Friends and Neighbors,

e had a great Mid-Year Convention this last month in Ruidoso that was well attended. There were many interesting policy sessions but I found the session regarding “Who represents Ag?” to be one that we all need to ask ourselves. Who represents agriculture? The New Mexico Department of Agriculture is a regulatory agency who also does a great job of developing markets for New Mexico agricultural products nationally and internationally. Trade organizations such as Cattle Growers’, Wool Growers, Farm Bureau, Pecan, Chile, and Hay growers, irrigation districts, etc. represent their producer membership in education, legislative, and judicial issues. There are a number of environmental organizations who provide education and legislative input into a wide range of conservation issues, many already being addressed by those working the land. But who truly represents agriculture? Fingers are pointed at production agriculture for land, water, energy issues, for historical practices that have long been changed through education. Global warming is a whole different animal. Animal rightists and vegans want to put us out of business. Environmentalists say our soil and land is degraded, the wildlife habitat is being destroyed, and deterioration of the watershed is harming water supplies. These groups garner a lot of media attention and our trade organizations do a good job of countering misinformation but who truly represents agriculture? In the session “Who represents Ag?” the audience was divided into six or seven groups and asked to brainstorm this question. The common theme among the groups is that we, the producers, represent agriculture; we have a story to tell and we need to get the message out. This might involve opening our ranches to a tour showing our stewardship. We need to say we are caretakers of the land; caregivers of the animals. We need to tell the urban folks we are a family business and here are the issues we are facing that will impact our family and business. Each one of us need to get more involved in our local government; attend commission meetings, write comments or op-eds. Join a trade organization and get involved. The world has changed, fingers are pointing at us from every direction, and we can’t afford to sit on the ranch telling everyone to go to h---, this is my business and none of yours. We represent agriculture, we have a story to tell, and we are the ones who can best tell that story and our trade organizations can help to get the word out. Hopefully, this month we will see the monsoons move in and it rains so much the national media will point to the space between Arizona and Texas and talk about how the cows need rubber booties! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!!

TO THE POINT by Caren Cowan, Executive Director, New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association

So Many Issues, So Little Time…

here are a lot of great ideas that come to mind between the writing these columns… I would be ahead of the game if I would just sit down and write it when I think of them. I would be ahead of the game, but I might just be wasting time as new things come up that demand attention. For this column I will work from latest to oldest just in case I run out of room. One might think that it is mid-summer so what could be so pressing. After all we staged a pretty darned good Mid-Year Meeting even though our two keynote speakers got derailed in Dallas trying to fly from the DC area to New Mexico. We punted and had some good conversation about the 2020 elections that started months ago. We agreed there is a need to take back the agricultural arena from those who are trying claim they are spokesmen for ranchers, farmers and food. We broke the general session audience into working groups not once but twice to have fruitful discussions on how we

approach the future. No one bolted from the room and everyone seems to have positive things to present. You will be hearing a lot more about the outcomes from those sessions in the months to come. There will be plenty of opportunity and need for your participation. But all of that seems like eons ago. We are now deep into the planning of the 2019 Joint Stockmen’s Convention, Legislative Interim Committees and dealing with the day to day issues. And what you say, are those issues? After all, we are just past the Independence Day celebrations which could mark a rejuvenation of pride in country and he/she kind. Wolves never go away and just get worse. Kenneth Artz writing for Heartland in early July stated, “Endangered Mexican gray wolves, reintroduced by the federal government to parts of the Southwestern United States, have killed nearly as many cows and calves in the first four months of 2019 as they did all of last year causing an increase in tensions among U.S. wildlife managers, environmentalists, and rural residents.” New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association members and others in Southwestern New Mexico and Southeastern Arizona are dealing with blood bathes of wolf kills — kills that are not being compensated for at even a merger level. Word is that depredation reports from 2018 haven’t be completed and we are already half-way through 2019. We live in the United States of America. How can our government be doing

this to us???

The Only Thing Worse… . . . than wolves are wolves and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) together. In this instance, the agency trying to take away an allotment from a man who plead to a misdemeanor when he was charged with killing a wolf with a shovel. The fact of the matter is that he was told there were no wolves in the area, so he was trapping coyotes. When the wolf was caught, it had to be stunned to be released from the trap. The wolf wandered off and died. When charges were filed against him, he hired representation that recommended he take a plea deal, pay a fine and walk away. Seems like a logical plan — if there were any logic applied to the Endangered Species Act or the federal government. Then enters the environmental groups who found a new wedge to remove a rancher from the land. There is a clause in federal permits that says if a permit holder violates state or federal law that the allotment ownership is in jeopardy. The clause doesn’t specify whether the violation is a misdemeanor or a felony. If you have ever gotten a speeding ticket and paid it, you could be in trouble. The allotment owner has gone through the USFS appeals process that we have ranted against many times in the last 500,000 plus words I have written for this column. The USFS appeals process starts with the district ranger. If your appeal is denied there, you may appeal it to the forest supervisor. If you are denied there, you may appeal it to the regional forester. There is no “day” in court in this process. The agency is the arresting officer, the judge, the jury and the executioner. Once you have exhausted this process, which in this case took nearly seven months, you are at the mercy of the USFS decision or you must file in federal district court. That is an expensive process with a deck loaded against you. That’s were our NMCGA member sits today. But the enviros are not even satisfied with that. They are now pushing in the media to have him charged with animal cruelty.

Then you watch the news…

In just the last few days, teens have stormed a clothing store and a Walgreen’s stealing thousands of dollars’ worth of goods. While these actions were caught on camera, tracking down these individuals

and prosecuting them remains to be seen. This morning Ted Cruz was tweeting about people opening ice cream cartons, licking them and putting them back in the store freezer. Check the web. It is true. This will undoubtedly lead ice cream makers having to seal their cartons before they can go into stores… again driving up the cost of food. If you are a Cowan ice cream is a major food group — Dad and Uncle Bill used to buy it three gallons at a time. But back to serious, the reality is we have little government in place to protect taxpaying American businesses or Americans. Have you ever looked up the definition of anarchy? All of this make my recent experiences with Whataburger not having mayonnaise and A & W running out of root beer seem like trivia.

Second Dollar Collection for the Beef Checkoff is Coming Commencing on July 16, 2019 the New Mexico Beef Council will begin collecting a second dollar on the beef checkoff. This dollar is voluntary and is refundable but there are processes you must file. The second dollar is voluntary and was made possible by the passage of SB 193 in the 2019 New Mexico Legislature. The statute outlines a procedure regarding opting out of the second dollar and for a refund of the that second dollar if it is collected. According to New Mexico law, the New Mexico Livestock Board (NMLB) is charged with the responsibility of collecting beef checkoff dollars. The initial dollar, often called the federal dollar, is in place and is not refundable nor is it possible to get a refund. Nothing has changed on that dollar. The new statute states: “Producers may elect not to participate in the council assessment

for each duly registered New Mexico livestock brand through an application process. The application must be in writing, on a form prescribed by the council for that purpose. Incomplete information on an opt-out form may delay the processing of the form. Upon receipt of the completed form, the council shall notify the board. The board shall enter the request in the board brand database in order to stop collection of the council assessment for the given brand. The council assessment opt-out shall be in effect for three years from the application date. A producer may revoke the opt-out option at any time by request made through the council.” The forms to opt out of the second dollar may be found at: https://www.nmbeef. com/ranchersnm/state-assessment If this form is not in place by July 16, 2019, you will be assessed the second dollar by the NMLB inspectors. If you pay the second dollar assessment, you may apply for a refund. The statute addresses refunds as follows: “Any person who has paid a council assessment is entitled to a refund of the amount paid by making written application therefor to the council. The application form shall be returned within thirty days after the inspection was made giving rise to the council and

shall contain enough detail to enable the council to find the record of payment. Refunds shall be made within thirty days of the date of the application unless the proceeds and the necessary information have not been received by the council, in which case the refund shall be made within fifteen days after receipt of the proceeds and necessary information. The form shall be provided by the council.” This refund application may also be found at: https://www.nmbeef.com/ranchersnm/state-assessment Should you have any questions or need further information, please visit the New Mexico Beef Council website at https:// www.nmbeef.com/ , call the Beef Council at 505/841-9407 or write to 1209 Mountain Road Place NE, Suite C, Albuquerque, NM 87110.

State Land Leases Due August 1. The New Mexico State Land Office (SLO) has issued its lease renewals for 2019. Not every lease comes up for renewal every year. The SLO renews approximately one fifth of the leases every year. The leases look a bit different from those in years past but there are no significant changes in the lease that appear to be of concern. Every Commissioner has the flex-

ibility to make changes to the lease. The 2019 leases are reflective of a new Commissioner. It is extremely important that grazing leases get their leases signed and turned back in by the deadline. If you don’t make the deadline and someone chooses to bid against you for the lease, you have no opportunity to match or exceed that bid. Your only protection against competitive bidding is to file and pay your lease by the August 1 deadline. Should you have any questions, you may contact the NMCGA office at 505/247-0584 or email nmcga@nmagriculture.org .

The Border This is another seemingly unending government issue. It was pleasant to see that the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives finally agreed to a bill that provided more funding to aide the poor Border Patrol that is doing its best handle the hundreds of thousands of people who are assaulting our Mexican border. The news recently reported that from May to June 2019 monthly crossing were down by 40,000, but both months still topped over 100,000 each. Hopefully this is some reflection of the better job the

Mexican government is doing on their side of the border. But federal debate remains hot. We did a call to action to OAC asking her to come to the border and actually see what is going on. To her credit, she did come close to the border in recent days. However, she only visited the detention centers that have been begging for adequate funding to care for migrants, immigrants or illegal immigrants depending upon who is speaking. I found myself in quite a debate on this issue at a national meeting I recently attended. The topic of the session was addressing the public to get our message (or message) across to the public. Over the past 20 years there has been lots of advice on how to better inform the general public about our issues. We have gone from having women doing the speaking. White men have no value in the public arena. Then we went for making a fairness plea. The current advice is to share our fears with the public hoping they will resonate with the fears of the public. I’ll try anything, but so far, my fears don’t seem to be having any affect on anyone else… they have their own fears. Inevitably the issue of addressing the

border crisis came up. One of the presenters said she had to be very careful in talking about the border. After all, her grandparents were immigrants. Well dah! Do you know anyone, except for Indians whose grandparents or great-grandparents who weren’t??? I attempted to take issue with the comment, but the moderator refused to call on me. At least one person in the room felt that the moderators only called on men and let them speak more than once even though the session was time limited. Not to be deterred I stood up at the end of the Session and asked my previous question anyway. It looked like the gloves might come off. A young man seated a little behind me and to my right immediately yelled that my question was unfair because our founding generations didn’t have to face the oppression as these poor illegal immigrants are facing today. The moderator quickly started clearing the room. I cornered the young man and told him about my fears for my mother who lives about 40 miles north of the border who had her chicken coop raided. The offender could have all the eggs he wanted, but the idea that she was/is that close to potential

It’s Pool Time !

harm scares me to death. His answer was that the Republicans are making a mess of this. I retorted that this was NOT a partisan issue but a humanitarian issue for people on both sides of the border. He again blamed the Republicans. I wouldn’t agree and he finally disengaged himself. I gave him my card and told him if he was ready to work on a solution without name calling to let me know. He sent me a kind thank you note for the exchange of ideas.

Greetings from our outfit to yours . . .

fter a cold spring it looks like summer is here. Some parts of the state received some moisture while other places are waiting for the summer monsoons to start. Hopefully by the time you are reading this everyone is getting some rain. Our nation celebrated a birthday this month. In 1776 we decided we were tired of a king treating us like subjects and thought we had a better idea on how to run a country. Our founding fathers were pretty smart guys. Our Constitution and the amendment’s were all designed to protect the people, not the Government. The Government is supposed to work for us, the people, not the other way around. We have elected officials in office now

whose entire game plan is to basically overthrow the party in power. Simply because they don’t like it. They are not trying to solve any of the problems we have in this country. Immigration is a big one. All of the democrats running for President, how many are there now . . . 20, 30? . . . who really knows, are saying that there is no crisis on the border. President Trump and I are telling you there is a crisis on the border! The democrats are not coming up with any solutions as to what should be done. They are against whatever republicans have suggested. I think that the answer is to bus all of the illegal immigrants to a sanctuary city and release them. But they don’t want them. It’s kinda like the wolves, we want them here just not in our own backyard. If the politicians want to really see what is happening on the border let them go spend a week with a rancher there. They might have a little different outlook. I think its gonna be an interesting primary season watching all the Democrats snipe at each other when they’re really all exactly alike. I guess all we can hope for is that all of us who actually work everyday and keep this country running can muster enough people to vote and keep things

going. Enough on politics. The fake meat deal is ongoing and probably not going away anytime soon. I saw Little Caeser’s Pizza advertising a fake sausage on one of the pizzas currently being sold. Our CowBelles are doing a fantastic job of countering this and continue to promote beef. This is our main job. To promote our product. But ladies we really do need the help of everyone. Until next time. May God Bless. – Nancy Phelps, President

It was voted to make a donation to the Pat Nowlin Scholarship in memory of Arley Howard, a former member. Several get well cards were passed around for signatures. Kathy Davis took final orders for personalized aprons and showed those to be donated to local chefs that specialize in beef dishes. Copper has received a $500 donation from the NM Gas Company. The group thanked member Lori Nell Reed for nominating Copper for this award. Some money will be used for ordering supplies for the Grant County Fair in September. It was approved to donate a buckle to the 4-H Livestock Judging event at the Fair. Donations will also be made to two local FFA chapters. As there is no July meeting,

the group will meet again in August. From the April 16 and May 21 meetings: A thank you card with a generous donation was received for the reception luncheon for Alvina Rutherford. It was decided to make a Pat Nowlin memorial donation in her honor. New membership applications were received from Sherri Bays, LJ Lundy and Vicki McCauley. The Cash Party held with the Cattle Growers and Fair Committee was a success and resulted in a good deposit to the scholarship account. McKeen’s Ranch Days was well attended.

