of the federal or public1 lands. It is critically important that all grazing permittees have a copy of their entire agency files and review those files on a periodic basis. It is the information in these agency files that will be used to make decisions about your continued use of your allotments, so if there is information in those files that is

not correct or misleading, you have to take steps to correct that information, before it is used against you. Additionally, FOIA is regularly used by environmental groups and others who want to eliminate your use of your grazing allotments. These groups often produce reports, take pictures and collect “data” that they request be placed in your allotment files and reviewed during your permit renewal process. The federal agencies are not obligated to contact the permittee prior to putting this third-party information in your files, so it is up to each permittee to regularly check their allotment files to ensure that any third-party data placed in the file is accurate and relevant. II. HISTORY OF NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (“NEPA”) COMPLIANCE FOR TERM GRAZING PERMIT RENEWALS A. Statutory Authority for Grazing on the Public/Federal Lands 1. U.S. Forest Service Lands In the mid to late nineteenth century, many forests located on public land were subject to the unregulated commercial cutting of timber. In response to the problem, Congress passed the Creative Act of 1891. The Creative Act allowed the President to reserve forest lands, but did not provide for the regulation or use of such lands. Conservationists opposed the Creative Act’s failure to protect forest lands through regulation, while Western settlers opposed the Act’s failure to provide for any use of the reserves. In response to this backlash, Congress passed the Organic Administration Act (“Organic Act”) in 1897. The Organic Act allowed the President to protect and use forest land by reserving such land for two purposes, “securing favorable conditions of water flows,” and furnishing “a continuous supply of timber.” Legislative history for the Act shows that Congress was concerned with the management of the timber resource and the protection of the streams which a healthy forest produces. Livestock grazing was not addressed in the Organic Act, apparently because Congress did not realize that vast tracts of rangeland would also be reserved as national forests. In fact, despite the clear mandate to reserve “forest” land, the President subsequently reserved over 100 million acres of public rangeland as national forests. Upon reservation, Congress’ open range policy on the forest reserves was eliminated. Initially, the Secretary of the Interior was appointed to manage national forests. Since half of the land in the national forest system was ac-

tually rangeland, which at the time was being used the American people for grazing, the Secretary of the Interior immediately began to adopt policies to recognize and protect existing grazing use. In 1902, the Secretary of the Interior began regulating grazing pursuant to a system of “preference,” with preference for grazing privileges and use being assigned first to ranchers residing within the national forest, then to ranchers with ranches within the national forest but who resided elsewhere, then to ranches outside of but near to the national forest, and lastly to persons not living near the reserve who had some sort of equitable interest in the national forest. In 1905, Congress amended the Organic Act by switching management authority from the Secretary of the Interior to the Secretary of Agriculture. The amendment also stated that the Secretary of Agriculture “shall make provisions for the protection against destruction by fire and depredations upon the public forests and national forests” and “may make such rules and regulations and. . . to regulate their occupancy and use and to preserve the forests thereon from destruction.” That same year, the Secretary met with western livestock industry leaders regarding the Secretary’s development of rules for “occupancy and use” of livestock on Forest Service rangeland. The Secretary of Agriculture promised the ranchers to build on and improve the “preference” system began by the Secretary of the Interior, by protecting “priority of use” based on “the Law of Occupancy and the Prior Appropriations Doctrine,” by making grazing reductions only after “fair notice,” by giving “preference” to small ranchers with “intelligent forest management,” and with rancher input in the form of “advisory boards.” As a result, in 1906, the Secretary codified into regulation “The Use Book.” With regard to livestock grazing, the Use Book states: Applicants for grazing permits will be given preference in the following order. (a) Small near-by owners. Persons living in or close to the reserve whose stock have regularly grazed upon the reserve range and who are dependent upon its use. (b) All other regular occupants of the reserve range. After class (a) applicants have been provided for, the larger near-by owners will be considered, but limited to a number which will not exclude regular occupants whose stock continued on page 42 >>

belong or are wintered at a greater distance to the reserve. (c) Owners of transient stock. The owners of stock which belong at a considerable distance from the reserve and have not regularly occupied the reserve range. Priority in the occupancy and the use of the range and the ownership of improved farming land in or near the reserves will be considered, and the preference will be given to those who have continuously used the range for the longest period. Thus, those with land and homestead ties closest to the national forest held the greatest entitlement to graze therein. Based on the “preference” system created by The Use Book, ranchers could then obtain permits to graze livestock on national forest rangelands. The Use Book’s system of grazing preference became a remarkably stable property right. Nearly 50 years after The Use Book was codified, a United States tax court held that “preference is the dominant element of the [forest service] grazing privileges, and in the absence of contingencies, which may never happen, the grazing permit, as the facts show as true in this case, and renewals thereof follow the preference as a matter of course.” The court continued: That the grazing of livestock on the national forests is to be regarded as a substantial, well-established, and indefinitely continuing part of the national forests program, is not, according to our reading of the grazing regulations and the Forest Service Manual, open to question. In fact, along with the declared purpose of perpetuating the organic resources on both the national forests and related lands, another of the “leading objects” of the said program is the “stabilization of that part of the livestock industry, which makes use of the national forests;” and along with and in promotion of such stabilization is the declared purpose of protecting the “established ranch owner and home builder against unfair competition in the use of the range.” The word “‘stabilization” is from the word “stabilize,” which means to make stable, and stable, in turn, means firmly established, constant, durable, permanent. Studied in the light of these purposes and objectives, it seems to us abundantly clear that the statute and the regulations contemplate that once the right to a fair and just allotment of

to state that grazing permits would show the “permitted use” of the range. Under those regulations, “[p]ermitted use means the forage allocated by, or under the guidance of, an applicable land use plan for livestock grazing in an allotment under a permit or lease and is expressed in AUMs.” 43 C.F.R. § 4100.0-5 (1998). Whether described as a preference right or permitted use, the TGA refers to the combination of public range and private property as a “grazing unit.” Once the preference right (or permitted use) established who is entitled to receive grazing privileges and what share of the public grazing resource will be allocated to each, the Secretary is to determine under what terms and conditions grazing will be allowed. The Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (“FLPMA”) mandates that the Secretary must manage public lands under the principal of “multiple use and sustained yield . . . .” Therefore, land within grazing districts should “be managed for many purposes in addition to grazing . . . .” These “many purposes” are to be coordinated through resource management plans or “land use plans.” Typically land use plans (“LUPs”) are created for grazing districts or parts thereof. LUPs are major federal actions requiring NEPA documentation. 43 C.F.R. § 1601.0-6. LUPs are to be created with extensive public, state and local government and Indian tribe participation, input and comment. Once a LUP is created, the Secretary must manage the lands according to the terms and conditions in the Plan. The terms and conditions of a grazing permit must be consistent with the direction in the applicable LUP. Allotment management plans (“AMPs”) are also created according to the dictates of a LUP. An AMP describes how grazing will be conducted within a grazing district with respect to an individual livestock operation. The terms and conditions of an AMP are made part of the terms and conditions of the grazing permit. Thus, because the terms and conditions described in a LUP have been thoroughly reviewed pursuant to NEPA and other environmental statutes, grazing permits and AMPs consistent with the applicable land use plan should also be consistent with the procedures and process in NEPA. The development of an AMP is not mandatory. Grazing can occur simply based upon the issuance of a grazing permit.

preference right of the permittees to renewal in the discretion of the Secretary of the Interior.” Consistent with this provision, the FLPMA states: Grazing permits and leases may be issued by the BLM for a period of shorter than ten years only when the Secretary determines that: “it will be in the best interest of sound land management to specify a shorter term: Provided, That the absence from an allotment management plan of details the Secretary concerned would like to include but which are undeveloped shall not be the basis for establishing a term shorter than ten years: Provided further, That the absence of completed land use plans or court ordered environmental statements shall not be the sole basis for establishing the term shorter than ten years unless the Secretary determines on a case-by-case basis that the information to be contained in such land use plan or court ordered environmental impact statement is necessary to determine whether a shorter term should be established for any of the reasons set forth in items (1) through (3) of this subsection.” In 2014, the Congress passed and President signed a Defense Spending bill which included a provision allowing term grazing permits to be increased from a 10 to 20 year term at the discretion of the Secretary involved. The purpose of issuing a permit for a set period of time (typically ten years) is not to determine whether grazing should continue once the permit expires, but to provide for a periodic review of the terms and conditions thereof. “The mandatory renewal process contemplates that the substance of the grazing privilege, as opposed to the preference right of renewal, is to be periodically adjusted in accordance with the condition of the rangeland.” Therefore, provided that the permit holder is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the expiring permit and is willing to accept the terms and conditions of the new permit (subject to his appeal rights), the timely renewal of a grazing permit is not discretionary, it is mandatory. B. NEPA Compliance for BLM and Forest Service Term Permit Renewal Although at this point, the application of NEPA to individual term grazing permit renewals has been a BLM and FS policy for

so long that it would be difficult to legally challenge; no court has ever specifically held that NEPA applies to a renewal of a term grazing permit. Rather, without the benefit of a federal court mandate or change in the statutes, in 1998 the BLM adopted a policy stating that

The BLM did not challenge that finding to the IBLA, thus, based upon the BLM’s admission that grazing in this case was degrading the environment, the IBLA found NEPA compliance was necessary. Second, the IBLA relied on the fact that (1) NEPA applies to permit renewals and the resource management plan in that case transfers, did not contain a site-specific discussion (2) permittees will not be allowed to turn regarding grazing in this area.

term permit renewal that did not consider the connected action of oil and gas development on the allotment in the context of the sage grouse. Although I would argue that not every action within a locality is a “cumulative effect” or a “connected action,” certainly if there are other completed or proposed EAs or EISs within the same area as the allotment under consideration, those connected actions should be considered by the federal agencies as well.

