He didn't grow up on a ranch. He didn't inherit a herd. What Buck Rich did have was a willingness to learn and the work ethic to back it up.

Starting with 10 cows outside Okemah, Oklahoma, he and his family have built a nearly 2,000-head Angus-cross operation anchored in one principle: efficiency over size. Smaller-framed cows, tighter genetics, and a disciplined AI program have translated into cattle that eat less, breed back at 97%, and perform on the rail.

"One of the most important things we have to have here for our bottom line is an efficient cow." - Buck Rich

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is reshaping global energy markets, with impacts extending far beyond oil.

Energy experts warn that tighter fuel supplies, rising fertilizer costs, and higher transportation expenses could place additional pressure on farmers, consumers, and supply chains worldwide. While the full effects may take time to unfold, the disruption is already influencing prices and forcing governments and industries to prepare for a prolonged period of uncertainty.

Texas Land Price Up 6.5% in 2025. Statewide median reaches $5,214 per acre as market momentum accelerates. Even as sales volume softens, prices hold strong across most regions. What's driving the surge? Affordability in West Texas, AI data center development, and strong activity in smaller acreage sales-now 60% of market volume compared to the usual 20%. 2026 forecast: continued price growth but declining sales volumes as interest rates and economic uncertainty take hold.

At just 29, Catherine manages a 65,000-head capacity operation, the same feedyard her grandfather founded. What started as “grounding” that meant going to work at the feedyard became her passion.

From kick-feeding as a kid to running daily operations today, Catherine embodies the family legacy while innovating for the future. She loves the puzzle of it all: how to keep the operation thriving, how to work alongside family, and how to uphold a big legacy even as the industry shrinks.

“I like the puzzle and trying to figure out how to make it all work.”

April 25, 1957
Spofford, Texas

SPRING SHIPPING IN SOUTH TEXAS is in full swing, though the movement hardly compares volume to peak years of the past. These are about 500 head owned by Traylor & Co., San Antonio, being turned into a trap near Spofford a few days ago preparatory to being loaded on railroad cars. The cattle were contracted earlier to northern buyers. At right are George Driskill (right), Sabinal, foreman for the company, and Leonard Traylor, head of the firm.

Regenerative grazing has gone by many names, cell grazing, mob grazing, holistic planned grazing, but the promise has always been the same: restore the land and increase stocking rates at the same time.

The reality? It’s complicated. Range conservationist Steve Nelle writes from hard-won experience about what went right, what went wrong, and the one lesson every rancher should take away before adopting a new grazing system.

“Test small first.”
