Working Cattle is a One-Woman Job

Watching Melissa Arhart work cattle is like watching a band director during a concert.

Today Arhart is busy weaning calves. As she walks into the pen of calves recently separated from their mothers, she begins to take several steps back. It doesn’t take long before the calves seem interested and begin to move toward her. She focuses on their reaction. Their response dictates her movements. She begins to walk in

a zig-zag, straight-line pattern, approaching the calves at a diagonal, working them for the first time without their mothers.

“By my actions and body language, I get the cattle to move the way I want them to - because they want to,” says Ar-hart, 29, of the stockmanship skills she’s been honing and implementing on her family’s Alpena, S.D., ranch/feedlot operation over the last five years.

Story & photos by Lura Roti, for Land & Livestock

Rancher, Melissa Arhart works pairs on her family’s ranch near Alpena, S.D., using the stockmanship, cattle handling technique. Arhart, and her family were attracted to the method because it allows one person to work large groups of cattle safely, quickly, with little to no stress inflicted on the animals.

Growing up on a sheep farm near Viborg, S.D., Jamie Flint says she didn’t understand the broad scope of career opportunities found in South

Dakota’s agriculture industry until her first agriculture education class in high school.

“The farm I grew up on was all I knew about agriculture. When I took the animal science class my freshman year, it opened up my eyes to all the possibilities of what I could do in agriculture,” says Flint, who is pursuing a degree in animal science at South Dakota State University.

Sunflowers: A Minor Crop with

With only a few weeks left before sunflower harvest, Brad Bonhorst says that by the looks of his fields he anticipates yields of about 2,000 pounds an acre this year.

The Hughes County farmer is among a shrinking number of South Da-kota sunflower producers doing their part to meet the growing demand for this oilseed crop.

“Planted acres is the major issue in the sunflowers industry,” says Bon-horst, of the crop of which South Dakota is the second largest producer in the nation.

S.D. The 2011 Eminent Homemakers honored are Rebecca “Becky” Converse, Arlington, S.D. and Donna Robbennolt, Gettysburg, S.D.

Established in 1927, the awards recog-nize individuals for their contributions of leadership and service to the community on the local, state and national level. Each year SDSU selects four individuals to honor based on confidential nomina-tions from across the state. The nomina-tions are reviewed by a committee of SDSU faculty members, administrators, Extension personnel and upon approval of the dean of the College of Agriculture and Biological Sciences and the dean of the College of Family and Consumer

Sciences the recommendations go to the President of SDSU.

The honorees photos join the more than 300 portraits of Eminent Farmers/Ranchers and Homemakers which are displayed in the “Hall of Fame” portrait gallery located in Agriculture Hall at South Dakota State University.

Rebecca “Becky” Converse 2011 Eminent Homemaker, Arlington, S.D.

If there’s something that can be done to beautify the City of Arlington or preserve its history, Rebecca “Becky” Converse gets involved.

“I grew up here. My children went to school here. I just think Arlington is a great little town, and I want it to look the best it can,” said Converse, who

willingly shares her talents for flower gardening, interior design and organizing volunteers with her community.

Nordland Isle is perhaps one of the more visible projects Converse has been in-volved in. For years, anyone who entered the city of Arlington, S.D., was greeted by a rock pile full of weeds surrounded by a small lake.

When a councilman decided it was time to fix the eyesore, he asked Converse for her help. A proficient gardener, Converse designed the garden, and enlisted the help of other community flower garden-

ers. The volunteer group set to work con-verting the pile of rubble into a garden the entire community can enjoy.

Today, all who enter Arlington are welcomed by the beautifully landscaped Nordland Isle. With its bountiful peren-nial flower gardens, surrounded by a healthy lake inhabited by geese; visitors can enjoy the colorful island from afar or visit via a walking bridge.

Born and raised in the Arlington com-munity, Converse has been an active member of the community since child-hood when she actively participated

She is a founding member of the Arlington Com-munity Foundation, a member of the Winsor Wives Extension Club which be-came the Share n’ Learn Club, was a Sun-day School Teacher at Arlington United Methodist Church and, in 2009, was honored as the Arlington Area Chamber of Commerce “Person of the Year.”

Converse and her husband, Loren, raised four children; Ken, Kamilla Converse, Kristen Dirks, and Karyn Weber, on a farm. While their children were grow-ing up, Converse stayed at home and was actively involved with the farm. In 1980 she returned to South Dakota State University to complete a fine arts de-gree. She worked part time as a florist in Brookings.

When serving her community, Converse

is not one to work alone. She has a knack for uniting groups of volunteers to get things done.

As a museum volunteer she and other volunteers had been collecting and preserving community artifacts for years. They were instrumental in preserving and restoring the Country School Museum, a one-room schoolhouse moved to Lake Arlington.