III. NEPA A. Purpose of NEPA NEPA was adopted by Congress and signed by President Nixon in 1969 to (1) ensure that the federal agencies consider the consequences of their actions and (2) to involve the public in federal agency decisions. NEPA requires that the environmental impacts of all federal agency actions be considered prior to issuing a decision. Further NEPA states that, if there are either beneficial or detrimental environmental impacts, that the “custom and culture of the local citizens and economic consequences of such agency actions are also considered. All courts have proclaimed that NEPA is a “procedural statute” only and that NEPA does not demand any particular outcome. Of course that does not mean that NEPA is not often “misused” to try to achieve a particular outcome. A significant number of cases have held that once litigation is filed, the courts can temporarily enjoin (stop) an action until the merits of the case are decided. For resource users, if a project is enjoined, it can effectively kill the project because you are not allowed to implement the project until the court finally rules (which often can take a year or more). By that time, project funding is often lost, or, if cattle are removed from the allotment, they will be sold because there are no other options for the permittee. Even if no NEPA violation is found in the end by the Court or it is a ministerial violation that can be easily fixed, it can still be a loss for the project if the significant delay has eliminated the project altogether.

Another area that seems to be litigated is whether the federal agency adequately explained why it did not analyze a particular alternative or particular action. The courts do not require the agencies to consider every possible scenario or alternative imaginable in the completion of a NEPA document, but if something is considered and rejected, the NEPA document must explain the rationale.

a. Direct and indirect effects, cumulative impacts and connected actions – Courts have held that the federal agencies have to consider direct and indirect effects, cumulative impacts and connected actions in the NEPA process. For example, in a recent case in Wyoming, the IBLA held that the BLM erred in completing an EA for grazing

JULY 2018

c. Failure to collect all possible data – It is often argued during the course of litigation over the sufficiency of the NEPA document that the agency failed to gather or analyze all possible data or other scientific or expert information. Like the decision not to analyze a particular alternative, as long as the federal agency identifies any data gaps and explains why it is not filling those gaps, the courts normally defer to the agency. It is when the agency identifies a data gap and fails to either fill the gap or explain why that is not necessary that the courts will reject the NEPA analysis.

B. NEPA Form 1. The most common forms of NEPA are an environmental assessment (“EA”) or an environmental impact statement (“EIS”). An EIS or EA generally requires environmental consideration of the proposed action, alternatives to the proposed action, mitigation for any adverse environmental consequences and public participation.

b. Failure to adequately explain why the agency did not analyze an alternative(s) –

d. “No action” alternative versus “no grazing” alternative – The courts often state that the alternatives analysis is the heart of the NEPA document. The purpose of the alternatives analysis it to compare various scenarios against the “no action” alternative to predict the environmental consequences. One area of major disagreement between the environmental community and the ranching community is the status quo or “no action” alternative. Because these are “grazing lands” as defined by the statutes, we believe that the “no action”

alternative or “status quo” is continued grazing. Environmental groups, on the other hand, argue that because the grazing permit has expired, grazing should not be allowed, therefore the “no action” alternative is no grazing. The “no action” alternative is the status quo. The determination of the “no action” alternative is important because, again, it is against the “no action” alternative that the other alternatives are compared. Permittees should work to ensure the proper consideration of the grazing status quo. 2. A third form of NEPA important to grazing permittees is a categorical exclusion (“CX”). Both Forest Service and the BLM, based on a July 15, 2015 Instruction Memorandum (IM 2015-121), can document term grazing permit renewal with a CX. a. The use of a CX for term permit renewal is discretionary. However, each permittee should strongly encourage their respective federal agency to use a CX for term permit renewal if your permit fits the criteria. b. The criteria for a CX include a requirement that (1) the monitoring data and evaluation for rangeland heath determinations show that the allotment is meeting all standards, or that if the allotment is not meeting standards, livestock grazing is not the causal factor; (2) the allotment does not contain any “extraordinary circumstances” that would make it ineligible for a CX; (3) compliance with the Endangered Species Act (including section 7 consultation) is met; and (4) the term permit is bring renewed or transferred under substantially the same terms and conditions as the prior term permit. IV. ADMINISTRATIVE APPEALS A. FS Administrative Appeals Process Applied to Term Grazing Permits 1. Appeal process Forest Service decisions are decided by the next higher line officer. Thus, if you receive a decision from the district ranger, your appeal is to the forest supervisor. If the decision you want to appeal was issued by the forest supervisor, the appeal is to the regional forester. 2. Appeal contents

a. Grazing permittees who want to appeal a decision regarding their term permit are bound by the procedures at 36 C.F.R. Part 214. Under that process, a permittee has 45 days from the date of the decision to file a notice of appeal and statement of reasons. In addition to the general filing requirements in 36 C.F.R. § 214.8, the notice of appeal and statement of reasons have to contain all of the legal, technical, monitoring, practical and/or scientific reasons that the decision is in error. While this does not have to be a “legal brief,” any evidence that you have of a legal or technical nature has to be included in the notice of appeal and statement of reasons, including any range monitoring or other data. Additionally, if you are interested in making an oral presentation to the deciding officer or qualify for the mediation program, you have to make those requests in the notice of appeal and statement of reasons.

grazing permit or any of the terms and conditions in a term grazing permit. These ALJ’s are part of the Department of the Interior’s (“DOI”) Office of Hearings and Appeals (“OHA”) which was created in the 1970s.

B. BLM Administrative Appeals Process This is a very general description of the BLM administrative appeals process and is not intended to be a substitute for hiring legal counsel or strictly complying with the BLM regulations. Additionally, the BLM has other appeal processes for challenges to land use plans and other types of BLM decisions which are not described in this document. 1. Appeal Process a. The Department of the Interior allows for a permittee or environmental group to participate in an evidentiar y proceeding before an administrative law judge (“ALJ”) when challenging the renewal of a term

c. Notices of appeal and statements of reason are filed with the BLM district or area officer who signed the proposed or final decision. That BLM officer then forwards the appeal to the OHA for assignment to an ALJ. The notice of appeal has to be accompanied with a statement of reasons (although you can also request an additional 30 days to file the statement or reasons if a timely notice of appeal is filed). Like FS statement of reasons, the BLM statement of reasons has to contain all of the points that the appellant wishes to challenge. If you do not raise a particular point in the statement of reasons, it is deemed waived.

2. Although you will normally “lose” if the case turns on a “battle of the experts” and you are trying to pit your expert against the expert in an agency, there are ways to eliminate that deference and equalize the playing field. Specifically courts (including the IBLA) have held that if (1) the agency is not completing the right kind of study to get the information it seeks, (2) the study is incorrectly completed on the ground or (3) the data does not support the agency’s conclusion, deference is no longer afforded to an agency’s expert determination. Once that deference is eliminated, the opinion of your expert will be given equal weight to that of the agency’s.

2. Evidentiary hearing and further appeal – a. ALJs hold evidentiary-type hearings. That means that the appellant gets to put on witnesses and cross examine the opposing witnesses from the BLM or intervening party. Expert testimony can be offered as well as exhibits and other information. On the basis of that hearing, the ALJ will issue his decision. b. If any party is not happy with the ALJ decision, they can appeal to the Interior Board of Land Appeals (“IBLA”). The IBLA acts as an appellate board like a circuit court would for a district court. The IBLA speaks for the Secretary of the Interior. If the BLM loses before the IBLA, it cannot challenge the decision to a federal district court; if the permittee or environmental

C. Challenging Agency Scientific or Expert Opinions 1. “Chevron Deference” - In 1984, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an opinion in Chevron U.S.A. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, 467 U.S. 837 (1984) which fundamentally changed the way that the courts view federal agency administrative decisions. According to that case, courts should generally defer to agency interpretations of statute, as well as the scientific expertise of the administrative agency. As a practical matter, for the permittee it means that if your appeal or litigation turns on an interpretation of administrative law or on a scientific or factual determination, the courts will defer to the administrative agency’s decision.

b. Related to a grazing permit renewal, the process is for the BLM to issue the decision as a “proposed decision.” The appellant can either elect to file a protest within 15 days, which the BLM is required to consider prior to issuing a final decision. After consideration of the protest, the BLM will issue a final decision, which has to be appealed within 30 days. On the other hand, an appellant can allow the protest period to run, which allows the proposed decision to become a final decision automatically. The appellant then has 30 days from the date of the final decision to file an appeal.

b. Once your notice of appeal is filed, the deciding officer has a chance to file a responsive statement. That statement will contain all of his legal reasons and evidence supporting his decision. The permittee will then have a chance to file a reply. c. There is no evidentiary hearing in the Forest Service appeals process, although if the permittee believes it would be helpful, he can request an “oral presentation.” Oral presentations give the permittee a chance to more thoroughly explain your issues or answer any questions of the reviewing officer.

group loses an appeal before the IBLA, they can proceed to federal district court if they so choose.

D. General Requirements before proceeding to Federal Court 1. Administrative Record - Whether the permittee is dealing with Forest Service or BLM, the administrative appeals process in the ONLY place where a permittee can ensure that all information that the federal court should consider can be added to the record. Federal courts ONLY review the information that was presented in the administrative appeals process, so it is important that you fully participate in the administrative appeal. No additional data, scientific information or analysis or other information can be added once a federal court case has been filed. 2. Exhaustion - Federal courts also JULY 2018

require that administrative appeals be exhausted prior to proceeding to federal court. That means that neither the permittee nor the environmental group challenging a term grazing permit decision can go straight to court without going through the administrative appeals process first. 3. Exception to Exhaustion Requirement - One exception to the requirement that a permittee or appellant has to exhaust administrative remedies by administratively appealing a decision is a challenge to the Annual Operating Plan (“AOP”) or Annual Operating Instructions (“AOI”) to a permittee. Although both the BLM and FS state that AOIs and AOPs are not “appealable,” that only applies to the agency administrative processes. Both the Ninth Circuit Court and the Tenth Circuit Court have held that AOIs and AOPs can be challenged in federal court by both environmental groups and the permittees themselves. 4. Issue Preclusion - Finally, all issues that may be raised, have to be raised in the administrative appeals process. In other words, a new issue cannot be introduced to the federal court that was not considered in the administrative appeals process.

