The day-to-day on a family ranch often means juggling many pieces in order to get the job done and raise the chances of making a profit. The Luthi Ranch, a 6th-generation family enterprise in western Wyoming, is no exception.
On this episode of Ruminating with RealAg, Bryan Luthi joins host Amber Bell to discuss the day to day operation of the ranch, and how that day-to-day has garnered the attention of thousands of people on YouTube. On his channel, Luthi Ranch, videos covering production practices—such as mothering up a cow, ranching in extreme cold, and welding how-tos—have drawn a wide audience.
“The way I look at it now too is it’s almost like I’m keeping a family journal… because now that my kids are getting involved and my wife’s involved, it’ll be fun to look back in 20 years and then remember how small Ellis was, or how young we were,” says Luthi.
Bell and Luthi also dive into key aspects of ranch life, including why the family calves earlier in the season, working alongside parents, managing winter feeding, balancing off-farm work with ranch and family duties, and experimenting with new ideas.
