Thursday Feb 15, 2024
While we were on assignment at the National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) annual convention in Orlando we met with Janine Moore from the Iowa Beef Industry Council. Janine and her husband ranch in What Cheer, Iowa and our conversation was not only about the Iowa beef industry but the national and international impact beef has. She has spent years working on behalf of the beef industry and her knowledge is remarkable. From Ranch to Restaurant to Farm to Table it's an interesting conversation. Enjoy...we did!

Today in the Business News Headlines we've got a couple of romantic business stories for you, a look at the disaster that happened on Wall Street and a conversation with Henry Arrowood the Colorado founder of Farmshare.co. It's a company that Henry says is a "business in a box" that enables farmers and ranchers to make more from their beef while helping consumers and restaurants know exactly where their meat comes from. Yes, it's a trend. And, if you want to reach us on social media and if you're on Threads you can find us @Insight_On_Business.

For the interview the very talented Henry Arrowood the founder of Farmshare.co. Consumers want to know where their beef is coming from and restaurants also know this so Henry has created a way to track all of this plus give producers a "business in a box". And, make sure you listen to his experience working at a Montana ranch...a place where he saw first hand the hard work and low prices may producers experience.

Ranch to Resturant/Farm to Table with Henry Arrowood
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
He calls it a "Business in a Box". Henry Arrowood is talking about Farmshare a way for ranchers and farmers to take their beef directly to the consumer or restaurant. The very cool thing about this is Farmshare is nearly a "turn-key" arrangement. They will provide the packaging, labels, shipping and more. What you do is let folks know that you have the beef they want. Listen as Henry tells us what farmers/ranchers currently make per pound and what he has proven Farmshare can accomplish. The numbers are amazing. Oh...and catch what he did to experience ranch work. It's a hoot! We sure enjoyed this conversation and think you will too...producer or consumer or restaurant meet Henry!

It's the final day of Cattle Con 2024 here in Orlando. This is the annual meeting of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association and we talked to a host of producers, and those who sell products and services to the beef cattle industry. Here is a stunning fact: Only 2% of the U.S. population is involved in agriculture. One-hundred years ago 25% of the population farmed and ranched. We have become a nation mostly ignorant how food is produced...and, according to NCBA, that can be a danger. In the weeks ahead we'll share some of what we heard. I promise it it will be interesting. Meanwhile, if you want to reach us on social media and if you're on Threads you can find us @Insight_On_Business. And you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too. Here's what we've got for you today:

The number of news/journalist jobs cut is stunning;
And what that means to you for local news;
A new student loan forgiveness program rolls out;
Big news from the USDA for small cattle producers;
The Fall of 23 and Me;
Seven ways for you to save money in 2024.
