We're looking for people to buy cattle that will fit into our program and people to feed cattle that will fit our program.

We buy Black Baldies, Red Baldies and Herefords.

The word 'Dakota' and the words 'rural America' have a certain mystique but also a value.

We do about 500 head a week, sometimes less, sometimes more.

It's been a really good relationship that's allowed us for the first time to purchase cattle in the state.

We're not one size fits all. That's the beauty of our operation. We've got people who sell us 20 and 30 head and we've also got people who bring us 350 head.

We have such an opportunity for this state to be better than it is, and I hope to have an opportunity to make that happen.

I really think it's an opportunity not only for Democrats but also moderates to bring their issues forward and lead in a new direction.

Our long-term goal here is to build a processing facility. We don't look for that to happen anytime soon.