Cowboys & Grassmen

by Dave Pratt, ranchmanagement.com

once heard Bud Williams say, “Ranchers love their cows and hate their grass.” Bud thought they had it backwards. They should love their grass and hate their cattle. I know that Bud didn’t really hate cattle or think that anyone else ought to hate them, but his point was that for a livestock business to be profitable, it must be a grass business first. Ranchers often talk about utilization. I’ve even seen phrases like “… to make efficient use of our forage resource” incorporated into mission statements describing the purpose of ranch businesses. That’s fine, but doesn’t it seem like we ought to place at least as much emphasis on efficiently growing grass as we do on using it? It’s almost as though we don’t care how much we grow as long as it gets used efficiently. Tactics that increase the efficient use of forages include shortening graze periods, increasing stock density and matching the number and type of animals to the resource. But these tactics are unlikely to significantly affect the amount of grass we grow. Providing adequate recovery for plants after

grazing is the single biggest factor affecting pasture and range productivity. Not providing enough recovery is the single biggest problem in grazing management. A second factor reducing productivity is grazing pastures too severely during the growing season. Leaving plenty of leaves on plants reduces the recovery period plants need and maximizes plant growth after grazing. Leaving plenty of cover on the soil improves water penetration and increases the soil’s moisture holding capacity, which extends the growing season and increases productivity. Unfortunately, when we focus on “efficient utilization” a lot of us graze pastures too severely, taking too many leaves and removing too much cover, reducing our overall productivity. It is understandable that our focus tends to be more on the animals than the grass. After all, we call ourselves cattlemen and cowboys, not grassguys and foragefolks. But we’d be much healthier economically and ecologically if we would focus on growing abundant forage before we worry about how efficiently our animals will use that forage. If you want to separate the men from the boys in the ranching business, you’ll find that the most profitable ranchers are g r a s s m e n f i r s t a n d cow b oy s second.

louder because their “truth” is not reality. They’re the furthest removed and have never worked on a farm a day in their lives. Laws have been put into place to protect farmers from them, and it seems as though getting on a farm is sometimes harder than getting into the hottest clubs in Hollywood! From firsthand experience it’s not because farmers have anything to hide, it’s just the fear brought forth from activist groups that have made them scared to tell their stories. Too often we hear about farms being raided by activists and animals being stolen or vandalism taking place. America’s farmers work where they live and have to protect their families, and so many words can be twisted to suit an agenda. There are biosecurity efforts to prevent disease and systems in place to protect their well being. These are family farmers who are parents, grandparents, and human beings who care just like you and me. They’re not faceless corporations, they’re real people who care about these animals every day. Guys, enough is enough. The term “factory farm” originally came about in the ‘70s to make farmers sound more business-like. After all, factories are places with quality assurance and systems in place to make businesses more efficient and profitable with properly trained employees to make a quality product. Since then, activists have hijacked the term. We have to do a better job of speaking up and take back the narrative. When I travel to different conferences and speak with executives in our industry I’m always saying the same thing: We need to get celebrities on real working farms. We have to stop being afraid. Larger scale farms need to open their barn doors in a fun, humorous, and interesting mainstream way. Any rancher or farmer can do a great job raising livestock efficiently and humanely, regardless of size, marketing tactic, or label. Michelle Miller, the Farm Babe, is an Iowa-based farmer, public speaker, and writer, who lives and works with her boyfriend on their farm, which consists of row crops, beef cattle, and sheep. She believes education is key in bridging the gap between farmers and consumers.

President Trump Grants Clemency for Dwight & Steven Hammond

n July 10, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed Executive Grants of Clemency (Full Pardons) for Dwight Lincoln Hammond, Jr., and his son, Steven Hammond. The Hammonds are multi-generation cattle ranchers in Oregon imprisoned in connection with a fire that leaked onto a small portion of neighboring public grazing land. The evidence at trial regarding the Hammonds’ responsibility for the fire was conflicting, and the jury acquitted them on most of the charges. At the Hammonds’ original sentencing, the judge noted that they are respected in the community and that imposing the mandatory minimum, 5-year prison sentence would “shock the conscience” and be “grossly disproportionate to the severity” of their conduct. As a result, the judge imposed significantly lesser sentences. The previous administration, however, filed an overzealous appeal that resulted in the Hammonds being sentenced to five years in prison. This was unjust. Dwight Hammond is now 76 years old and has served approximately three years in prison. Steven Hammond is 49 and has served approximately four years in prison. They have also paid $400,000 to the United States to settle a related civil suit. The Hammonds are devoted family men, respected contributors to their local community, and have widespread support from their neighbors, local law enforcement, and farmers and ranchers across the West. Justice is overdue for Dwight and Steven Hammond, both of whom are entirely deserving of these Grants of Executive Clemency.

Dart Decisions

by John Maday, editor, Bovine Vet Online

ring up the topic of medicated darts among a group of cattle producers and veterinarians and you’ll hear a range of strong opinions. Opponents maintain that darts, or “remote delivery devices” (RDD) as manufacturers call them, should rarely, if ever, be used to treat cattle with antibiotics. They site potential problems including hitting an inappropriate injection site, injecting the wrong tissue such as into a muscle or vein instead of subcutaneous, inconsistent dosage that could contribute to antibiotic resistance, safety and other concerns. Proponents stress that RDD can offer convenience and protect animal welfare, allowing treatment in remote pastures where capturing, restraining and/or transporting an animal for hand injection can create additional stress. For detailed background on the topic, read “Dart or No Dart” in the September 2016 issue of Bovine Veterinarian. Over the past few years, much of the argument on either side has drawn primarily on anecdotal evidence, as research data remains scarce. Two recent reports add to the knowledge base, but with somewhat conflicting results, will not definitively end the debate. Results of one recent study, led by Dr. David Bechtol and the Agri Research Center, Canyon, Texas, indicate producers can, with the appropriate equipment, consistently deliver subcutaneous injections with RDD with results similar to hand injections. For this test, the researchers used saline

injections with food-grade blue dye for visual documentation of distribution of the injected solution. All injections were in the BQA-approved injection sites in the neck. The team used 48 Angus-cross feedyard steers, with each receiving two different subcutaneous injection treatments to either side of the neck. The researchers compared injections using:

a hand syringe injection if the hand syringe is administered with proper care. In contrast, a study from Kansas State University’s Beef Cattle Institute led by Dr. Hans Coetzee, found inconsistencies. In this study, researchers used RDD to inject cattle with Draxxin (tulathroymycin). Of 15 animals treated using RDD, for of the darts failed to deliver the drug. In other cases, researchers found trace amounts of the drug in the animals, but not at efficacious ЇЇ An industry-standard ½-inch 16-gauge needle for hand injection. levels.

COW LEASE << continued from page 30 Even though you may want to, DO NOT put the replacement heifer development inside the cow lease. This just does not work and can quickly lead to disagreement — and even a lawsuit. Replacement heifers actually work best if they are developed by a third party, and the cow owner pays the development costs and then transfers the preg-checked heifers into the mature breeding herd just after weaning time each year.

Making the transition Leasing a cow herd to another rancher is a nice way for the senior rancher to transition out of the cow business — especially from an income tax standpoint. It is also a good way for a young rancher to get started with a beef cow herd. In this case, the working rancher might develop the replacement heifers each year, and these new cows are all his and are kept out of the lease. Now, the cow owner gets the cull income from only the original leased cows. The working rancher gets the cull income from the replacement heifers when they are eventually culled from the herd. After seven or eight years, the complete herd has been transferred to the working rancher. The cow owner has sold his cow herd over seven or eight tax years, and the working rancher has bought his herd over a seven- or eight-year investment period.

Making it work Let’s take a detailed look at this proposed joint business venture and see how these two business partners might go about setting up an “equitable” agreement: i.e., how they will share the production expenses and total income generated from the leased cow herd. I argue that an equitable beef cow lease agreement is one where the two business partners share the calf crop from the beef cow herd in the same proportion that they share the production expenses. So now, let’s determine how the production expenses will be shared. One business partner will be designated the cow owner; the other business partner, the working rancher. I then suggest that these two partners construct a detailed, annual full-cost budget for running that beef cow herd. A full-cost annual budget includes all normal annual production expenses such as feed, vet costs, etc., and also includes the

cost of the investment capital, all labor costs and a management charge. This full-cost budget should have five columns: ЇЇ ЇЇ ЇЇ ЇЇ ЇЇ

List of individual production factors List of quantities associated with each production factor Total dollar cost associated with each production factor A column labeled “cow owner” A column labeled “working rancher”

This special budget will be used to allocate each production expense to each business partner. Each production resource should be valued at its fair market price. Figure 1 presents my example cow leasing budget. The figures are my estimates; your figures will likely be different. Winter feed costs are projected to be $161 per cow, and all of that cost is to be allocated to the working rancher. All pasture costs are also allocated to the working rancher. On the other hand, the cow owner agrees to pay all vet and medicine costs. The working rancher agrees to give the vaccination shots to all the animals as part of his labor.

costs, while this working rancher is scheduled to contribute 67 percent of the production costs. This, then, suggests the calf crop should be shared 33 percent to the cow owner and 67 percent to the working rancher. Remember, in addition to getting 33 percent of the calf crop, the cow owner also gets the cull cow income. Once the cull cow income is added back in, the cow owner, in this example, is projected to get 41 percent of the gross income generated in this cow lease enterprise.

