2023 Policy Conference concludes for cattle raisers

The Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association has just finished its 2023 Policy Conference. It was a hub of discussions and decisions to navigate the future of the cattle industry. 

Arthur Uhl, the president of the association, was thrilled about the event, calling it a “tremendous success.” Bring together cattle raisers to discuss and decide on matters that mean a lot to them. 

At the meeting, the members got to vote on various policies and even approved a strategic plan. This plan is set to steer the association’s direction all the way until 2029. 

They revisited the happenings of the 88th Texas Legislature Regular Session. The focus was on promoting several important policies and discussing upcoming agriculture-related propositions on the November ballot. 

One such important proposition is Proposition 1, aiming to anchor the Right to Farm statute in the Texas Constitution. The members acknowledged the journey ahead and the importance of voting in the upcoming weeks. 

Representing an impressive 26,000 cattle raisers in the Southwest, the association is a significant voice in the industry.

What happens when a farm buys its first Fendt? For Peter Watson Jones Ltd, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 has exceeded expectations from day one. For Jack, Farm Manager at Peter Watson Jones Ltd in North Shropshire, UK, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 wasn't just another tractor purchase. It was the farm's first experience with the Fendt brand.

Operating across a 1,200-acre arable farm alongside a 250,000-head broiler enterprise, the business has evolved significantly over the last decade, moving to a straight arable system with fewer staff and machines. Since arriving on the farm, the Fendt 726 Vario has established itself as the main drilling and cultivations tractor, earning its place through performance, versatility and efficiency. Whether it's handling large-scale cultivations or working with a new 4.5m strip-till drill, the tractor continues to impress.

Jack highlights its excellent manoeuvrability, operator comfort and ability to deliver strong pulling power at low engine speeds. The result? Outstanding fuel efficiency without compromising performance. Reliability has also been a key factor, with dependable backup from the team at TR Machinery helping to keep the tractor working when it matters most.

?? Watch as Jack shares why the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7, the farm's first Fendt, has made such a strong impression and become an integral part of their operation.