For many years the group was instrumen-tal in displaying Arlington’s artifacts in various locations around the city. Re-cently, the group decided it was time to secure a permanent location to showcase the community’s heritage. The Arlington Community Museum committee was formed. Working with the local Masons, and enlisting the aid of high school athletes, the group restored the historic

Donna Robbennolt, 2011 Eminent Homemaker, Gettysburg, S.D.

When Donna Robbennolt is passionate about something, she works hard to share her passion with others in her commu-nity.

At a young age Robbennolt developed a strong interest in art when her school teacher introduced her to drawing and painting as a seventh grader in a one-room school house. Only a few years later, when she became a country school teacher at the young age of 17, she worked to introduce her students to art as well. As a young mother, she provided her three children with opportunities to share her passion. Throughout her life, she has shared this passion for art and art education with the community of Gettys-burg by dedicating many volunteer hours to fundraising and organizing events and activities which bring culture, arts and art education to the rural community.

“The arts are important. We need to fund them so our young people are exposed to the arts and have them to fall back on,” said Robbennolt, who has actively

participated in several organizations and events including; serving as chairperson of the High Plains Arts Council, sup-porting the South Dakota Arts Council, and has been instrumental in bringing Dinner Theatre, as well as the Missoula Children’s Theatre to Gettysburg.

Serving many leadership roles through-out her community; Robbennolt has also been in the American Legion Auxiliary, she served as District 10 President, led the brick fund raiser for the Legion An-nex, served as head of Education Com-mittee and was named Legionnette of the year twice.

An active member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, she has served on the St. Mary’s Hospital Foundation. While on the foundation board, she worked to meet the health needs of people in Central South Dakota working with the Regional Coordinated Care Network to help identify serious health issues and de-velop collaborative approaches to meet-ing these needs. She was named Queen at the Hospital Auxiliary Spring Fling in 1992.

In 1988 she was recognized as the Get-tysburg Citizen of the Year.

Serving on the board of directors of the Dakota Sunset Museum, Robbennolt was instrumental in helping secure a new building for the museum and played a key role in obtaining a traveling exhibit from the Smithsonian Institute, “Produce for Victory,” for the museum.

Along with securing the exhibit for a year, Robbennolt worked with com-munity groups to establish a Victory Garden and organized a group of high

school students to put together a 1940s style show and helped line up talent for a USO show. Impressed by these creative activities, the Smithsonian used Gettys-burg as an example for other communi-ties to follow.

“When you live in a community with so few people - this is what you do- you step up and do things that need to be done,” she said.

Robbennolt and her late-husband, Gene, raised three children; Mark, Michelle Izzillo, and Steve, on a farm near Gettys-burg. Like her children, Robbennolt also grew up on a farm. 4-H and Extension became another life-long passion hers.

She served as a 4-H leader and as an active member and past president of the Oahe M&Ms Extension Club, County & Family Extension Leaders of Potter

County and an Area Director of County & Family Extension Leaders. She served as chairman of the Board of Directors and on the Steering Committee for SDSU University Week for Women.

In 1988 she was named Potter County Outstanding Homemaker of the Year.

“I’ve always felt that as women we need to help each other out,” Robbennolt said.

- if there’s a challenge in need of a new solution, Rausch is up for the task.

“I enjoy pioneering and starting new organizations. When I see a need, I’ll jump in and try to help. It’s exciting and challenging,” said Rausch, who is quick to add that he is able to be involved in activities off his large purebred Hereford operation he runs with his brother, Jerry, and their sons because of his family’s support. “I’ve been blessed with partners who cover for me when I’m not home. This has allowed me to become involved in other things.”

Rausch and his wife, Sharon, raised their four sons and one daughter; Shannon, Trudy Morgan, Dana, Joel and Nick; on the family’s Hoven farm. He and his brothers, Jerry and Harlan, his sons, Joel and Shannon, and his nephews, Rick and

Gary, and several grandchildren operate the largest purebred Hereford operation in the United States - Rausch Hereford Farms. A third-generation Potter County farmer, Rausch’s family got into raising registered Herefords when he was only 4-years-old and his older brothers and sisters purchased Herefords as their 4-H project. The family recently hosted their 52nd annual bull and female sale.

For several decades, Rausch has unself-ishly volunteered his time advocating for South Dakota agriculture and the Hereford industry. As a member of the Hoven FFA Alumni he facilitated the North Central Livestock judging schools for 4-H and FFA members for more than 25 years; for more than 45 years his family has donated a heifer to a fresh-man FFA student, as part of the Hereford Heifer Grant. Recognized for his service

to youth in agriculture, Rausch received the Honorary State and Chapter FFA Degrees and South Dakota FFA Distin-guished Service Award. He was a Potter County 4-H Leader, served on the Potter County Fair Board and Potter County Planning Commission. As a member of the Potter County Steering Committee, Rausch helped fund a study that inves-tigated irrigation potential from Blue Blanket Aquifer; and currently serves as the co-chairman of the Hoven Service Club.

In 1977 he was recognized as the Hoven Service Club Man of the Year.