A short meeting was held with Sandy McKenna, President, presiding. Joan Key, Secretary, read May minutes and they were approved as read. Sandy gave an update on the lunch served for the Cibola/Vaughan Ranch Auction held on June 1.

A big shout out to Karen Cortese and Beverly Overton for ramrodding the prep day and Saturday lunch, and, to Shane Adams for cooking the all the beef for both events. The next opportunity to promote beef will be June 20 when DeBaca County Extension Agent, Aspen Achen, hosts and serve contestants and parents at the Southwest Annual 4-H meeting in Ft. Sumner. Next meeting will be held August 8 at the home of Mary McClain. Joan Key Secretary Chamiza CowBelles met on June 6, 2019. The meeting was called to order at by President, Jeni Neely, in Johnny B’s Restau-

rant in TorC with 10 members and one guest (Tara Neely) present. Jeni read both the CowBelle Prayer and Creed. All recited the Pledge. Both the secretary’s minutes from the May meeting and the treasurer’s report were approved as read. Old Business: Nancy reviewed the WALC Conference which both she and Cathy attended. With the exception of the first evening’s reception, the review was glowing. CowBelles had a table, sold approximately $300 of mdse and were able to enroll three new members. One attendee from Sierra County, Megan Goyette, promised to join and she did join on this date. Welcome, Megan! Nancy returned to a brand throw which was intended for a silent auction at WALC but which never took place. New Business: Sara Marta sent word through Jeni that the

Adam Petersen Memorial Rodeo and Dutch Oven Cookoff would appreciate the donation again of $500 to be used for purchase of the meat for the cookoff. Cathy requested for Jeni to ask the Petersens to display CowBelle banner on the arena fence rather than in the judging booth. Cathy has also agreed to put up CowBelle booth for both days— August 3 & 4. Mid-year meeting will be held June 10 in Ruidoso. Nancy has prepared the four door prizes. Cattle Growers has agreed to comp meals for the three Beef Ambassadors. If they don’t comp the lunches for Man of the Year, and scholarship recipients, Nancy feels local should pay for them. The funeral for the daughter-in-law of a members is tomorrow. Nancy suggested group furnish a big roast of beef which she will cook and deliver. The husband of a

Feeding Quality Forum Registration Open

t’s no secret, we’re producing more high-quality beef than ever before, but does that suggest a danger of oversaturation or swamping demand? Buzz words and marketing claims talk a lot, but consumers speak with their wallets. What do they say about the years to come? As animal health concerns arise, how do traceability and antibiotic use play into your plans from calving to finishing and beyond? The 14th annual Feeding Quality Forum (FQF) in Amarillo, Texas, this August 27 and 28 will serve up answers to these and other points of discussion. It’s as an opportunity for cattlemen to stretch their thinking to take in the latest research and technology applications relevant to business now. “The Forum is designed to create a learning environment for feeders and commercial cow-calf producers targeting high-quality beef to come together and network with the industry,” says Kara Lee, Certified Angus Beef LLC (CAB) production

brand manager. New this year, Cargill will host a packing plant tour on Tuesday morning, prior to forum kickoff but with limited space on a first come, first served basis and an anticipated waitlist. Touring the plant means a chance to witness the large-scale plant procedures and better understand the process after animals leave the feedyard. “Don’t be discouraged if waitlisted for this opportunity,” Lee says. The Cargill beef procurement team will host a session later in the afternoon to continue the conversation. Dan Basse, AgResource president and analyst, kicks off FQF Tuesday afternoon with a wealth of knowledge on global marketplace dynamics. Then the program moves on to discussing quality beef supplies and carcass grading technologies. The evening continues with the Industry Achievement Award Banquet to celebrate 2019 honoree Jerry Bohn, Pratt, Kansas. “Jerry has been a tremendous champion for the entire beef industry and is a well-respected icon in the cattle feeding world,” Lee says. “He has been integral in many industry organizations, shifting toward quality. He is forward thinking and a great partner for anyone in the beef industry.” The tone Wednesday is set with the “Consumer Buzz Around Beef” session, covering the ever-changing topic of consumer demand and how it drives the way we produce beef.

sultant, continues the conversation on liver abscesses and antibiotic use before West Texas A&M University veterinarian John Richeson digs into technological advancements in characterizing disease risk and improving diagnoses Wednesday morning. Traceability has been discussed and highly debated for years now, but the idea of using that technology to improve the control of a disease outbreak and elevate consumer trust is intriguing, Lee says. Joe Leathers, of the 6666 Ranch, Guthrie, Texas, will bring his insight to the table as he outlines opportunities for success and challenges the ranch discovered in their pilot traceability project. “We have two goals: one, we want our attendees to leave sessions with tangible, take-home points – things they may not necessarily get at their local cattlemen’s meeting,” says Lee. “We also want to introduce some ideas and research that will stretch their thinking a little bit. We want this to be a very progressive and forward-thinking event that allows them to think ‘maybe today I’m not facing this idea’ or ‘I haven’t considered this,’ but introducing some of those ideas and sharing the most cutting-edge data and research in the industry to really provide something very thought provoking for them.” Feeding Quality Forum is made possible by Zoetis, Diamond V, Cargill, Micronutrients, Feedlot Magazine, Angus Link and Angus Source, and CAB. This year, on-site registration will not be available. Early registration is $100, due July 22, which is also final cutoff for the Cargill packing plant tour. After July 22, registrations will cost $200, and they close August 9. Student registration is also available this year for $50. Registration is open now at https://www. certifiedangusbeef.com/fqf2019/, and will not be accepted after August 9. Registration fees include access to all educational sessions, packing plant participation, ticket to the Industry Achievement Award Banquet, lunch Wednesday and access to presentations after the event.

Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act of 2019 Introduced with Bi-Partisan Support Following UN Report on Global Biodiversity Crisis by Gabby Saunders, Wildlands Network

arking the most significant step toward national wildlife conservation in decades, the Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act of 2019 was introduced in both houses of Congress. Led by Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM), the bill was co-sponsored in the Senate by Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Cory Booker (D- NJ), Kamala Harris (D-CA), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Bernie Sanders (D-VT), Jon Tester (D-MT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and Ron Wyden (D-OR). The bill was introduced in the House of Representatives by Congressmen Don Beyer (D-VA) and Vern Buchanan (R-FL). This bi-partisan introduction comes just

weeks after the United Nations released a harrowing report detailing the threats facing global biodiversity, including wildlife native to America. If passed, the Act will restore habitat and protect America’s native wildlife by establishing a National Wildlife Corridors Program that facilitates the designation of wildlife corridors on federal lands and provides grants to maintain wildlife corridors on non-federal lands. Fragmentation of wildlife habitat has been identified as a significant threat to wildlife across America. The Act grants authority to key federal agencies to create a National Wildlife Corridor system on federal public land and creates a Wildlife Movement Grant Program to incentivize the protection of wildlife corridors by state and tribal agencies, as well as interested private landowners, on non-federal lands. It also establishes Regional Wildlife Movement Councils and a National Coordination Committee to identify, prioritize and fund on-the-ground projects supported by state agencies, tribes and local stakeholders. “With roughly one in five animal and plant species in the U.S. at risk of extinction due to habitat loss and fragmentation, one of the simplest yet most effective things we

FIBERGLASS TANKS

can do is to provide them ample opportunity to move across lands and waters,” said Rep. Beyer. “The U.N. report on accelerating extinctions makes it clear that the window for action to protect the planet’s biodiversity is closing. We badly need to pass the Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act.” Wildlife corridors are critically important habitat areas that allow animals to move between areas of habitat, facilitating migration, range expansion, and mating. Protecting wildlife corridors also increases potential resiliency of animal populations in the face of changing landscapes and climate. The bill is supported by nationally recognized scientists, including Harvard’s Dr. E .O. W ilson, and over 220 prominent NGOs nationwide. The bill would also improve wildlife-related recreational opportunities and has received support from major outdoor brands, including Patagonia and Osprey Packs. Wildlife species in need of protected corridors include the pronghorn antelope, an important game species in the Southwest, whose survival depends upon the ability to migrate seasonally. Even small insects like the monarch butterfly need protected corridors to migrate up to 3,000 miles. It can take 3-4 generations to complete a full migration, and without protected places along the flyway for them to rest and reproduce, the species could be lost entirely. “The Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act will provide a crucial lifeline for many of America’s native species,” stated Rob Ament, Senior Conservationist at the Center for Large Landscape Conservation, “so they can safely move across America’s landscapes to meet their daily, seasonal and lifetime needs.”

JULY 2019

The WCCA guarantees that rural communities here in the Inland Northwest will increasingly become surrounded by lands identified as “essential” to the movement of large carnivores species (grizzly bears, mountain lions, wolves, wolverines, lynx, etc.) These movement corridors will come at the expense of other wildlife species, human safety, and private property rights. “Grizzly bears need room to roam… Grizzly bears don’t follow human boundaries, and often, our parks are simply too small for this wide-ranging species. When they venture outside of protected areas, they are hunted, hit by cars, or come into conflict with people. But just like how people need highways to get from one place to another safely, grizzly bears, and other species, need wildlife corridors to move from protected area to protected area in search of food and mates. The Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act would provide these essential paths, protect grizzlies and drivers from dangerous highway collisions, and help to reduce conflicts with people by giving grizzlies a safer route around cities and towns.” [Wildlands Network] Yes, highway wildlife crossings are certainly part of the sales pitch. We all want safer roads. Nobody in their right mind wants to collide with an animal on the highway. But the WCCA isn’t about traffic safety! It’s about adding yet another layer of burdensome regulations affecting thousands of square miles of America and changing how our society functions. As private property becomes increasingly useless due to new and more restrictive land use regulations, conservation easement programs may eventually become the only viable option for bankrupt land owners. The “Wildlife Movement Grant Program” and the “Wildlife Corridor Stewardship Fund” as outlined in the WCCA, will help insure the continued destruction of property rights in America.

New Mexico Oil & Gas Association Publishes Methane Mitigation Roadmap Analysis Will Help Guide Policymakers in Developing Regulatory Strategies to Further Reduce Methane Emissions

he New Mexico Oil & Gas Association (NMOGA) has published a Methane Mitigation Roadmap, outlining areas where industry and government can work together through cost-effective regulatory strategies to continue reductions in methane emissions. The roadmap identifies the four most reported sources of methane emissions from oil and natural gas production using EPA data and provides specific regulatory suggestions and considerations based on proven industry experience in reducing emissions and the best available science and peer-reviewed data. “There is nothing we value more than safeguarding the people and places we care about the most, and that means working continuously to protect the envi-

ronment and reduce and control methane emissions. It’s a responsibility we take personally,” said Ryan Flynn, NMOGA Executive Director. “We know that we have a responsibility to reduce our methane emissions and this report underscores we are in fact reducing emissions through responsible operations. We will continue collaborating with willing partners in the public and private sector, while investing in advanced technology and innovation to achieve even greater reductions in methane emissions.” The roadmap is grounded in the firstever analysis of New Mexico-based EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program data and is the most comprehensive dataset of state-level emissions available. From 2011 to 2017, the data shows that New Mexico methane emissions from oil and natural gas production decreased by 51 percent, or 378,025 to 182,924 Metric Tonnes methane. Combined oil and natural gas production climbed 31 percent over the same period to 392,176 Barrels of Oil Equivalent. The San Juan Basin reported the most dramatic decline as methane emissions collapsed by 55 percent, while combined oil and natural gas production fell 24 percent. In the Permian, where the industry’s growth has recently been the most significant, methane

emissions have fallen 35 percent while production has soared 101 percent. NMOGA’s roadmap includes analysis and recommendations for the four highest reported sources of methane emissions, including fugitive emissions, storage tanks, pneumatic devices, and liquids unloading operations. With appropriate regulatory flexibility, NMOGA’s roadmap outlines support for annual leak detection and repair with exemptions for low producing wells and facilities that are not required to obtain a Notice of Intent; storage vessel control requirements with appropriate thresholds; phase-out of high-bleed pneumatic controllers unless required for safety function; and, onsite monitoring of manual liquids unloading operations. NMOGA suggests that regulators recognize that many equipment sources are already subject to controls under federal New Source Performance Standards OOOO and OOOOa regulations. Additional layers of state regulations will impose further requirements and costs without attendant emission reductions, according to the report. Earlier this year, Governor Lujan Grisham tasked state agencies and regulatory bodies continued on page 36 >>

NM OIL & GAS << cont. from page 34 with identifying and crafting regulations to reduce methane emissions from oil and gas operations. Following Governor Lujan Grisham’s lead, the New Mexico Environment Department and New Mexico Energy, Minerals, & Natural Resources Department have initiated a process to develop strategies to reduce emissions, and both departments have planned joint stakeholder engagement meetings planned in Farmington, Albuquerque, and Carlsbad, later this summer. “New Mexico’s future shines brighter with a strong oil and natural gas industry. We are committed to safely and responsibly producing the energy we need along with critical funds and tax revenue that supports our communities, public schools, and first responders,” added NMOGA Chairman Claire Chase of Mack Energy Corporation. “A smart and balanced regulatory framework allows us grow our economy and protect our environment at the same time.” New Mexico is the third-largest oil producer in the United States, having cemented the position with rapidly increasing production in the Permian Basin. New Mexico oil producers are showing no signs of slowing down having reached an annual record of 250 million barrels of oil in 2018, an impressive increase of 46 percent over 2017 figures. New Mexico natural gas production is also on upswing, coming in at a ten-year high of 1,488,471 Million Cubic Feet for 2018. Increased oil and natural gas production has provided New Mexico with greater fiscal stability around the state and in the state capitol. A recent report in the Santa Fe New Mexican said New Mexico is on track to exceed FY 2020 spending by more than $1 billion, thanks to growing oil and natural gas production. The New Mexico Tax Research Institute also reports that New Mexico’s general fund and public schools benefit $2.2 billion from oil and natural gas taxes and revenues contributions. That includes $822 million in funding for public schools and nearly $241 million for the state’s universities, colleges, and other higher education institutions.