Let me summarize: ЇЇ

ЇЇ

Share gross, costs proportionally Since this is to be a perpetual beef cow herd, the cow owner agrees to furnish all replacement heifers and the replacement bulls. The agreed-upon labor of eight hours per cow is all provided by the working rancher. Management charge is agreed to be 5 percent of gross, with 10 percent to the cow owner and 90 percent to the working rancher. If the columns are added up, the cow owner contributes 33 percent of production

ЇЇ

First, these agreements should be in writing, with the written contract clearly identifying all the agreed-upon specifics. Second, be sure to cover all production costs, identify expected death losses and establish associated penalties on the part of both parties for excess open cows; and excess death loss of cows, bulls, and/or calves. Specify exactly how the business agreement is to be terminated. It is a lot easier to work out the details before the agreement is signed than to work out a termination agreement after an emergency or disagreement occurs. Third, any two parties can enter into any legal agreement that both parties agree to, even if it is not equitable. Both parties should have their lawyer review the final draft before either party signs the agreement.

Immunity produced by the use of blackleg vaccines did not develop for three to 10 days after injection, but protective immunity existed for a significant duration. Early vaccination minimized losses from blackleg. Production issues meant the efficacy of some vaccines remained questionable. Losses prior to routine vaccination of livestock ranged from three to 25 per cent of all young cattle in many districts in the west and southwest. Losses following vaccination with even older blackleg vaccines were less than one in 10,000.

In the words of an early Kansas cattleman, “The course of the cattle industry has been long and difficult. With the scourge of blackleg under control, its survival remains.”

Senator Proposes More State Control of Endangered Species Act Senator Barrasso, Wyoming, unveiled draft legislation to amend one of the nation’s bedrock environmental laws. by Bill Lucia, Senior Reporter, www.routefifty.com

n early July a Wyoming senator proposed allowing for states to take on a bigger role in carrying out the nation’s main law for protecting plants and animals that are at risk of extinction. U.S. Senator John Barrasso, chairman of the Senate Environment & Public Works Committee, released draft legislation that would modify and reauthorize the Endangered Species Act. The proposal drew a swift rebuke from at least two major conservation groups, who say states are ill-equipped for the responsibilities it would afford them. But Barrasso said the legislation would increase state and local input and improve transparency, while promoting the recovery of species and helping economies thrive. “The status quo is not good enough,” he said in a statement. The senator’s bill is a “discussion draft” and has not yet been formally introduced. It broadly aligns with recommendations for overhauling the Endangered Species Act that the Western Governors’ Association has worked to develop in recent years. This effort was spearheaded by Wyoming Governor Matt Mead. Barrasso, who is running for re-election this year, said he worked closely with the western governors in coming up with the bill draft. The senator’s proposal comes at a time when the Trump administration and other GOP members of Congress are pushing for a range of deregulatory policy changes. “We had an idea this was coming,” Stephanie Kurose, an endangered species policy specialist at the Center for Biological Diver-

sity, said of the draft legislation. “It’s pretty bad.” “It gives states much greater authority to implement the act, which may sound somewhat neutral at first, but is actually incredibly dangerous,” she added. “In many instances, states do not have the resources, or the political will, to conserve species that are going extinct.” Bob Dreher, senior vice president of conservation programs at Defenders of Wildlife, said that in some cases states can take an interest in blocking species conservation efforts. “This gives them the power to do it,” he added. The Endangered Species Act was enacted in 1973 and in the years since has proven to be a lightning rod statute, often pitting commercial interests against supporters of protecting habitat. Projects like highways, dams, and pipelines can require approvals under the law. “A Congressional Research Service report from 2016 notes that the law has “become a surrogate battleground in debates whose primary focus is the allocation of scarce or diminishing lands, waters, or resources.” These debates can often rage hot in western states with significant oil and gas production, logging and agriculture sectors. Species determined to be at risk under the Endangered Species Act are “listed” as either “endangered,” or “threatened”—the less dire of the two designations. Animals protected by the law include polar bears, the northern spotted owl and some salmon. As of 2016, there were 1,593 species listed that are found in the U.S. or its territories. Of those, 1,156 were plants and the other 437 were animals. Some critics have charged that the law has been a failure because so many of the species that it is designed to protect remain listed. But backers cite recoveries of species like bald eagles, humpback whales, and Channel Island foxes as evidence the law is working. Many of the changes Barrasso’s bill proposes have to do with the complex mechanics of how the Endangered Species Act is implemented. For instance, it would provide willing states an option to take on a leading role in “recovery teams” guiding efforts to revitalize a species. In these circumstances, federal officials on the team could not exceed the number of state and local officials nominated by governors, and the majority of the team members would have to agree on “appro-

priately qualified” scientists to join them in their work. Leaders of the Western Governors’ Association, including Hawaii Gov. David Ige, a Democrat and the current chair of the organization, said in a letter to Barrasso, sent in February, that they support the idea of letting states lead recovery teams if they choose to do so. Elsewhere, the bill specifies that comments submitted by states to the Secretary of the Interior about certain Endangered Species Act issues should be afforded greater weight than comments submitted by individuals, or other entities. “Kurose pointed to language she said would delay court challenges against decisions to “delist” species, a step which removes their endangered or threatened status. And Dreher said a part of the bill he was troubled by would require recovery goals for species to be set when the species is listed. This is problematic, he said, because it can take years for scientists to define a recovery plan, even after it is clear a plant or animal is at risk. Dreher also raised questions about a section that would invite states to offer feedback on the performance of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service officials overseeing the Endangered Species Act. A spokesperson for the Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies, which counts state wildlife, fish and game, and natural resources departments among its members, said the group was reviewing the bill and unable to immediately comment. David Willms, a policy advisor in Mead’s office, highlighted situations Wyoming has encountered with the law involving gray wolves, grizzly bears and the sage grouse—a bird not listed following an intensive effort by states and others to come up with a plan to protect it. In the Wyoming region, according to Willms, the recovery objectives for gray wolves were achieved in the early 2000s. But the animal was not finally delisted until last year in the state. “If you have a recovered species, then there should be a mechanism for being able to delist that species and get them back into state control, as long as you obviously have the reasonable safeguards in place,” he said. “The ESA is meant to be the place where species that are on the brink of not being with us anymore go to be saved from extinction,” Willms added. “It’s not meant to be this place to hold all wildlife.”

“There’s not funding to protect all wildlife there.” Willms pushed back on the idea that Barrasso’s legislation would undermine federal authority in carrying out the law, saying that state actions would still be subject to approval by the Interior Secretary. “They need help,” Willms said of federal authorities. “This is one way of providing an opportunity for that help, to allow states to step in and take the lead on some of these things.” But Dreher argues the best way to improve outcomes under the Endangered Species Act is to beef up funding for the federal agencies that oversee the law. “It d o e s n ’ t n e e d to b e f i xe d o r improved,” he said. “What it really needs is more resources, and more effort, and more commitment. And that’s the hard part,” Dreher added. “It’s a lot easier to write bills like this that talk about who gets to sit where at the table.”

NEW MEXICO’S OLD TIMES & OLD TIMERS

Doña Ana County

by Don Bullis, New Mexico Author DonBullis.biz

he area that came to be called Doña Ana County, New Mexico, was first settled by Spaniards not long after the turn of the century in 1801, although those early settlers were obliged to leave because of on-going Apache Indian depredations. In 1822, not long after Mexican independence from Spain, another group of people tried to settle there, and again they were forced out by Apaches. In 1839, José María Costales led a group of settlers who moved onto a site some distance north of the original settlement. There has long been a dispute as to exactly whence came the county’s name. Historian Gordon Owen wrote this: “The site selected had been known as the Doña Ana paraje [campground] to travelers for more than two centuries. Various folk tales explain the place name Doña Ana. A legendary woman widely known but

remembered simply as Doña Ana, was reported to have operated a large ranch in the area in the seventeenth century and to have been outstanding for her charity and good deeds…. Another legend reported that Ana, the daughter of a Spanish army officer, had been carried off by Apaches and never seen again, and the site of her kidnapping was named in her memory. A 1693 letter to the Mexican viceroy referred to a sheep ranch of Doña Ana Maria Niña de Cordoba. Still another explanation reported that a child named Doña Ana was buried at a site marked by a wooden cross near present day Doña Ana in 1798.” Possibly the most documented legend asserted that the area was named for Ana Robledo, granddaughter of Pedro Robledo. He was the first adult fatality in New Mexico of Oñate’s 1598 entrada. Doña Ana Robledo was a member of the band of refugees who fled south

from Santa Fe during the 1680 Pueblo Revolt. “When she viewed the site of her grandfather’s death…she was so anguished that she died and was buried near the present-day village [of Doña Ana].” The official entry in the New Mexico Centennial Blue Book offers this: “Doña Ana is reputed to be named for legendary Doña Ana Robledo, who was renowned for her charitable acts in the 17th century.” Doña Ana was one of the first nine counties created in 1852 after the Compromise of 1850 conferred territorial status on New Mexico. The county was expanded to the south with the approval of the Gadsden Purchase of 1853. The first County seat was located at Doña Ana but subsequently moved to Mesilla before it was settled in Las Cruces by the middle 1850s. Historian Marc Simmons reported that the Doña Ana County limits were redefined

some 17 times, mostly during the last half of the 19th century. Among the many famous residents of Doña Ana County was Colonel Albert Jennings Fountain. He is best known for the mysterious circumstances that surround his disappearance. He and his son, Henry, while en route from Lincoln to Mesilla, dropped off the face of the earth on or about Feb. 1, 1896, at a place called the Chalk Hills, near White Sands. No trace of either body has ever been found in spite of the fact that famed Doña Ana County Sheriff Pat Garrett investigated the matter at great length. In Fountain’s lifetime, though, he did much. His biographer wrote: “Between his reported birth date [on Staten Island, New York] in 1838 and 1861, there are twenty-three years—a time span in which a man’s life is hardly begun. Yet…this man did more in twenty-three years than most men do in several lifetimes.” Fountain lived in New Mexico and Texas after 1861. He was a soldier, lawyer, legislator, newspaperman, actor, and prosecutor for the livestock association. Many believe he and young Henry were killed by rancher Oliver Lee and a couple of his henchmen. Lee was defended by noted attorneys and political figures Albert Bacon Fall and Harvey Fergusson when he was tried at Hillsboro, New Mexico, in 1899 for the murder of young Henry. He was acquitted and one else was ever charged in the matter. Pat Garrett himself was murdered in Doña Ana County, between Las Cruces and Organ, on February 29, 1908.