Understanding the value of detailed performance and purebred registration records provide to cattle breeders and the commercial cattleman, Rausch worked tirelessly with the American Hereford Association to help develop user friendly technology that helped breeders maintain complex records that were easier to use and read.

When the cattle industry faced desperate times in the late 1970s, Rausch helped organized Concerned Cattlemen, a group which organized more than 300 cow-boys from the Dakotas and Montana to testify in Washington D.C., lobbying Congress, the group shared the plight of the American cattlemen and suggested changes to meat import laws and testified before the International Trade Commis-sion. Rausch and the group were invited into the White House to confer with the economic advisors about the challenges facing the cattle industry.

Throughout the years, Rausch has served in leadership positions and on the board

of the South Dakota Hereford Associa-tion, the American Hereford Association and Certified Hereford Beef. He was a founding member of the South Dakota Beef Breeds Council, where he worked to improve the genetics of, and increase the markets for South Dakota breed-ing stock; and traveled with the South Dakota Department of Agriculture on agricultural trade missions to five differ-ent countries.

“When the demand for beef leveled off, we knew we needed to increase demand with branded beef programs. This has helped demand for beef increase signifi-cantly,” Rausch says of helping establish the Certified Hereford Beef program in 1995.

He and his operation have been recog-nized by several industry organizations; in 1999 Rausch Hereford Farms was se-lected as the American Hereford Associa-tion nominee for the Steedstock Producer of the Year and in 2004, the farm was nominated to the Seedstock Producer Roll of Excellence by the Beef Improve-ment Federation; in 2007, the South Dakota Hereford Association named Rausch Herefords as Seedstock Producer of the Year.

Along with advocating for his industry, Rausch has been actively involved in his rural community, serving as a member of the Catholic Order of Foresters, as a founding member of the St. Anthony’s School Foundation, and a founding member of the St. Anthony’s Parish Council, and as a member of the Hoven Area & S.D. Right to Life. He was a Religious Education Instructor for high school students, supports the annual

Arnold Wienk, 2011 Eminent Farmer/Rancher, Lake Preston, S.D.

Doing what he can to benefit the people and product of the beef industry has been Arnold Wienk’s mantra throughout his 53-year-career as a registered Charolais

seedstock producer.

“We do what we can to promote the industry and the product,” said Wienk, a third generation Kingsbury County farmer.

A commercial cattleman when he pur-chased his first Charolais bull, Wienk was looking to improve his herd’s genetics. After seeing the benefits crossbreeding yielded in his herd, the Lake Preston cattleman knew he couldn’t keep the breed a secret.

“We converted our herd from com-mercial to purebred because we saw the benefits of the Charolais breed and thought they could really help the future of the beef industry,” Wienk said. “Our focus has always been to produce breed-ing stock that the commercial man wants

and an end product that the public wants to buy.”

Looking out for the commercial cattle-man hasn’t always been easy in an industry where the show ring doesn’t always reward the same way the market does, however that didn’t faze Wienk. In fact, he says, maintaining customer service and breeding stock that improved the commercial cattleman’s bottom line has kept Wienk Charolais in business for three generations.

“The average purebred operation only lasts seven years. There were many times when we were pretty close to the bottom of the class in the show ring, but would end up selling a truck load of cattle to a cattle producer who saw us at the fair and liked what they saw,” said Wienk, who operates Wienk Charolais with his wife,

Carol, daughter and son-in-law, Jody and Jeff Eschenbaum, and now his oldest grandson, Sterling Eschenbaum and his wife, Courtney.

While he and his family were busy growing their seedstock business, Wienk also invested his time in promoting the Charolais breed. In the early days, he had to petition the State Fair Board for three years before they would allow the breed to exhibit. He is a founding member of the Upper Midwest Charolais Associa-tion, the South Dakota Charolais As-sociation and Kingsbury County Cattle-men’s Association. He served as president of the American International Charolais Association and was on the National Cattlemen’s Beef Board. In 1985, Wienk Charolais was named Seedstock Producer

Arhart was introduced to the stockmanship method of cattle handling by veterinarian Tom Noffsinger during a Grassland’s Coalition workshop a few months before she married Andrew Ar-hart, and joined the family’s cattle operation.

Arhart, and the family were at-tracted to the method because it allowed one person to work large groups of cattle safely, quickly, with little to no stress inflicted on the animals.

“Before we did what most cattle producers do. When it was time to move or work cattle we all went out to help. We used extra labor, heavy duty facilities, horses or 4-wheelers. When we saw that the stockmanship method worked and reduced the need for extra labor and equipment we wanted to learn more,” said Arhart, who became an eager student of the technique.

Today she’s an advocate, recently developing a training DVD to help other cattlemen learn how to implement stockmanship in their own operations.

A little background

Learning how to implement stockmanship skills has been an exciting journey for Arhart and her family. Passionate about work-ing with livestock, Arhart has had

to learn most of what she knows about handling large animals as an adult.