New Mexico Could Reap $1.3B Oil Windfall by Steve Terrell, sterrell@sfnewmexican.com

ith the oil boom in southeastern New Mexico still going strong — and money from oil and gas revenues continuing to gush into state government’s coffers — a leading legislative budget hawk said recently that if the price of oil doesn’t drastically change, the state could receive more than $1 billion in additional tax dollars next year. State Senate Finance Committee Chairman John Arthur Smith, D-Deming, told an interim legislative subcommittee on transportation that a windfall of $1.1 billion to $1.3 billion will occur “unless the international scene changes and the revenues fall.” Crude oil prices recently dipped to less than $50 a barrel, partly credited to fears of a trade war with China. But oil price rallied late in the week to more than $52 a barrel after the U.S. blamed Iran for attacks on two tanker ships near the Strait of Hormuz. David Abbey, director of the Legislative Finance Committee, said that formal revenue projections for next year will be available in August. A spokesman for Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said that the governor is eager to see those projections in August. “But if things hold, that would be a great source for funding early childhood education, economic development and diversification and other areas,” Tripp Stelnicki said. While most probably consider having billions of dollars in new cash to be good for the state, Smith warned all the extra

money could bring its own problems. “The more recurring [expenditures] we increase, the harder the fall’s going to be,” he said, recalling years in the not-too-distant past in which drops in oil and gas revenue led to severe state budget crunches. Transportation advocates are pushing for additional expenditures on state roads — aided by rosy projections about additional money. But Smith was wary, using school building projects in recent years as an example. “We threw so much money out there that the price kept going up. We’re running the same risks with transportation dollars,” Smith said. “We want to make sure we’re getting competitive bids.” In a news release, Senator Ron Griggs, R-Alamogordo, said large contractors already busy with construction projects “could likely increase their bids for additional projects, potentially making road construction more expensive than it already is.” Senate Republican Leader Stuart Ingle, R-Portales, agreed with Smith that lawmakers must be cautious in deciding how to use the anticipated budget bump. “All of this additional money could come with additional problems and the state needs to be watchful,” Ingle said. “The money needs to be invested responsibly and projects need to be ready to go, so these investment dollars do not sit idle for years and years.” Because the issue of the possible windfall arose at a meeting of a concerning transportation infrastructure, lawmakers’ initial ideas on what to do with the money dealt with roads and highway improvements. In a news release in early June, Senator Pat Woods, R-Broadview, picked up Smith’s discussion of trying to bring small road construction contractors back to the state. “Many have had to leave New Mexico searching for out-of-state work when they could not bid on large projects due to their limited bonding capacity,” he said. “We want them back. We want them back in the state building roads and bridges. Additional investment dollars could lure them back.” Smith at the meeting noted the state has about $10 million tied up in unspent funds dedicated to highway rest areas. In the current budget year, the Department of Transportation is spending $400 million in one-time funds for road projects, as well as $75 million in recurring funds. In April, Lujan Grisham signed a $7 billion budget — the largest in state history and an 11.6 percent increase in spending over the previous budget. The budget includes a reserve of about 20 percent.

Three Ways Consumers “Shop Their Values” by Amanda Radke, beefmagazine.com

survey of 2,100 consumers in 25 American cities revealed consumers feel a lot of guilt when shopping. This presents an interesting opportunity for beef producers who are willing to evolve and meet the demands of these consumers. Our society likes to “vote with our dollars,” and I do, too. I do my best to choose brands, companies, organizations, food labels and entertainment that aren’t inherently against modern agriculture and farming and ranching families like my own. I’m cognizant of my values when I shop, and today’s consumer is no different. In the grocery store, many of today’s consumers go beyond choosing for taste and price; they fill their carts with products that also reflect their personal beliefs and ethics. A recent survey conducted by Crestline revealed the trends of America’s shopping guilt as they struggle to “shop their values.” The survey asked 2,100 people in 25 cities across the United States about their buying habits. According to Crestline, “Shopping can be tough these days. Buying a chicken sandwich at the drive-thru might mean supporting a company with political views you either applaud or abhor. Drinking bottled water from an island in the South Pacific could be harming ecosystems half a world away. Wearing certain athletic shoes might be viewed as either a statement against racism or unpatriotic if the brand endorses athletes who kneel during the national anthem. And what if the company that makes your favorite deodorant tests its products on animals? “Trying to be an ethical consumer can be an emotional rollercoaster ride of feeling good when we support businesses that share our values, and guilty when we put convenience or price ahead of our beliefs. Most Americans understand that every time we fill our shopping carts, we’re rewarding different types of corporate behavior. But with limited time and money — and sometimes few product options — it can be hard to shop your values.”

JULY 2019

Here are three take-home messages from the survey, which could be helpful to the beef industry in better serving our customers: 1. Do consumers care? Crestline says yes. According to the report, “Our survey found that 68.3 percent of Americans want to use their power as consumers to support companies that share their social, political, and environmental values. Only 9.4 percent are uninterested in the ethics of companies they buy from.” 2. Which issues matter most to consumers? Crestline reports, “As the variety of specialty labels and health claims has grown — giving us ‘feel-good’ options for everything from coffee to dog shampoo — Americans have had to start prioritizing. We asked people about 11 common product claims. Surprisingly, ‘organic’ was the least important label for consumers. ‘Non-toxic’ was the most important.” Ranking these 11 product claims from most important to least, here is the list: nontoxic, cruelty-free, antibiotic/hormone-free, no artificial ingredients, free-range/cagefree, locally sourced, small business/locally owned, fair trade, made in the U.S., non-GMO and organic. 3. How do consumers feel about voting with their buying decisions? According to the report, “Without a doubt, shopping has become more complicated over the past generation. But most Americans are okay with that. When presented with the statement, ‘Shopping has become too complicated; there are too many choices,’ fewer than a third (31.2 percent) of our respondents agreed. “Most people said they regularly pay up to 10 percent more for goods that are ethically produced, better for the environment,

or made by a company that shares their values. When asked what their primary motivation was for paying extra, 37 percent said ‘it makes me feel good’ and 63 percent said ‘I believe it makes a difference.’ “Most consumers have also boycotted businesses because of behavior they disapprove of. The most common reasons for boycotts were harming the environment or treating employees unfairly.” The full survey results, which expand further into consumer perceptions on food labeling claims, production methods and more, can be read here: crestline.com/c/ consumer-guilt-and-buying-dilemmas. For me, the take-home message is some of these consumer perceptions may be misguided, but the customer is always right. So we can either bury our head in the sand about societal demands, or we can seize the opportunity to provide what our customer wants. So many lament that the beef industry production model is broken. Perhaps there is some truth to that, but maybe we are not seeing what lies in front of us — our consumers are saying they will willingly pay a premium for products that meet their ethics and personal values. They want more of our product and have the disposable income to buy it! Therein lies the opportunity for profit, so why aren’t more taking advantage of it? Check out this study and get to know who your customer really and truly is. They want to know more about animal welfare, environmental sustainability and antibiotic use. They care a little bit less about country of origin or organic. They really despise companies that mistreat animals or people. And they are eager to support producers who are doing it right. Are you ready to be that producer? Are you willing to evolve and adapt to meet the ever-changing consumer? It’s certainly something to think about. The opinions of Amanda Radke are not necessarily those of beefmagazine.com or Farm Progress.

Undercover Activist May Have Incited Abuse at Fair Oaks Farms: Media Reports by Rita Jane Gabbett, meatingplace.com

witness has stated that Fair Oaks Farms’ employees who were video recording undercover for the animal activist group Animal Recovery Mission (ARM) coerced their coworkers to perform the acts they recorded, according to multiple media reports. The Rensselaer Republican quoted Newton County Prosecuting Attorney Jeff Drinski as saying, “A third party witness has come forward to corroborate the allegations made by a suspect that the ARM employee encouraged or coerced the behavior depicted in the portions of the video that have been released publicly. Detectives continue to investigate these claims through additional interviews and written discovery.” The ARM video sparked an investigation and has so far resulted in a suspect being arrested and outstanding warrants for two more suspected of animal cruelty at Fair Oaks Farms, a dairy producer and popular agritourism destination in northern Indiana. Fair Oaks Farms founder Mike McCloskey, in a statement responding to the footage recently, said he was disgusted by the actions seen and took full responsibility. Four of five workers in the initial video released were employees of the farm, and the fifth worked for a transportation company. The company fired the employees identified in the video. In a pledge of accountability posted on its website, Fair Oaks Farms said it is commissioning an independent auditor to conduct frequent, unannounced audits at the farm. It is also installing camera surveillance and hiring a full-time animal welfare specialist to manage the company’s practices.

Hiring Employees in the Activist Age Source: AnimalAgAlliance.org

re the employees working on your farm or ranch there to help care for your animals? Do their goals align with your business? Unfortunately, it’s a common strategy for some animal rights activist organizations to have individuals go “undercover” on farms to record videos that can be taken out of context, stage scenes of animal mistreatment or encourage abuse to record it without doing anything to stop it. The Animal Ag Alliance, a non-profit dedicated to bridging the communication gap between farm and fork for more than thirty years, monitors animal rights activists and offers these tips regarding hiring: ЇЇ It is vital to thoroughly screen applicants, verify information and check all references. ЇЇ Be cautious of individuals who try to use a college ID, have out of state license plates or are looking for short-term work. ЇЇ During the interview, look for answers that seem overly rehearsed or include incorrect use of farm terminology. ЇЇ Search for all applicants online to see if they have public social media profiles or websites/blogs. Look for any questionable content or connections to activist organizations. ЇЇ Require all employees to sign your animal care policy. Provide training and updates on proper animal handling training. ЇЇ Require employees to report any mishandling to management immediately.

Watch out for red flags, such as coming to work unusually early or staying late and going into areas of the farm not required for their job. Always trust your gut – if something doesn’t seem right, explore it further. Be vigilant and never cut corners on your hiring process, even if you need to hire someone quickly. Doing your homework on every job applicant may be time-consuming, but it can ultimately save your business’s reputation. As always, it is important to work with local legal counsel to ensure compliance with federal and state laws for your hiring process. ЇЇ

RIDING HERD by Lee Pitts

y environmentalist neighbor has a real dilemma on his hands. He spent a wad of money covering the roof on his house with solar panels to generate enough electricity to power his house, lower his electric bill and advertise to his green buddies that he’s selling power back to the detestable electric utility company. Instead of paying a bill every month he actually expected to get money back from the bankrupt power company that provides our power. That was the theory anyway. Needless to say, it’s not working out exactly as planned. The problem is that since purchasing the house 20 years ago he’s planted milkweed for the Monarch butterflies, ripped out his lawn to save water, removed all fences so the invading hordes of deer would have free roaming and planted a row of pine

While New Mexico Farm & Livestock Bureau has been engaged in grassroots advocacy for over a hundred years, there are many new lawmakers who are not familiar with the needs of our state’s farmers, ranchers and rural community members. If we expect our representatives to understand agriculture in our state, we have to meet with them and share our concerns. I appreciate that Donald and Travis took the time to join the DC fly-in, that personal interaction makes a difference. Do you have issues at the county level that need to be addressed with policy? Please remember that we are quickly approaching our Annual Meeting and resolutions need to be submitted to the state office by October 25th (subject to change). Policies are vital since they direct the actions of our legislative director when addressing bills that will be proposed in next year’s legislative session. Thank you for all you do at the local and state level, and please let us know if you’d like to join the next DC Flyin. Until next time, do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly.

was surprised when I got a call from him wanting to know if I had a chain saw and if he could borrow it. I was hesitant to do so because the last time I loaned him my grinder and a cutting disk he nearly cut his hand off. He’s not exactly what you’d call a tool guy or an outdoorsman. My neighbor was very upset and really didn’t want to cut his trees down, “thereby creating an imbalance in the natural ecology of our community.” He’d even checked into hiring an arborist to move the trees but that was cost prohibitive so he decided to cut them down himself. I asked him why he didn’t just hire a tree company but he said they were his trees and he must do it himself. He didn’t want some stranger “putting them down.” He talked as if he was euthanizing an old dog or favorite horse. Putting them down himself was the only honorable thing to do. He later admitted that he’d seen how tree companies cut trees and he didn’t like the way they let branches fall to the ground and “get hurt.” So he got the needed permits from the county (it costs $200 per tree, seriously) and asked if he could borrow my chainsaw. I told him I was going to be gone but I’d leave it behind my front gate and he could just come and get it. In hindsight I should have left him the operator’s manual also because a couple days later he called and said my saw wasn’t working well and he’d only been able to cut off a couple limbs with it. I figured something must be wrong with the carburetor as it was always conking out. It could have also been old fuel or a bad spark plug. So I told him to leave it behind my gate and I’d give it a good tune up and leave it back behind the gate the next day. Two days later my neighbor called and said the saw wasn’t working any better. I was puzzled by this because it was working just fine for me, so I told him that I was in my shop so he should bring it back and we’d see what the problem was. So my neighbor shows up, thankfully not in his underwear, and I put the saw on the ground, pumped some gas into the carburetor and pulled on the cord the requisite ten times and, “Vroom, vroom,” it roared to life. My neighbor jumped back a few feet and said, “What’s that noise?”