Superheroes Battle “Veganism” in the U.K. by Lisa M. Keefe, meatingplace.com

ritish meat processor ABP Food Group has rolled out a line of burgers and sausages based on Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, intended to appeal to kids and steer them away from embracing vegan diets, according to a report in the London-based The Telegraph newspaper. The line is being rolled out in Asda supermarkets from now to the end of the calendar year. The product line is the result of a licensing deal struck between ABP and Warner Bros to create “childfriendly” superhero-themed sausages

and burgers, the report said. Flavors include pork and baked beans and pork, cheese and ketchup. The burgers also are formed into the shape of each superhero’s logo. The new offerings will “create excitement for meat products in younger consumers,” ABP said. They point “to a new direction for the sector’s major players as they seek to attract new shoppers.” The number of Brits describing themselves as vegetarian or vegan has “exploded,” The Telegraph reported, particularly among young people who take issue with conventionally grown meat f o r m o r a l o r e nv i r o n m e n t a l reasons.

VIEW FROM THE BACKSIDE by Barry Denton

A Little Hoss Training

ou just never know where you might end up, but here I am giving riding lessons each week to clients that want to achieve more with their horses. Some of our clients come from ranching backgrounds while others just love the western lifestyle and want to embrace it. My wife Laurel and I train working cow horses, ranch riding horses, and reining horses to show in American Quarter Horse Association and National Reined Cow Horse Association sanctioned horse shows across the Southwest. At the same time we manage our cow ranch as well. Most of the time this is a very fun endeavor. The best part of it is that we are surrounded by nice people that are honest and are easy to do business with. Like many others in our business we work hard and devote our life to getting better at it. One thing about this business is that in order to stay on top you have to be out there around others to learn the latest techniques and to find the best horses. Often it will get intense, but it has stayed rewarding as well. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an odd transition for me because when I was younger I never had any real interest in giving someone lessons. I have certainly have learned from it. By observing someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mistakes I often figure out how to ride my horses even better. I have riders that are at all different levels of riding, so it is a challenge for me to figure out how to make progress, at each level. If you know anything about

JULY 2018

training horses, you realize that training does not always progress forward. Many times you will be working on a horse that you think is a star on Wednesday and Thursday you are wondering if this is the same horse you were riding the day before. Riding students learn in very much the same way. People that are not involved with livestock often have no idea why their horse will not get better each day and remain that way forever. Normally students with a background in livestock will naturally progress better than ones that did not get an interest until later in life. Like anything, experience is the best teacher. One thing that is the hardest to teach is that horses are reactive to you the rider. If you give the horse the proper information consistently he will become a good performer. If you give the horse the wrong information he will do nothing correctly. Horse training is developing a body language with your horse that he can understand. Green riders often develop the notion that horses think like they do. When riding students figure out how to think like a horse then they begin to advance. Watching my riderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progress, is my reward as a teacher and when they digress I pull my hair out. Of course, when they digress I have to figure out another way to teach them. Teaching horses to me is pretty easy compared to teaching people. If you keep asking a horse for the same thing repeatedly without getting upset, eventually he will give you what you desire. You may have to think of six different ways to communicate your point to him first. However, with people it is much more complicated than that because you have to contend with a variety of emotions, egos, and body limitations. Once your rider learns how to not let those three items interfere then he or she is on their way to becoming a better rider. Now comes the hard part, adding a cow into the equation. You have to teach your green rider how to deal with the unpredictability of the cow. All of the sudden you have taken both the horse and the rider out of their comfort zone. Now you are teaching them to control an additional animal. Needless to say, it becomes very challenging when you have to deal with a horse, a green rider, and a cow. You can never set up a training

regimen as no two cows are ever the same. Horse and rider have to learn how to respond to the random behavior of the cow. Needless to say that you need a well trained horse and a well trained rider before you introduce them to the bovine. People have mentioned to me that horses or cows are always honest. Funny, but I have never found that to be true. I think our animal counterparts are very similar to humans. Some animals are very honest, a small percentage are not. I do think that horses and cows react more than they plan, but as time goes on I think horses and cat tle become smarter. Each new generation of breeding and training keeps getting better. Since horses have advanced in ability, you have to become a better trainer. Yes, I still see cowboys get a great amount of work accomplished on untrained horses and their ability amazes me. Just think of how much more the cowboy would get accomplished if he was mounted on a well trained horse? I think we are seeing lots of changes in this direction as ranches and cowboys have to become more efficient. They have had to because our economic structure on the ranch continues to change to be able to compete in today’s ever changing economic climate. Tradition is a wonderful thing but when minor change can advance your plight and station in life, embrace it. Better trained horses, better trained cowboys and cowgirls only make life easier on the ranch. Always try to advance your horsemanship and your cowmanship. It astounds me how training horses and people reflects life. Hopefully, in your first 18 years your parents gave you the foundation you need to deal with life and its unpredictability. Then when you decide on what you want to do, you have to learn to apply yourself enough to accomplish that task. Once you learn that aspect then hopefully you try and advance that skill to a higher level. You can never quit learning or you will stagnate and quit advancing in life. If someone throws a high headed wild cow into your life, then what will you do? Hopefully, you will respond with aplomb, control the situation, not let it ruffle you, and come out on top.

Why Should YOUR Business Support the Local 4-H Livestock Auction? by Natalie Nicole Harris, Marketing Coordinator at Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance

efore you read this please know it is coming from my point of view as a past 10 year 4-H member, current 4-H volunteer and parent of a current 4-H’er. My thoughts are based off my experience and love for this organization! As a successful business woman I have supported and purchased many animals on behalf of my employers in the past. I have saw the return of my investment personally and would like to spread the word of this great organization, 4-H. But don’t forget those FFA youngsters when you are bidding. Your local County Fair auction is the culmination of a year of hard work and dedication by these young entrepreneurs. Yes, I think of each 4-H’er and FFA member as a young business person because they invest their love, time and energy into their livestock project. It is up to us as professionals to invest in the youth of 4-H by purchasing their animals. In many cases this is their first real transaction in the business world, selling a product for a profit. I would guess that over 80 percent of these kids will then invest their hard earned money into a savings account to go toward college tuition. But it’s also about so much more than money.

Tips For Success ЇЇ

ЇЇ

Do what you love, love what you do, and deliver more than you promise. Go the extra mile, it’s rarely crowded.

ЇЇ

Seek out a mentor. Learning from those who have already been down the trail can be very useful.

ЇЇ

You never know till you ask. Most people avoid risk their whole lives by simply assuming that the other guy will say no. If you are afraid of a little rejection once in a while, you will never go far in business. Ask—and you probably will receive!

ЇЇ

Successful people show up on time, with a plan, and a commitment to execute it and follow it through. Go for it!

ЇЇ

Remember, It’s hard to soar like an eagle if you are hanging around with the turkeys! Successful people seek out other successful people. Pro Ropers, Golfers, Ball Players, etc. don’t practice with beginners or amateurs on a regular basis when they are working to improve their “A Game,” and neither should you.

ЇЇ

If you want to double your income, then you have to double your efforts in some way or another. Working smarter is often the best way to find the increased output.

ЇЇ

Write it down. Remember that the person who counts on his memory for a filing system has a fool of a filer.

Every day remember to take at least a small step towards your dreams and goals. It helps to keep the power and energy of your mind focused on it! Most often, if you believe you can, then you can!

ЇЇ

Opportunities are sometimes like sunsets. The best ones are often fleeting. Cease the moment, don’t procrastinate. You will not get dealt a winning hand unless you are in the game. Take risks. You are better off

There is only one way to have a good reputation and that’s by earning it. While it takes a heck-of-a long time to earn one, it only takes a short time to ruin it.

It’s better to be prepared for opportunity and not have one, than to have an opportunity and not be prepared for one. If you don’t fail some of the time, then you’re not trying hard enough. Never think of failure as a failure, think of it as a temporary setback. As the legendary Joe Beaver said, “If you don’t break the barrier once in a while, you’re not pushing the line enough.” “Knowledge is power.” That statement is only true if you put your knowledge to good use! The most powerful weapon you can possess in any negotiation is superior information and knowledge. Do not overwhelm people with too much information all at once, listen carefully, determine what they really need to know at that time to make an informed decision and don’t

overwhelm them with unnecessary information. It’s awful hard to watch what you are saying if you’re talking out your “hind end”! ЇЇ

Dress for success. The clothes may not make the man, but as Mark Twain said, “Have you ever tried to take a naked man seriously”. Like it or not, your appearance has a big impression on how people take you. Dress the part!

ЇЇ

Always be professional. That means professional in dress, manners, knowledge, etc.