Arhart grew up on a small, hobby farm in Pennsylvania where she raised show horses and a few steers. Her involvement in 4-H led her to pursue a degree in Ani-mal Science from Ohio State Uni-versity. While she was a student,

she got involved in reproductive physiology research.

While looking for an internship she discovered South Dakota State University was looking for a re-search assistant. During her sum-mer internship in South Dakota Arhart fell in love with the state.

“I was amazed by the wide open spaces and how rich this state’s ag-ricultural industry is,” says Arhart, who upon graduation accepted a livestock extension educator posi-tion in Miller, S.D.

In 2006, she married Andrew and became actively involved in the farming operation. She began

managing the farm’s ultrasounding and marketing consulting service which helps feedlot owners deter-mine when to sell, and helps them sell on a grid to receive premiums.

Stockmanship isn’t about facilities

Arhart Farms is a diverse family farming operation. Arhart and her husband, Andrew, farm with Andrew’s parents, LaVerne and

Judy, and brother, Jonathan, and his wife, Joy. The family farms 1,100-acres of wheat, corn and soybeans; manages 1,900-acres of pastureland; operates a 250-head cow/calf herd and an 800-head feedlot; runs stockers; and finishes 11,000 hogs each year.

Because the family doesn’t hire outside help to manage their large, multi-faceted operation the stockmanship method was appeal-ing. Since they’ve implemented the technique, it has reduced their need for labor and increased the speed at which they are able to work cattle.

Different from other low-stress cattle handling practices which focus on facility design; stockman-ship focuses on the cattle producer and his body language as it relates to his cows.

“With stockmanship, you don’t have to change facilities, you have to change yourself. This is a totally different way of thinking,” Arhart says. “We used to always think of facilities when we would talk about cattle handling before. Now we think about ourselves and focus on our actions and our body language – that’s how we control the cattle. We get the cattle to move because they want to.”

She explains that when using stockmanship practices, cattle move because of basic pressure and release concepts.

Based on the basic knowledge that cattle want to see what is pressur-ing them, the Arharts always move at an angle to the cattle so the cows can see them as they pres-sure them to move. This applies to every method they use to move cattle - on foot, with a horse or with a four wheeler. Arhart says it builds trust, rewards the cattle for moving and allows them to move away from them in a controlled manner. They use this method whether they are working one calf or 100- head of yearlings.

“Cattle want to be together so badly that once you get the leaders and movement started, the others want to join them and not run

away or turn back. If something wants out of the herd, or out of the corral, I realize I did some-thing wrong as a handler and I am over-pressuring them,” Arhart says. “This instinct of wanting to be together can do a lot of work for us. Before, we would get in the way of it.”

Arhart emphasizes the fact that stockmanship works everywhere – in an open pasture, in a corral, or in an alleyway.

“I make sure that I am able to control the cattle in the pasture or feedlot pen first before we work them in the facilities,” she says. “If we have the skills to control them in the open, it’s a breeze to work them in facilities.”

To perfect her skills, Arhart spent time out in the pasture with the cows – letting them teach her. If she applied too much pressure or moved in a way that made the cattle nervous they reacted.

“The cattle will tell you where you need to be. They will tell you when you do something wrong. I watch them for cues,” Arhart says.

She says the technique even works on new cattle.

“The technique works on all cattle – ours and recently purchased – I’ve even use it on some of my ultrasound customer’s cattle,” she says. “Using this technique has encouraged us to utilize our grass more and to not require we buy

“quiet” cattle.

“We each can go out by ourselves and bring them in and even sort alone. It frees up the two other people who, in the past, were needed to bring them in,” she says.

Since they’ve been using the technique, they discovered that it even works when tagging calves.

“Dr. Tom taught us that if we focus on the calf and make sure the calf is calm, the cow will remain calm. We approach the calf us-

ing pressure and release and sometimes even draw the calf to us,” says Arhart, pointing to a clip on the DVD where she captured Andrew approaching a calf using the stockmanship technique. “I get the shivers watching it. When he finished tagging the calf and walking away, the mom bellered at the calf, but the calf kept walking toward Andrew – it trusted him that much.”

The 18-year-old looks forward to a career in animal ge-netics after college.

“Agriculture is so much more than farming. I hope to help develop animal products that will help farmers feed the growing population,” Flint says.

Flint shares her story, and encourages other high school students to consider career opportunities in agriculture as one of six South Dakota State FFA Officers.

State FFA Officers are college students who serve as role models and are the student leaders of the state FFA organization. Each year six college students are selected to serve as state officers based on an intensive interview pro-cess. Previously known as the Future Farmers of America,

the FFA is an intracurricular organization which pro-vides leadership and career development to high school students who are enrolled in agriculture education classes. In South Dakota, more than 3,300 high school students are members of the FFA. They are enrolled in agriculture, food and natural resources classes in 77 high schools across the state.