Is White Meat Really More Healthful Than Red Meat? by Ana Sandoiu, www.medicalnewstoday.com Fact checked by Paula Field

ew research challenges the widespread belief that white meat, such as chicken, is better for cholesterol levels than red meat, such as beef, pork, or lamb. A new study breaks some bad news for meat eaters, as researchers find that white meat is just as harmful to cholesterol levels as red meat. The paper counters the widespread belief that white meat is more healthful than red. This belief relies on a variety of observational studies that have found a link between red meat intake and a higher risk

“

When we planned this study, we expected red meat to

have a more adverse effect on blood cholesterol levels than

white meat, but we were surprised that this was not the case — their effects on cholesterol are identical when saturated fat levels are equivalent.” —Dr. Ronald Krauss of cardiovascular disease. However, the authors of the new research argue that the connection between white meat and cholesterol has not received enough attention in specialized literature. So, a team of researchers — spearheaded by senior author Dr. Ronald Krauss, senior scientist and director of Atherosclerosis Research at the Children’s Hospital Oakland Research Institute in California — set out to investigate this link in more detail. Dr. Krauss and colleagues tested how different meat intakes affected the levels of lipids and lipoproteins that can cause fatty deposits to form on the arteries. They pub-

lished their findings in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Comparing meat and nonmeat intake The researchers divided healthy men and women into two groups, according to whether they regularly consumed high levels of saturated fatty acids or low levels of saturated fatty acids. Within these two arms of the study, the researchers randomly assigned the participants to a red meat group, a white meat group, and a nonmeat protein diet group. Within each group, the participants — who were 21–65 years old and had a body mass index of between 20–35 kilograms/ square meter — consumed the allocated foods for 4 weeks. After the intervention, the researchers measured low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol), levels of apolipoprotein B, small and medium LDL particles, as well as total and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (“good” cholesterol).

Red and white meat have ‘identical’ effects The study found that abstaining from eating meat altogether lowered blood cholesterol much more than researchers had previously believed. Consuming both red and white meat raised blood cholesterol levels more than consuming equivalent levels of plant-based proteins. “This was due primarily to increases in large LDL particles,” note the authors. The raised levels of cholesterol did not depend on whether the diets also had high levels of saturated fats. The senior author adds that non-meat protein sources, such as vegetables, dairy, and pulses, have the most beneficial effect on cholesterol levels. However, the authors also note that the study did not include grass-fed beef, fish, or processed meats. “The findings are in keeping with recommendations promoting diets with a high proportion of plant-based food but, based on lipid and lipoprotein effects, do not provide evidence for choosing white over red meat for reducing [cardiovascular disease] risk,” write the researchers. Dr. Krauss and colleagues conclude, “the present study is the first to show that both categories of meat protein result in LDL concentrations that are higher than those resulting from vegetable protein sources in otherwise comparable diets.”

Can Red Meat Reduce the Risk of MS?

by Yella Hewings-Martin PhD, medicalnewstoday.com, Fact checked by Paula Field

cientists have found a link between consumption of a daily portion of unprocessed red meat as part of a Mediterranean diet and a reduction in brain changes that precede MS. Around 1 million adults in the United States live with multiple sclerosis (MS). Scientists do not fully understand what causes the condition. Many believe that the body mounts an autoimmune attack on its central nervous system (CNS), damaging the protective myelin layer, which coats many neurons. The result is a diverse range of neurological symptoms. In the U.S., the chance of developing MS is 1 in 1,000 (0.1 percent) for the general population. This risk is greater for those with a first-degree relative with MS and stands at 2–4 percent, while people with an identical twin living with MS have a 30–50 percent risk of developing the condition. In some cases, changes in the brain appear years before a person notices any MS symptoms. A study in the journal Brain followed people for 10 years after they had received a brain MRI scan. Of the 81 participants, 83 percent of those with an abnormal brain scan that showed what experts call a first clinical diagnosis of central nervous system demyelination (FCD) developed MS during the follow-up period. Experts believe that risk factors for MS include environmental factors, such as diet. Now, researchers from the School of Public Health at Curtin University in Perth, Australia, present data on the influence of diet, specifically unprocessed red meat, on FCD in The Journal of Nutrition.

colleagues analyzed data from the AusImm u n e s t u d y, a m u l t i c e n t e r, case-control study. The dataset included 282 cases of people who had experienced FCD and 558 healthy controls. Black used the alternate Mediterranean diet score (aMED) to assess how strictly the study participants adhered to a Mediterranean diet. A score of 9 means the greatest adherence to the diet, while a score of 0 means little or no adherence. She also created an additional diet score called aMED-Red, with 1 point assigned to

those people who consumed around one serving of 65 grams (g) of unprocessed red meat, such as beef, lamb, pork, and veal. The team then divided the participants into four categories, as follows: category 1 (scores 0–2), category 2 (scores 3–4), category 3 (score 5), and category 4 (scores 6–9). Black found no association between the risk of FCD and the aMED score. However, when she compared the data of individuals in categories 2, 3, and 4 to those in category 1, the data revealed a reduced risk of FCD. “Red meat contains important macroand micronutrients, including protein, iron, zinc, selenium, potassium, vitamin D, a range of B-vitamins, and, for grass-fed beef, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids,” Black commented to MNT about her findings. “Many of these nutrients are important for healthy brain function, so it is not surprising to see this beneficial association between intake of unprocessed red meat continued on page 46 >>

and risk of MS,” she continued.

Findings most relevant to those ‘at high risk’ When Black dug deeper into the data to look at the different components that make up the aMED-Red scores, she found that unprocessed red meat was the only factor that produced a statistically significant effect on the risk of FCD. The team found that the participants’ reduction in the risk of FCD had close links to how much they adhered to the aMED-Red diet. The results show that those in category 2 had a reduction in risk by 37 percent, those in category 3 by 52 percent, and those in category 4 by 42 percent. For those with a first-degree relative living with MS, this would equal a reduction in risk from 2–4 percent to 1–2.5 percent and for those with an identical twin with MS from 30–50 percent to 14–32 percent. Black previously published results utilizing data from the AusImmune study, which showed a 50 percent reduction in risk of FCD in participants who ate a healthful diet. Also, earlier this year, Black published results on the consumption of red meat as a standalone factor, not as part of a Mediterranean diet, and FCD risk. However, not all agree that red meat has links to health benefits. Indeed, the World Health Organization (WHO) classified red meat as “probably carcinogenic” to humans in 2015. Earlier this year, researchers found that people who ate small amounts of unprocessed red meat, amounting to 65 g or less per day, had a moderately higher risk of death. Dietary choices are complex and include personal preferences, cultural influences, and socioeconomic factors. There is plenty of evidence that links a healthful diet to long-term health outcomes. How prominently unprocessed red meat will feature in the prevention of MS remains to be seen.

Vegetarians are ‘Less Healthy & Have Lower Quality of Life Than Meat-Eaters’, Scientists Say Controversial study suggests nonmeat eaters are more at risk of physical and mental illness, despite leading healthier lifestyles Source: independent.co.uk

egetarians are less healthy than meat-eaters, a controversial study has concluded, despite drinking less, smoking less and being more physically active than their carnivorous counterparts. A study conducted by the Medical University of Graz in Austria found that the vegetarian diet, as characterized by a low consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, due to a higher intake of fruits, vegetables and whole-grain products, appeared to carry elevated risks of cancer, allergies and mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. The study used data from the Austrian Health Interview Survey to examine the dietary habits and lifestyle differences between meat-eaters and vegetarians. The 1320 subjects were matched according to their age, sex, and socioeconomic status and included 330 vegetarians, 330 that ate meat but still a lot of fruits and vegetables, 300 normal eaters but that ate less meat, and 330 on a more meat-heavy diet. It found that vegetarians consumed less alcohol and had lower body mass indexes, but were still in a poorer state of physical and mental health overall. Participants who ate less meat also had poorer health practices, such as avoiding attending doctors appointments for preventative check-ups and measures such as

vaccines, the authors found.

The 1320 subjects were matched according to their age, sex, and socioeconomic status and included 330 vegetarians, 330 that ate meat but still a lot of fruits and vegetables, 300 normal eaters but that ate less meat, and 330 on a more meat-heavy diet. It found that vegetarians consumed less alcohol and had lower body mass indexes, but were still in a poorer state of physical and mental health overall. Participants who ate less meat also had poorer health practices, such as avoiding attending doctors appointments for preventative check-ups and measures such as vaccines, the authors found.

A table of results from the study carried out by the Institute for Social Medicine and Epidemiology (IFES) at the Medical University (Med-Uni) in Graz, Austria.

It concluded: “Our study has shown that Austrian adults who consume a vegetarian diet are less healthy (in terms of cancer, allergies, and mental health disorders), have a lower quality of life, and also require more medical treatment.” The study’s authors have already defended the research against claims that their work is simply an advertisement for the meat industry. Study coordinator and epidemiologist Nathalie Burkert told The Austrian Times: “We have already distanced ourselves from this claim as it is an incorrect interpretation of our data. “We did find that vegetarians suffer more from certain conditions like asthma, cancer and mental illnesses than people that eat meat as well, but we cannot say what is the cause and what is the effect. “There needs to be further study done before this question can be answered.”

an you taste the difference? Appearing on the June 28, 2019 AgriTalk, University of California/Davis professor Frank Mitloehner said the ingredients in two of America’s leading plant-based alternative proteins are quite similar to those found in dog food. Explaining to rather stunned AgriTalk host Chip Flory, Mitloehner said, “When you look at Impossible Burger or Beyond Meat, you will find that they have 21 or 22 highly-processed ingredients. In fact, so processed that you are hard pressed in identifying the difference between those items, versus let’s say, pet food.” On his Twitter account (@GHGGuru), Mitloehner posted a trivia question asking viewers if they could distinguish the ingredients for the Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat, and a specific brand of dog food. He said the tweet received thousands of responses, most with the wrong answer. A couple of years ago Mitloehner said he ate dinner at a National Academy of Sciences event with Patrick Brown, the founder of Impossible Foods. At the time, Mitloehner said Brown confessed to eating dog food and called the ingredients wholesome. “I thought he was joking,” Mitloehner said, “until I did a little research and compared his burger versus Beyond Burger versus dog (food). And guess what? I would not be able to tell the difference. Which is just testament to me that they are actually making something that from a nutritional basis might not be very different from dog food. Then adding the flavors and the taste and the smell and, viola, there is your plantbased alternative to the real thing.” Flory noted that recent news articles painted Impossible Foods’ CEO Brown as very anti-animal agriculture. “There’s no question his declared mission is to end animal agriculture by 2035,” Mitloehner said. He has ways to go because his market share is very small at this point. If I were to have a look into my crystal ball, I would say that most likely the big ones will swallow some of the small ones, so to say, and there will be a lot of cannibalism across the terms of plant based segment. And we will see whether or not he succeeds in ending animal agriculture. I know what my bets on.” Mitloehner says he is not against alter-

Meat in the Middle

Blended Options Join Eaters in Sustainability Contributing Author: Katherine Walla

hile vegans and vegetarians already see plant-based meats go mainstream, semi-vegetarians—or flexitarians—find new blended meats appearing on market shelves. Recently spearheaded by companies like Tyson Foods, Inc. and Perdue, the blended meat products combine meat with plant-based ingredients. To deliver blended-meat products, Tyson Foods built the Raised & Rooted brand. Initial products include plant-based nuggets and blended burgers featuring a blend of pea protein and other plant ingredients. The company’s already-established brand Aidells will launch a line of “Whole Blends” including blended chicken and plant-based sausages and meatballs. The newest products will release incrementally beginning late this summer and continuing into the fall, just after Tyson Foods sold its 6.52 percent share in Beyond Meat in April 2019. Tyson Foods’ announcement on June 13 recognizes a segment of the consumer market that still consumes meat but desires alternative protein options for health benefits. According to Tyson Foods, the blends will have fewer calories and less saturated fat; the nuggets also contain more omega-3s and more fiber. Although plant-based meat accounts for just under one percent of all retail meat dollar sales, the Good Food Institute indicates that 11.9

percent of all United States households purchased plant-based meat over a year—and the number is increasing. “There’s a lot of messaging that plants are powerful. It feels like something that gives you a quick fix, something is really good for you,” says Melanie Bartelme, a global food analyst with the consulting firm Mintel. According to Mintel’s 2018 report Plant-Based Proteins in the U.S., 88 percent of U.S. consumers identify plantbased proteins as healthy options. While Tyson Foods is the latest company to tap into the market, the announcement follows Perdue’s announcement only a day earlier. Perdue, a major chicken, turkey, and pork producing company, is not only appealing to the plant-based food trend, but also hopes that the blended nuggets, tenders, and patties help flexitarian families get their children to eat vegetables. “Not only are we helping to meet demands for millions of parents but we are appealing to the growing number of flexitarian families who have an increased commitment to getting more plants and vegetables in their families’ diets,” says Eric Christianson, Perdue’s Chief Marketing Officer. Through a partnership with The Better Meat Co., Perdue’s blends deemed “Chicken Plus” will feature cauliflower, chickpeas, and other plant proteins. Each serving of product also includes a half-serving of vegetables. Perdue will officially release the products in September 2019. While the blended options may not satisfy the concerns of people eating plant-based meats to challenge the livestock industry’s treatment of animals, they may appeal to those choosing flexitarian diets for the environmental benefits. Partially replacing meat with plant-based ingredients can help consumers limit their contributions to diet-related greenhouse gases by up to 15 percent. According to the World Resources Institute (WRI), replacing every burger Americans eat with burgers that are 30 percent plant-based may conserve 83 billion gallons of water per year, equivalent to 2.6 million American’s yearly household water use, and reduce agricultural land demand by 14,000 square miles, an area larger than the state of Maryland. Tyson Foods and Perdue may be the most recent participants in blended meat, but companies and organizations already entered the market—which can amount to a US$140 billion market over the next decade, according to analysts from Barclays. WRI’s Better Buying Lab worked with companies and partners in the culinary world to scale a beef and mushroom burger that meets consumer demand for sustainable foods—while maintaining a meaty taste and texture. Food services provider Sodexo, member of the Better Buying Lab, started blending mushrooms into burgers as early as 2016 and announced the meat in burger form, called “The Natural.” The food chain Sonic also debuted a menu featuring burgers, 25 to 30 percent made up with mushrooms. The James Beard Foundation’s Blended Burger Project strives to improve burgers not only in sustainability, but also in flavor by challenging restaurants to develop and sell a blended burger consisting at least 25 percent mushrooms. The fifth annual project ends July 31, 2019 and awards US$5,000 to five winning chefs with the best recipes. “We wanted to show that non-commercial food service can do it just as well,” says Justin Robinson, a participating chef in St. Petersburg, FL. “The blend allowed us to offer our clients a burger that is healthier, more sustainable, and delicious to boot. It also didn’t hurt that it was outselling our regular menu burger nearly two to one.”

