Ground beef demand remains strong as cattle producers push back on Trump’s latest beef import plan that sent cattle prices sinking. Ranchers say consumers don’t have a beef price problem — they have a fuel price problem.

Rainfall recorded across Wheatland County from April through August was only 48% to 63% of the Harlowton historical average shown here. While isolated storms brought relief to certain areas, that rainfall was not evenly distributed and did not erase the broader seasonal moisture deficit affecting our producers.

Wheatland County Emergency Management is working hard to ensure accurate local conditions and impacts are documented and reported to state and federal decision-makers. We need help from our ranchers, farmers, and residents: if you are experiencing forage loss, reduced hay production, crop damage, livestock-water shortages, increased feed or water costs, or other drought-related impacts, please complete the County’s drought-reporting form.

Your reports provide the local evidence needed to show what conditions are actually like across Wheatland County.

THE CATTLE ON A THOUSAND HILLS STILL BELONG TO HIM.

There have been plenty of comments lately saying:

“You got what you voted for.”
“Hope you enjoy going broke.”
“Maybe you should've voted differently.”

Here's something worth remembering.

Farmers and ranchers have worked through Republican administrations and Democrat administrations. We've seen good policies, bad policies, droughts, floods, high cattle markets, low cattle markets, high interest rates and rising input costs.

Leaders matter. Elections matter. Policy matters. And when a policy hurts American agriculture, producers should absolutely speak up about it.

But no President has ever owned the cattle on a thousand hills.

“For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.”
— Psalm 50:10 KJV

That's where the foundation is.

Supporting a leader doesn't require pretending every decision is right. Opposing a leader shouldn't require hoping his decisions hurt your neighbors just so you can say “I told you so.”

When leadership changes, the prayer shouldn't be for the next administration to fail so the other side can win an argument.

Pray they succeed in doing what's right for this country. Pray they have wisdom. Hold them accountable when they're wrong. And remember that ultimately our faith was never supposed to rest in Washington.

Presidents come and go.

Markets rise and fall.

Policies change.

Droughts come.

Storms come.

And the cattle on a thousand hills still belong to Him.

Agriculture will do what agriculture has always done:

Work. Adapt. Endure. Pray.

Because the future of American agriculture is bigger than red versus blue—and faith is bigger than an election.