The role the FFA organization and agriculture education plays in preparing the next generation of agriculture lead-ers and professionals is significant, says Nathan Sander-son, policy advisor to Governor Daugaard.

“Agriculture has been, is, and will continue to be South Dakota’s number one industry,” says Sanderson, who was actively involved in FFA as a high school student and served as a State FFA Officer in 1998. “With agriculture being the largest employer in South Dakota, having young professionals to fill jobs is very important to the future success of our state.”

Sanderson points to his involvement in FFA as key to developing his communication skills, as well as mo-tivating his decision to pursue a degree in agriculture education.

“FFA allowed me to meet a variety of people with differing backgrounds and interests. It also helped me develop the confidence to interact with people without reservation,” says Sanderson, of the many experiences he had as a State FFA Officer visiting with high school students from across the state, hosting workshops and in-teracting with educators and agribusiness professionals. “Those experiences prepared me well for what I do today. I work with South Dakotans every single day. Many are individuals I’ve never met before. I’m comfortable doing this, in part, because of the experiences I had in FFA.”

Jason Frerichs echoes Sanderson’s experi-ence. At 26, Frerichs serves as the South

Dakota Senate minority leader and farms with his family near Wilmot. In high school he was an active member of the Wilmot FFA Chapter and in 2004, he served as a state FFA officer.

“FFA provided a training ground for me to develop confidence in speaking with a pur-pose,” Frerichs says. “As a state we depend on student development programs like the

FFA to give our young people an edge.”

Involvement in the FFA helps develop student’s leadership and professional de-velopment skills through many hands-on learning opportunities says Jim Chilson, an agriculture education instructor and FFA advisor at Florence High School.

“Agriculture education classes provide a great deal of hands-on learning in a lab-type environment. Classes cover a diversity of topics,” says Chilson, of classes which focus on everything from animal sci-ence and biotechnology, to ag metals and fabrication.

In addition to agriculture education classes, all FFA members participate in

a supervised agriculture experience. This ag-related project can be anything from raising livestock and crops to working for an ag business. Chilson says that some of his students work in the meat department of a grocery store for their supervised agri-culture experience.

“This gives them the opportunity to ex-plore what careers are available in agricul-

Tyler Swan is a senior at Newell High School. Swan says his FFA supervised agriculture experience project, along with competing on FFA range judging teams encouraged him to consider a degree in Range Science after graduation.

FFA is preparing the agriculture professionals of tomorrow. Agriculture is an industry that is always changing. There is always something new, a bigger and better technology emerging. We need to keep reinvesting in our youth so we continue to have a strong future in agriculture. FFA does just that.

ture and meet agri-business professionals,” says Chilson, who has taught agriculture education for 37 years.

Outside the classroom, FFA members are able to take what they learn in the classroom and compete with their peers from across the state in career development events.

Growing up on a ranch near Newell, S.D., Tyler Swan says his supervised agriculture experience involves helping out on his family’s ranching operation. This experience, coupled with competing on 4-H and FFA state and na-tional winning range judging teams has this high school senior considering a degree in Range Science at South Dakota State University.

“FFA has been good preparation for college. It’s gotten me out into the world to see different aspects of life and job opportunities,” says Swan, who currently serves as his chapter’s president.

Across the state, another high school senior, Matt Hum-mel says that while working on his Agri-Science project – a robot that uses GPS navigation and oil absorbing

technology to clean up oil spills – the 18-year-old Flor-ence High School student began to explore more science-based career opportunities.

“Before this project, I was planning to go into a music career. I may still pursue that, but now I’m looking at the sciences. Something like wildlife studies or ecology,” says Hummel, whose project placed second at the National FFA Convention, and recently received two certificates of excellence at the International Science Fair in Los Angeles.

In 2012, Hummel plans to redesign his robot to clean up algae resulting from agriculture runoff in lakes.

Working with high school students like Swan and Hum-mel is what Paul Dybedahl enjoys most about serving as a State FFA Officer.

“As a State Officer I get to meet FFA members all the time. They are ambitious, and have lots of energy. Getting to know them throughout the year creates a synergy as we travel across the state,” says Dybedahl, who is currently serving as president of the State FFA Association and is a

freshman at SDSU.

Dybedahl’s grandparents still live on the farmstead his great-great grandfather homesteaded. Although his fam-ily rents the ground to another farmer, his dad, Craig is involved in South Dakota’s agriculture industry, working as an animal health salesman for Pfizer Animal Health. His dad, and older brother, Matt, also served as State FFA Officers. Dybedahl says growing up in a family with close connections to agriculture and the FFA influenced his decision to join the FFA.

As he travels across the state meeting with FFA members, Dybedahl says the state’s No. 1 industry has a bright future.

“FFA is preparing the agriculture professionals of tomor-row,” Dybedahl says. “Agriculture is an industry that is always changing. There is always something new, a bigger and better technology emerging. We need to keep reinvesting in our youth so we continue to have a strong future in agriculture. FFA does just that.”