e try to be faithful recyclers around the house. I make regular runs to town with the pickup full of newspapers, bottles, aluminum cans, cardboard boxes and tin. I take old pipe and steel to the scrap metal yard and buy car parts at G & B Salvage. Yesterday I noticed our toilet paper was labeled “100 percent unbleached, 100 percent recycled paper, 100 percent post consumer content and 59.4 sq. ft. in total area.” It’s a little like newsprint and I feel odd using toilet paper somebody else had used but I guess we’re doin’ the right thing. Sister Sue said they were using it, too. But it struck her as one of the incongruities of modern times that recycled toilet paper costs more than a roll of the new. I remember the same thing happened with gasoline when they introduced unleaded. It cost more than regular to which they had to add the lead. How ‘bout sugarless gum? Bottled water? Egg substitutes? Hamburger Helper costs more per pound than hamburger. Are we being skewered on our noble quest to be green and healthy? Several years ago the cattle business went on a binge to recycle manure and feed it back to the steers. Concrete pens, elaborate washing systems, dryers and millions of dollars yielded us a product with the nutrition and palatability of bedding for the price of caviar. The trend towards lean beef gives me second thoughts, as well. Just looking at a hubcap size Holstein round steak, you realize God intended it for taco meat. But if that same steak goes into a specialty health food meat counter it costs twice as much. It is labeled Au Bouf DeLite and guaranteed to contain less than .01 percent fat. Cooking instructions are explicit: Boil for three days and pound until flat as hammered gravy. My mother saved and reused tin foil, wax paper, jelly glasses, bacon fat, soup bones, old bananas, cloth diapers, baby clothes, string, ribbon, wrapping paper and cottage cheese containers. There are still those around who straighten and reuse old nails, buckets of bolts, fence wire and lumber. Maybe, in truth, if you counted the labor,

The Cost of Recycling it costs more to straighten old nails than to buy new ones. But thriftiness forced recycling. Today the high cost of recycled, sugarless, lean, unleaded products is the price we pay to do our part in makin’ the

So when pondering the use of environmentally correct antique toilet paper we can envision the historical significance and gain some satisfaction knowing this same paper might have been used by Davy Crockett, Oprah Winfrey or Chief Sitting Bull. And if that don’t make it worth the price I’ll send you some slightly used corn cobs.

Colorado May Go All in on Gambling to FundConservation

Jeremy P. Jacobs, E&E News reporter

an sports gambling save Colorado’s water? Governor Jared Polis (D) and the state Legislature are betting it can. They have passed and signed a bill that puts the question of legalizing sports gambling to Colorado voters on a ballot measure this November. Proposition DD would impose a 10 percent tax on gambling proceeds. A big chunk of that money would go to implementing the state’s water plan. The measure has received scant attention, but it has sparked controversy in the environmental community — including charges that it greenwashes the politically and morally sticky gambling issue. Backers say the revenues would help close a roughly $100-million-per-year shortfall in the water plan budget. And they note that there is precedent in the state for this type of measure: Revenues from the state lottery are used in wilderness and outdoor programs. “The realities that Colorado’s budget is that it’s often hard to find dollars for projects that have the size and scope of water,” said state Senator Kerry Donovan (D), a sponsor of the measure. “This will give us an ability to build up financial resources to fund the water plan.” But Gary Wockner of Save the Colorado, which opposes the water plan generally, said linking the measure to sports betting is a political ploy. “If you are going to greenwash sports betting,” he said, “you make it about the water plan and you leave out two-thirds of what the water plan is going to do, which is dam and drain rivers.” Not all environmental groups oppose the effort as Wockner does, and some, including the Environmental Defense Fund, support it. But further complicating matters is a new public education campaign aimed at raising awareness of water issues in Colorado. “For the Love of Colorado” went live last month and, like the ballot measure, explicitly supports the Colorado Water Plan. The campaign is backed by myriad stakeholders, including EDF, American Rivers, water districts, the Colorado Cattlemen’s Association and the Colorado Contractors

spent and who would make spending decisions. It is also unclear who would run the campaign to support the measure. No campaign has been registered with the Colorado secretary of state, even though the measure will be on the ballot in three months. Proponents expect the sports betting industry to step up and fund a campaign, and some environmental groups, including EDF, are expected to support it. The goal of the campaign will be to cement in voters’ minds that the money from sports betting will go to water issues. They will likely draw on the success of Great Outdoors Colorado, an initiative launched in 1992 that has spent $1.2 billion in proceeds from the state lottery on wilderness and recreation. Backers predict sports betting could be a $100-million-per-year industry, potentially creating up to $10 million per year for the water plan. Wockner, of Save the Colorado, has registered a campaign opposing the measure. He casts the ballot measure as an attempt to force taxpayers to foot the bill for climate change and its impact on the state’s water supply. “This referendum is an extreme assault

on climate justice,” Wockner said in an email. “It’s the fossil fuel corporations that have caused the damage — they should be taxed to pay for climate damage, not the citizens of Colorado.” Jackson, of EDF, said the state — and voters — must do something to address the

water and budget shortfall. The ballot measure aims to fill that gap. “We have to figure out a way to close the supply-and-demand gap in a way that protects and keeps Colorado the Colorado we know and love,” he said, “with healthy rivers, clean drinking water and abundant recreation.”

Western Dairy Center Announces New Director

tah State University is pleased to announce Dr. Eric Bastian as the new director of the Western Dairy Center. As vice president of industry relations for Dairy West, Dr. Bastian worked with former WDC director Donald McMahon in 2012 to develop the BUILD Dairy program (Building University and Industry Linkages through learning and Discovery). Dr. Bastian, who led the research and development team at Glanbia Nutritionals for 18 years and hired many WDC graduates, became acutely aware of the decline in dairy scientists as he was trying to fill roles that were often open for a year due to lack of candidates. He also found that recruiting students from the Midwest or eastern part of the U.S. didn’t fully compensate for the need, especially when many of those people returned “home” after a few years of working. After helping to secure $2.3 million in funding by 2018, Dr. Bastian helped increase the number of USU student-researchers and research projects through the BUILD Dairy program.

JULY 2019

Dairy West CEO Karianne Fallow said Dr. Bastian’s work with local processors and universities in bringing funding, projects and students to the Western Dairy Center is invaluable. “We are thrilled that Eric has been named the center’s incoming director and look forward to the increased benefit this center and the BUILD Dairy program can offer to the dairy industry, regionally, nationally and globally,” Fallow said. Charles Carpenter, professor and head of the Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Food Sciences at USU, said he is excited to continue working with an innovative leader such as Bastian in the dairy industry. “Dr. Bastian was instrumental in conceptualizing and bringing to reality the center’s BUILD Dairy program with a goal to build university and industry linkages through learning and discovery,” Carpenter said. “I look forward to Eric’s visionary leadership to expand the reach and impacts of the WDC and its BUILD Dairy program.” Dr. Bastian said he is excited to continue working with high-quality students in dairy research and developing future innovators and leaders in the dairy industry. “I believe that the dairy industry will flourish as it embraces innovation in products, processes and packaging,” Dr. Bastian said. “Those innovations will depend on future leaders that we are developing in the BUILD Dairy Program which operates within the Western Dairy Center.” Dr. Bastian was born in central Utah and raised on a dairy farm. He earned his edu-

cation at Utah State University with a bachelor’s degree in dairy science, and M.S. and Ph.D. (1989) degrees in nutrition and food sciences. He did post-doctoral work in Denmark at the Danish Government Dairy Research Institute and Utah State University (1989-1992). Dr. Bastian is married, has five children, and lives in Twin Falls, Idaho.

Feds Fight Sierra Club at 9th Circuit

Ellen M. Gilmer, E&E News reporter

awyers for the Sierra Club and the federal government spent an hour and a half fighting over President Trump’s border wall in late June. In the final minutes of arguments before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Justice Department attorney James Burnham laid out stark contrasts between the two sides’ goals. “Here, the government’s interest is in stopping drug smuggling at the first- and third-highest drug trafficking corridors on the international border with Mexico, where hundreds of pounds of drugs are coming through every year,” he said. The Sierra Club’s interest, he continued, “appears to be hiking and fishing and the like on the international border with Mexico in drug smuggling corridors where there are already vehicle barriers.” That’s one way to frame the litigation. The Sierra Club describes it as a critical fight over the scope of executive power and one with serious on-the-ground impacts. “The catastrophe of Trump’s national emergency declaration goes beyond the ideological; the harm of illegally transferring billions of dollars from the military to fund more border walls will be concrete and devastating,” Dan Millis, who heads the group’s Borderlands program, said in a statement. The question for the 9th Circuit is whether to allow the Trump administration to start work on two border wall projects that were temporarily halted by a lower court within the last couple months. The U.S. District Court for the Northern

District of California issued a preliminary injunction for work near Yuma, Ariz., and southern New Mexico after finding the Trump administration may have violated the law when the president diverted money from certain military accounts to fund the wall (Greenwire, May 28). The 9th Circuit is considering whether to suspend that injunction while it takes a closer look at the legal issues.

Second-guessing the experts? The three-judge panel had tough questions for both sides. It wrestled with whether the Sierra Club’s claims should be reviewed under the Constitution or a provision of the 2019 Department of Defense Appropriations Act. The Sierra Club and the Southern Border Communities Coalition have argued that Trump violated Section 8005 of the law, which allows the government to transfer money from certain accounts to fund “higher priority items, based on unforeseen military requirements,” but not where Congress has already denied such a request. Congress already rejected the Trump administration’s request for extensive border wall funding, leading to the longest government shutdown in the nation’s history. The president then issued an emergency order to move the money from the Defense Department. Government lawyers say the border projects underway now are different from what was requested from Congress and therefore don’t violate Section 8005. Senior Judge Richard Clifton, a George W. Bush appointee, and Judge Michelle Friedland, an Obama appointee, questioned that logic, noting it would allow the administration to simply repackage the border wall as an outdoor movie screen or safety fencing for children to avoid triggering the law’s prohibition on bucking a congressional denial. The government’s many legal arguments included a contention that the court must view the Sierra Club’s case as a statutory fight, not a constitutional one, and a separate assertion that the group’s claims fall outside the “zone of interest” of Section 8005 — meaning they can’t be litigated. “Or what I think the administration might be doing is read 8005 out altogether by basically saying, ‘Well, you can only bring a challenge under 8005 and nobody can bring a challenge under 8005, so we’re unchallengeable,’” Clifton said. Senior Judge Randy Smith, meanwhile, said the case could instead be treated as an

Administrative Procedure Act dispute. There, the Bush appointee would be inclined to give the Trump administration deference. “It seems to me that I’m second-guessing the agency charged to determine what is best for the national interest,” he told American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Dror Ladin, who represented the Sierra Club. A decision is expected in the coming weeks, or the court could ask the parties to submit additional briefs. Meanwhile, the Sierra Club has asked the

lower court to block other border projects in California and Arizona, which would include sections in the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge; Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument; San Pedro River; San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge; and El Centro, Calif., valley. Other border wall litigation is pending in district courts in California, Texas and Washington, D.C.

A personal run-in with a The major new effort started in January 2017 and the formula Dannels adopted is simple: Place hundreds of cameras to detect traffickers and smugglers, catch them, and prosecute them. “We put our cameras in areas where Border Patrol wasn’t going,” he said. “We went to the river areas, we went into the mountain areas, we went to the desert areas. And this is based on intel from our ranchers and our community folks saying, ‘We have a problem on our property.’ We’ve gone to private lands and we put those cameras strategically in areas where it helps identify the smugglers.” The sheriff’s border team, called SABRE (Southeastern Arizona Border Region Enforcement), run by Sgt. Tim Williams, has placed 400 trail cameras in the county so far—with an estimated 700 to be up and running by year’s end. Daric & Patty Knight The money for the cameras was raised from private donations—Dannels refuses Springerville, Arizona Daric & Patty Knight to accept government money, with strings c: 928-521-9897 • h: 928-333-3600 attached, to expand the program. Springerville, Arizona Daric & Patty Knight c: 928-521-9897 • h: 928-333-3600 The SABRE team piloted a test on rancher John Ladd’s land that shares 10.5 miles of Springerville, Arizona border with Mexico border—from the Naco international port of entry to the San Pedro 928-521-9897 • h: 928-333-3600 River (which runs from Mexico into the United States). The border line has a legacy bollard fence from 2006 that contains several sets of floodgates embedded into the bottom of it that are left open from July 1 to October 1 every year. When open, the gates leave four gaps, each about 7 feet high and 6 feet wide. The fence stops altogether at the river. “The biggest thing that we dealt with was backpacking drugs—the 50- to 70-pound bundles on the back,” Dannels said. He said countywide, Ladd’s ranch was probably the most impacted by smuggling, but the pilot program brought it to a halt. “There were 37 experienced smugglers [on his property] that are now sitting in prison,” Dannels said.

