The National FFA Organization is shaping the next generation of leaders in agriculture. At Land O'Lakes, Inc. we are proud to support and invest in that same future. We’re even prouder that so many of our employees got their start in the program.   As a farmer-owned cooperative, we know that strong communities start with strong leaders. Many of our team members learned the skills they use today—from leadership to innovation—through their FFA experiences. Together, we’re growing a brighter future for agriculture! 💙💛 📸 1: Leah Koch, Laura Degoey, Lisa Fischer and Kristen Berger 📸 2: Ashley Kloth & Jeff Moeller 📸 3: Val Velde 📸 4: Kristin Waters & Jorja Ebert

Last week, Dr. Kelly Vineyard, MS, PhD had the honor to join A Home for Every Horse in presenting the 2024 Healing Hands Award to Megan Ahearne, DVM, MS. The Healing Hands Award recognizes the tireless efforts of veterinarians who provide exceptional care in rescue and rehabilitation settings, offering health, hope, and a second chance to horses in need. Ahearne has been dedicated to helping rescue horses since her student days and owns a horse, Loki, who was adopted from a local rescue.

Adding value to calves is a top priority for beef producers. For Buddy Raney at Rafter 4R Ranch, one solution was incorporating Purina® Wind and Rain® mineral to enhance his nutrition program. His results? Heavier calves, smoother weaning and selling 530-pould calves for $1,900 each.* This is proof that investing in quality nutrition can lead to serious added value in calves. #CattleNutrition #BeefCattle #PurinaFed *Individual results may vary. Profit and calf weights reflect Raney's experience this year and may not be typical for all producers.

Commercial production success hinges on a strong team of advisors. Each advisor brings a unique perspective to propel an operation forward. For instance, veterinarians ensure proper health protocols, while our Purina® nutritionists can help optimize performance through tailored nutrition. Diversifying your sources of information can optimize opportunities and help mitigate risks. Here's who we recommend recruiting: http://spr.ly/6049oMha9 #AnimalNutrition #ExpertTeam #Livestock
