In this episode of RUMINATE THIS, host Scott Zehr sits down with Dr. Kee Jim, founding partner, veterinarian, and manager at Feedlot Health Management Services, to explore the groundbreaking business strategy behind Blackshirt Feeders, one of North America’s largest feedlot operations with an annual capacity of up to 150,000 head of cattle. Dr. Jim shares insights into beef supply chain challenges, including national cattle herd shortages, the impact of drought-driven cattle sell-offs, and how these factors have created record-high cattle prices.

Learn how Blackshirt Feeders is setting a new standard for sustainable beef production by incorporating a methane digester fueled by manure. This innovation not only reduces the facility’s carbon footprint but also generates a new revenue stream by producing natural gas, aligning with the rising demand for eco-friendly agricultural practices.

Listen now to learn about Blackshirt Feeders’ role in shaping the future of the beef industry through sustainable practices and effective management.