Mexican cartel only cemented his motivation to rid his county of cross-border crime. Five years ago, Dannels’s son, Sierra Vista police officer Justin Dannels, fatally shot a man allegedly connected to the Sinaloa cartel when the man tried to run him over during a traffic stop. The following day, Dannels and his son both received threatening phone calls from Mexico. Then cartel members showed up in the sheriff’s backyard at midnight. “Hell of a scary. But, I’ll tell you, if you run from them, you’re no better than they are,” Dannels said on May 5. “Long story short is, we really took a deep

Seeing immediate success, the program continued to expand and became fully operational in August 2017. Interdictions of illegal aliens and drugs increased as cameras caught more activity. The SABRE team has two National Guard members watching the cameras 24/7 and another two analyzing the footage and photos that are captured. Some trends started emerging, according to Williams. The cartel significantly increased their scouting operations, drug smuggling routes were changed, drug mules were now being recruited from outside the local area, and drug smuggling routes turned into human smuggling routes. “We’ve seen well over 2,000 illegal aliens on the cameras, over 170 drug mules,” Williams said. “It’s still mostly marijuana that we’re seeing being smuggled across the border. They’ve gotten away from doing the big, long 20-people trains. It’s all pretty small stuff that we’re seeing.” He said his team will carry out the interdiction if it’s drug smuggling; however, they have to call in Border Patrol for human smuggling, as that’s a federal issue. The overall catch rate has increased from about 16 percent to about 60 percent, and with 100 percent prosecution for drug smugglers, Dannels said the cartel has started moving its drug operations to avoid his county. “If we see you on camera, it’s a good chance we’re going to get you. And then you’re going to prison from there,” he said. “What we’re seeing now is not a lot of drugs, but a lot of the human smuggling, and we turn that over to Border Patrol.”

100 Percent Conviction The footage from the cameras provide hard evidence in court, contributing to the county’s high conviction rate, to which Dannels credits the county attorney as a vital part of the program’s success. But, Dannels said, he has weathered a lot of criticism over it, especially when he started jailing juveniles. The cartel was using juveniles to smuggle drugs—mostly through the port of entry at Naco—knowing that the federal government wouldn’t prosecute them. “It’s not that they can’t, they don’t. They don’t have the resources, or the will, or whatever,” Dannels said. “So now we have a program where we said we will take them. Any juvenile between the ages of 14 to 17, we take them all.

NEW MEXICO FEDERAL LANDS NEWS by Frank Dubois

Law enforcement capers and Forest Service job corps forever

Unlawful law enforcement

arjorie Haun at Free Range Report broke the story that on June 13, William Woody, director of BLM’s Office of Law Enforcement Services (OLES), had his gun and badge stripped from him and that he was escorted out of the Department of the Interior headquarters in Washington, D.C. Woody had previously worked for BLM, was then transferred to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and then transferred back to the BLM in 2017. According to Haun’s source, Woody was pushed out of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service “amid allegations of lavish travel spending and arbitrary pay hikes of all agents under his supervision.” Haun reports that Woody, “reportedly buys the loyalty (and silence) of his agency underlings with unwarranted promotions and fat salaries. According to our informant he is in the process of upgrading all his 60-odd investigators from GS-12’s to GS-13’s. With their special salary rate included, that’s a $17,347 raise per person. He also promoted 15 or so supervisory investigators, all earning $128,882 as GS-14’s ($19,817 raise) and two additional GS-15’s, who received a $22,718 raise, which equates to an expenditure of $1,383,511 in additional tax dollars spent each year.” Haun also informs us of other Woody activities over the years that have caused concern: overruling a senior law enforcement official on a hiring decision so he could bring in a female with whom he reportedly had a “relationship”; misuse of a government vehicle while working in D.C.; illegally hiring a female staffer at a top federal pay grade to handle his public relations disasters; and extensive and unnecessary travel for meetings, often with with large groups, and visits to sportsman’s shows and other unofficial activities. You will remember Dan Love (extrava-

gant expenses at Burning Man and the abuses and bungling of the Bundy case) and how pleased we were when he was removed from office by former Secretary Zinke. Well not so fast. Haun reports that Woody, “helped Dan Love receive a medical retirement instead of being fired.” I have a copy of the memo to William Woody, signed by Casey Hammond, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary. It is dated June 11, 2019 and only mentions the use of a government-owned vehicle for home-towork commuting from July of 2017 to June of 2018. It states this was done without authorization and that Woody knew he needed approval to do this and acknowledged that he had not done so. Further Hammond states, “I find your presence in the workplace during the investigation period…will jeopardize legitimate Agency interests” and placed him on paid administrative leave. The Office of the Inspector General has already highlighted the government vehicle issue, so no one seems to know what the “ongoing investigations” are mentioned by Hammond in the memo. Many folks with experience at Interior believe there must be something else going on, beyond the vehicle use. What is clear to me is that the BLM has chosen to create a huge law enforcement bureaucracy that goes beyond the original intent of Congress. Section 303(c)(1) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act states: “When the Secretary determines that assistance is necessary in enforcing Federal laws and regulations relating to the public lands or their resources he shall offer a contract to appropriate local officials having law enforcement authority within their respective jurisdictions with the view of achieving maximum feasible reliance upon local law enforcement officials in enforcing such laws and regulations.” Please note the maximum feasible reliance upon local law enforcement officials. Does anyone believe the BLM has complied with this language? How much of the annual law enforcement budget is actually contracted out to local officials? Considering the example after example of mismanagement and abuse that has occurred, it is time the Department of Interior get this beast under control and the quickest way to do that is to comply with the clear intent of Congress.

Smokey and the welfare bandits In late May, Secretary of Agriculture

Perdue announced the USDA had decided to end a U.S. Forest Service work program that trains at-risk youth. The program — known for operating the Job Corps Civilian Conservation Centers — was to be transferred to the Labor Department. Forest Service Chief Vicki Christianson told employees, “Perdue has a goal of efficient and effective government,” adding that the secretary believes the mission of the program better aligns with the Labor Department. In a letter to the Labor Department, Perdue wrote the move would help the Forest Service prioritize its “core natural resource mission to improve the condition and resilience of our nation’s forests, and step away from activities and programs that are not essential to that core mission.” As part of the move, nine of the 25 job corps centers were to be shut down. Hooray for Secretary Perdue. I’ve had personal experience with this program, as they built a trick tank on our allotment. First, there was the Forest Service. We asked they put the trick tank on a ridge where we could have gravity flow in all directions. Instead, the Forest Service had them place the tank where the flow was in only one direction. Thus began a huge waste of resources. Then there was the construction of the trick tank, which seemed like it took forever. We noticed there was never the same number of job corps members at the worksite. We also took note that of those present, not all of them worked. Some would be sitting under a tree, while others remained in the government van that had brought them there. Finally, my cousin asked the foreman why this was the case. He replied that it was totally up to each job corps member whether or not they left their rooms in Mountainair and reported for work on any particular day. He also said that after they reached the worksite, it was up to each job corps member if they worked the full day, a few hours or not at all. This was my first exposure as a youngster to a government jobs program. And here we are six decades later with essentially the same wasteful entity. Alas, as I finish writing this column, Secretary Perdue has withdrawn his proposal for further review. The Trump administration received pushback on the issue from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Senator Steve Daines (R-Mont.), Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-Wash.) and the labor union that represents Forest Service employees.

Republicans have joined with unions to prevent “efficient and effective” government. No wonder we are in such a mess at the national level. We have gravity flow in only one direction – more spending and more waste. Until next time, be a nuisance to the devil and don’t forget to check that cinch.

have an entire list of things that I wonder about, so I will just give you the short version in this article; otherwise, you would be reading for days. I was hoping that maybe, some of you would have answers for me. Rarely do I analyze events, but today it seems to be in my head. I have noticed there are many thousands of painted pictures of Jesus Christ. That only makes sense because he has been the most popular figure in the world down through the ages. In the majority of those old pictures, there is always a sheep or a shepherd included. Now, I realize that sheep were the livestock of choice in his area and artists are trying to be accurate in their depictions, but

However, like anyone you may find a few things that you don’t agree with, but the majority of it you will. Things change as time goes on, but basics really do not. Probably the first thing you ought to learn about training horses is this little tidbit: “Now, whereas the gods have given men the power of instructing one another in their duty by word of mouth, it is obvious that you can teach a horse nothing by word of mouth. If, however, you reward him when he behaves as you wish, and punish him when he is disobedient, he will best learn his duty.” He also goes on to talk about the value of the chirp and the cluck when training a horse. You can learn a lot from this man of Athens, so give it a go. There are good reasons to be an occasional historian. One is to continue good ideas, and the other is to eliminate bad ones. You will learn many things reading the works of Xenophon. I always read that the Ancient Egyptians were great farmers. Their farming knowledge is astounding and there is a lot written about it. Those guys built their calendar around the Nile River and basically divided it into three seasons. The first season was known as the Aknet and was the time of flooding. The second season they called Peret, and that was the

growing season. The third season was known as the Shemu, and it was the harvest season. This was a very simple system, but one that worked, as they tended to be very successful at it. Wheat was their primary crop along with barley, flax, melons, figs, vegetables, and fruit such as grapes and pomegranates. Of course, they made their famous linens from the flax they grew. They figured out how to make beer from the wheat and barley. Since farming was just as seasonal then as it is now, they took time during the flooding season to drink beer, and repair equipment. Since they used lots of slaves it was probably a good time to let them rest up some before the next Peret. However, there are many accounts where the farmers just gave them other jobs during the Aknet. I am curious about that. I wonder if the farmers saw the advantage of treating them well so they would work well or if they had so many that they just worked them into the ground? Whatever their system, it was successful and innovative for many years. Let’s fast forward to present day and our quest to build a border wall between the United States and Mexico. I think the fact that it works is indisputable. Take the wall

between El Paso, Texas and Juarez, Chihuahua. The murder rate is 10 times more in the Mexican city than in the American city and they are only a few feet apart divided by a wall. It is a pretty simple concept to comprehend. Of course, those infected with the social disease of extreme liberalism cannot understand facts, only platitudes that empower themselves. We have gone from times where we were all Americans first, putting the general welfare of the country before our own agendas. What happened to that America? Times have changed and we have a political party in the United States that gains power only through massive illegal immigration. Independent farmers, ranchers, cowboys, horseshoers, veterinarians, and other agricultural folks that have been involved in being Americans for generations are now in jeopardy as evidenced by the newest government in New Mexico. The new history will not be good if we allow these politicians to become successful in our oppression. The bankrupt and highly taxed state of California should be plenty of a warning. We cannot let this nonsense continue.

NEW MEXICO’S OLD TIMES & OLD TIMERS by Don Bullis, New Mexico Author DonBullis.biz

y the turn of the century in 1901, it had been more than a half-century since the Americans occupied Santa Fe and yet statehood for New Mexico remained far out of reach. The perception in the eastern United States seems to have been that the territory was a lawless place, rife with crime and criminals. To the east and south, the Texas Rangers had evolved into a functional statewide law enforcement agency and many outlaws of the day moved elsewhere because of them. In Arizona, the Ranger force was created in 1901, and soon criminals there looked for greener pastures, too. Colorado, a state since 1876, was not friendly to the lawless element, either. Right in the geographical middle was New Mexico, a large, sparsely populated region with a thin patchwork of law enforcement officials, a place where cattle rustling in particular was rampant. In the late 1890s, some New Mexico ranchers began to talk about a territory-wide law enforcement agency and in January 1905, a group of them met with Governor Miguel A. Otero and suggested that New Mexico needed a group much like those in Texas and Arizona. Otero agreed and included the proposal in his message to the Territorial Assembly. Colonel W. H. Greer, a rancher and member of the Territorial Council, carried the bill through passage on February 15. Greer, of Bernalillo County, much admired the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and he therefore favored Mounted Police as the name of the New Mexico agency. He also argued that New Mexico did not wish to copy Texas and Arizona by naming the group of crime fighters “rangers.” Thus did the New Mexico Mounted Police take to the field. The initial force amounted to 11 officers: a captain, paid $200 per month; a lieutenant, paid $100 per month; a sergeant, paid $60 per month; and eight privates, paid $40 per month each. Each man had to provide his own weapons, usually Colt revolvers and Winchester rifles—the territory paid for ammunition—and his own horse and pack animal. Officers paid for the care and feeding of their animals, but the territory

Sheriffs and an outstanding record of accomplishment— their deputies generated a large portion of they made 72 arrests in the first year of existence—they do not seem to have been a rootin’-tootin’ shootin’ outfit. Only a couple of gunfights are recorded and only one member of the organization died in the line of duty. Private Jerry Rusk died of pneumonia which he contracted while escorting a prisoner from Denver to New Mexico in early 1912. Enemies of the Mounted Police finally won out. First, after statehood in 1912, the legislature appropriated no funds for the operation of the agency, and on February 15, 1921 the force was completely abolished. New Mexico would not have a statewide law enforcement agency again until 1933 when the New Mexico Motor Patrol was created. The modern New Mexico State Police organization, now a part of the Department of Public Safety, was created in 1935.

NEW MEXICO LIVESTOCK BOARD by Shawn Davis Deputy Director

New From the New Mexico Livestock Board

obert Alexander resigned his post as Executive Director of the New Mexico Livestock Board as of Friday May 17. We would like to thank Mr. Alexander for his service. Secretary of Agriculture, Jeff Witte has been asked by the Governor’s office to oversee the operations of the New Mexico Livestock Board until a new Executive Director is appointed. In the interim, the folks with NMDA are beginning a review of the processes and policies of the board. This is an evaluation to improve where needed and seek opportunities to better address and serve the livestock industry.

