Let Them Drop
Montana ranchers are relieved that we finally are getting a break in the weather. Every time a calf hits the ground $800 is added to the Montana economy. Spring and calving is a time of new hope and promise for folks in agriculture.
Things in agriculture were not good in 2016, cattle, wheat, beets, were all down. To be a farmer or rancher you have to be an eternal optimist. One thing we have going for us is Montana is the best "always next year" place in the country. Good luck........
