Coverage of the award in​ The Fence Post.
"Since we moved calving in the late spring and early summer, we've found we have very few sick calves. At branding time, we do a vetinarian-recommended vaccination protocol."
"We see wildlife as an indicator of ecosystem health. As pastures improve, we attract more wildlife. Weeds find opportunity where pastures are in poor condition. As the pastures improve, the weeds diminish."
