The Ranch to Rail program helps ranchers determine how their cattle fit in the beef industry. Reports provided by Ranch to Rail allow producers to assess their current breeding programs and make changes if necessary to position themselves for the future.
Minimum nominations are five head per ranch.
Producers may choose to feed their cattle in South Texas or the Panhandle. Ranch to Rail-South cattle will be fed at the Hondo Creek Cattle Co. in Edroy. Delivery dates for these cattle are Oct. 3-4. Steers in the Ranch to Rail-North program will be fed at the Swisher County Cattle Co. in Tulia.