ЇЇ

You’ll always catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Be personable, be nice, be polite and courteous. You will not come across as a professional if you are all “sour grapes.”

ЇЇ

A deal can always be made when the parties see that it is also to their own benefit. Show them what they are getting out of the deal. Remember, if they don’t say no, then keep forging

ahead like it’s a yes. ЇЇ

Leave emotions out of business. Any decision made based upon emotions is a decision bound for disaster. Think it through.

ЇЇ

It’s not about what happens to you that matters, it’s about how you handle what happens to you that matters.

ЇЇ

Selling is simply creating conditions that convince a person they want to buy and that it was their own idea. If you are in sales, leave the used car salesman routine at home.

ЇЇ

Do not allow success to make you lazy. Be persistent. Stay after it. Don’t give up. Stay after it or your success will fade out eventually.

ЇЇ

Learn to open your heart and give without requiring anything in return. Practice random acts of kindness. Most successful folks I know are also very generous, the two go hand-in-hand.

t’s funny how the world goes around. Francisco and I were checking cows, making a big circle early in the morning to beat the heat. It’s peaceful out there. We’ve got grazing rights for 200 cows in 18 sections of Lowell Love grass, twenty-foot high mesquite and assorted cacti, canyons, arroyos and rattlesnakes, 40 miles north of the Mexican border in Arizona. We were deep in the monte, ‘scrub land’, when Francisco asked if I’d like to see where my son found the dead man. Eight years ago when my son was 16, he

and Francisco were making a “juelta,” a big circle (as in “Dar la juelta” – Take a dally). I didn’t speak English to my son until he was 10 years old, so he and Francisco communicated in Spanish. On that fateful day, Cindy Lou and I were visiting our friends in northern Idaho in the Whitebird Hill area. The cell phone rang…it was my son…he was stuttering…he was looking at a dead man…he wasn’t sure the man was dead…he had wheeled his horse to go find Francisco! I stopped him and ordered him to retrace his tracks to make certain he could

find his way back to the corpse after he found Francisco. They both had cell phones. Francisco phoned the local deputy sheriff who knew the country, and went to meet them. My son posted guard over the body. That was June 20, 2010. So when Francisco asked if I’d like to see the spot where it all happened, I said, “Si.” I had no doubt he could locate the exact area eight years later because I’ve come to realize that many cowboys have an unbelievable ability to remember terrain, cows, horses, tracks, holes in fences, lock combinations, landmarks and incidents. They are like fish in their own aquarium, only their aquarium is 12 thousand acres full! He crossed a couple of arroyos and bottoms, rock slides, 40-foot mesquite trees, tangles in the unforgiving scrub and then pointed. I dismounted, worked around and tried to picture how the scene was when my son first arrived in this exact spot eight years ago. The victim was obviously an illegal alien, probably Mexican, traveling with a group. His compadres had taken his shirt, shoes and personal belongings. He had been dead a couple days. Did he die quickly, assuming they stripped the body after he died? Did they say a few words over him? Did his family ever find out his ending? Who knows? Francisco made a tight circle and found the remnants of a faded blue baseball cap snarled in the brush. I pulled it loose, walked back to the spot and buried it. We took off our hats. I said a prayer in Spanish. The coincidence that we’d ever cross paths on that same date eight years later allowed us to pay due respect to another fellow traveler who was just lookin’ for a home. Vaya con Dios, Amigo. Which means, “Go with God.”

K-State Study Looks at the Economic Impact of Using Antimicrobials

Source: cattlebusinessweekly.com

tate University agricultural economists and veterinary medicine faculty members have completed an analysis of the economic impact of treating groups of high health-risk animals with antimicrobials, and they think their findings will help to inform public debate on the topic. Their work focused on the practice of metaphylaxis, or the mass treatment of a pen of high health-risk cattle to eliminate or minimize the onset of disease. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, metaphylaxis is used selectively by 59 percent of U.S. feedlots on 20.5 percent of all cattle placed on feed. The use of antimicrobials in livestock production is under intense public scrutiny, with many major restaurants, food service companies, supermarkets and others pressuring producers to use fewer antibiotics. “There’s a general sentiment and public policy concern about the use of antibiotics in animal production,” said Ted Schroeder, a livestock economist with K-State Research and Extension and University Distinguished Professor of agricultural economics. “Our study assessed the economic impacts on the beef cattle industry and on consumers of using metaphylaxis in the beef cattle industry.” Their major finding: if metaphylaxis were eliminated in the U.S. cattle industry without suitable health management alternatives, it could cost that industry as

much as $1.8 billion annually. cow-calf producers who are supplying “We know that if metaphylaxis were calves,” he said. “Even if they are supplynot available, a reduction in revenue ing healthy calves, they are still going to would result from reduced average daily be influenced because overall the feedlot gains, increased feed conversions, higher sector’s costs get passed down because health costs from treating more sick they are a margin-taker.” animals, more deaths primarily for those “So it’s a very important issue not only high health-risk animals,” among other for the feedlot sector, but for the cow-calf factors, said Elliott Dennis, a K-State doc- sector and consumers, as well.” toral student who worked on the study.

orn flies, face flies, and stable flies are not just irritants to livestock, but are economically important to producers due to negative impacts on milk production and calf weaning weights. In addition, they can affect grazing distribution and transmit eye diseases such as pinkeye and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR). It is difficult to predict what fly levels will be like for any given year, but hot, dry weather usually results in high numbers. It is important to understand identification and life cycles of pests affecting livestock in order to choose the most effective control options.

Horn Flies Horn flies are one of the most common and economically devastating insect pests of the US beef industry. They are about 1/2 to 1/3 the size of the common house fly and will commonly be found on the backs, shoulders, sides and poll area of the cattle. During the heat of the day they can be found on the belly. Adult females deposit eggs in fresh manure, and the eggs typically hatch within 1 to 2 days. The total life cycle of the horn fly is between 10 and 20 days, depending on temperature and time of year (Campbell, 1993). As adults, they spend most of their time on cattle, piercing the skin of host animals to suck blood. Horn flies may take between 20 and 30 blood meals per day (Campbell, 1993). If left untreated, densities of horn flies may reach several hundred or thousand flies per animal by mid-summer. If fly populations are high (over 200 flies per animal), treatment may be required. Options include dust bags, feed additives, sprays, pour-ons, and insecticide ear tags. Dust bags or oilers may be either forceduse (placed in an area that animals must pass through) or free choice. They offer good control, but require time to be spent checking and repairing bags. Feed additive products contain insecticides that pass through the animal’s digestive system and kill horn fly larvae in the manure. While these additives are effective in reducing the number of larvae, this does not necessarily

Figure 1. (Left to Right) House fly, stable fly, horn fly and face fly.

correlate to a reduction in the number of adults since flies will migrate to and from neighboring herds. Also, it is difficult to control intake of these feed additives and some animals may not eat enough of the feed additive for the insecticide to be effective. Sprays and pour-ons require applications every 2 to 3 weeks, which may not be feasible for some producers’ summer grazing situations. Ear tags contain an insecticide that moves from the surface of the tag to the coat of the animal. They are easy to apply and can be effective; however, there is a history of horn fly resistance to active ingredients used in some of the tags. Because of resistance issues, there are a variety of ear tags available that contain different insecticide classes, including synthetic pyrethroids, organophosphates, organochlorine, avermectin, and pyrethroids + organophosphates. Always read and follow label directions. Products vary, but some general guidelines are listed below. ЇЇ

ЇЇ ЇЇ

ЇЇ

Tag animals as late as possible to ensure maximum effectiveness when horn flies are present. Do not tag earlier than June 1st. Do not use the same type of insecticide tag two years in a row. Tag mature cows and weaned calves, but there is no need to tag nursing calves. Horn flies typically do not bother calves. Remove used tags at the end of the season. This will help reduce the incidence of horn fly resistance. Use high quality tags. Inexpensive tags are generally not as effective.

Researchers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have conducted trials on some of the newer options available for horn fly control, including insecticide strips that attach to the button side of an existing ear tag and CO2-powered device that delivers

pyrethroid. Both of these methods appear to result in acceptable control, with reported reductions in horn fly populations between 81 percent and 89 percent.

Face Flies Face flies resemble house flies but are slightly larger and darker. They are non-biting flies that cluster around animals’ eyes, mouth, and muzzle to feed on animal secretions. Females lay eggs in fresh manure from cattle on pasture, with the complete life cycle taking around 21 days. They are usually most numerous in pastures that have a lot of shaded areas and waterways. Face flies can cause damage to eye tissues, which can predispose animals to infection. Control of these pests is essential in controlling pinkeye. If pinkeye is a recurring problem, it is a good idea for producers to visit with their veterinarian about vaccine options. Because of the locations on the animal in which face flies feed and the fact that these flies are not on the animal most of the time, control of face flies can be difficult. Effective control may require more than one method of treatment, including the use of insecticide ear tags, dust bags, and sprays. In contrast to horn flies, both cows and calves must be treated in order to reduce face fly populations.

Stable Flies

pounds per day for grazing steers. Because stable flies mainly congregate around animals’ legs, it can be difficult to get adequate control with insecticides. Sprays are usually the best option for stable fly control, and require weekly applications to manage populations. Mist blower sprayers can be used for this purpose; however, initial costs may be high. One of the best ways to eliminate stable flies is to remove sources of organic matter that create breeding grounds. Cleaning areas where cattle were fed during the winter and drying down manure by spreading it or dragging fields will help reduce fly populations. A successful fly control program requires proper identification of the pest(s) causing the negative impacts, determining the best control method and following label directions on the product to get optimum control and decrease the chance of resistance. A listing of products available for control of insect pests can be found in the Nebraska Management Guide for Insect Pests of Livestock and Horses. References: Boxler, DJ. 2014. Nebraska Management Guide for Insect Pest of Livestock and Horses. University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension Publication EC 14-1550. Campbell JB. 1993. Horn fly control on cattle.