The activities of inspectors and office staff this Spring has been varied and busy. At the request of the Texas Special Rangers, Jeffrey Burkes testified recently in a cattle theft case in Motley County, Texas. The suspect was convicted and was sentenced to five years imprisonment. Texas was very grateful for the assistance. Imports statewide are on the rise and we expect a very busy Spring and early Summer. Our entry permit line has been very active. Our office staff answers the line during normal work hours and issue the entry permit numbers. This is a vital part of keeping New Mexico livestock industry healthy, and is the first point of contact with the veterinarians from other states requesting the entry permits. A contractor handles all after hours calls. If you haven’t looked at our web-page (What’s New) or our Facebook page, please check it out. The pictures of the amazing recovery of the horse from the Las Vegas area are worth the time. Thank you Matthew and April for your compassion and hard work. Amanda McComb graduated from the Hobbs Law Enforcement Academy on May 31. Amanda is stationed in District 10, the Dona Anna County area.

In May, Byron Murphy recovered three stolen show lambs in McKinley County. Inspector Murphy’s quick response and his ability to work with the Navajo Nation Authorities attributed to the successful recovery of these 4-H project animals. Byron, with the help of Limbert Largo, also manned the NMLB booth at Indian Livestock Days in May at the Route 66 Casino. Besides selling some brand books, they represented the NMLB very well. Inspectors in District 13, Terry Roberts, Roger Sink, and Michael Ingram worked a truck rollover involving some dairy calves. Out of a 144 head, 19 calves died as a result of the accident. Inspector Bryan Waldrop investigated several dead animals in the Silver City area. The reporting party and owner suspected fowl play, but Bryan was able to flesh out the real culprit- lightening. These are just a few of the incidents dealt with recently by our inspectors. We thank the industry for their continued support and look forward to good summer.

NEWS UPDATE by Paul Bedard, Washington Examiner

‘Git-R-Done’: Trump Opens 1.4 Million Federal Acres to Hunters, Anglers

resident Trump isn’t much of an outdoorsman, aside from golf. But maybe more than any president since Teddy Roosevelt, he understands the importance of others getting outside to boat, hunt, fish, shoot, and hike and their demands for access to federal lands and waterways. “He’s basically said, ‘Git-R-Done,’” said Interior Secretary David Bernhardt, who is spearheading the opening of 1.4 million acres and elimination of 7,500 regulations limiting access. “The president fundamentally gets that hunters and anglers are the true conservationists in our society. He understands that history and that we need to act in efforts to expand hunting and fishing while at the same time being respectful of private land rights, respectful of state law,” added Bernhardt. The campaign to open access to the outdoors is a personal one for Bernhardt. In an interview, he said that living next to federal land as a kid in western Colorado helped shaped his life. “Having those opportunities to succeed and fail made me more confident and made me more willing to accept challenges,” said Bernhardt. “If I lived somewhere where my parents had to drive 300 miles for me to hunt or fish, it wouldn’t have happened at all, though that might have been a lot better for my grades.” When he had young children in his first tour at Interior under former President George W. Bush, then-Secretary Dirk Kempthorne advised him to get a boat. “He said, ‘You need to get a boat. The great thing about a boat, if you get your kids on one, even if they are with their friends, they’re stuck with you,’” Bernhardt recalled. And now, he added, his kids are hooked on the outdoors. “Exposure matters,” said the secretary, whose office sports a huge moose skull and antlers from an Alaska hunt. First under former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and now as the nation’s top outdoorsman, Bernhardt has been implementing rules to expand access at lightning speed. As part of that effort, Interior’s Fish and Wildlife Service established 10 “hunting and fishing chiefs” that have scoured every single federal property to find opportunities to expand access. This month, Bernhardt announced a proposal to open 1.4 million more acres to hunting and fishing at 74 national wildlife refuges and 15 national fish hatcheries. After a public comment period, he hopes to have the land open in time for the September dove season. “The biggest reason people don’t start or don’t stay hunting or fishing is largely the access to areas,” he said. “I think there’s a lot of opportunity to expand access.” Part of the effort also aims at harmonizing federal and state hunting and fishing regulations, commonly a complex maze. “You’ve got to be a lawyer to figure out if you can hunt or can’t hunt,” said Bernhardt, a former board member on the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. Wildlife conservation groups are buzzing about the new access. “This announcement will benefit America’s sportsmen and -women by providing access to prime hunting and fishing areas,” said Christy Plumer, chief conservation officer for the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. “We are glad to see that recreational public access was identified as a top priority,” said Howard Vincent, president and CEO of Pheas-

ants Forever and Quail Forever. In Ohio, where federal lands were opened for turkey season, one hunter offered the prized trophies of his first bird as a symbol of the expanded access. According to the secretary, the hunter said, “I’d like you to have these tail feathers and the beard just because I know how important it is to be able to access this area, and it is just amazing.”

COLLECTORS CORNER by Jim Olson

The Basics

uy what appeals to you. Buy what you like. Buy what speaks to your heart. If you are collecting with the hope that eventually it is also an investment, get educated and buy the best you can! “Collectible” means different things to different people. There are many “collectors” out there, but at the end of the day, most of their collections would not sell for much if they really needed to sell, or passed on. And that is fine—if you are collecting for the sake of collecting. It’s kind of like the guy who collected leaves, he really thought he was raking it in! They say the difference between a collector and a hoarder is discrimination. There is a lot of truth in that! An advanced collector will only buy the best they can. But we all have to start somewhere. In the early stages of building a collection, we tend to focus on volume. This is not necessarily a bad thing. It can be a good

way to get an education. Speaking of education, it is a good suggestion to learn all you can about the items you are collecting. Talk to reputable dealers, other collectors, join clubs if possible, read books. It is probably better to spend $100 on books about what you are collecting (and actually study them) than it is to go out and buy a $100 item. When you are ready to start making purchases, always buy the best you can with what ever funds you feel comfortable spending. “I believe that everyone collects. I think collecting is in our blood as humans,” –Lynda Resnick, entrepreneur. Remember, there is more to collecting than just buying items. There is the education aspect as mentioned above, the thrill of the hunt, the warm feeling of satisfaction, the camaraderie with other collectors and, if you have collected well, the monetary reward at the end of the day—if you ever need, or want to sell. A few basis things to remember when collecting: ЇЇ

Start small and collect what you like. As you progress, your tastes and knowledge will evolve and refine.

Quality is important. Things made to be collectible—rarely are. This includes pretty much all kinds of commemorative and mass produced items. ЇЇ If your “collectible” says “Made in China” or “Made in Taiwan” on it — it’s not a collectible. It is a decor item, or even a cheap knock-off. ЇЇ There is a difference between collectibles and decor. Decor is rarely collectible, but collectibles can sometimes make great decor. ЇЇ Things that have survived a long period of time and remain in good condition are generally sought after. ЇЇ Condition is usually a big factor of value. Restoration is generally not desirable in most cases. ЇЇ Rarity (or uniqueness) is also a big factor of value. Things whereby only a few have survived the test of time, or items that stand apart are generally sought after. Things do not have to be old to be ЇЇ collectible. Contemporary art by well-known artist as an example. Beware of fads however. ЇЇ Always deal with knowledgeable and reputable sellers who will stand behind what they sell. At least until you become expert enough to know more about what you are doing and are willing to take a chance if it turns out to be a bad deal. “The collector attempts always to acquire the best, and his knowledge of what is best is always widening. His is the task of judging between degrees of perfection,” –Arthur Davison Ficke (1883–1945), American poet and collector. Remember, it’s not always about the money. I recently dealt with an elderly man who had a large collection of statues he had collected over a period of many years. He was at the point where he needed to sell them, so he sent them to auction. At the end of the day, his check was for less than he had spent on them over all those years. He was down on himself for “Making a bad investment.” I asked him what he would have done with that money over the years if he had not bought all those statues. He admitted he probably would have just spent it and would not have anything to show for it now. I asked if he had enjoyed decorating his home with his collection all those years. He affirmed he had. I asked him that if he had gone down to the home decor store and bought generic decorations for ЇЇ ЇЇ

his home (likely mass produced in some foreign country), if he thought they would have had any value at auction when he got ready to downsize. He said no, they probably would have just been thrown away or sold for a few bucks at a yard sale. He then looked at it differently and felt there was definitely value in the enjoyment he had gotten from the collecting all those years. The fact that he had gotten most of his money back was an added bonus he would have not realized had he just bought home decor instead. On the other hand, there are many folks who purchased items and enjoyed them throughout the years, and now, the items have increased greatly in value. Inflation is often our friend in such cases. There are many who have enjoyed collecting over the course of a lifetime and been able to cash in nicely towards the end, when they really could use the money. To some, it is appealing that they get to stare at their “savings” right there in their home every day, rather than have it locked away in a bank somewhere. But you should always collect for the enjoyment of collecting. In the end, the best thing you get to collect is the memories, they are priceless.

Texas Tech Celebrates Funding, Legislative Approval for School of Veterinary Medicine

exas Tech University System officials recognized all who played a part in helping secure funding from the Texas Legislature that will help establish the Texas Tech University School of Veterinary Medicine, a first for the State of Texas in more than a century in mid June. On June 15, Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed into law the state budget for the next two years, which includes $17.35 million appropriated for the School of Veterinary Medicine in Amarillo that will go toward operational needs in order to get the school up and running. The appropriation included language directing Texas Tech to use funds to initiate curriculum design and development, faculty recruitment and other processes necessary to attain accreditation of the program. Donors and civic leaders already have pledged $90 million toward infrastructure and construction of the School of Veteri-

nary Medicine on the site of Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) in Amarillo. “The Texas Tech School of Veterinary Medicine represents a historic opportunity to serve the needs of our state, and reflects the efforts of many people, who recognized a significant veterinary need in Texas and supported this important initiative,” said Lawrence Schovanec, Texas Tech President. “The support for the School of Veterinary Medicine by Gov. Greg Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, Speaker Dennis Bonnen, and the Texas Legislature, will enable Texas Tech University to enhance opportunities for students in Texas seeking careers as veterinarians. We are particularly grateful for the leadership of our Lubbock delegation, including Sen. Charles Perry and Reps. Dustin Burrows and John Frullo, for their leadership and their commitment to this important cause that benefits not only West Texas, but our entire state.” The Texas Tech School of Veterinary Medicine in Amarillo will offer innovative, world-class curriculum to address the critical shortage of veterinarians, which is threatening small, regional and agricultural communities throughout Texas. It is a

cost-efficient school that will attract students with a passion for rural veterinary care and graduate career-ready veterinarians to ser ve the state and its multi-billion-dollar agriculture industry. “This was one of the most consequential legislative sessions in the history of Texas Tech and the Texas Tech University System,” said Tedd L. Mitchell, Texas Tech University System chancellor and president of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. “Securing legislative backing for the new Texas Tech veterinary school in Amarillo was made possible by countless groups and individuals who committed a tremendous amount of time, energy and passion to achieve this historic milestone. We thank Gov. Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, Speaker Dennis Bonnen and all members of the Legislature – particularly our West Texas delegation – for supporting this important priority. I also wish to thank everyone who played a part in this success.” Texas Tech’s model will recruit and select students who will most likely practice and succeed in rural communities and utilize a curriculum focused on the competencies and skills necessary to be successful in a rural practice. Also, in order to keep student debt down, the model eliminates the need for a costly teaching hospital and, instead, places veterinary students in cooperative rural practices to provide clinical learning through collaboration. “Amarillo and Texas Tech have long been partners in the mission of serving the needs of this region and providing much-needed education and care for our citizens,” said Amarillo Mayor Ginger Nelson. “Legislative approval of the Texas Tech University School of Veterinary Medicine is arguably the most impactful initiative for Amarillo in decades, and it will have ripple effects felt statewide. We look forward to all the opportunities that will come from this veterinary school and strengthened partnership.” The School of Veterinary Medicine anticipates opening in the fall of 2021 and will enroll a target class size of 60 students as well as providing opportunities for other professional students. With the crucial startup funding and legislative guidance secure, the School of Veterinary Medicine’s professional degree program must receive approval from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB). The Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree program was submitted to the THECB in February and is currently under review, with a decision anticipated within the next 6-8 months.

Climate Change Expert Sentenced to 32 Months for Fraud, Says Lying Was a ‘Rush’ by Michael Isikoff, NBC News

he EPA’s highest-paid employee and a leading expert on climate change was sentenced to 32 months in federal prison for lying to his bosses and saying he was a CIA spy working in Pakistan so he could avoid doing his real job. John C. Beale’s crimes were “inexplicable” and “unbelievably egregious,” said Judge Ellen Huvelle in imposing the sentence in a Washington, D.C. federal court. Beale has also agreed to pay $1.3 million in restitution and forfeiture to the government. Beale said he was ashamed of his lies about working for the CIA, a ruse that, according to court records, began in 2000 and continued until early this year. “Why did I do this? Greed – simple greed – and I’m ashamed of that greed,” Beale told the court. He also said it was possible that he got a “rush” and a “sense of excitement” by telling people he was worked for the CIA. “It was something like an addiction,” he said. Beale pled guilty in September to bilking the government out of nearly $1 million in salary and other benefits over a decade. He perpetrated his fraud largely by failing to show up at the EPA for months at a time, including one 18-month stretch starting in June 2011 when he did “absolutely no work,” as his lawyer acknowledged in a sentencing memo filed recently. When Huvelle asked Beale what he was doing when he claimed he was working for the CIA, he said, “I spent time exercising. I spent a lot of time working on my house.” Prosecutor Jim Smith said Beale’s crimes made him a “poster child for what is wrong with government.” The sentence drew swift reaction from Capitol Hill, including demands from a top Republican for further investigation into the EPA to determine how Beale got away with his fraud for so long. “The case this morning highlights a massive problem with the EPA,” said Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana, ranking Republican on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. He said Beale had stolen taxpayer money under the nose of EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy, who for years had been his immediate boss. EPA inspector general Arthur Elkins, whose office investigated Beale’s case, said in a statement that his office is “actively looking at the

Strap In: Environmental Pressure is Accelerating Source: The Center for Food Integrity

onversation about the environment is growing and so is the scrutiny applied to consumption of natural resources. If you think it’s intense now, hold on tight because every indication is pressure will intensify by multiples and agriculture will be pressed like never before to go farther faster in reducing its carbon footprint, according to Terri Moore with The Center for Food Integrity (CFI). “As the original stewards of the land, farmers should be smack dab in the middle of that conversation,” she said. “They have an impressive story to tell.” Moore points to the following statistics: ЇЇ Dairy farmers since the 1940s have reduced the carbon footprint of every gallon of milk by two-thirds. ЇЇ While the amount of pork produced has risen substantially over the last 50 years, producers are using 75 percent less land, 25 percent less water and seven percent less energy. ЇЇ Since 1980, U.S. wheat farmers have increased wheat yields by more than 25 percent and now produce the same amount of wheat on 28 percent less land, with 47 percent less soil erosion, using 12 percent less irrigation water. Yet, the public dialogue is happening around them, about them, but largely without them, she said. “The number of producers actively engaging, particularly online, is growing, but remains relatively small. By contrast, the price for silence has been large, as critics of agriculture have energetically engaged to raise concerns in well-connected online networks,” said Moore.

