The Adams Ranch was the first to develop a breed of cattle in Florida for Florida, the Braford breed. This Brahman - Hereford cross could handle heat and insects and still produce desirable meat. In this interview, Mike Adams describes agricultural history in this subtropical wilderness of grass and how his family has shaped and continues to shape the beef industry in the Deep South, including innovative meat marketing and continued cattle genetics refinement.

AoR 164: The King Ranch Institute for Ranch Management, with Rick Machen
The King Ranch is considered "The Birthplace of American Ranching". On its 150th birthday, King Ranch partnered with Texas A&M Kingsville to establish a masters program in ranch management, the only one of its kind. Rick Machen is the executive director of this program and speaks to the efficacy and reach of the Institute, still in its first quarter-century. Rick and Tip discuss why ranching well matters more than ever, why training future ranchers is critical, and how the King Ranch Institute for Ranch Management functions to serve these Texas-sized goals.
