Over 6 million head, that’s the size of the cattle herd in the state of Kansas and today Matt Perrier (Dalebanks Angus & host of Practically Ranching), 5th generation rancher from Eureka, KS, walks us through the history of the Kansas Cattle Industry. From those iconic Kansas cow towns to the expansion of the railroad, the arrival of the Black Angus in the US, and the Kansas City Stockyards and Packing houses. We'll also talk about the evolution of the Kansas Cattle Industry since the early 1900’s and how Kansas is a state that literally has every facet of the beef industry inside its boarders... from the rancher or the farmers to the feeder and the packer. Doesn't matter what part of the country you're from, you might be surprised in what you learn about what Kansas has to do with your ranching operation.