▫

Stable flies are the size of a house fly but darker in color. These are blood-feeding flies that mainly feed on the front legs. The most common sites for development of stable flies are feedlots or dairies, as larvae develop in decaying organic matter such as wet hay. However, they can also be found on pastures, particularly around winter hay feeding sites. Cattle often react to stable flies by bunching, stomping their legs, or standing in water. This can disrupt grazing patterns, and Nebraska studies indicate reductions in weight gains from 0.2-0.4 JULY 2018

Grubbing Followed By Prescribed Fire Each Year

<< continued from page 67

Add one-time grubbing cost ($175,000), plus prescribed fire startup cost ($10,960) and annual burn cost ($39) for 200 acres. Total cost over 30 years: $175,000 + $10.960 + ($39 x 17 years) = $186,623

size could be supported for the first 15 years or so. At year 18, we assume the operation can support 33 cows with 28 calves to market; at year 23, 22 cows and 18 calves; at year 28, 16 cows and 13 calves; and finally, at year 30, 14 cows and 11 calves. To calculate the loss in revenue, we compare the pounds that would have been marketed if the land was clear to the pounds marketed when the carrying capacity is decreased. For example, take the 18 calves, instead of 35, marketed at year 23. Assume a calf crop of 50 percent steers and 50 percent heifers. Using Oklahoma City market prices from 2000 to 2017 for 500- to 600-pound steers and heifers, it is estimated that approximately $165,000 in revenue would be lost.

Calculate Costs For Management Options So, what options are available for mesquite control that would be less costly than losing out on $165,000 in revenue? We estimated the costs of several management methods to answer this question. The methods included prescribed fire, aerial treatment, individual plant treatment (IPT) and grubbing as well as the combination of aerial treatment and prescribed fire or IPT and the combination of grubbing and prescribed fire or IPT. We assumed these management practices were started in year 13, just before destocking would begin. By implementing these practices, destocking would not be needed. The following calculations are rough estimates based on the Noble agricultural consultants’ knowledge.

One consideration for prescribed fire is that mature trees at high densities could lead to less-than-desirable suppression levels and not result in an increase in carrying capacity.

Individual Plant Treatment (Ipt) $20,000 every five years, four treatments in 18-year time frame. Total cost over 30 years: $20,000 x 4 = $80,000 IPT can be cheaper at lower canopy and density levels but may be less feasible at higher density levels and with more mature trees. Also, cut and spray may be the only IPT option when trees are larger.

Aerial Treatment $32,500 every five years with four treatments in an 18-year time frame. Total cost over 30 years: $32,500 x 4 = $130,000

Aerial Treatment Followed By Prescribed Fire Each Year Add one-time cost for aerial treatment ($32,500), plus prescribed fire startup cost ($10,960) and annual burn cost ($39) for 200 acres. Total cost over 30 years: $32,500 + $10,960 + ($39 x 17 years) = $44,123

Aerial Treatment Followed By Ipt Each Year IPT annual cost: $20 per acre x 200 acres per year = $4,000 Total cost over 30 years: $32,500 + ($4,000 x 17 years) = $100,500

Prescribed Fire

Grubbing

Initial startup cost of $10,960 for a sprayer, fire guards and other supplies. We assumed 200 acres would be burned each year with an annual cost of $39. Total cost over 30-year period: $10,960 + ($39 x 18 years) = $11,662

$175,000 every five years, four treatments in an 18-year time frame. Total cost over 30 years: $175,000 x 4 = $700,000

JULY 2018

Add one-time grubbing cost ($175,000), plus IPT annual cost ($4,000) for 200 acres. Total cost over 30 years: $175, 000 + ($4,000 x 17 years) = $243,000 In total, there are eight different management options ranging in cost from about $11,662 to $700,000. In Table 1, the bolded values represent the options that cost less than the lost revenue value of $165,000. Five options meet the threshold. Prescribed fire is the cheapest at $11,662. It is followed by the combination of aerial treatment and prescribed fire, then IPT, then aerial treatment and IPT, and finally aerial treatment, with an approximate cost of $130,000. Some producers have suggested the prescribed fire cost is double what is assumed here. Even at double the cost, prescribed fire remains the most economical option.

Four Economic Considerations First and foremost, you must have the cash on hand to implement the management practices discussed in this article. Just because you stand to lose revenue does not necessarily mean you have the cash on hand to implement the practices. So, you should consider setting cash aside for range management practices. You should also consider the fact that the costs to implement any of these practices may increase with deferment. As always, the pencil and paper must come together to determine the implementation costs for any of these practices on your operation. Also, check with your local Natural Resources Conservation Service office to determine whether any funding assistance is available. Last, consider whether you can afford to defer implementing management practices or suf fer the loss in your future income stream.

eorge and Vera Curtis came to New Mexico as small children in the early 1900s. Their parents, arriving in a covered wagon, homesteaded in rural Quay County, New Mexico, on the Llano Estacado. Forrest, New Mexico, was the nearest place of commerce, a community built around a rural schoolhouse where their children of the 1920s and 1930s era received their education. George heard of the Aberdeen Angus breed, and much improved genetics that the breed was known for, and made the decision to acquire a registered Angus herd of his own. Traveling across the U.S. in search of the best genetics that money could buy turned out to be quite an adventure for Mr. Curtis but also a memorable quest for the Curtis children of the era. George Curtis and his youngest son James V. Curtis accepted the challenge of competing with the other top Angus breeders of the 40s and 50s at numerous State and regional competitions including the Denver and Ft. Worth livestock shows. When James V. Curtis (Rip) returned from his world travels, sponsored by the U. S. Air Force, with his wife, a North Carolina native and Air Force registered nurse, Thelma, the Curtis team resumed their Angus breeding venture. As cutting edge technology became available in the form of artificial insemination and embryo transplant, the Curtis family began to utilize these new tools to improve the herd focusing on the genetic traits that most needed improvement both in the industry and on the Curtis ranch. George Curtis’ passing in 1977 and his son’s passing in 1994 left the responsibility of sire selection and herd genetics to the present generation of Curtises. Tamara, Blake and Tye Curtis still operate George Curtis, Inc. today. The Curtis family takes pride in completing three generations in the Registered Angus cattle business. Our pledge is to continue to meet our customers’ expectations of excellence. The easy calving, top gaining, moderate framed stock that the Curtis family has been known for in the past is still available today at George Curtis Inc.

Roger Edward Barnett, 75, Douglas, Arizona, passed away on March 16, 2018. He was born on November 5, 1942 in Bisbee, Arizona to George E. Barnett and Beatrice E. Hewlett. Roger lived a full life of success, adventure, and generosity. He had a well-established work ethic at an early age, assisting his father George with the family service station and feed store at 13 years of age and driving the flatbed truck to get feed and hay. Roger went on to marry and work full time in the mines. He convinced his father to purchase a tow truck for a second gas station in another town. Roger always had many irons in the fire. Later, he left the mines and went to work as a Deputy Sheriff at the Cochise County Sheriff’s department during the day and operating the tow truck at night. He then expanded the business to fuel delivery. This would lead to opening Barnett’s Propane, LLC. Roger was the founder of Barnett’s Towing, LLC, and Barnett’s Propane, LLC. He grew these businesses by expanding both towing and propane to other locations throughout the state. In 1982, Roger, with three other men started the Arizona Professional Towing and Recovery Association. He promoted and supported the towing industry his entire life. All of his efforts led him to being selected for the International Towing and Recovery Hall of Fame in 2004. Roger’s passion didn’t stop there. In 1995, Roger purchased a cattle ranch along the border in southern Arizona. His passion for National Security led to over 14,000 illegal border crossers over the years being observed and reported to the United States Border Patrol by him, his wife and brother. Roger will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Barbara; mother Beatrice Hewlett Barnett; three siblings: Donald (Billie) Barnett, Barbara (Jim) Paajanen, and Brent (Gail) Barnett; five children: Troy (Angela) Barnett, Kody Binns, Keith (Chris) Barnett, Darryl (Jennifer) Barnett, and Deanna (Doug) Foreman; nine grandchildren: Zachary (Heather) Barnett, Tori Barnett, Darren Barnett, Blair Binns, Sabreena Barnett, Jackson Binns, Logan Barnett, Meagan Barnett, and David Barnett; and one great-grandchild, Waylon Barnett. A host of devoted nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Doyle Dewayne Barker (DD), 88, Dell

JULY 2018

City, Texas celebrated his 88th birthday in the arms of his Heavenly Father and loving wife of 69 years, Viola June, March 26, 2018. He died peacefully with his family by his side at home in Dell City, Texas following a brief illness. Doyle Dewayne was born in Indiahoma, Oklahoma to Carl S. and Lillian Wilcox Barker. He graduated from Manitou High School and attended Cameron College in Lawton, Oklahoma. Doyle Dewayne married Viola June Orman in 1948 and spent the early years of their marriage farming and ranching in Snyder, Oklahoma before moving his wife and young family to Dell City, Texas in 1964. He was engaged in farming and ranching in Hudspeth County through the 1970s and ranching in Otero County, New Mexico until his death. Doyle Dewayne was a Christian and a member of the First Baptist Church of Dell City; his devotion to his family and his firm belief in God supported him during his illness and ultimately gave him peace. He was a Mason and a member of the Frederick Oklahoma Lodge No. 249. Doyle Dewayne was active in his community, serving on the school board and the fair association. As a young man he enjoyed playing polo, coached his son’s Little League baseball teams and was an avid team roper. In his later years, he enjoyed spending time out on the ranch checking his herd and cherished the time he spent with his family. He was blessed with a large and loving family and is survived by his daughter Sharon Barker, Las Cruces; and sons Larry Barker, Las Cruces, Randy Barker (Susan), Dell City, and Dennis Barker (Renee), Ruidoso; one sister, Norma Jean Russell, Arlington, Texas, thirteen grandchildren, twenty-seven (and counting) great-grandchildren, and one great-great-granddaughter. Henry Torres, 80, Silver City, former Grant County commissioner and longtime advocate for farming and ranching, died April 6. Torres was born in Faywood on November 7, 1937, according to his history on the New Farm & Ranch Museum website. He was raised on a ranch near Deming from age six on and graduated from Deming High School. His father’s family was among the first non-Native American settlers of the continued on page 200 >>

