I really liked how Jeremia has matched his enterprise mix to his unique ranch context. Custom cow/calf that allows him to vary his stocking rate to take advantage of spring flush, sheep to utilize grass and graze cover crops on neighbor cropland without damaging the fields and an owned low input cow herd to utilize stockpiled forage. Listen in to see why he decided to get into each enterprise and how they work so well in his operation!