Bonhorst says sunflowers are in competi-tion for corn and soybean acres. When he planted his first sunflowers in the mid-80s South Dakota farmers grew more than 1 million acres of sunflowers. Today, less than 400,000 acres in the state are dedi-cated to the crop – even though this year 8 percent more acres were planted to sun-flowers in South Dakota than in 2010.

“This is a nationwide trend. Just over a million acres are planted nationally,” Bon-horst says.

As planted acres continue to decline, Bonhorst says the large crushers threaten to convert their plants to canola plants unless they see a reversal of the trend.

“Basically they are saying we’re not a

reliable supplier,” he says. “To keep this in-dustry going at full strength, it’s important that we build up acres to the point that we prove we are reliable supplier.”

Doing his part to promote the benefits of planting sunflowers to his peers, Bonhorst serves as president of the South Dakota Oilseed Council.

Having raised the crop for more than 25 years, he says promoting the benefits of growing sunflowers is easy. His long list of praise for the oilseed begins with the fact that they are a good cash crop, currently holding its own with the corn markets.

A low-residue crop, Bonhorst says it works well to add sunflowers into his rotation of corn, soybeans and wheat - each year Bonhorst plants 500 acres of his 2,000 cropland acres to sunflowers.

“Year-in and year-out, they are in the rotation. They work well to break up the disease cycle and in this part of the coun-try, sunflowers will yield a crop when corn and soybeans won’t,” says Bonhorst, of the plant’s 3-foot tap root which efficiently mines moisture and nutrients corn and soybeans can’t access.

He adds that by reviving the sunflower industry, current growers can support the research necessary to keep the industry moving forward.

“This is a small crop, and because it doesn’t have the acres, the large corporations of the world don’t put a lot of research money into it. That’s up to the sunflower Check-off.”

According to Bonhorst, 80 percent of Checkoff dollars go to the Agriculture Re-search Station (ARS) in Fargo, N.D. Over

the years the ARS plant geneticists have de-veloped more disease resistant varieties that are resistant to some broadleaf herbicides.

“We want people to plant sunflowers and are working to make this crop as competi-tive as other crops,” Bonhorst says.

Bonhorst’s passion doesn’t end with pro-moting the sunflower industry. Along with the Oilseed Council, he is a past president of the Corn Utilization Council and cur-rently serves as chairman of the ag policy committee for the National Sunflower Association and South Dakota Cattlemen’s Association.

“Someone once told me that ‘those who show up make the rules,’” Bonhorst says. “If I can share one message with other farmers, it’s to get involved. If we don’t show up as an industry, the environmental

A tender, aroma-filled comfort food with a taste twist and a refreshing, colorful, tangy salad took top prizes in this year’s South Dakota

Beef Cook-Off during the recent State Fair in Huron. The winning entrées, Roast Beef Caribbean Style and Citrus Steak Salad, were indicative of the variety of dishes created by home cooks and featuring one of 29 lean beef cuts.

Susan Patrick, Watertown, topped her six competi-tors in the Cook-Off’s adult division—and took home $500 cash—with a chuck shoulder pot roast prepared in a cast iron Dutch oven. What set this recipe apart, said CattleWomen Cook-Off Chair Karla Pazour, was a braising mixture of interesting ingredients including ginger, habanero peppers, and cinnamon. “This is not your grandmother's pot roast,” said Pazour. “It has a subtle island-taste that still allows the beef flavor to be prominent. Roast Beef Caribbean Style proves that beef can fit into modern cuisines." Patrick, Lincoln Elemen-tary school principal said she used peppers from her brother-in-law’s garden. “If you prefer less heat,” she advises “use jalapeno instead of habanero or peppers to your taste.”

On the lighter side, 15-year-old Michaela DeWald of Milbank put together her beef salad and the winning combination in the youth division against five other en-trants, taking home a $250 cash prize. This ninth grader at Milbank High School is no novice when it comes to cooking. She won the Cook-Off’s youth division two years ago with her Western Beef and Corn Casse-role. She said she enjoyed this particular recipe, which included top sirloin steak, strawberries, goat cheese and Romaine lettuce. “I liked working with the various food groups,” said Michaela, adding that she has polished her competitive cooking skills through her involvement with the 4-H program’s Special Foods contests.

“Youth are our consumers of tomorrow,” said Pazour. “It is always amazing how capable our youth contes-

tants are and the variety of recipes they come up with. This year, in addition to Michaela’s beef salad, we had everything in the youth division from a lasagna muffin to a complicated beef and spinach roll.”

For the second year in a row, the cook-off day also fea-tured the Beef Basket Challenge, a beef-cooking contest between two celebrity South Dakotans. This year, Holly Hoffman, of TV’s Survivor fame, and her South Dakota legislator husband, Charlie Hoffman, vied against one another in a one-hour contest to see who could create the best beef entrée with a basket of surprise ingredi-ents, including beef flank steak, provided them at the start of the contest. With spectators cheering them on, the Hoffman’s, from Eureka, SD, bantered back and forth while slicing, dicing and cooking. Charlie’s braised flank steak won over his wife’s grilled beef kabobs in a People’s Choice award.