A Worthy Pardon for the Hammonds

Trump corrects a federal injustice against two Oregon ranchers. by The Editorial Board, Wall Street Journal

he pardon power has its most compelling use when correcting a government injustice. President Trump used his authority recently for precisely such a purpose in pardoning Dwight Hammond Jr. and his son Steven. In 2011 the federal government charged the two Oregon ranchers with arson and destruction of federal property for having done nothing more than utilize the same fire-management tools that the government routinely employs. The Hammonds had set fires in 2001 and 2006—one to fight invasive species, another to protect against a wildfire. Both fires unintentionally spread to burn nearby public grazing land—139 acres in the first case, a single acre in the second. A federal jury acquitted them of most charges but found them guilty of setting the fires—which they’d already admitted. A federal judge gave them reduced sentences, saying that anything more would “shock the conscience” and be “grossly disproportionate to the severity” of their conduct. We wrote about their case in 2016. The Obama Justice Department, in its usual restraint against its political opponents, appealed and persuaded a different judge in 2015 to impose a mandatory five years each under the 1996 Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act. Yes, a terrorism statute. The exercise smacked of retribution and coercion, since the Hammonds remain one of the last private ranching families in the Harney Basin. The feds have been on a campaign to drive out private landowners to expand a federal bird refuge around Malheur Lake. In recent years the feds have revoked

grazing permits, mismanaged water to let ranchlands flood, and harassed ranchers with regulatory actions. The Hammonds refused to give in to these tactics and ended up in prison. The elder Dwight Hammond, 76, has now served three years, while Steven, 49, has served four. They have also paid $400,000 to settle a federal civil suit against them. The federal treatment of the Hammonds fueled the 40-day citizen takeover in 2016 of Oregon’s Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. That occupation (which the Hammonds did not endorse) was inexcusable and ended in violence, though it highlighted the growing fury of Western landowners over the federal government’s bullying practices.

He also became an auctioneer, graduating from The Western College of Auctioneering in Billings, Mont. He ran an auction business with a partner in Socorro from 1970 to 1974, when the partnership dissolved and he returned to work for the, now named, New Mexico Livestock Board, where he was employed for more than 25 years, becoming Grant County livestock inspector in 1979. He retired from the Livestock Board as area supervisor in 1996. Rancher Joe McCauley said Torres was wellliked by those in the industry.

and managing natural resources and wildlife. “We are proud to offer this one-of-a-kind program for the future cattle producers of our state,” said Jon Boren, New Mexico State University College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences associate dean and director of the Cooperative Extension Service. “The collaboration between our Extension specialists, county Extension agents and members of the ranching industry has provided an opportunity for the youth to learn about the many aspects of ranching.” College-level hands-on curriculum provided the campers with information about how to develop a ranch management plan for a scenario similar to the host ranch. “What we are finding from the more than 150 youths who have participated in past ranch camps is that they have gained a greater appreciation of the science and opportunities in agriculture,” Boren said. “It is also a win-win for our aging agricultural industry with more young people having an interest in going into this type of work.” Attending this year’s camp were Mathis Catron and Lori Robertson of Catron County, Ally Houghtaling of Chaves County; Phoebe Rychener of Cibola County; Miguel Chavez of De Baca County; Ariel Flores, Isabella Flores and Sophia Moreno of Dona Ana County; Cursten Blanton and McKenzie Evans of Grant County; Kyle Knight of Logan County; Dally Carlisle and Bailey Tom of McKinley County; Hunter Alcorn of Mora County; Joey Howland and Conner Scarbrough of Otero County; Gabriela Baca, Amanda Chacon and Samuel Martinez of Rio Arriba County; Lyle Logemann of Roosevelt County; Matt Major of Socorro County; Taylor Miller, Monique Garcia and Raphael Garcia of Taos County; Jaydon Warnke of Union County; Mya Marquez and Julianna Williams of Valencia County; Cecil Shannon of Los Alamos, Colorado; and Alicia Rodriquez of Tucson, Arizona.

He was born on December 2, 1923 in Clifton, Arizona. He was the youngest of three children born to Christina Peat and John Morrison Paterson, emigrants from Scotland who journeyed to southeastern Arizona in 1906 to work in the copper mines. His father was a mechanic. Alex’s earliest memories were of hardship. The mine retired his father in 1929 with $600. His mother, an orphan who had worked as a dairy maid in Scotland, took part of the funds and bought several milk cows. Thus began the Paterson Dairy in North Clifton. During the Depression, Alex delivered milk to neighbors in a wagon. On weekends as a youngster, he worked at Zorilla’s meat packing facility. He slaughtered cull cows. His pay was the hocks, occasional tail and tripe that his family ate in soups the rest of the week. During high school, the Patersons and their dairy cows moved to Wards Canyon, outside Clifton. Alex was graduated from Clifton High School six months before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. For the next year, he attended Arizona State College while he recovered from surgery on his chronically flat feet. At the end of the year, the draft board rejected his application to enlist for health reasons and told him to go home to deliver milk. He did.

Those of us who care about animals face a multitude of challenges, not the least of which is the constant misrepresentation of issues pertaining to animals. The National Animal Interest Alliance (NAIA) counters this propaganda in numerous ways; with articles and blogs, through social media, by conducting original research and disseminating the findings, by publishing ads in magazines and on billboards, by hosting conferences and more. NAIA is adding a new vehicle for disseminating factual information: DiscoverAnimals.org, a resource that strives to provide useful, entertaining, and reliable information about animals to the public. The site is a collaborative effort and we encourage all of our supporters to take an active role in helping us achieve that goal. I invite you to take a look at it, read the content, and share with us any additional information or resources you would like us to include.

He was a devoted Dad to his three children: Brad Elbert Kirksey, born in 1984; Erin Jean (Kirksey) Franco, in 1985; and Jana Kathleen (Kirksey) Shafer, in 1989. The Kirksey kids and their parents were actively involved in 4-H, and with great patience Rex shared his love of agricultural science and the natural world with his children. He also encouraged them in their school activities and was always in attendance at sporting events. He was especially pleased that all three of his children graduated from his and Cynthia’s alma mater, NMSU in Las Cruces, each securing employment in their respective academic field. The Kirksey family had an active church life and Rex’s faith and sense of personal responsibility led him to serve on the Tucumcari Municipal School Board for 16 years. A man of profound character, Rex was a mentor to his many nieces and nephews, college interns at the ag science center, staff at the title company, and children in the community. After retirement, Rex was active in USAID, offering his expertise in sustainable agricultural practices in Afghanistan and Botswana. Rex was grandfather known as “Papa” to six beautiful children. Brad married Keeley (Brown) in 2011 and they are parents of three. Erin married Ricardo Franco in 2017 and they are parents to two. Jana married Keith Shafer in 2012 and they are parents to one and twins are due in the fall. Rex will also be remembered for his wry, joyful sense of humor. He was an expert at teasing, and did so in a manner where people felt flattered by his attention even as they might laugh painfully. He always had a twinkle in his eye and an unforgettable smile while he was ‘funning’ you. Rex was a gentle, caring man, a tower of kindness and decency. He is loved and admired by people far and wide, all of whom are brokenhearted at his passing. In addition to his parents, wife, children, and grandchildren, Rex is survived by a brother, Scott Kirksey and wife Denise (Haaland), Clayton; Jane (Kirksey) Piazza and husband Dino, Buckeye, Arizona. Sister, Jeri (Kirksey). He was especially close to his adopted kin, the Lopez family, and is survived by father Pablo and his children, Robert Lopez and Gina Lopez, Tucumcari.

One of the largest USDA Inspected plants in the state is able to do custom processing and operate as a multi-species plant. “Thank you Joe! It is exciting to see a new plant in the state that could get us closer to a branded N.M. beef program.

and freezing fresh produce. “We set some pretty high expectations of the youth,” Bittner said. “They were responsible for capturing the week’s activities using iPads from NMSU’s Learning Lab.” They used the iPads to take pictures, videos and notes from their interviews with the producers and growers. “They not only met our expectations, they exceeded our expectations with their technical skills and their presentation to a group of 20-25 adults on Saturday,” she said. “The New Mexico Beef Council was happy to sponsor “Beef Day”, the first day of the two week-long camps. This is a worthwhile education effort for the council to participate in. Teaching kids where beef comes from and the effort and care it takes to produce beef for their families’ tables, teaches our future beef consumers to feel confident in our products. I commend Laura and Newt for their hard work and thoroughness in organizing this excellent camp”, Tamara Hurt, NMBC Chairman.

One HOWL of a NEED! R

ecent federal court decisions have created a need to fund additional wolf litigation if Arizona and New Mexico ranchers and their families plan to stay on the ground. The precedents set by the Tucson Federal District Court 10J Rule case will have far reaching impacts on all endangered species. To head that off, we will likely need to appeal the recent Tucson decision … But there is good news! Your dollars will go farther then EVER before! We have had two generous donors, CKP Drought Insurance and Alisa Ogden have pledged to match every dollar donated! New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association, P.O.