Profit over Public Interest The land and its gifts are the lifeblood of agriculture no matter the size and scale, the crop grown or the livestock raised. But many of those on the outside looking in aren’t particularly convinced. Trust research from CFI shows that only 30 percent strongly agree with the following statement: “Do U.S. farmers take good care of the environment?” More than half – 60 percent – are ambivalent.

“They’re just not sure farmers are doing enough,” said Moore. So, why are so many doubtful? First, the “big is bad” bias is likely at play. “As the size and scale of farming grow, the public doesn’t trust that large farms have the public’s best interests at heart,” she said. Only one in five respondents believe small farms will put the farm’s interests ahead of the public good, but that number doubled when we asked about large farms. There’s a perception that profit is the overriding motive on large farms and that efficiencies simply make farmers more money at the expense of people and the planet. The sentiment is heard in the CFI Street Talk series when respondents were asked: “Do farmers protect the environment?” “I think they’re hurting our environment at an alarming rate.” “Some do, some don’t. I think it’s about 50/50.” “It’s hard to protect the environment when there’s so much strain on them to produce so much food.” “Those huge commercial farms – I don’t think they’re doing anything to protect the environment.” Despite this bias, when we separate the farmer from the farm, it’s crystal clear that most Americans have a great deal of trust in farmers. In fact, the research shows that when it comes to food-related issues, farmers are trusted more than dietitians, university scientists, state and federal regulators and animal and environmental advocacy groups.

The Golden Opportunity Agriculture has a golden opportunity to move the needle with the general public and those who influence conversations that impact agriculture’s future, said Moore. In fact, a majority of respondents in our survey (65 percent) say they are hungry for infor-

mation about agriculture. So, how do farmers demonstrate that they’re continually finding ways to do things better – incorporating the latest technology to produce food in a way that sustains the environment for generations to come? By engaging, said Moore, including: ЇЇ Taking advantage of local public speaking opportunities. ЇЇ Pitching stories to the media about seasonal milestones on the farm (planting, harvest, etc.) – and incorporating messages about environmental sustainability and the benefits of biotechnology. ЇЇ Engaging on social media channels by posting pictures with great captions and short videos created on your phone. The simpler the video, the more authentic. ЇЇ Taking advantage of Facebook Live to give “on-the-spot” reports about what’s happening on your farm. Engaging in those critical day-to-day ЇЇ conversations to better understand what’s important to your neighbors and community, and having meaningful dialogue. ЇЇ Sharing and liking others’ posts that convey agriculture’s values to broaden their reach. “Farmers have a trust halo. Now is the time to leverage it to demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement, as pressure intensifies to achieve greater environmental outcomes more rapidly than ever before,” said Moore. The public is listening. Critics of agriculture are talking. Monumental environmental mandates are on the horizon. Farmers can help shape future farm stewardship practices, but not from the sidelines, she said.

Property Rights Claims Against Local Govt. Gain Clearer Path to Federal Courts by Bill Lucia, Senior Reporter, routefifty.com

awsuits alleging that local governments have unconstitutionally taken private property now have a more direct path to federal court, after a divided U.S. Supreme Court ruling in mid-June scrapped a 34-year-old legal precedent. The 5-4 ruling, with the court’s conservative bloc in the majority, comes in Knick v. Township of Scott. Rose Knick challenged a local ordinance the Pennsylvania township enacted in 2012 requiring her to grant daytime public access to a small cemetery plot on her land. The legality of the ordinance and how it was enforced was not at the center of the Supreme Court case. It instead focused on a legal precedent that the high court established in 1985 in Williamson County Regional Planning Commission v. Hamilton Bank of Johnson City. Under the “takings clause” of the Constitution’s Fifth Amendment, the government cannot take private property for public use without providing “just compensation” in return. Williamson County dictated that lawsuits over a local government taking property are not “ripe” enough to go before federal courts until the aggrieved property owner is denied just compensation in the course of state-level legal proceedings. In the majority opinion, written by Chief Justice John Roberts, strikes down the Williamson County precedent. “The state-litigation requirement imposes an unjustifiable burden on takings

Court ruling in 2005, in the case San Remo Hotel, L.P. v. City and County of San Francisco, solidified this roadblock to federal courts for the cases. Roberts suggested Williamson County and San Remo combined created a “Catch22.” A plaintiff, he said, “cannot go to federal court without going to state court first; but if he goes to state court and loses, his claim will be barred in federal court. The federal claim dies aborning.” Stewart Sterk, a professor and director of the Center for Real Estate Law and Policy at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University in New York, says that the majority’s opinion could have implications beyond those that are spelled out in it. An example is an eminent domain case where a city decides to take private land for a project and offers the landowner compensation. If the landowner decides the compensation is inadequate, there would be a state process where they could seek more money. “But if you take the majority’s opinion, I’m wondering, does the majority think that now the landowner can go to federal court on that valuation issue?” Sterk said. “The answer might be yes.” “One could read the ruling to say: ‘you get to federal court on any ordinary valuation case,” he added. “Certainly it would upend a lot of existing law, because all of the states have their own procedures for how they deal with valuation disputes.” “I’m not sure the federal courts would welcome that set of cases,” Sterk also noted. It’s hard to know, he said, how much of a shift there will be in takings claim cases filed in federal court versus state venues. But he added that “takings litigation, whether it’s in state or federal court is typically unsuccessful. A very small percentage of those claims win.” “Most of the practitioners have had the experience of going to state court and losing,” he added. “If you know you’ve been knocking your head against the wall in state court, the impetus might be: ‘might as well try federal court, can’t be worse.’”

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.

Tarentaise / Angus Composites Top Bloodlines

Ranch

Cattle of the Future will have... Moderate Size, Less Fat, Built in Tenderness, Feedlot Performance

That’s D SQUARED Cattle Today!

Tarentaise/Angus composite cattle. We brought in twenty registered Tarentaise cows in 1997 along with a good bull. They were a good bunch of cows, but a little to big for our New Mexico range. I brought in a good thick 3 frame Tarentaise bull from Kit Pharo’s program in Colorado. That bull helped bring their size down and their hardiness up. I noticed though that my cross bred calves were better than my straight bred calves. We bought several hundred good Hereford heifers from the Farr family in western New Mexico, some good Angus cattle from the university. And started putting Angus or Barangus bulls on the Hereford and Tarentaise cattle and our home raised Tarentaise bulls on the black cattle, we bought the best bulls we could afford at the New Mexico state university sale for many years, both Angus and Barangus. We bought medium framed, moderate birthweight, moderate growth bulls with good temperament. Our country will not support big cattle that produce a high volume of milk. Using the Kit Pharo Bulls and the university bulls on our best cattle we raise all of our own bulls. They are culled at branding, again at weaning and in January we test them for gain and temperament and cull again. They are wintered in a pasture and fed about eight to ten pounds of cubed alfalfa a day to keep them growing through the winter. In the spring they weigh nine hundred to one thousand pounds, and they are ready to work. These young bulls won’t fall apart when you put them out on pasture, they are wintered in a rough one section pasture. We let our cows cull themselves if they have a poor body score at weaning, they get shipped. If they cannot hold their body score through the winter without much help we separate them, feed them cake and sell them in the fall. If they don’t have a calf or calve late they get sold. It they get too high headed, it is off to town with them. After doing this for almost twenty years we do not cull as much as we used to. Our bulls and heifers are out of cows that have never been pampered and never missed a calf. The bulls should produce good thick steers and heifers that will make good cows that will work in our country. Our bulls are composites some strong on Angus with some Tarentaise, and a little Herfeord, and Barangas. The red bulls are strong on Tarentaise, with some Angus, an a little Hereford, and Barangas. They will all give you the advantage of hybrid vigor. We are going to have a few bulls and heifers for sale this year along with a couple of good ranch horses.

family moved to Dora where she met Don Hofman. Don says as far as he was concerned it was love at first sight. June 2, 1946, Don and Abby married. They went on a four-month honeymoon at Fort Campbell, Kentucky courtesy of the United States Army. When Don was dismissed from the Army they returned to West Texas/Eastern New Mexico to farm and ranch. Don and Abby lived in Morton, Texas while their children were in school. After Donna graduated, they were able to realize a dream and bought a small ranch in central New Mexico. In 1970 Don became manager of the Historic Bell Ranch north of Tucumcari. Abby was a gracious host to numerous guests, tours, artists and photographers. She was a master at cooking for her many guests, while living 50 miles from the grocery store. She also served as the Weatherman and Post Mistress at the Bell. In 1987 Don retired and they were able to realize another dream. They bought a fifth-wheel and traveled for seven months. They journeyed deep into Mexico, all the way up the west coast, into Alaska and back home to New Mexico. After returning to Tucumcari they built a home south of town and later bought a small ranch west of town. Abby was a homemaker and spent many hours volunteering at church, Cowboy Camp Meetings, Hospital Auxiliary, Boys and Girls Ranch of NM, CowBelles, Emmaus, Ministry of Hope and many other organizations. In 2016 Don and Abby sold their home and moved to Raider Ranch to be near their family. Abby will be profoundly missed by her husband of 73 years, Don, her daughter Donna (Phil) Pharies, her three grandchildren, and nine great-grandchildren all of Lubbock. Lonnie Goar quietly slipped away from this world on June 2, 2019 just two days before his 71st birthday. He was born and raised in Mountainair. At the age of 18 Lonnie joined the Air Force, a young man out to see the world. He got as far as Altus, OK where Lonnie spent four years. He returned to New Mexico after completing his service and lived in several places but continued on page 203 >>

2019 U.S. Beef Academy — A Huge Success

he United States Beef Academy (USBA) is an educational event for young men and women who are motivated to learn about the beef industry. The academy was held at NMSU Corona Range & Livestock Research Center. It is a five day, intensive educational opportunity and focuses on current methods and technology used in beef production. Each day of the academy focuses on current methods and technology used in beef production. This event is under the direction of New Mexico State University, College of Agriculture, Environmental and Consumer Sciences, Texas Agri- Life Extension, and Colorado State University. The faculty of the academy consists of Extension Specialists and Professors from the three collaborating universities. The U.S. Beef Academy was formed to provide a unique, intense educational experience for the students that attend. Day one is Beef Day, “Building Better Beef,” and sponsored by the NM Beef Council. Students focused on the consumer of beef and their desire to purchase a safe and wholesome product. Presenters will speak on food safety, proper cooking methods, how genetics and production methods can influence the quality of the product, and conduct a taste panel for the students to witness for themselves these differences can make on the final product. Day two focuses on animal health and welfare. Day three focuses on beef cattle reproduction and nutrition. Day four focuses on understanding the role of nutritional management in each segment of the beef industry as it relates to growth and development of bulls and heifers, managing the mature cowherd, and growing and finishing cattle in the feed lot. Day five focuses on marketing, systematic resource management and the global picture of US beef. Topics include marketing options, cattle futures, value added marketing programs, an overall systems approach to resource management and the role US beef plays in the global demand for beef. The USBA is truly a national and international program. In 2019, the roster included students from seven states. Graduate and undergraduate students, as well as veterinary students participated in the academy. The USBA has hosted students from fourteen states and Mexico. DVM John Wenzel, NMSU CES says, “the opportunity for students to interact with others from outside their home area greatly enhances this educational experience and provides an opportunity for students to form lasting friendships with others that have different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints of the beef production industry. The faculty of the U.S. Beef Academy are pleased that the future leaders of the beef industry will have received at least a portion of their knowledge in Corona, NM!”

Checkoff-Funded Effort is a Resource for Responsible Cattle Mgt.

n official manual for the Beef Quality Assurance program that is both detailed and extensive is now being distributed nationwide throughout the cattle industry. The manual and the BQA Program are both managed by the producer education team at the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, a contractor to the Beef Checkoff. The 124-page manual addresses topics such as food safety, animal well-being, worker safety and environmental stewardship. It provides specific information to help producers approach management decisions in a way that acknowledges a responsibility to the animals, consumers, the environment and the larger beef industry. The manual includes the most current set of key practices, guidelines and suggestions for providing thoughtful and responsible cattle management. A helpful resource for cattle producers and others in the industry, it is the foundation for training and certification programs offered nationally and by many states. The NM Beef Council is sponsoring the printing of the BQA manuals for N.M. producers. NMSU Extension Veterinarian John Wenzel, teaches the BQA program to both adult and youth producers. The manual will be available soon.