“The Beef Cook-Off and the Beef Basket Challenge ultimately encourages the consumer to be more com-

fortable trying new beef recipes,” says Pazour. “And this year’s theme of ’29 Lean Cuts of Beef ’ provided an opportunity to prove that there is a healthy beef cut and recipe for every meal solution.”

Patrick, the adult division winner, says her family eats a lot of beef and enjoy coming up with unique ways to use less expensive cuts like the chuck shoulder roast that pack a lot of taste and flexibility. While she and her husband, Jim, compete in outdoor cook-offs with their turn-of-the-century chuck wagon, this was the first time she entered the South Dakota Beef Cook-Off. “It was truly a surprise and an honor to win,” said Patrick.

The South Dakota Beef Cook-Off and Beef Basket Challenge are hosted by the South Dakota Cattle-Women and funded by South Dakota beef producers through Beef Checkoff Dollars. For a complete list of winners and recipes from the 2011 South Dakota Beef Cook-Off to www.sdbeef.org.

of the Year by the South Dakota Beef Cattle Improvement Association and the American International Charolais As-sociation.

In 2009, Wienk and his wife, Carol were inducted into the American International Charolais Association Hall of Fame.

A true family operation, Wienk’s five daughters, Deb Vedvei, Kim Jensen, Peggy Nolz, Jody Eschenbaum and Amy Bailey were all actively involved in the

day-to-day operations of raising cattle and feedstuffs.

“It’s always fun getting to work with your family. When the girls were growing up, I’d joke that I was a supporter of Wom-en’s Liberation because I let them work on the farm,” Wienk said.

Four of Wienk’s five daughters and their families are still involved in the livestock industry. Three have operations within 2 miles of the farm Wienk was born and raised on.

The family has been actively involved

in 4-H and supported 4-H, FFA and collegiate judging teams for several years. 2011 will mark 45 years that the Wienk family have shown livestock at the South Dakota State Fair. Recognized for their dedication, in 2008 Wienk and his wife, Carol received the SDSU Friend of the Beef Industry Award at the SDSU Beef Bowl.

Born and raised in Lake Preston, Wienk continues the tradition of community involvement his grandfather began. His grandfather was a charter member of the local agriculture cooperative and helped

dig out South Dakota’s first swimming pool with teams of horses. Wienk has served on several community boards including; the United Church of Christ, the school board and Lake Preston Co-op Board; his family has hosted numerous SDSU, FFA and 4-H judging schools, 28 Foreign Exchange Students and livestock producers from across the United States and Internationally.

“I want to do what I can to keep our community going. Do things that will help make it stronger and improve the way things are,” Wienk said.

groups and non-ag groups will make all the rules. And, we won’t like them.”

Making every drop count

The same moisture issues that make sun-flowers a good choice on Bonhorst’s acres strongly influence his management deci-sions.

With the average annual precipitation for Hughes County at about 15 inches, and only 240 acres of irrigated cropland, Bon-horst relies on no-till farming practices to conserve moisture.

“We used to only be able to raise a dryland crop three out of every 10 years. Twenty-five years of no-tilling, and we consistently

raise 100 to 120 bushel an acre corn every year.”

Along with conserving moisture and im-proving his soil’s organic matter and overall health, he adds that no-tilling is an efficient labor practice.

“I farm 5,000 acres and I do it myself with a planter, drill, sprayer and combine. That’s what no-till and technology allows me to do,” Bonhorst says.

He jokes that during severe drought years, his cattle stepped in to ensure that nothing goes to waste.

“The cattle compliment this farming opera-tion very well. When there is less than ideal rainfall, and if a crop doesn’t actually make grain, I can cut it for silage or bale it.”

Where’s the Beef?

It’s On Wheel of Fortune

Thanks to the dauntless efforts of a small band of beef-loving vol-unteers in South Dakota, lucky

Wheel of Fortune contestants this winter may be heading home with the means to purchase $1,000 each in T-Bones, Sirloins and burgers.

Beginning January 9, $1,000 in Beef Bucks—pre-paid checks and or VISA® debit card for purchasing beef at restau-rants or grocery stores—will appear as one of the gift tags on the colorful carnival wheel that contestants spin for prizes dur-ing the popular nationally syndicated pro-gram. Landing a spot for Beef Bucks on the infamous Wheel of Fortune was an effort in tenacity and dedication for the people who direct Beef Bucks, Inc., the non-profit South Dakota-based organization whose primary purpose is to promote beef and educate consumers on beef nutrition and cooking.

“We were pretty excited when we received the call in August from the people at Wheel of Fortune,” said Bob Montross, beef producer, farmer and one of the eight Beef Bucks, Inc. directors. “They told us that our Beef Bucks had been selected as one of the gift tags contestants can win. We knew then that we had made the big time.”

