In this episode of We Live It, Ty and Casey sit down with Beaver Yoder, a member of the Elite Livestock Marketing Group and Florida Cattlemen's leadership team, to talk about the people, places, and stories that shape Florida’s ranching community.
Beaver shares his family’s long history in the agriculture industry, what it was like growing up in Florida cow country, and how ranchers in the Southeast adapt to a landscape unlike anywhere else in the United States. From year-round management to differences in forage, Florida ranching requires grit, creativity, and a deep connection to the land.
Together, they dig into:
• Beaver’s family background and how he got his start in the cattle business
• What makes Florida ranching truly unique
• Challenges and advantages of running cattle in a subtropical climate
• The community, traditions, and people who keep the Florida cattle industry thriving
• Beaver’s work with the Elite Livestock Marketing Group and his passion for serving producers across the Southeast
They also preview two major upcoming LiveAg sales:
• The Dec. 11 Video Auction featuring more than 9,000 head
• The Stockmen at the Stadium Video Auction coming January 15 at Coors Field
Whether you run cattle in Florida, the Southeast, or anywhere across ranch country, this conversation offers a genuine look at the heart behind the industry.