Roast Beef CaRiBBean styleby Susan Patrick, Watertown (Adult Division Winner)Step One:

2 ½ lbs. chuck shoulder pot roast4 garlic cloves, cut each in half2 tablespoons olive oil½ tsp. Rick’s Salt, ½ tsp. pepper, 1 tsp.

chopped garlicCross cut roast and push garlic clove halves

INTO roast (remove after cooking).Rub roast with olive oil and sprinkle the roast

with Rick’s Salt and pepper. Rub chopped garlic on the outside of roast.

Sear roast in additional olive oil (using high heat).

Step Two:In a bowl mix together braising mixture:One bunch green onions, slivered

2” piece of fresh ginger minced or ½ tsp. ground ginger

1 Tbsp. thyme leaves (rolled and cut fine if fresh)

1 tsp. ground allspice1 tsp. cinnamon1 tsp. ground nutmeg (less if fresh)2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper2 or 3 habanero or jalapeno peppers, diced &

seedless (wear gloves for this part)2 or 3 garlic cloves chopped finely2 Tbsp. DARK brown sugar½ cup soy sauce (regular or low sodium)½ cup lime juice½ cup corn oil (or other vegetable or olive oil)Add ½ (or more) of the braising mixture to

the seared roast in a roasting pan (I use a cast iron Dutch oven). Depending upon the size of the pan and the fit of the roast in the pan, it is important to have the bot-tom surface of the pan covered at a depth of about 1”. Add 3 Tbsp. more directly on top of the roast. (It is important to reserve some mixture for later and not have roast “swimming”!)

Bake at 300 degrees for 2 hours. Remove roast from oven and add 3 Tbsp. more of the mixture on the top of the roast. If the mixture on the bottom of the pan has reduced to less than 1”, add enough mix-ture to bring it back to the 1” level on the surface. Reduce heat to 250 degrees and bake for 2 additional hours. Remove the pan from oven. Let it set in the pan for 10 minutes without any heat. Remove meat from pan and remove the garlic cloves. Let the roast rest for 10 minutes on the cutting board before slicing. Slice and place on serving platter.

Serving: Splash 1Tbsp. of braising mixture across each slice/serving. Garnish with lime.*Allowing the meat to marinate in braising mixture over-night will tenderize even the tougher cuts of beef. If you marinate overnight, remove it from marinade and wipe it with olive oil and then sear it and place it in a roasting pan with fresh braising mixture and follow all of the steps listed above.

two years ago as he watched an episode of the longest-running syndicated game show in U.S. television history. “I thought, ‘If we could get Beef Bucks as a prize on Wheel of Fortune, we could be promoting beef to millions across the country’,” recalls Bob. Several persuasive phone calls and e-mails later, Bob was supplying the Wheel of Fortune pro-ducers with both the official Beef Bucks logo to be placed on the large wheel and a commitment to provide $1,000 worth of the beef-buying currency for any contestant who lands on the Beef Bucks tag on up to three separate shows.

Getting Beef Bucks on Wheel of Fortune is certainly a coup for this organization that began in 1997 in the small South Dakota town of De Smet. However, those who know the people involved with Beef Bucks, including Bob and his wife Nancy, are not surprised. "Bob and Nancy Montross are the ‘Ambassadors of Beef ’,” said Tom Das-chle, former U.S. Senator and Senate Majority Leader from South Dakota. “No one anywhere has ever done a better job of promoting beef. I am thrilled, but certainly not sur-prised, that Wheel of Fortune is now part of their efforts. I fully expect that some President, some day, will include Beef Bucks in their ‘State of the Union’ message, too.”

Senator Daschle said he has personally experienced Bob and Nancy's dedicated efforts to promote the beef industry in many ways, “including attending events on their South Dakota farm, listening to them speak passionately about the industry they love, receiving telephone calls from early morning to late at night, and, of course, using Beef Bucks myself!" While serving as Senator, Daschle also submitted recipes that are included in two Beef Bucks Recipe Collec-tions.

To date, Beef Bucks, Inc. has sold more than $1 million worth of its beef-only checks and reloadable VISA debit cards which are backed by two financial institutions. The Beef Bucks have been used, said Nancy, in more than 40 states. The organization also has a web site (www.beef-bucks.org), a blog, a dedicated phone number (1-888-640 MEAT), and a continuing desire to sell the product they love to raise. “We wanted to have a convenient and fun

method of purchasing beef at the retail level and something

that could be given easily as gifts,” she explains. “Beef

Bucks have done just that.”

And now, the idea that began among fellow beef producers

and beef industry people in cowboy country will be broad-

cast across the country—and beyond. Bob says they’ve been told that the first show to be aired in January has already been taped, but they’ll have to wait until January 9 to see if any lucky player gets to take home the $1,000 in Beef Bucks during that first program. “We’re hoping,” says Bob. “We’ll just have to wait like everyone else to find out.”
